About this apartment rental
Storms are behind us and we're back to same as before.
Our condo is CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN! New a/c Aug 2023 BLOWING COLD . Our condo is the one with the American flag flying on the balcony out lined in yellow in our opening picture. Don't be fooled by other listings showing Vistas building and not outlining their condo which may not be a direct gulf front condo. No fooling around here, it's a TRUE GULF FRONT CONDO (not a side unit) with two balconies many recent upgrades and is the nicest and cleanest unit in the building. If you desire a direct gulf front unit this is what you want. Vistas on the Gulf is a 38 unit condo on St. Pete Beach. If you've never been here, the beach is a great place for families and couples quiet and relaxing. We are the original owners of unit 301 and spend 15- 18 weeks / year there, it has become our oasis and happy place! If you want clean, rent our unit. Our part of the beach is very quiet and not busy at all. You'll have plenty of area to distance from others at the beach as you can see from our pictures. Our gulf front view is just incredible, not only during the day, but look at our pictures to see some of the spectacular sunsets and rainbows we've seen! Evenings on the front balcony are special. Relax listening to the gentle sounds of waves rolling in.
The unique thing about our unit is that we have two balconies--a large balcony directly facing west to the beach and Gulf of Mexico. Another balcony is off the second bedroom and faces south. This view gives you a great pool view and a beautiful gulf view. One of the nice features of our condo, is that you can walk right out to the beach and can enjoy several beach restaurants/bars and never even have to put on your shoes! Getting around is easy without the expense of a rental car. Check out St Pete Beach FREE on-demand shuttle service. https://www.stpetebeach.org/273/Freebee-Shuttle-Service
Each unit is individually owned and we have added many personal touches. Master bedroom has a queen bed with a new (8/23) firm premium mattress and other bedroom has a bunk bed with stairs, twin mattress top / new (1/24) full size firm mattress bottom. The living room also has a new (8/23) queen sized sofa-sleeper and TCL brand smart TV, power leather recliner . As nice as the unit is, you'll most likely be enjoying the beautiful beach and weather outside! Air conditioning system recently installed (8/23). Everything in our unit operates as it should.
We deep clean, upgrade and replace items regularly during each of our 15 - 18 weeks we visit each year. We take great pride in our condo and believe in putting money back into it to keep it fresh, clean, updated and desirable. Just like you, we like staying in a clean updated well maintained condo when we vacation. We re invest in our condo continuously hoping that our guests have a wonderful experience. We love repeat guests. This is our happy place, let it be yours as well.

We came down to move our son into college & chose this area for our stay. This condo is beautiful with a direct beachfront view! The location was perfect & the condo is SO CLEAN! Something that’s extremely important for us. The beds were very comfortable, The rooms were perfectly sized & the bathrooms were spotless. The owner, Jim, was very responsive to our questions & accommodating to any of our requests. I would highly recommend this property. We will definitely be returning!!

This spot is one of the most perfect on the beach. Condo is perfect and in the perfect location. The beach isn’t busy like other spots down the road. We plan on definitely staying again once we come back to St. Pete Beach.

My family and I were very impressed by the cleanliness of the unit! I have no complaints! Just like home except WOW! I don’t get to open my front curtain and have a spectacular view! Plenty of furniture on the balcony, only wish it was high top and could enjoy the view even more. That would be my only suggestion. (Perhaps not permitted for safety reasons)
We had a great time and the owner and property assistants were wonderful!!

The property was a perfect location on St. Pete Beach. Communication with Jim was easy. The location was close to nearby restaurants, bars and shops. We had a fabulous trip!

Condo was really clean and the owner's were responsive to any questions we had. We also had the office located on the second floor if there were any concerns.
Location is great, plenty of fun areas within walking distance along the beach to grab a drink or a quick bit.
We even got to see dolphins along the beach from our window on our last day.

We brought the kids to St Pete for the first time to celebrate our Anniversary!
The Condo had everything we needed for indoor and outdoor living. It was nice to have beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler, that we didn’t have to purchase. We even added a boogie board to the collection. The balcony was our favorite with its stunning views of the beach and ocean. The kids loved having their own balcony too off their room.
We can’t wait to visit again!
One small request would to provide acrylic glassware and dinnerware for the kids and for use on the balconies.

Loved that the owner left chairs, umbrella,etc for our use and checked on us to make sure we were satisfied with and or needed anything. Would stay here again.

