The condo was perfect for our smaller group this year! We love the area, as we have returned to Indian Shores again this year! The condo was clean, spacious, and well stocked with everything we could want or need! And, of course, the views were gorgeous! We were sad to leave this year, but plan to return!

This is an excellent property! The host, Dino, was extremely helpful and checked on us to make sure everything was as it should be. The unit was immaculate, even walking on the floors barefoot! I definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Overall, condo kept very well! Very clean! Proximity to all things “beach” including not only beach front access, but seafood restaurants galore! Craby Bills, PJ’s Oyster House, just to name a few with Caddy’s just across the street! Amenities in abundance making our stay very easy and inclusive to meet pretty much all our wants/needs to have a great family beach vacation! Highly recommend! Only drawback is parking if/when need more than a couple of spots (1-“designated” with multiple “guest” slots, just limited). Plan ahead for parking arrangements if need more than 2 or 3 slots.

This condo was perfect. Immaculate and very, very clean. The kitchen was fully stocked and we made cookies, paella, baked chicken, and margaritas. Dishwasher was more than adequate and so were the washer and dryer. Both bathrooms were spotless, convenient, and roomy. We used the owner's (Mr. Dino) beach closet on the deck and it was fully supplied with boogie boards, beach chairs, pails, crab nets, beach shovels, and umbrellas. We dried our wet suits on the clothesline provided on the balcony and enjoyed the sunsets in the lounge chairs. We ate several meals on the balcony table. The beds were comfortable with clean, crisp linens and comforters. It was chilly while there and we used the provided super soft plush throws. The furniture was plenty and the flat screens were easily marked with instructions and remotes. We returned to our state happy, rested, and ready to return again. Thank you! ;)

Jaco Bay condos are the perfect place to stay in Jaco. The setting is gorgeous yet close enough to walk to the beach. The condo had everything we needed and more… pool noodles, beach towels, chairs for the beach, plus a terrific water filter system so we didn’t feel the need to buy bottled water. We’d definitely stay here again.

This was a perfect spot for a family gathering. While we had abnormal temps for Christmas, the cold did did not phase our celebration. Wonderful to be right on the beach…we enjoyed it from the balcony and we enjoyed walking in the sand, Unit was very well equipped….especially the kitchen. Wonderful to have a washing machine too. I will come again😀

This was probably the cleanest condo, ever. There were a lot of instruction on how to work thinks which I was impressed, especially the TV remotes( that was great). Dino made sure I could contact him by text or e-mail. Except for the extreme heat, we had a great time in a great condo.

The condo was awesome. Perfect for our family of 6 adults. The fact that there were beach towels/chairs/toys was an added bonus. We loved the salt water pool (no burning eyes)! Dino was a great host keeping in touch from the time we rented to the time we checked out. He even let us know the condo was ready early. My one and only complaint which is extremely minor is that in the master only one side of the bed had an outlet. And in the living room only one chair was close to an outlet. This was a minor inconvenience for phone charging.

This was our first visit to Indian Shores and we will be back! The condo had everything we needed, including beach chairs and towels. We never waited long for an elevator and the beach and pool were only 1-2 minutes from our door. This condo was clean and had plenary of room for our family of 5. The sunsets from the balcony were amazing! Would recommend and would stay again.

Wonderful place wonderful views

Our family had a wonderful time! The weather was perfect, the ocean was so calm and just steps away from the condo! More than enough room for all of us, we loved sitting on the balcony in the evening looking over what shells we found. We mostly ate in at the condo but did order from across the street for dinner and it was delicious! Was nice to have everything you needed, stores and restaurants are so close and it was so easy to get around! We spent the day in clearwater & one day in st pete, took the kids to the zoo as well, and just relaxed on the beach 🙂 just wish we would have stayed longer! Dino was great host!

Beach Trip

Beach Trip

Pros- Location, we have stayed at various condos in Sand Castle I and love the location. The condo was very clean and well stocked as advertised. I also liked that there were 5 beds so each person in our family had their own bed. Cons- We had to make several trips to buy items that we normally have been provided in previous rentals. There were no paper towels or napkins, no laundry soap. This wasn’t major but definitely an inconvenience. The knives in the kitchen were extremely dull. Overall, we would stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay very much in Indian Shores at Sandcastle 1. The condo was beautiful and very well stocked with everything you might need. Providing beach towels was a huge blessing since they take up so much room in a suitcase. The beds and furniture was very comfortable. The view is incredible and there is so much to do in the area and wonderful Restaurants. And the Casino in Tampa is a short distance away if you like to gamble. We will definitely be back.

2022 Spring Break

We were very happy with our experience in IRB. The condo is in a great location for my family. We had dolphins and manatees swim through several times. This is a good location for a low-key quite part of the beach. Not a spring break party area, which is exactly what we were looking for.

My husband, two little boys and I enjoyed our stay at sandcastle 1. Check in and out were easy. Location is wonderful right between Johns pass and Clearwater. Dino was great to work with. Condo had everything one might need to enjoy a stay right on the beach. The only down side was tight parking for our big bus of a Yukon XL, but overall great stay! Highly recommend this unit.

Great views and space

Perfect location, beautiful views, clean pool. The unit was spacious with a large balcony including a table and chairs for 5-6. Fully stocked kitchen that accommodated our family of 6. Master bed was super comfortable! Dino was very communicative and responsive throughout our booking and stay...a gracious host! The issue with check-in was there were only 2 elevators and a few luggage carts. We had to find and wait for a cart, followed by waiting in line for the elevator. It took about an hour and a half just to get our luggage upstairs (6th floor). This was super inconvenient with 4 kids in tow. It seemed everyone was checking in at the same time, despite an early check in (3pm). Checking out was not an issue at all. Despite that, we would love to return next year!
