HURRICANE UPDATE
Indian Rocks Beach is coming back strong after the 2024 Hurricane Season, and our Beautiful Condo at West Coast Vista is no exception. Our beach access and view is much-improved, we are remodeling our pool, new furniture is on order - including more and upgraded chaise lounges, tables, chairs, picnic tables, a charcoal grill and a bike-rack. We also have a new fenced-in sandy beach that sits within our fenced property, so your kids can enjoy paying on our beaches within eye-shot of your pool-side chaise lounge. We expect all amenities to be fully-restored by December 31st.
WELCOME TO WEST COAST VISTA!
Your perfect vacation home awaits in this Penthouse condo, located directly on the Gulf of Mexico and right across Gulf Blvd from the intercoastal waterway with unobstructed views and access to both!
See Florida's world-class beaches and waterways from every window in this top-floor condo.

The three spacious bedrooms are perfectly equipped, and a large living room and cozy reading nook provide lots of space for your party to enjoy this idyllic Florida lifestyle. You're going to love morning coffee in our modern kitchen with granite counters and warm-wood finishes, and lunch on the veranda - or poolside in our community's private pool - will make your time with us truly special. Want to escape the heat of the sun for a spell? Curl up with a book in our reading nook and while away the afternoon before heading back out to gather shells and watch the sunset.

The property received glowing reviews highlighting the beautiful beach, amazing views, comfortable accommodations, two balconies, well-equipped kitchen, and attentive owners.
5.0
Great condo with convenient location without being in the high traffic areas and the beach was never crowded! Felt very local and laid back. Condo has TWO balconies where you can watch the sunRISE & sunSET! We loved that everyday. Great access to the pool and beach. Also loved no stairs and having plenty of space in the condo.
5.0
Perfect location, the most beautiful sunsets, great place to relax/retreat. REST. QUIET. TRANQUILITY.
No issues checking in a little early. Excellent communication with Peter.
5.0
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Peter was very responsive to our questions and made our vacation worry-free!
5.0
Our stay was fantastic. We were so happy with the views from both balconies. The condo itself is well maintained and stocked with just about everything we needed. We added a few extra beach chairs since there was 6 of us staying.
Check in was smooth once we found the elevator access keys and figured out which elevator to take. It is spelled out in the check-in notes what elevator to take, but being unfamiliar with the building, it took us a minute to figure it out.
Parking is a little tight, but that's the case for most condos there with underneath parking like that.
I would recommend this condo and look forward to coming back again.
5.0
It was everything that we wanted. Very clean. Perfect for our family. We loved the two balconys. So close to everything but not too touristy.
5.0
This place was as advertised. Best things - well stocked with kitchenware, towels, etc. & owners communicated & took care of issues quickly (the hall toilet was running when we got there & it was fixed in a couple days). Also, beds were comfortable & A/C worked great - important after all day on the beach. We liked that there was a balcony facing the Gulf & facing the Intracoastal Waterway & beach access is great. Beach stuff is hit or miss so you may need to go to Walmart or Beach Zone & get supplies. And wifi not great (couldn't pick up on beach balcony) but good enough to watch streaming services on all TVs & worked fine inside. Bottom line - we recommend & would stay again.

We had a great time with our boys (8 and 11 years old)! The beach is beautiful and peaceful.

Had a great time- loved the balconies! The beach was perfect.
3.0
The location is definitely a positive aspect. On one side, there's the sea with its beautiful beach, and on the other side, the equally fascinating hinterland.
Unfortunately, the apartment doesn't reflect this almost perfect ambiance. For the price paid, one would expect more. Everything seems a bit run-down and worn-out. The cleanliness also leaves something to be desired. After we complained, the cleaning lady came immediately, but even this additional visit wasn't enough to clean the apartment to a standard worthy of the price. We would seek accommodation in this area again, but will likely avoid this apartment.

