Great location!

This place is perfect if you have a car! Private, quiet, and right at the beach! This place was great for our small family! The king size bed was comfortable and had a somewhat firm mattress. My daughter loved the queen size bed, though it would have been way too soft for me. We did not use the twin bed. There are lots of beach toys for kids! There are plenty of beach chairs. The beach was empty by our standards which was a nice bonus! We were lucky enough to find lots of sand dollars and the gulf water temps were 89 degrees! Dolphins and manatees swam by. The outside table was nice since it was shady and we always had a nice breeze blowing through! We did not do much cooking at the house, but there appeared to be plenty of kitchen items to do so. The water pressure in the kitchen is very low, but there is a dishwasher available. We found if the faucet was in ‘spray’ mode, it worked a little better. We enjoyed our meals in nearby Indian Rocks Beach, a short 10 minute drive. Clearwater is about 10 minutes north, Indian Rocks about 10 minutes south. Groceries are about 10 minutes away also. Parking at the house is easy and with assigned spots, there was never a worry of parking. The Jolly Trolley goes by the house, but I did not see a stop very close. We visited in the summer which is off season, so getting around by car was fairly easy. Overall I would recommend this place to others!

Best vacation home on the beach

Looking for a cozy cottage on the beach? This is the one! With its beach decor charm with 1 full bathroom and 1/2 plus washer and dryer amenities and access to the beach my family loved staying here. The owner met us as we pulled into the driveway. Randy was delightful and was there if we needed anything. No need to bring anything, It is all there from having a beach wagon, beach chairs, canopy, sand toys, and even sand roll out mats. The living room and both bedrooms had smart TVs for those rainy days for inside activities. Looking forward to staying here on future Belleair Beach vacations.

Great little stay on the beach

My family of four stayed and loved how close the beach was! Beautiful! If you’re looking for a less crowded beach this is it. But also very close to all the restaurants and shopping, etc. Cottage is just how described…we hope to come back!

Charming older cottage right by the beach!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - perfect for our simple needs. Queen bed is a little softer than we're accustomed to, but also futon not shown in listing which helped for 5 adults and 1 baby. Appreciated covered outdoor area to extend our outdoor time in midday. Will stay again!

Great week at the beach!

The property was as described. Great location, short walk to the beach, able to see ocean from unit. Really good value for our girls' week at the beach. Unit had stocked kitchen, beach chairs and umbrella which made it very convenient. Owner was there for part of the week and was very friendly and helpful.

Older Quaint beach cottage

Perfect location right on the beach. Cottage is older and could use some updates. Queen size mattress needs to be replaced as they have a foam topper on it. Ceiling fan blades in family room need to be cleaned.

Beach Lovers Paradise

If you love being on the beach everyday and love beach wildlife - this is the spot you should rent. Loved the experience of this tasteful cottage on Belleair Beach. We could hear the waves from our patio. I'm a walker and journeyed out daily to walk Sand Key Bridge and Belleair Beach to soak up the bay views. Our host was amazing and checked on us to see if we had any needs. They provide beach chairs/umbrella and even wagon to load up all items - 50 steps later your on the beach Kitchen was very well stocked with utensils, extra spices, paper towels, pots/pans. Internet was fast so my son could work right from the large patio. This unit is private too. I never heard anything from neighbors or upstairs at all. Will be back.

Disappointing

I don't understand any higher ratings for this property. The location is right on the beach. It was sort of a dingy dated place, cluttered w cheap beach decor and pealing beach stickers on the walls. The microwave is rusty. The water pressure in the kitchen is low. The shower is extremely small, with broken dated tiles, and old rusty handles. The single bed is actually a cot. There was a toenail in the bed when we pulled back the blankets. Nothing about this place felt cozy. We've used vrbo for years...before the app and we've never been disappointed, until now.

Randy was a very gracious host.

The pictures online line depict the property ok however it could used a renovation and that is lost in the pics. When they say steps to the beach access it’s true. The beds were too soft for my preference but we slept well and had no back issues. The water pressure in the bathroom is great! Its quite and relaxing. It’s actually 1 1/2 baths but having a washer and dryer to bring clean laundry home was a plus. If we return to Clearwater we will look up this property to see if it’s available.

We absolutely LOVED the proximity of this place to A.) The Beach, B) Clearwater and C) The PIE airport. It couldn't have been more convenient. It's not the most high-end place...has some wear and tear, but it was perfect for us.
