Never had visited St Pete’s Beach until this stay. Made sure each day that we were walking the beach before 9 am to avoid the tattoo crowd. St Pete’s Beach is pretty tickey tack and commercial but the beach is beautiful in the morning. Access to the beach from this condo was easy. Go to Ft DeSoto Park for more pristine nature. ##### George B.

Chip and Sue's unit was awesome! The condo complex was very quiet, clean, and easy to get around. We rented a car for Tampa and our favorite breakfast place on Pass-A-Grille, but everything else can be accessed by walking. We loved coming back to our "second home" and couldn't have asked for an easier and convenient place to stay. My husband and I are now talking about a trip in the fall! ##### Kara F. ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property number is unit 105. Perhaps I missed it but I saw nowhere in the information that this is not on the first floor and I assumed that it was. I have mobility problems so getting my luggage up to the second floor where the unit is located was difficult. Also, you can see the beach from the unit but you have to cross a street and a parking lot to get there. This is not what I would call on the beach. However, it is a cute, very clean, and well-organized unit. It is quiet and has a lovely pool. I met some of the owners at the complex and found them very friendly and helpful. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terri R. Jan 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A rental, super clean, and location! The location of this condo is on point if being close to the beach is important to you. Literally, just across the parking area is the beach entrance. I would more likely call this accommodation a studio apartment as it is one room and the bathroom. A comfortable queen memory foam bed, plenty of room for clothes, a small kitchenette, refrigerator, and closet. The kitchenette is equipped with absolutely everything you may need including a dishwasher and coffee maker.This accommodation was super clean! One of the cleanest we've ever stayed in and we've stayed in a lot!You do walk thru a small portion of the pool area to enter the building which was fine. The people we met that are "regulars" there were very nice. Great area and we felt safe the whole time. The only thing my husband would have liked was a roomier balcony. It is on the small side but it worked for us.Within walking distance to a lot of restaurants and bars. Paradise Grill is across the lot on beach. Drinks and food was convenient and good. One of our favs was Branzini's and another was the The Reef. Both just 2 blocks away. Coconut Charlies and Rum Runners are accessable by beach as well as road. Both were also good and great places to grab a drink and watch the sunset. We did the Starlite dinner cruise. On the pricey side but very good food and nice experience.Easy communication with host. Had no issues at all. It is on the smaller side but perfect for single or couple. Was perfect for us! ##### Terri R.

This unit is small but very accommodating Marshal and Susan have thought of most everything to make your stay comfortable- in the closet they have two beach chairs a very handy 12 pack cooler ,three beach mats and obviously if your flying in these are items your not packing.If your looking for luxurious or high end this is not for you- however if your looking for CLEAN and very functional this is it!! My wife and I were here for four days and it couldn't have been any better the pool was very nice and well kept and the other people staying here we so friendly and pleasant. There are a few restaurants /Bars within walking distance of the condo that we found to be quite good - we love oyster's and the Oyster Shuckers is just a short walk -also Willies Bar was a lot of fun and close by as well. This was our first time in St.Pete/ Treasure Island and I went away thinking we need to come back and explore more .As I mentioned the location between Treasure Island and St.Pete is perfect we would definitely stay here again !!! The owners were very helpful and any email or call was quickly returned - so if your reading this and wondering if you should pull the trigger just remember this is what it is a smaller CLEAN condo to explore from. Thanks once again Marshall!!! (chip) D. From Michigan ##### Dan D. ### 6/10 Okay #### Angela K. May 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Location is Great... My daughter and I stayed here for one week. The room itself was what we expected and good for us, although the balcony was worthless. The door did not work and I was afraid one day I was not going to get it closed. The location is perfect for the beach and walkable or short drive to everything. The weather was perfect so no complaints there overall. My issue and why I will not stay again is the lack of privacy. You have to walk through the pool area to get to your room and we felt we were watched from the moment we arrived which made the non-use of the balcony okay. Occasionally someone would smile back, but we didn't even use the pool it was so uncomfortable. Maintenance came 23 hours early and thought we were supposed to be gone (he knocked). Then a lady, assuming she came to clean? walked into our room without knocking an hour before checkout with my daughter getting dressed. I don't feel this was the fault of VRBO/property manager. We were very respectful, clean and quiet. My daughter lives FL and we were having a beach week and we just didn't feel welcomed as guests. Another thing to note for reference - the beach is public and you have to pay for cabanas/umbrellas/chairs. If you are watching your budget and this is important to you, look for another condo that may provide these or plan for it. I did love this beach. Every night is a sunset spectacle and very peaceful, so not this particular complex next time... ##### Angela K. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Travis P. Jun 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is the first time visiting Clearwater/St Pete area. We were very pleased with the unit. It’s was very clean and the location can not be beat if you are looking for beach access!Grocery stores, restaurants/bars are all very close, again its location is superb. If traveling alone or as a couple, I recommend staying here. The only complaint I can share is being charged an extra 100 for having an “excessively dirty room”, which is not right. Ultimately, this is a wonderfully located clean efficiency apartment with convenient parking included. ![Walk to the beach in minutes!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b97e8a2e-f3c6-4dec-bf59-e2b507d080e5-1749745685875.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e82aa5bf-99e2-42e4-8f68-4f9d3bb11a4f-1749745685422.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Travis P.