PERFECT! AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL VIEWS! WONDERFUL CONDO! My husband and I travel a lot and have visited many beaches and stayed in many condos. The simplicity of this place was better than expected. 2 balconies, perfect size, stocked amazingly! The owners go above and beyond. I feel like some people nitpick this place on other reviews but I guess everyone’s opinion is different. We had the best little vacation and a huge part is because of this place. Close to everything, not crowded! Already looking for dates to come down during fall break! I’d give this place and its owners more stars if I could!
5.0
Indian Rocks Beach is one of the best! The Condo was exactly as pictured, beautiful, comfortable, and very clean. We loved the layout, grandparents at one end, parents at the other end and grandchildren in the middle bedroom. The east and west facing balconies provided spectacular sunrises and sunsets every day. The pool provided wonderful entertainment for our grandchildren each afternoon. Our stay was amazing for our entire family!

- Great location close to restaurants
- Living room furniture asnd beds are good
- Small complex is quiet and relaxing
Cons:
- New dining room chairs and balcony furniture is uncomfortable

Great property and location front and rear water views. Would definitely return
4.0
The views are the star of this condo. The location is perfect. The condo has two balconies with a view of the gulf and a view of the intracoastal waterway. We enjoyed the sunrise and sunset.
Pros:
The owner is great to work with and responded to us right away. The beds are comfortable and there were plenty of towels in the bathrooms. The kitchen was equipped with dish soap, hand soap and coffee pods for the Keurig. The pool is heated and the chairs for relaxing around the pool are comfortable. Parking is good with private elevator access to the condo.
Cons:
The unit was not clean in places. There was popcorn under the sofa cushions and the cushions were dirty. The floor in the hallway bathroom was not clean. However the owner sent out the cleaning crew the next day and they washed the sofa cushions and cleaned the bathroom.
The hallway bathroom needs to have the very old tub replaced and the shower water pressure is very low. .
The furniture on the balconies needs to be replaced.
The condo is old and needs to be remolded.
The condo association needs to fix the chipped tiles and concrete around the pool. Corrosion on the balcony hand rail brackets isa safety issue.
5.0
Perfect location right on the beach and walking distance to many restaurants. Accommodations were exactly as described. Throughly enjoyed our stay would stay there again.
5.0
Perfect space for what we needed especially with adult kids. There was ample space on rain day to separate a bit, Great location and wonderful views. The two balconies provided two entirely different views. We saw 🐬 dolphins from the Gulf balcony! Very exciting!
I do wish there was shampoo/conditioner like a hotel would have. The parking lot was a little weird but I worked through it and street pkg was good. Couches were a bit worn but fine…. To sleep on not so great according to 1 of our guests.
Italian restaurant closest to condo was great.
Over good experience. We needed more sunny warm days but that’s not on the condo!;-)
5.0
The weather was cooler than expected but the pool was heated so we still enjoyed it. The condo is very nice and private.
5.0
The property is in one of our favorite locations in the Indian rocks beach area. The unique nature of the house is you have a view of both the bay and the beach. There are many restaurants at a walkable distance and the traffic wasn’t bad too. We had a great time and my son had fun on the beach!
5.0
Not fancy, but very clean and no problems. We had bad weather but made the best of it. Beach chairs and umbrellas provided were nice though we didn’t get to use them. Restaurant reviews? Sure! Villa Gallace was fantastic! Salt Rock Grill, JD’s, and Cafe de Paris were all delicious.

We had a fabulous week in your beautiful condo. Only set backs were it wasn't as clean as it should have been. We went out and bought cleaning supplies to clean sliders and bathrooms. Also toliet in master is way too low to ground.
5.0
Great views from two balconies of gulf and inter-coastal from top floor end unit.
Nicely updated condo.
Peter was great to work with when unexpected beach restoration with heavy construction equipment closed the beach. He is very prompt and professional to deal with. We would stay again on future visit.
5.0
For a family of 6 this was perfect! Love IRB and the areas around it. Amazing stay on the beach with a wonderful pool. Well kept property and amazing host. Will be coming back soon!
5.0
The condo was wonderful..Master bedroom toilet REALLY needs to be upgraded and higher. Toilet was very low! The walk to beach was short however the step down needs attention. Either another step added or sand brought in. We had to divert our path and walk along the edge. Enjoyed the week and will return

Restful

The double balcony is certaintly a plus especially during the summer. The furniture is not ideal for older adults and individuals with back problems. Very low toilet seat in the master bath.
5.0
Loved having two balconies over looking both Gulf and the Intercoastal. Very unique to this area and something we've never experienced. Allowed privacy between us and our older 20+ children. Great rooms, fantastic location. Close to local fair and not far at all to Parasail at John's Pass. Felt like we had the beach and pool to ourselves given we went a bit later in the year than we normally do. If we all travel again, we'll try hard to get this condo again. Super convenient to have he elevator open right at the front door as well.

