This was a lovely condo that appears to have been recently remodeled. It was extraordinarily well stocked with everything we needed-kitchen items, beach towels and chairs, toiletries, laundry supplies, etc. It was very nicely decorated and very clean. There was plenty of space and it was comfortable for two couples. View of the beach from the living room and master bedroom. Beach is beautiful and walkable in both directions. The hosts were wonderful. They communicated promptly and allowed us to check-in early since property was ready which was much appreciated. This was a great home base for us to explore the surrounding area. We spent our time mostly in St. Petersburg and Sarasota as we didn't find the Treasure Island area particularly appealing. Cons were minor but were as follows: Building itself is older and seems a bit rundown on the outside. We didn’t use the pool but would say the same for the pool area. Location seems quite safe although the Treasure Island area is a bit rundown as well. Be aware that laundry is shared coin-op and there are quiet hours at night when laundry cannot be done Building is quiet and would not be good for louder groups. There is no private balcony space and the photo shown in the listing is from the balcony walkway that is used to access all of the condos. People do bring chairs out and sit out there but expect to have people regularly walking by to access their condos. All in all a very nice stay and good home base!
