Great location/distance to the beach, restaurants, and entertainment! The condo was very clean, neatly organized, and came fully furnished with everything and more that we needed. It also came with additional beach chairs, pool toys, and towels if needed. The decor was beautiful and it was very quiet! We definitely will revisit and would HIGHLY recommend to others!!

Overall we enjoyed the condo and the location. The property manager was unhelpful in assisting with parking passes and cleaning up clumps of hair from previous tenants. The condo itself looks like the description online. The owners left a sweet welcome note with snacks and a bottle of chardonnay. The short walk to the beach was so convenient!

My husband had a trade show to attend in Tampa, and we wanted to stay on the beach so we found this place and it was awesome. We have never stayed on the gulf side and we really loved it, especially the white sand and sunsets. The condo was very clean and well equipped. Comfy furniture, nice balcony, wonderful shower. Lovely small complex, and we loved it!
5.0 / 5.0
We absolutely loved everything about our stay. The decor and furnishings were well appointed with a beachy flair. Impeccably clean with a very comfortable bed and well-equipped kitchen! We didn't use our rental car at all. Steps from everything we needed: grocery store, restaurants, beach bars, cute shops and the beach! Best beach in the nation! We can't wait to return this little slice of paradise. Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

Very nice place only complaint is that I wasn’t sent a parking pass to print out until I called when arrived at night I didn’t have a printer and the bed squeezed.

The condo was very clean and had all of the amenities that we needed. There were a few beach chairs and an umbrella. It was great to have the washing machine so that we could wash items after the beach. It was walking distance to quite a few restaurants and the grocery store. We would definitely stay here again!
3.0 / 5.0
Nice place, lacked communication about what parking spot was assigned, how or where to get a parking pass, how to get the code to get to the beach. Check out is 10am, but someone coming at 10:01 knocking to tell me it's check out time is a little much.

This condo is so cute and has everything you may need! While it isn't a beachfront condo, the comfort and coziness of the condo were worth the entire stay!

My husband and I rented this condo to celebrate our birthdays. The place was immaculate and very well decorated. The condo had beach chairs, hard and soft cooler, and umbrella so we didn't have to buy anything. She even had the basic seasonings and oil spray which helped us even more. But the final touch that really made me wow was a Welcome Gift Basket in the Kitchen with a note from the owner welcoming us to the condo. She had a bottle of wine, 2 seltzer waters, coffee and other little items. That was a very nice touch. Great place, and great area, walking distance to a small mini mall which had stores and restaurants. We will definitely go back here. I rate this place 10 Stars!

We have stayed at Gulf Strand in the past and this particular condo was way better! It was very clean, had cute decor, and was stocked with everything we needed. It’s right on the beach and they provided beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and more. The welcome basket was awesome. We would stay here again!

While the property building itself doesn`t look glamorous, the owners have done a beautiful job updating and up keeping this rental. The inside is calm, beachy, and very clean. The balcony was a perfect touch to be able to sit outside after a day at the beach. The beach was so close and made it easy to run back to if we needed anything. The local amenities within a 5 minute walk (Publix, CVS, restaurants) were a great bonus considering we didn`t take a car. We did need to communicate with the rental company at one point based on a personal request and when texting the number in the binder, they were very responsive and willing to assist. Would stay here again.

This property is great for a beach vacation. Everything you could need is supplied and if you run out of anything, stores are directly across the street. Appreciated the fact there was a washer and dryer in the condo! Rental company immediately replied to my only question even on a Sunday. Would definitely recommend to others. Thanks!

The Condo was set-up to be a home away from home. Sugary sand beach! The location is excellent for walking distance to lots of great restaurants and grocery.

I stayed in this condo for the month of Jan 2021. The location is amazing! Right on the beach with great restaurants, grocery store, drug store, and everything you need within a 5 min walk. We didn’t even need to rent a car during our stay. Upon check-in, the condo was sparkling clean and beautifully decorated to fit the area’s beachy vibe. 6 out of 5 stars and will be coming back!

This Place Was Perfect for Our Family
This place was perfect for our family! The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have the two bathrooms, especially the bathtub for the kids. Also, it was awesome to get laundry done with the washer and dryer in the unit. Beautiful place to wake up to and loved the welcome basket and Keurig machine! Easy access to pool and the beach! Two small downsides were the floors were dirty (they made our feet dirty) and more trash bags for the kitchen. Overall, awesome stay and would do it again in a heartbeat!

Wow, just wow. What a PERFECT experience!
My 3.5 year-old-daughter and I spent 3 nights at this beautiful condo, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. The beachfront access and pool made it easy for us to enjoy our stay without traveling everyday or paying for parking in a beach lot. The condo is redone beautifully, with so many amenities. The washer and dryer made it easy to clean up our bathing suits and beach towels, the kitchen was fully equipped, and the care basket we found upon our arrival was such a sweet touch. My little absolutely loved sorting through the snacks, not to mention the on demand function on the tv so we could watch bluey every night. This seriously is the best place for a getaway. 11/10 would recommend!!

Two-Year Anniversary Trip
A wonderful getaway and exotic slice of luxury, this condo`s relaxing color scheme, fully furnished living and dining areas, and plethora of amenities made it easy to relax and enjoy our vacation. It was technology friendly, and the complimentary gift basket added a unexpected but personal touch

Our stay was delightful! Perfectly located within walking distance of all sorts of things. There was a slight hiccup trying to make initial entry to the unit but Jeff and Gina quickly resolved our issue.

Perfect in every way
Beautiful, updated condo steps from the beach. It had everything we needed and more. We had no car and we’re able to walk or take Freebie everywhere with no problem. We have stayed in a few condos here and this one is our favorite by far. The bed was very comfortable and the ceiling fans helped a lot cooling it down. The welcome basket was very sweet and made us happy we made the decision to stay here. It’s obvious the owners care about their renters and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. It was very clean as well and smelled great upon entering. Thanks for a great vacation!

Great Vacation Property
The condo was lovely! I was nervous about the pull out couch. It was very comfortable, a nice surprise!
Kitchen was equipped with everything necessary to cook. Washer and dryer were a great amenity! Having two bathrooms was HUGE!
We loved our stay!!

Beautiful condo , great location
We really enjoyed our stay. Condo was clean, open and airy with a nice Florida vibe!
Location is great if you like being in the heart of things and steps to beach.
View is ok with some ocean view. Parking lot & road are busy. View offers great people watching ! We liked that the building was not huge making it easy to get back and forth to pool, beach & etc easily. We would stay again !

Nicely decorated unit
Reservations went smoothly as well as easy check in procedure and instructions.
Unit 207 at Gulf Strand is situated closer to the road with balconies overlooking public beach parking lot and street. You can see the ocean over the seagrass from one end of the balcony.
If you want a great view from your unit, this is probably not for you, but if you want a nicely appointed, easy access place that is nicely decorated and many amenities, this is a great place to call home for a stay.
Our unit was equipped with a small washer & dryer, beach chairs, cooler, umbrella and beach towels which made beach days very convenient.
The place was pretty clean although could use some definitive cleaning/dusting which I left a note for the cleaning service when we left.
I would definitely stay here again, although a beach front unit would be great too. We visited a beach front unit when we met a couple there and it wasn't as nice as our unit but the view was great.
You can't beat the location with Publix, Walgreens, CVS, cafes, restaurants all within walking distance. We took many beach walks as well as neighborhood walks and really enjoyed the area. Maybe someday we will retire and spend more time in St.petersberg/Tampa area.