The condo is beautiful and the views of the beach are incredible! ❤️
It was the 4th of July and We watched fireworks happening on both ends of the beach while on the balcony. Spent evenings on the balcony with a Full moon over the ocean and it was fantastic. I actually slept for 8 hours straight- never done that at a beach condo and definitely not at home. I'm an incurable insomniac and tried many meds and natural supplements. Bottom line- I was relaxed, the stay was hassle free, it was gorgeous and perfect weather. The water was just as beautiful as we've in Hawaii, Caribbean or Mexico. I'm 48 and spent every summer of my life for 1-2 weeks at the gulf for vacay. Very few times have I seen the water as perfect as it was this time. No seaweed, crystal clear, and warm. Only thing I can think of that wasn't "perfection" is the condo is hard to keep cool as the sun hits about 4-5 pm. But there are fans. And we were fine. But things couldn't have been better. My 17 y/o daughter even said it the best vacay she has ever had. She has traveled as we have and the location, the condo and on the beach were all wonderful. xoxo Thank you❣️

Just arrived home and already miss sitting on the gulf front balcony watching the sunset. The property was perfect for our family of four. The owner provided some restaurant options, and although we have been to St. Petes many times, we now have some new favorites based on his suggestions. We will definitely be back for our next St. Petes vacation!!

Property has Everything you need. Owners have thought of all the details. Condo has the best views of the beach you can find. Perfect for a very relaxing week at the beach.

Condo was exactly as described, location was excellent & gulf front right on St Pete Beach. The weather didn’t cooperate for much beach time as a cold front & some rain moved through, but still enjoyed the area restaurants & nightlife…then we got to see our Bengals takedown the Bucs on Sunday!

4.0 / 5.0
We had a great stay and holiday at the apartment. The location and the views from the terrace are fabulous and make booking this unit worthwhile if this is your priority. However, for the price charged we would have expected a better appointed apartment - the bedroom carpet was extremely worn to the point that the pattern had disappeared, items that add to the stay experience were poor or clearly very cheap (kettle, toaster, iron and board etc), the beach umbrella available was no bigger than an umbrella you would use personally on a rainy day, there were no towel or bedding changes undertaken despite being there for nearly three weeks (though there is a washing machine if needed), taps were stiff to use and didn't always shut down fully (in particular the kitchen area sink) and so on.
In addition, the second bedroom is not designed for adults, it is a children's room with a bunk bed arrangement with no adult hanging space available. The person using this second bedroom in our party was an average heigh adult and she couldn't sleep in the lower bed (which is wider than the top bunk) as it wasn't long enough for her to stretch out, she had to sleep diagonally therefore. Equally, if the sofa bed is used, it takes up almost all of the available space in the living room area (as that area is not very large) which means everyone must go to bed when that is set up.
Overall these issues didn't particularly detract from the enjoyment of our stay but we felt that we paid a huge premium for the terrace and views - overall it felt a little that for the sake of a relatively small level of investment, it is, in part, set up as cheap as possible to maximise income. We did look at two other apartments within the block whilst staying and each were so much better appointed and modern.

The location in right on St. Pete Beach and our unit (301) had a balcony directly facing the beach and Gulf. It made for wonderful place to drink coffee watch the sunrise and set.
Jim, our host, was easy to communicate and provided so much helpful information that made our stay easy and that was complimented by the property management (the lady in the front office).
I highly recommend staying in unit 301 at this location. With 2 baths and 2 bedrooms, washer, dryer, full kitchen and living room - it was plenty of room for my family of 4 with easy access to ravel up and down the coast or go inland.
Thank you!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Vistas on the Gulf. The location was perfect - right on the beach. Check-in was easy as was check-out.
The condo was more than adequate for the five of us. We will return to this condo if our future plans permit.

Great location! Just steps to the gulf with beautiful views from 2 balconies.
Our first trip to St. Pete Beach was made even better by finding this condo. Jim, the owner, regularly communicated and was extremely helpful. The condo was clean and well-maintained. We appreciated the host graciously sharing an umbrella and beach chairs as we flew to the location. Provisions such as a coffee maker, dishwasher, and washer/dryer provide the comforts of home. The views from both balconies made for relaxing mornings and perfect sunset views. I highly recommend this condo!

Perfect size condo for our family of four with a perfect view!
This was our first visit to St Pete’s Beach and we couldn’t be happier. My wife, daughters (ages 8 and 11), and I had plenty of space. It had perfect views of both the beach and the pool.
Jim was great to work with! He provided several meal suggestions during our stay which we loved. The condo was all ready for us when we arrived at the very beginning of the check-in time. It was also very clean which is of course huge for us right now.
We enjoyed lunches on the larger balcony off of the living room. We went to the beach every day multiple times. It was great having beach chairs in the condo that we could use. Plus our girls loved the pool when they needed a break from the beach. The pool was the perfect temp and there were several pool noodles and pool rings that they loved playing with.
This beach had the best sand and wasn’t crowded at all. The girls keep asking when we will be back. We hope soon!!

Relaxing Getaway
What a nice place to relax, enjoy the beach andwatch the sunset. We really enjoyed the balcony; the fans were a nice addition. Well equipped kitchen. I ate in all but one night. Saw dolphins several times and even 2 manatees. Can't wait to go back.

Absolutely loved it!
Love this St Pete beach gem and would totally rent again. Honestly, the photos here do not do the location and the view justice. It’s really breathtaking. The staff is friendly and the owners made themselves totally available to any problems (we didn’t have any though). The pool was very busy at times but also sometimes perfectly calm but who literally cares when the beach is right there. Perfect way to introduce my 1 year old to my fav beach!

