Uncooperative weather

The weather was not good for beach walking. Unit was: Comfortable, clean, quiet, close to the beach and in walking distance of good restaurants. No TV without membership in UTube or other visitor paid TV and complicated to get current news, etc. For the price paid for the week I expected free TV.

Another Amazing Stay

We needed ann impromptu escape after unexpectedly losing our black lab. We had stayed at one of the hosts other properties before that was not available. I was able to message Nicole and she had availability at this location and was very accommodating. It was another perfect location, a block from the beach, great restaurants nearby and exactly what we needed to heal our hearts for a few days.

Online listing is misleading

I rented this unit because of the “beautiful coastal decor” and description shown in the photos. Since I was going to stay for the month of March, it was important it “feel just like home” with recliner. I confirmed with the owner in January hurricane damage in the interim had been taken care of and was assured the unit was even better than before. Since the photos showed the beautiful unit, I paid the balance and rested assured that when I arrived from Ohio, everything would be fine. Not so. The unit has barebones, stark furniture, apparently replacement furniture after the hurricane. It was further from the beach than depicted in the photos. I would not have rented the unit if I had realized what the unit is like today. Also, beds unmade, not clean and stuff in refrigerator. I emailed the owner of my dismay. She fortunately contacted the cleaning crew who cleaned within the hour. In response to her question whether I was going to stay, I responded I had no other place to go in this high season and I had paid her for the month. I vowed to make the best of it. I ask her husband, when he came over the next day to set up TV reception, for a partial repayment as the unit bore no resemblance to what I rented. Irritated, he said he would convey my request to his wife, the owner. I heard nothing from her. Positives: kitchen well-stocked, appliances also new. Bottom line: photos show beautiful unit (not today’s) and lack of candor or desire to make amend, all disturbing to me.

Crystal Sands Beach House

We had a wonderful time staying here! The unit was clean and nicely decorated. It offered all beach amenities. The location was the best! Short walking distance to the beach and a few restaurants, but also tucked away from the busy road. Nicole was available for any questions or concerns, which was very appreciative. We will definitely come back!

Great Beach vacation rental

The house is centrally located in IRB and near numerous highly rated restaurants, a nice park, and a few blocks to the beach. We walked everywhere. The house was clean and had all of the necessities including beach equipment. The neighborhood is quiet. Nicole was an excellent and responsive host. We will be back for a visit in the future.

Great location ! Perfect small getaway !

We loved the location and the cute outdoor seating ! the power/breaker kicked the first day but clicked back on. The cooling was a little hot stayed between 75-78 all week (we set it to 67/68). We definitely needed more trash bags (5) and toilet paper (2 rolls) for 6 people for 7 days . The stove tops (only the two small burners worked) . We bought groceries to cook before we knew it didn’t work. We took an Uber to Walmart (I’d recommend doing that instead of buying at the local market). We loved having a beach cart , umbrellas , beach chairs and the amazing outdoor area ! The lizards and birds was a plus ! :) The location was absolutely amazing for us and what we was looking for . We will definitely come back to visit !!!

Wonderful, beachy cottage!

I usually don't post comments after a stay, but this unit was so wonderful that I wanted to comment on it! The decor was so beachy and and it was, by far, one of the cleanest units we have ever stayed in at IRB. Everything in the unit was brand new. Even though it was a short walk to the beach, there was a wagon, chairs and an umbrella for us to use. There is another unit connected to it, but we could not hear anything from the neighbors. It was very quiet, and located on a little side street in a quiet residential area. There are 2 plazas right at the end of the street with restaurants, an ice cream shop, bike rentals and even a surf shop which was very convenient. Nicole, the owner, was fantastic to work with and responded immediately to us. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it! Thanks, Nicole, for a wonderful Labor Day weekend!

Loved it with a some issues

People in Indiana Rocks are very nice and friendly. It's very quite. I loved that we could walk to most things like the beach, restaurants, park or a convenient store. I was upset when I got to our place the light was burned out over the kitchen stove and the sink had a very bad leak. I had to put a towel and keep a bowl under the sink and empty twice a day when I did dishes. I cooked breakfast and super everyday. Was never fixed before we left to go home. It was nice they did send a family member to look at the issues but she was not able to fix the problems. Over all I still would recommend staying in Indian Rocks.

Perfect Little Beach House - Excellent Location!

We've been in several very nice vacation rentals over the years - this was definitely one of the best-fitting ones overall for our family. The duplex cottage was very clean and really nicely decorated. The neighborhood is very quite - it is a residential area and the neighbors were very friendly, nice, and quiet. Inside, it had the perfect amount of room for a family of 4! Outside it had a small, very nice patio where we enjoyed observing little lizards running around, reading a book, and playing. It basically had everything we needed and wanted on our vacation. There are several great restaurants walking distance (~5-30 min.), an awesome French bakery (~15 min.), a small convenience store (~5 min.), playgrounds, a nature reserve with a board walk (~10 min) and several beach access points (~5 min. walk)! The beach is beautiful! For vacationers wanting to cook more at home (we only had breakfast and made sandwiches at home), a few extras in the kitchen would be helpful. Also, the location of the overhead air conditioning vents in the bedrooms, when air condition is needed at night, might be troublesome for some. Overall though, the whole house air conditioning system is new and works very well.This little home away from home is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a beach vacation. Looking forward to be back soon!

Great Location, but not as pictured

To start, we get to our place 10 minutes until check in. I tried several times to contact the host to see if we could go ahead and at least get things set by the door. It kept going straight to voicemail so we decide to sit in the spot for the 10 minutes. Then, as i make way to the unit (traveling through the palm trees that overhang the sidewalk), I see the cleaning person there. He asked which unit and I said "B". At which point he advises he had not finished cleaning and would need 15 MORE minutes. That puts us 15 after check in after a very long travel day. We finally get inside in hopes to sit and relax with some tv. Nope, can't do that because internet is not working. I try both the host numbers listed and both go straight to voicemail. Looking around it was an ok place. I questioned the use of some appliances so I made do with the other things I had. Microwave looked like it was about to explode when used, coil on the stove damaged and shower head was not clean. The saving grace for this property was the location. Had it not been so close I would have taken a star away. We were able to load up the wagon and get to the beach by walking. No annoying task of trying to find parking.

Great location for family

This was a great location to restaurants and beaches. Short walk to 15th Ave access! Great for families and close to many restaurants. The host had us set up with children books and coloring books with crayons! Which was amazing! Place was clean and beds were really comfortable! Kitchen all set up with the essentials and everything we needed for the beach with little ones! Having a washer and dryer is amazing for us as a family! Would stay here again!

We enjoyed our time at this charming cozy rental in IRB. It‘s really just a 5min walk to the beach and you will find beach chairs, umbrellas and toys in the house. Nicole provided us with tons of information. We can highly recommend Guppy‘s for Dinner, went twice and had awesome food. I want to highlight the outside seating area which is great (weather permitting) and we enjoyed our breakfasts under the sun.
