Location!

The Location of this place is amazing! You can walk anywhere you want. Super close to the beach! We loved it! The place is clean. The place is nice. I would recommend staying there. Bring beach towels and anything else you might need for the beach! The bed seems a lot more like a double than a queen. We noticed a sign in the neighborhood that said, don’t drink the water, but we were not told that by the host. So, just be prepared for that.

Excellent location, easily walk everywhere!

We had a relaxing and very enjoyable stay. Location was primo... we're able to park and walk everywhere we went. We sat waterside, got some sun, sat in the court yard and got some shade. Very peaceful place to crash while adventuring in Clearwater Beach!

About the host

Hosted by Mickey Moore

Host profile image
I grew up in Oklahoma(BOOMER SOONER!) and Li grew up in mainland China. We met as coworkers in Tampa in 2008 and the rest is history. We both got in to real estate in 2016 and then discovered the vacation rental industry. And we love it!

Our home base is about an hour from the beach. We enjoy our dogs, RV travel, and playing poker(Li is a semi-pro).

Why they chose this property

We always wanted a place near the beach so we jumped on this gem when the opportunity presented itself.

What makes this property unique

Back by the water is sooo relaxing! And the location is perfect for walking everywhere on the island.
