BTR #1874
The Space:
This home has an open and airy feel to it. We kept the furnishings inside to a minimum to protect this feel. Decorated with beachy decor - the backyard is just a continuation to your Tropical Paradise with Modern Saltwater Pool (heated from Nov 1st thru May 1st) and a NEW outdoor shower. You may never shower inside again.
The master bedroom is huge with a king sized bed and its own bathroom. The other rooms have queen beds and great closet space. The kitchen flows perfectly to make the home feel like one big open area.
When in the home you feel as if that back patio and pool are just steps away -
Guest Access:
Entire Home, yard & pool
Golf Cart Included, bikes, all beach amenities.
The Neighborhood:
Quiet and backs to the mangroves. So many birds to see & hear.
According to Coastal Living Magazine, Indian Rocks Beach is the #2 best and most romantic beach destination in the US! Mouthwatering local cuisine with a very laid-back old beach town feels. You won't find bar fights here in this family friendly town. Everyone here is looking to enjoy every moment of every day.
Boarded by the intercoastal waterway on the eat and the Gulf of Mexico on the west, Indian Rocks Beach offers 3 miles of white sand beaches with 27 beach access points along Gulf Blvd.
One of the best things about staying here is the neighborhood. If you aren't familiar with Indian Rocks beach, be prepared to enjoy the ABSOLUTE COOLEST BEACH COMMUNITY in Florida. IT has a spectacular beach but the attitude and vibe are palpable. With only one large hotel, the beach has retained it's "old beach town" feel. With mostly cottages and very few multistory condos nothing about it fells like a tourist destination. Loaded with local restaurants, this is the uber cool, laid-back beach town. And what to "take it up a notch" for a night it’s a 5-minute trip to Clearwater Beach via car or take our Famous Trolley for a safe drinking night. There are plenty of places to visit, restaurants to experience and bars to enjoy for a lifetime of enjoyment. You won't want to leave and most certainly will want to come back.
Getting Around:
We include a 6-passenger golf cart for FREE! Having a golf cart is a GAME CHANGER! It’s a wonderful for going back and forth to the beach for the below reasons:
1. There is a dedicated FREE golf cart parking at almost all of the 27 beach entrances in IRB. The parking for cars at all but on of the beach entrances in Indian Rocks Beach is for residents only. The one parking lot that is for the public is very hard to get a spot there after 10:30 or 11:00 am and you could never leave and come back in one day and get a spot. With the golf cart you can go back and forth all day long even at sunset.
2. It is awesome for loading your gear easily and hauling the family back and forth to the beach.
3. The 3rd row folds down to a cargo bed. It goes about 20 miles an hour, is street legal, and perfect for going to restaurants and bars as well.
Other Things to Note:
Stay here when traveling to:
• Watch the Tampa Bay Bucs
• Watch the Tampa Bay Lightening
• Watch the Tampa Bay Rays
• Watch a college football Game
• Watch Professional Golf Tournaments
• Come for your own golfing trip

We were completely satisfied with everything about this place! The home and area has everything you need for a laid back, relaxing getaway 💗
I didn't want to leave.....

From before we even left for our vacation the host Alisha sent us suggestions for activities and restaurants in the area. The check in process was seamless! And then the house, it is amazing but the outdoor space is spectacular. The description doesn't do it justice. It has everything that you could ever think you would need, baby gear, beach sand toys, a wagon, beach chairs, umbrellas, pool floats, FULLY stocked kitchen from baking sheets and Pyrex to corn holders and basting brushes oh and a fancy Kuerig that brewer a pot or a cup. We really felt like we were at home for the week. Safe to say best family vacation!

The home was very comfortable. The pool was sparkling and we were visited daily by the wonderful birds in the nature preserve that the property backs up to. The property owners allowed us to check in early. The golf cart was a hit with my SIL. He drove it everywhere.
The ONLY recommendation I would give is for blackout curtains in the bedrooms. Other than that. It was a great vacation home to spend a week with your family.

