About this property

Beach AND Bay: Spacious, Walkable, Relaxing & Fun!!

Just a stone’s throw from Madeira’s white powder sand BEACH and steps from the beautiful views of the Bocca Ciega BAY, this barrier island vacation retreat is perfect for the whole family, and features an IDEAL LOCATION, easily accessible GROUND FLOOR accommodations that are warm, welcoming, modern and spacious, plus all of the amenities and ambience that you’d expect from a GATED YACHT CLUB COMMUNITY next to the ocean.

In the adjoining ROC park, overlooking the bay and alongside the stunning waterside walking path, you’ll find tennis, pickle ball, basketball, baseball, yoga & fitness classes, a children’s playground and splash park. Restaurants, The Saltwater Hippie and Dive Bars, charming shops, Smugglers Cove Adventure Golf , Ice Cream Shop and a Kava Bar - are all within EASY WALKING DISTANCE, along with grocery, library, pharmacy and liquor store.

Around the complex, enjoy lounging by either of the two pristine heated pools; fish or take in a sunrise from the pier (both just steps from your door); stroll the marina docks or soak in the jacuzzi; detox in the sauna; catch a workout in the well-equipped fitness room, or enjoy a game of billiards.

Across the road and at the beach, there is volleyball, paddle boards, dolphins and endless miles of sand and surf. We’ve equipped your vacation home with a beach cart and all the supplies that little and big kids alike will love for a sun-filled day of fun. Here too, you’ll find Archibald Park and the Snack Shack, a popular spot to refuel, enjoy a frosty margarita and the perfect sunset. Adventurers can hop on the Sun Coast Beach trolley, running from Clearwater to St.Pete’s beach, to their destination of choice. Just a 2.3 mile ride away is JOHN’S PASS, a quaint, turn-of the century fishing village and #1 tourist attraction, where you can dolphin watch, shell, parasail, jet ski or shop to your heart’s content.

At home, you’ll enter your private retreat with the convenience and security of keyless keypad access. Tile floors throughout lead to comfortably furnished front and back SUN PORCHES (one an optional private third sleep space with pullout) perfect for enjoying a peaceful moment, morning coffee or game night. Prep your meals in a updated CHEF’s KITCHEN that boasts gleaming stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, recessed lighting, convenient easy glide pull out cabinetry, large dining table and additional high top counter seating. If you enjoy your meals out-of-doors, spark up the private GRILL and dine on the PATIO. For even more sleep options beyond the master suite, there are TWO QUEEN BEDS plus a TWO-LEVEL TWIN trundle. The large living space is an ideal family gathering spot and every room is equipped with its own Smart (Roku) TV. The full size washer/dryer makes extra clothing unnecessary and the Hepa-filtration air purifier offers quality air and peace of mind. Finally, the luxurious king memory foam mattress, large walk-in closet and private ensuite in your oversized master sanctuary offers the perfect end to your perfect day.

Absolutely loved!!
We came down for a family vacation and we absolutely loved everything about our stay. The condo was clean and a very comfortable stay for our large family. Everything we needed or wanted to do was conveniently located, from the store to the beach and other activities we enjoyed. The owner was wonderful and very communicative with us. We would definitely like to return again and would absolutely recommend this condo to others.

Family stay in Madeira beach
Great location near Madeira Beach, grocery store, restaurants. Spacious unit for family of 4. Pools and gym were conveniently located and enjoyable for all. Good communication with owner and easy access to unit. Good value for money. Only two downsides: unit lacked natural light given orientation vs other buildings in complex and there was not outdoor space with the unit as the two patios were enclosed for year round use.

Happy Vacation
My husband and I decided to try this condo because my daughter and her family were trying another at the Yacht Club for a first also. We absolutely loved it. We usually rent other places but wanted to meet up with our family members. We loved it first of all because of the cleanliness, where it was located and because it was very private. These are all of the reasons we are renting again next year.

May Getaway
We have rented condos at MBYC several times. This condo did not disappoint! Location was excellent, one of the piers was 80 steps from the condo. Great location for pool access. Kitchen had everything to prepare dinner when we were up to cooking. The ambiance was great. Plenty of comfortable seating. Bedrooms were large, great closet space plus a large top loader washer and dryer. Certainly would rent again from Valerie.

Great location
Great location, close walk to the beach and not far from Johns Pass. The rental had lots of space and everything we needed was provided. The kitchen is well equipped. The owner was very fast with communication. Only downside with the rental was the pool was not heated and we were there when the temps were cooler and the lack of natural sunlight that you get in the rental. However, we were rarely there in the daytime.

