Location and Value for Money
This property needs updating, badly, and a deep clean. However, it was clean enough, the beds were comfortable with nice sheets, and as described (2 queens), and you can see the Gulf from the deck. The walk to the beach is literally one minute. And it's a beautiful beach, and not crowded and crazy like Clearwater or St. Pete Beach. If you have smaller children the beach is full of tide pools for the little ones to play in.
The check in and out was easy, and they don't ask you to do a lot of stuff that makes you wonder why you also are paying a cleaning fee.
There are great restaurants, coffee with excellent baked goods, and convenience stores within 2 miles. We can recommend Salt Rock Grill, Caddy's and Indian Shores Coffee. There is also a mini golf place within walking distance that looked really fun.
The supplies that are provided are very slim pickings. If staying longer than a couple of days you will need to buy paper products (paper towels and TP), food prep and storage items (tinfoil, ziplocs), and extra trash bags. There was some coffee and filters, also a Keurig knockoff, cooking oil, and spices. There were no beach towels, coozies, or cold drink tumblers, but we left a couple there for future use. There is a small cooler. We didn't cook much but there were decent pots and pans and utensils available. The beach chairs and umbrella provided could have been a lot better.
Overall, if you are on a budget but want a great location, this property is recommended.