Very nice
Great location and condo complex not too big) Front balcony and views amazing; second balcony is off the small room where bunkbeds are located; loved all of the beach decor; easy access to beach; nice covered parking; very clean; great wifi; excellent master bedroom and bath (bed is very firm); kitchen, living room, and bunkbed room ok but smaller than I anticipated. Plenty of dishes/pots/ pans/silverware/cooking utensils. Someone had left coffee/filters, a little sugar, salt pepper, a roll of paper towels, one roll of toilet paper, dish detergent, and two dishwasher pods, and a can of lysol. Be prepared to purchase everything else such as liquid hand soap, spices, napkins, oil/cooking spray/ aluminum foil, baggies, containers for left overs. I purchased a tea jug and left it there. Only one set of towels per person, and one dish rag and drying towel (was not sufficient). Thank goodness for washer and dryer! Sofa itself was a beautiful color and shape and was large enough to sit two people. Cushions slanted backwards into a "hole of sorts". One of us had to sleep directly on sofa. We ould not utilize sofa bed as the mattress was so, very thin and uncomfortable. Pool was very busy all of the time. Vertical blinds were not in great condition. Contactless check in was wonderful. However, there was confusion about check out. Paper that was left on counter said, " If you are planning to leave before the office opens at 9 am, please come to the office between the hours of 9 to 5 to get check out procedures the day before/prior to your departure. Office hours are Monday through Sunday 9AM to 5 PM" Unfortunantly, I read this the evening prior to leaving after the office closed.. We had planned to leave at 6 AM the following morning to head home. After reading this, we thought we better stay until 9 to check out properly. Come to find out, the office opened at 8 and there was nothing "extra" to do to check out other than what was on paper...take out trash, start dishwasher, close blinds, set temp to 78 or 80 (two papers said something different), and move furniture back if moved. The manager really needs to combine, edit, and clarify the first and 3rd pages of the welcome packet. All in all though, a great place to stay , and I would definantly come back. It is reasonably priced compared to other condos nearby.

Perfect stay!
Ladies trip 2021 was absolutely enjoyable, this condo was amazing from the view, to the easy access to the beach for Grandma, fully stocked kitchen, the 2 patio's assured that Grandma didn't miss out on the pool shenanigan's and beach views! Parking was great, easy access to local markets and restaurants. I would highly recommend this property to all!!

Great Stay
Stayed at Vista 301 the week of 4/18, and had a great time. The condo was super clean and as described. You will not find a better location... just quiet enough... yet close enough to everything. Great communication with owner Jim... very much looking forward to a return visit.

Great views and perfect location
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The property is a quiet get away with incredible views and walking distance to many restaurants. The beach is steps away and is never crowded. We are already planning our next trip back. Emily in the main office was an absolute delight and so accommodating and friendly while we waited to get checked in to the condo. The owners were responsive with anything we needed. Thanks for an amazing vacation.

The description and pictures are accurate. The rental process was easy & owners were quick to respond. We appreciated the beach chairs & coolers at the unit for use. The pool area was very nice. Clean bathrooms. The property is well-kept and quiet. Our family of four had plenty of room in the condo. The oceanfront balcony had room for all of us to enjoy. This was our first trip to St. Pete. We would definitely return and stay here again!

Our best St Pete vacay yet!
My sister and I have been vacationing in St Pete for 6 years. We've tried a few different places to stay, ranging from resorts to private condos through VRBO. Jim and Sherry's place has got to be the best one yet! 2 BR / 2 Ba - full kitchen. The best part? That gulf front balcony! When we arrived, we found the condo very clean and prepped for our stay. The kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans/plates/drinkware/silverware and accessories. We had everything we needed to prepare meals for ourselves. The bathrooms had plenty of towels. The washer and dryer were excellent amenities. The location is just far enough away from the resorts that we felt like we had our own private beach. But, that balcony! Did I say how much we loved the views? Dinner and evening snacks/drinks a few nights right there. Even ordered our beloved crab from Crabby Bill's "to go" so we could enjoy our own hand crafted cocktails and dinner on that balcony. We will definitely be back. Can't wait to start planning our next getaway! Thanks Jim and Sherry for sharing your "home away from home" with us!

Just what we needed and even more!
Such an awesome place for a beach getaway! It has everything you would need during a short or long stay. A fully equipped kitchen was a great option for us since we (and our small daughter) are very picky eaters, so we prefer to cook our own food most of the time. There is also a grill near the pool, very convenient! The pool and hot tub were awesome: even though it was a bit chilly outside - it was so warm and relaxing both in the hot tub and in the pool. Also, the pool is a decent size, so enjoyable! The condo has two balconies: one directly overlooking the beautiful white sand beach and the other one on the poolside also has a beach view! Sunsets are beyond amazing there! The beds are good and comfortable, didn’t have any issues. Having two bathrooms was a big plus staying with the kid. Enough towel supplies. Awesome stay, only good things to say! Jim allowed us to check out later, and we are beyond thankful for that! I Will definitely be back and 150% recommend this place!