Great vacation!
We had a great time staying here! Liked the location and what’s around. Although, it is a 5-10min DRIVE to John’s pass if you prefer to be close, not really walking distance. But lots of parking around - so not a big deal. Appreciate the amenities - beach gear available for use. Loved being next to ball fields. Fish tacos at Snak Shop amazing! 5-10min walk to beach with kids and gear. Only a couple of things that we were bummed by is the the hot tub out of order (which sounds like has been for awhile”) and fitness room old and dated. Again, all good - got more time outside! Would definitely stay here again

Disappointment
The location was decent however, the property itself was not. There is ZERO natural light in the condo and it feels very closed in as the ceilings are only 7-7 1/2 high. If you’re a tall person it is very uncomfortable and tight. The bedroom with the double beds smelled like urine and the comforters were covered with some sort of dried up bodily fluid. The pots and pans are very old and what used to be silver is now black. The fridge was filled with a bin that said “owners” and had all sorts of condiments in it. So, we were unable to use almost an entire shelf in the fridge. One of the side rooms has mold on the ceiling and curtains. The Xbox in that same room also didn’t work. The beach chairs were rusted and difficult to get opened and closed. The beach cooler bag doesn't zip and is ripped so it leaks. The condo felt as if it was someone’s full time residence and they quickly packed up so that we could come in. I’m thankful that nobody in my family is allergic to cats. There is obviously a cat that lives there and that was not disclosed. For the amount of money that I paid, I feel like we were not fully informed of what we were getting (or not getting) for that price.

Amazingly well stocked, perfect location
I stayed here with my husband and toddler for about ten days, and this location and condo was absolutely perfect. The kitchen was one of the most well stocked kitchens I've ever used. We made every single meal in this kitchen (except for two lunches out) and had everything we needed. The beach is a ten minute walk (beach cart made this easy) and the condo has some beach toys, buckets, shovels, balls, umbrella, chairs, etc. There are a few beach towels which was plenty for us but if you had a bunch of people you'd probably need to grab a few more. There are two pools in the complex, and one is very close to the condo. They were not crowded and kid friendly. There is a free splash pad in the ROC park about a 2 minute walk from the condo, and a playground, butterfly garden, and fishing pier in the park. Winn Dixie, CVS, and a Dollar store are within walking distance and made life so easy with a kid. We drove to Johns Pass (5 minutes away) for shopping, ice cream, etc. We drove into St Pete to do the Chihuly museum and that was only about 25 minutes away. Tampa is close (40-60 minute drive), and we flew in and out of the tampa airport. We had a friend stay with us for a few days and we did not feel cramped at all. Parking was no problem, and we had no trouble accessing the jacuzzi and the fitness center. Check in and check out was so easy (contactless) and we didn't really need much but when we did reach out to the owner the owner was quick and responsive. We'll for sure stay here again.

Met our needs
We enjoyed our stay. We were there for a swim meet in St. Petersberg and while we were farther away than we wanted we had exactly the flexibility we needed. It was a quick drive 20-30 minutes from the pool. While half the family was at the swim meet the rest of the family could enjoy the pool or walk to the beach. The accommodations were aligned with the pictures and provided everything we needed. We were able to grill at least one night which was perfect for a low key night. We ate out most nights and there were plenty of options close by. Communication with the owner was great. We will definitely consider booking again if we are back in the area.

This is the most well stocked kitchen that I have ever stayed in. The one pool is literally 60 steps out of the condo and one of the docks is about the same. The queen beds could use a pillow mattress topper as they are overly firm. The access to the grill was absolutely unbelievable. Great memories. Do yourself a favor and book today❤️

About the host

Hosted by Valerie Willms

Host profile image
Hi! We're Valerie & Bernie, a former yoga teacher and business exec respectively, married more than 30 years, parents of two amazing young adults, and currently living in beautiful Charlotte, NC. Growing up in Ontario, Canada made us extremely appreciative of the 3 S's of Florida - sun, surf and sand - and we sure hope you'll enjoy your time here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Our family has been vacationing in this hidden jewel of the Gulf for more than fifteen years. Now that our gang has grown, it has it all for us all to gather and reconnect: easy to travel to, beyond beautiful, and offering everything you could ever want or need within steps of a tranquil retreat space.

What makes this property unique

Our day here often begins with a steaming cup of coffee on the dock - watching the dolphins frolic - followed by a long walk on the beach and snapping a gazillion photos of the rising sun. Usually it ends with warm skin, a margarita, one of the best sunsets in the world and the ocean blues, soft sands and tranquil greys of our inner sanctuary. There is so much here to make what happens in between entirely up to you!
