About this property

Sunsets, Cocktails & Memories!

Spoil your family - stay at the best on the West Coast Beach. Capture the sunsets from the balcony of our elegant, Non-Smoking, 1900 SQ.FT. corner condo at the premier Beach Palms.

We are a Saturday to Saturday building and are unable to accommodate rental requests to begin on any day other than a Saturday .We have recently switched our cleaning services to a bonded and insured company which is doing an awesome cleaning job for us!

Our upscale, lovely appointed, three bedroom, two bath, oversized, corner condo allows you to walk down to the sandy beach right from the balcony staircase. The master bedroom and living room open directly to the balcony with a panoramic view of the calming waters of the Gulf of Mexico to watch those breathtaking sunsets every evening. The second guest bedroom also has a private balcony.

Beach Palms property is well maintained for your pleasure with security on site. Our condo has one ground level private parking space.We also have a surprise closet filled with various items such as beach toys, floats, ice chest and beach chairs for your use. We do not monitor these items and they are always changing depending on our guests’ contributions and use.

Wonderful Set Up!

The condo is as advertised, beautiful views from Family Room, Master, and Kitchen of the Gulf at all times. Large balcony with spiral stairs is a huge bonus as it leads directly to the beach and pool with no hassles of elevator or waiting. Surf fishing each morning was nice, balcony was also great for a cigar smoker. The beach is wide and private, volleyball court next door. It was perfect for our family of grown kids in college and large enough to have their friends visit throughout the week. The beach closet has all that you would need including fishing poles, beach towels, chairs, etc. Friendly Tavern Karaoke was so much fun we went twice and it is walking distance. We look forward to returning again.

Great location

Very conveniently located, and the view is obviously great. The master bath layout is a bit unique for the able bodied. However, it’s a great setup for someone using a walker. There’s even a portable shower seat. It’s also very close to the elevator, and has a nice open flow. The owners are pleasant as well.

Communication

The condo was great! The owner did not know about work being done at the condos. There was no communication from the property management company that there would be maintenance work, a jack hammer, all week. It was not relaxing But the owner was very considerate and worked with me with this situation. Please if you are booking a unit- make sure you ask what type of work will be done while you are there. That way neither of you are surprised.

October Family Getaway

This Indian Shore Condo was a fantastic find and I am so fortunate to have stayed here for a week with my husband, 2 adult children and 2 grandsons, ages 5 & 7. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit is quite large, clean, very comfortable with all the essential amenities and more. The location can't be beat, with private steps off the balcony you are only a few feet away from the beach and pool. Great location, nearby to many restaurants and attractions. No reason to leave paradise but with grandchildren I made exceptions with trips to Zoo Tampa and the Aquarium. Easy to check-in and check-out. Vi and her daughter Dawn, were very accommodating and responsive to our call with questions about the AC and Internet. I highly recommend this condo for a vacation stay and look forward to returning.

The AC went out and even though I called the wrong #, Dawn got it fixed quickly. Very nice owners and they will quickly fix any issues in the condo. I would highly recommend this rental. Very large 3 bedroom condo with a spectacular ocean view. Beautiful, clean and comfortable. Thanks, Vi and Dawn, for a great week!

Beach Palms Never Disappoints!

This property was exactly as advertised! Spacious with plenty of room. The VIEW! The oceanview deck gave spectacular sunsets and ease to the pool and beach with the connecting stairs. There are plenty of pool/sand toys and chairs for the beach. Vie and Dawn were great to communicate with and quick to answer any questions. We enjoyed our vacation and R&R on the beach. There is alot to do in the area and only a short drive to Clearwater or St. Pete for added shopping and restaurants! This is our 3rd year staying and we will be back! Thanks again for everything!

74 degrees

The condo was absolutely gorgeous, beautiful sunsets, and the great beaches. The one negative was the air condition. It needs to be replaced.It had to be set @ 74 or higher or it could freeze up. It was a very warm and we had a choice of opening the window for a breeze or shut all blinds to try to keep the temperature wouldn’t go up and miss the view.

About the host

Hosted by Violet Himley

Host profile image
Vie HImley is an original owner in this condo building. She and George surprised the family after a trip to Treasure Island in 1989 when they returned home and advised that they had bought a condo on the beach! It was always their dream to move from Illinois to Florida in their earlier years, but it never worked out. The condo has been the center of the extended family's fun times since 1991. Many grandchildren learned to swim in the condo's pool. Vie has loved to share her 2nd home with guests for all these years, and hopes that you love the condo and area as much as she and her family do.

Why they chose this property

It had to be on the beach, it had to be nice and quiet, it had to have good restaurants around, and lots to do, or nothing to do. When they saw the sales trailer that spring, 1989, they knew the location was perfect!
