Beautiful condo, excellently equipped, gorgeous views, clean and spacious. Pool was lovely. Beach was steps away. Sunsets every night. From the minute you walked in the front door you felt the luxury. Plenty of eateries within walking distance. Quiet. Covered parking spot. Can't say enough great things about the place.

Gorgeous condo, great view.
Really nice property, immaculate and well provisioned. The location is perfect with a five star view of the Gulf of Mexico. Also, close to many great restaurants. However, the real star of the show is the spectacular beach which runs for miles. Highly recommended.

Great location, truly is right on the beach
My wife and I and our three early teen children stayed there for spring break. The location was extremely well stocked, especially the kitchen, and had great appliances quality appliances. I'm the family cook, and that makes a big difference to me. On the first night, the air conditioning went out. We texted back and forth with the owner and they had someone out the next day and it was fixed. It has a nice pool and hot tub out back and a dedicated parking spot right next to the stairs and elevator. All in all, it was a great experience and everybody loved it.

Best Ever!! Indian Rocks Condo!!
We have stayed at many VRBO rentals and this was by far one of the best!! The condo is decorated so beautifully and supplied with every beach and household essential you could ever need!! A beach bag, beach towels, beach toys and chairs, and in the condo, essential spices, condiments and the most beachy plates and dishes!! Kelly even thought of chip clips and insulated wine and tumblers!! Seriously amazing!!! Let’s talk views!!! You can sit oceanfront on your very own patio and watch and listen to the waves... simply beautiful!!! The location is close and within walking distance to some fun places to eat!! An ice cream shop, Crabby Bills, PJ’s Oyster House and Jakes Mexican Cantina all fun places to eat and enjoy!! There is also a fun new brewery within walking distance, Anecdote Brewing. CVS is also close by. All in all this was an amazing stay!! One of my favorites!! Perfect in every way!! We will be back!! I also forgot to mention the lovely heated pool and hot tub..and the fact that you can walk for miles both ways on the beach!! Simply amazing!!!Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!

We had stayed in another unit at Pier House for several years, but it no longer was available. We booked this unit, and it exceeded our expectations. It is clean and comfortable, with a spectacular beach view. The location is perfect for access to Tampa, St. Petersburg and Clearwater.

Experience Wonderful Beach Life!
Just got back from a very relaxing week in IRB which is our favorite place to unwind. This place is as advertised! The furnishings are wonderful and the residence is tastefully decorated. We kept it fairly simple and had many of our meals at Crabby Bills across the street which has been a favorite of ours for years now. This place is larger than many of the other units we have rented and the full-size washer and dryer provided were very much appreciated. I would highly recommend this location to anyone.

Great condo, location
The condo was wonderful! It is well stocked with everything you would need. Including beach towels and chairs. The little BBQ was also handy for grilling up some fresh grouper, shrimp, and scallops from Natchman’s Fish Market. Excellent restaurants are just across the street. Beds were very comfortable and the view from the balcony was terrific! We will return!
