A romantic beach getaway, family beach holiday, Florida vacation rental, and Outback Bowl Beach House, all wrapped in one! This luxury Florida vacation rental house is located on Indian Rocks Beach, Florida, a quiet but thriving island community located on the Upper Gulf Coast of Florida. This Florida Beachhouse is close to stores, restaurants, and recreational activities, yet it is private and has its own beautifully-landscaped backyard and Gulffront.
FL Sundowner, a comfortable Gulffront Florida self-catered vacation rental, is an upscale beachhouse perfect for family holidays, family get-togethers, beach retreats, other beach gatherings and 'de-stessing' from everyday pressures. The toughest decisions you'll have to make will be where to go for dinner and which tropical concoctions you'll brew up next in the blender!
The Beachhouse
This Indian Rocks Beach vacation rental is a spacious, private, and clean Florida vacation rental house that boasts 3 bedrooms with walk-in closets, 2 baths and a large office with high-speed internet (for those of you who just cannot leave work at home). A lovely covered lower deck looks out over the Gulf of Mexico and houses the BBQ and dining seating for your beachside grilling and dining pleasure. The beach home is very tranquil and relaxing, particularly the lovely upper deck that looks out over the Gulf of Mexico and the World's best sunsets ever.
Indian Rocks Beach
Indian Rocks Beach is a quiet town along 3 miles of white sand beach that was initially developed in the 1920s as a weekend getaway destination for wealthy inland residents. A barrier island 24 miles from Tampa International Airport, Indian Rocks Beach is sunny nearly every day, with historical temperatures ranging from 54 to 90 degrees F. Since the Florida Gulfcoast is the leeward side of the state, the Gulf of Mexico is usually pretty calm, with the larger waves on the Atlantic Coast of Florida. Indian Rocks Beach is a facilities-rich community as evidenced by miles of pristine beach, many parks and recreational facilities such as tennis and basketball courts, a ball field, and its most recent addition, a state of the art skateboard park.
So grab your spot on the sand and begin to relax your worries away. If you prefer to be more active, we have that too. From parasailing to deep sea fishing, shopping, dining, boat and jet ski rentals, gambling or dinner cruises, we have it all at this Florida beachfront vacation rental

Relaxing beach getaway
This beachfront property is an excellent choice for families, especially those with young children. The house offers ample space, with multiple bedrooms and a spacious living area. Its location is a major highlight, with direct beach access and within walking distance to a variety of excellent restaurants, ice cream and coffee shops. The outdoor areas are particularly appealing. The fenced yard provides a safe space for young children to play, and there's even a wild bunny that kids might enjoy spotting. The back deck offers stunning ocean views and is perfect for watching beautiful sunsets. Inside, the house is well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully stocked kitchen. The dining room offers lovely views of the ocean through sliding doors. Kathleen, the host, deserves high praise for her responsiveness and attentiveness. She quickly addressed questions and concerns, and checked in during the stay to make sure all is going well. Overall, this rental property stands out for its prime beachfront location, family-friendly features, and excellent hosting, making it a top choice for those seeking a relaxing beach getaway.

Perfection
This was a great house for our family. It works so well for families with smaller children. The yard is fenced and they had freedom to be outside. There is even a wild bunny, which they loved. A thumbs up to a house that meets the needs for a carefree time.

We had an emergency last-minute booking. The owner was super responsive and helpful in working out details in a very short amount of time. Quick reminder for review readers: if you have a larger group: bring your own extra toilet paper!!

Perfect Getaway
Location, location, location. With a beautiful stretch of beach right in your backyard, what more could you ask for? The house had plenty of space for us and our kids, and had pretty much everything we needed for the week. Kathleen answered questions very quickly and was very responsive in all interactions. We can't wait to come back!

Summer 2023 Family Vacation
We absolutely loved the property. We are a family of 8 (6 children) and we had plenty of space. The living room was large and spacious. I loved the sectional!! We could all pile on there. The kitchen had everything we needed. Even an ice maker!!! I loved sitting in the dining room and looking out the sliding doors to the ocean. Kathleen was great to work with. She was always quick to reply and help with anything that I needed. I have two things I absolutely loved about the cottage: 1. Location - We could walk to restaurants and ice cream places. 2. Back deck - My husband and I watched the sunsets every night and it was incredible! We will definitely be coming back.

Kathleen is AMAZING!!
The house was just as described. Beautiful view of the ocean! Love the fenced yard. Outside shower was so convenient to wash all the sand off when you walk back on your private pathway from the beach! Kathleen was the most helpful host ever!!! She went above and beyond with anything we needed. She also left a gift & fresh flowers. Thank you for our memorable stay Kathleen!!!

Beautiful on the beach
Beautiful property right on the beach. We had a great time. Only small thing was that we did notice some small sugar ants in various rooms and the primary shower had a small crack in the floor making the floor soft in one spot. But that didn’t change the fact that we had a great time and we would come back again! Communication was superb with the property manager.

Perfect getaway
Kathleen was an amazing host, always prompt to respond, checked in during our stay to make sure everything was going well and even let us check in early which was a huge plus because we got In from virginia earlier than expected with two small kids. The house was very clean, beds were really comfortable, it had everything we needed to relax on the beach AND it was right on the water, which again was super ideal with two small kids coming back from the beach. Will definitely book with her again!

Amazing place!
Place was easy to find and plenty of parking space for 2-3 cars(we only had one but plenty of space for more) we found the place to be clean and comfortable! Perfect location on the beach with very short trail from back gate to the sand. Back porch is amazing views for coffee in morning or watch the sunset. The place had plenty of space inside we never felt cramped for the 4 of us and could have accommodated more easily. We would definitely revisit this house and area!

December trip to the beach
We loved our stay in Indian Rocks. The location was outstanding. We woke up to amazing views every morning and watched incredible sunsets every evening. There are plenty of places to eat within walking distance or a short drive. We also enjoyed driving to Johns Pass for dinner (15 minute drive) and Clearwater (< 15 minute drive). We can't wait to go back!!!

Great spot, great management, great experience.
This gem is located in the heart of Indian Rocks Beach close to everything. It is a perfect spot for a family gathering. We had 11 and fit comfortably. The downstairs under the house open area is great for having extra company, the small grassy area in the back is perfect for kids to play, and then of course the beach is only steps away. I highly recommend!

Milestone Birthday celebration
This place was amazing. After being in Orlando for a golf tournament to celebrate my daughter's 30th birthday, we wanted something laid back and beachy for my husband's 60th birthday. We got everything we wanted in the place. We could sit out on the covered deck and listen to the ocean and watch people walk the beach. We had a lot of places to eat within walking distance. Will definitely try to get back at this same time of year.

The way to spend New Year’s!
This property was great! Kathleen was prompt in communicating with us throughout. We had several adults, teenagers, and a little one…everyone had a great time. The kitchen is well stocked even for some unexpected items like a steamer basketr. There is also plenty of beach items (towels, mats, chairs, etc). Ultimately though, the view and beach access are spectacular!