This house was spectacular it had everything we needed plus extra’s that we didn’t get to use. Five stars! The attention to details was absolutely amazing. Friendly host, easy access, fantastic amenities, spacious and most importantly very clean. Perfect for our family’s needs during our granddaughter’s graduation weekend. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

The pool toys were a mess and dirty, we were only able to use one floaty. The garage was also a mess and disorganized, we didn't know what we could use or not use. The golf cart was a life saver.. Everything else was good we enjoyed our stay

This house was perfect for vacation for our family of five. Very clean, well stocked, and just a beautiful house! It was wonderful to have the pool, which we used almost daily! Fantastic location in a nice quiet neighborhood. It was great to have the golf cart to make quick trips to stores and restaurants, and to take supplies to the beach. We never had any trouble finding parking at the beach. The house is located in a very central location, close to Clearwater, Tampa, and St Petersburg. We enjoyed exploring the area! We would absolutely rent this house again!

We stayed at this beautiful cottage for a long weekend with friends but would definitely consider coming back with the whole family. The cottage is spacious, clean, fully updated, beautiful and beachy on the inside. The backyard is private with a lovely heated pool. Beach access is a short walk away. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything you might need. Cottage also stocked with plenty of towels, beach and pool gear.

Our family spent 12 days at this Indian Rocks Beach home. It is located in a quiet neighborhood close to restaurants, the beach and nearby pickleball courts. We also enjoyed walking through the Nature Preserve. The home is very comfortable and worked well. The kitchen was well designed and well stocked, something you do not find in all rental homes. We especially enjoyed the pool and the golf cart. Those were great additions. Thank you so much for allowing our family and furry friends to enjoy your home. All the best to you!

Terrific property with a pool near the beach. Our second stay was as pleasant as the first.
5.0
We loved this house. It is stocked with everything you need - both in the house and at the pool or beach. There are chairs, a beach wagon, floats, umbrellas, towels, lots of kitchen gadgets, etc, etc. Having the golf cart to use was absolutely the best. Easy parking and easy to get around. It has seatbelts so we were very comfortable even with a toddler with us. Nice open layout. Awesome pool. Great communication from property owners. Great location - convenient to everything. We definitely plan to return!

Beautiful
Our first impression was how beautifully maintained the home is, as well as how deceivingly large it is! So roomy, well-stocked, and spotless. My whole family loved the pool, I think we swam in that more than we were actually at the beach. Alisha was super helpful and responsive with my questions and requests. I would stay again the next time we travel down there! Highly recommend!

Wonderful house for our family
Had a lovely time at this beach house. The pool was the highlight, and our kids absolutely loved swimming in it multiple times per day. The beach is an easy walk, and our dog loved the dog park just around the corner, but it all eventually came back to the pool; we skipped the beach on our last two days there in favor of the swimming right in the backyard.

Little Oasis
Fantastic backyard oasis within walking distance of the beach. One of the cleanest places we've stayed. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommended!

Best owners ever!!
My husband and I have rented beach houses for over 30 years. NEVER have we had owners so kind and understanding. Both Barry and Alisha were the BEST!! Now as 60 year olds we wished we were closer to the beach but we rented the golf cart and it was wonderful. And we took care of it like it was our own. When we took it to the beach we put towels on the floor so we didn't get a ton of sand in it. Also last night we cleaned it out. The house was just wonderful for us 4 grown adults. We used the pool everyday. We ate all our meals outside. ( we didn't cook but we did order in) The door lock code worked great. Some we have rented didn't. The master bath if wonderful. As is master bedroom closet is big with lots of room. Fact that this house is a ranch was a plus. The beach chairs were great nice to have them. Please if you rent this house take care of it as you owned it. The owners work hard to keep it nice please do the same. We seen lots of different birds because the wild life preserve is in the back yard. That was cool. This house was clean and we left it as clean and we left it clean. Lots of places to eat but it would have been a good walk with one of us waiting for knee replacement. So as I said we rented their golf cart. TJ was the spot we really liked. Maggie Mays had great breakfast on the intercostal . That was great food and view. We ate at Jimmy Guana that was a blast. Food was good so was service. The service at every place we ate was great. This was a wonderful trip... Thank you to Barry and Alisha for sharing your wonderful home

Great beach home
Very comfortable, everything we needed, pool was super! Also, the bikes, wagon, beach chairs, umbrella and basketball and soccer balls were all appreciated.
The only downside was loud music played by neighbors for two days.