Our stay at West Coast Vista in July 2023 was truly one of our most relaxing and enjoyable beach vacations ever. Our family has been renting beach condos up and down the Gulf coast for about 15 years now and this unit was by far our overall favorite. First off it is very large and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Second is the choice of 2 waterfront balconies - watch the sunrise over the intracoastal in the morning and then enjoy gorgeous sunsets over the Gulf on the beachfront balcony. Being a penthouse unit, there was no noise in this condo from people walking on the floors above you. The rear staircase down to the pool and beach was super convenient. The pool was very clean and the beaches at Indian Rocks Beach are pristine - white sands and crystal clear waters. Honestly though, it was the little things that made this stay really enjoyable. They might sound trivial, but after staying at more than a dozen properties on the beach, it does make a difference. The keyless entry system is huge - you're not having to worry about keeping track of keys and passing them among everyone to gain access. There were tons of towels - beach and bathroom towels. In-unit full-sized washer & dryer along with a large utility room was really nice. Plenty of hangers in the closets and hooks on the bathroom walls for towels, swimsuits, etc, along with extra TP, soaps, garbage bags, etc. Unit was super clean and we will be back for sure! Thank you for a great vacation!

This property is exactly as advertised!! Clean, spacious, comfortable, with beautiful views of both the intercoastal and the ocean. It was so great to walk right out and be at the pool and right at the beach. So convenient especially when kids are involved! We did not have any issues while we were there so I didn’t have any need to contact the property owner, but communication about check in/out was clear and timely. Also walkable to several restaurants in the area, and easy to drive to St. Pete and Clearwater areas which we did for dinner one night and a dolphin boat tour for another. We can’t wait to come back! Parking area is tight (you do have a designated space) but wouldn’t recommend renting a giant SUV to get in and out of there.

The view was beautiful. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.
5.0
The rental was perfect for our family of 4 - two adults and two teens. The condo was clean and spacious. We loved the easy access to the beach and pool, plus all of the beach towels, toys, chairs, and umbrellas. Plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance, while the beach was quiet and not crowded at all in front of the condo. Beautiful views from both balconies. We loved our stay and would definitely book this rental again. Thank you!

Beautiful, quiet location on the beach - great for young kids!

the place was amazing!! With both balconies we could see the sunrise and the sunset and it was well stocked with plenty of towels and pots and pans and everything that you could need and we had a beautiful beach just steps away.
5.0
Wow, we absolutely loved this property! Really appreciated the location in proximity to the beach and walkability to restaurants and shops. Peter was so good about answering my questions before the trip and also while we were at the property. Plenty of room for all 5 adults to spread out and the place was very clean and well appointed. Loved having the beach towels, chairs, umbrellas waiting for us at this location. Restaurant recommendations from Peter were spot on. Don't miss Villa Gallace, Keegan's, Café De Paris during your stay. Took the family jet skiing at John's Pass and enjoyed a day with shops and restaurants there. We saw a manatee swimming in the ocean just outside the place on Thursday during our stay. What an amazing experience. We will be back, as the relaxed atmosphere of this area to Destin is right up our alley.

This is our second time staying in this building, first time in this unit. We love the views of the ocean and the inter-coastal. We did a ton of walks down to the restaurants about 1/2 mile away. Saw lots of dolphins. The host was great about communicating. Loved having laundry in unit especially with two young kids. Nice assortment of beach towels and toys there. The pack & play probably needs replacing but other than that everything was well stocked, clean, and a great location for our family vacation.
5.0
Our family loved this condo. It was much quieter than many other neighborhoods in the area, and the deck overlooked thick trees and an uncrowded beach. The condo itself was spacious and clean. We would love to come back!
