Perfect quiet getaway for our family!
Our stay here was amazing! House is well maintained and seriously one block from quiet beach access. Trolley runs up and down the coast for easy transportation options. We were able to get where we needed without renting a car. Even with three kids! Outside space is super cute....you are able to stay cool with the fans and in the shade. The shed is stocked with everything you need for the beach which was perfect. We would love to come back again!

Cute little spot super close to the beach
We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Feet. I am a super big clean freak and judge harshly when it comes to the places I stay, this place was perfect. Super clean shower and bathroom! Beds were super comfy as well. The house is quite small, but suited my family of 4 perfect! Only a block from the beach access, so an easy walk. I had recently hurt my knee, so we rented a golf cart and it was perfect for getting back and forth.

Great getaway
We loved our stay at Sandy Feet in Indian Rocks Beach! The house was clean and inviting. The outside living space was perfect for relaxing after playing on the beach all day. Communication was quick and reliable when I had a question. We brought our fur babies and they loved the fenced backyard. We would love to stay again!

Cozy, quiet, home-away-from-home!
We had such a great experience staying at Sandy Feet Retreat! From inquiry to check out, it truly was a seamless experience. I had many questions leading up to our stay and they were always answered promptly with all the information we needed to know we wanted to move forward with booking. Upon arrival, we noticed how clean and well maintained the property was. We all slept fantastic with ample supply of bedding, pillows, and climate controls for each room. This was our first time visiting this part of Florida and we were very pleased with the location. It’s an easy drive to the rest of the St. Pete/Clearwater area yet, away from the hustle & bustle. We felt VERY safe in the quiet neighborhood Sandy Feet Retreat is nestled in. We also loved how convenient it was to walk to the beach to take in an early morning stroll or evening sunset. BONUS: no need to pack beach gear, beach towels, paddle boards, etc….it’s all included! We would 100% recommend this property to others and hope to visit again soon!

The house was perfect for our winter getaway! We brought our two labs that loved the backyard. It is beside the park, ball fields, and pickle ball courts. Great for walks to the beach and restaurants. Communication with the rental company was easy and quick.

Sandy Feet Retreat is wonderful!
This is our second time staying here. It’s the sweetest little house, well-kept and clean! The neighborhood is quiet and the beach is just a short walk away. The kitchen has everything you need. The king bed is comfortable and they recently replaced the washer and dryer. This rental is snug, so it works perfect for two people. The second bedroom sleeps 3-4 (w/ bunk bed) but one bathroom may make it challenging. (PS the shower has excellent water pressure!) There is a large outside space with a covered area for lounging and eating. We have not taken advantage of it b/c we’re typically there in August (way too hot!), but I can see it being a great gathering space in cooler months. Angie is wonderful to work with. Always prompt in her responses and attentive to our needs and questions. Sandy Feet Rentals will have our business for years to come!

Absolutely perfect
This was an absolutely perfect place for my wife and I and our 3 young boys. One of the bedrooms has a full size bed and twin bunk beds which were perfect for our boys. Super comfy king bed in master bedroom and the full kitchen was very convenient for making breakfast every morning and preparing lunch on our beach breaks. The beach was maybe a 5 min walk straight down with a pedestrian crosswalk over the main road. The back patio and back yard really put this place over the top. We had friends renting the adjacent property and we were able to connect our back yards through the gate and enjoy both spaces together. The outside shower was great for ringing off after the beach and kept the inside sand free! There were several games inside to play and loads of beach gear inside the shed that you can utilize. Location is great. Plenty of restaurants and shops just minutes away. The beach is gorgeous. We intend for this place to be our go-to for beach trips. It has it all!

Check out the local restaurants recommended in the great information binder that you find when you arrive at Sandy Feet Retreat. You are within an hours drive of many interesting places to visit.

Cleanest beach bungalow in the best location!
We actually live in the area and needed a place to stay while hour house was being tented. The hosts were very accommodating with our schedule and since no one was in there we were able to check in early. The place is newer remodel with a beachy vibe, HUGE back yard, great porch with fire pit, everything is super close in walking distance, food, bars, and beach. Lots of beach supplies in the shed out back. Communication was continual throughout our stay. Spoke to some neighbors who were super nice. Highly recommend!!! Gina D.