Perfect location at a lovely beach
This is quite possibly one of my favorite properties that I have stayed in. Perfectly seamless check in with excellent communication from the host. The home has all of the amenities you will need and more! The pool is stunning and so relaxing. The walk to the beach is quick and easy. Great proximity to local restaurants. We could walk to dinner. You will not be disappointed with this stay. I hope to return to IRB soon!

Awesome Coastal Home
My wife and I stayed for a week April 2022: Such a beautiful, well maintained home. Very nicely decorated. The pool is very private with high fences and a green belt directly behind. Would live in this house!!

Better than advertised!
The facilities, location and surrounding area were magnificent. Daily sunsets, walks through the neighbourhood, tennis, pickleball, resistance training in the park, pool, access to the beach, walkable restaurants and just 30 minutes to shopping in Clearwater. A fabulous experience overall!

February getaway
Two couples/relatives and our small dogs stayed for the month of February. House was just like the photos. Very clean and inviting. Kitchen well supplied for cooking and eating in. Heated pool and backyard were tremendous. Close walk to beach and any number of restaurants. Alisha was quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely stay again.

Absolutely perfect!
We had a great vacation. The house is super clean and larger than expected. The backyard is beautiful and the heated pool is amazing. We loved the location. It was a few blocks to beach, nearby parks and nature center. The kids enjoyed riding bikes to get ice cream, play tennis and ride on the beach. It was our first time to Indian Rocks Beach and we loved the community.

Relaxing Stay
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home at Indian Rocks Beach. The inside and outside is beautiful. The neighborhood is very peaceful. We walked to the beach each day and watched beautiful sunsets. The majority of our time was spent by the heated pool. The kids loved it. Very relaxing! It was a great way to spend Christmas together. Thank you!

Thanksgiving Getaway
The house had everything you need, clean and nicely decorated. Located in a nice neighborhood, where we rode the bikes around. Really enjoyed the heated pool and having the dog park down the block since we brought our mini schnauzer with us. If you have the opportunity checkout Guppy's On the Beach, Groupers on the Gulf, Tj's Italian Cafe, Cafe de Paris Bakery and Salt Rock Grill.

Family Vacation in Paradise
The house was clean and well equipped with modern features. The hosts had extra towels, blankets, beach supplies, and even bikes available. Communication between with the hosts was above expectation as they were quick to answer any questions we had. They were very, very accommodating. We were so impressed with the spacious house, awesome pool, and great location! We had 6 people total on our trip, and we would all recommend.

A Personal Resort!!
Absolutely beautiful home! EXACTLY as pictured! The pool is even more perfect in person. Our family loved staying here and riding bikes all over town. Great location to everything and the beach is a very short walk or ride. The owners are in constant contact and have thought of everything you need. Don’t hesitate to book! It’s amazing!
We survived our first Hurricane (Elsa) on our vacation. Hopefully our next visit will be storm free 🤣.

Great house for families or couples
What a great week we had here. We were a couple of moms staying with our kids and the house was large enough to space out from the kids, cook or grill - all while enjoying the pool on the backyard or a short stroll to the beach. The owners attention to detail was wonderful like the baskets of beach towels and blankets; and how they were incredibly responsive prior to my trip and during as well. We mentioned to them that the home needed some baking pans and within a few hours they were at our doorstep! The bikes, beach chairs and wagon were great for going to the beach - if I had realized all that was available I could have packed a lot less! I almost hate sharing how great this house was as I hope to visit it again but I am sure it will stay very busy with guests! My experiences with VRBO can be hit or miss ... this is a hit!
