Great location and views
We had some excitement on our first night as a high speed chase culminated with a women being shot by a Pinellas county swat team in front of the property at 2AM. This woke us all up and was fairly scary for our family/children. It resulted in us not being able to leave the property until the following evening. The property location and views were as described. On our final full day we had contractors showing up to do work on the property at 10AM asking us questions about soffit and facia repairs and coming in and out of the unit. The cleanliness of the unit was ok, but the beds in the spare bedrooms had sand in them and we ended up washing the sheets ourselves. One of the spare bedrooms gets a ton of noise from being right above the Street. Internet and cable were spotty. In parts of the unit the internet won’t connect, You had to be near the router. It’s great location great views, but the interior was a little rough around the edges and our experience was negative due to the shooting on the first night, which ruined the first day our trip and the contractors who disturbed our group unannounced on the last day. Owner did not ask if it was ok for them to come. They just showed up.

It checks a lot of boxes but it needs attention
First off, we had a great time. The unit was spacious, the back deck was massive, and the pool was great for the kids. And really, you can’t beat the location and amazing views. That being said the place is aging and showing signs of wear and tear. We are not super picky but we do like when things are well kept and we appreciate that packaged-fresh hotel feel and this place doesn’t offer that. You can definitely achieve that feeling in this area for the price but you’d likely sacrifice the pool and all the extra space. So I suppose it’s a trade off. Overall we enjoyed our vacation but this place just lacks a lot of attention to detail and has some cosmetic issues that are bordering on maintenance issues. And most of the furniture was not real comfy. Despite all of this, wonderful family memories were made and we would book this again if the price were lower.

We throughly enjoyed our time in FL. Not a drop of rain the entire week! The space was perfect for our adult boys and their girls. Check in can’t be any easier. The covered porch was perfect! The house is a bit older, but very comfortable. The elevator made it easy on my knees. I’d stay here again!

Great Place
This property is located on a quiet strip of land, called the Narrows. The views from the balcony are amazing and the beach is quiet. You can enjoy shell collecting, dolphin and manatee watching, swimming and fishing right at your footsteps. The property is clean, and just as listed. The elevator makes it very easy to load all of your belongings on it, and it will take then to the third-floor for you, which makes Checking in and checking out easy. We greatly enjoyed staying at this property.

Comfortable housing
Really nice, private place. Only 2 other units share your private peace on the beach. The home has plenty of space to relax and the bed was very comfortable. I enjoyed my morning coffee time sitting on the balcony listening to the waves. My husband and son enjoyed the large screen television to watch the games. Kitchen has lots of counter space too. Would rent this unit again.

All your paying for is the gulf view
All your paying for is the view, let me just start with that. The listing offers a beautiful front and back deck; but you can’t even use the front one. You step one foot on it and it pulls away from the house. Very unsafe! Immediately upon arrival as we started putting our stuff away, we could barely use any of the closet space. This was due to the fact the owners had “personal items” taking up the spaces. Not to mention the decor was not updated and they had personal photos and pictures everywhere. On the listing they offered an elevator, which I thought was lovely sense my grandmother was going on this trip. But it was very rickety and not to mention did not come with any instructions. Even though it states very clearly on the elevator to read the instructions. Again, very unsafe! They also offer a game room with a ping pong table. But in reality all it is is a dingy looking garage with the Utilities for the house. Not to mention you have to go through said garage to get to the pool. This is due to the fact the spiral staircase, they mention as well, is rusting away. Again very unsafe! So overall the experience of the trip was fun, but we probably are never coming back here. We should’ve stayed somewhere else. Sorry to say but it’s the truth.

Great place for families who need a little extra room. Excellent beach view
We loved our stay. The location is great. the house overall met all our needs. It's an older house so there are a few things that need some updating but none of that bothered us too much. overall it was clean and just what we needed. Never figured out how to use the elevator. If you don't mind walking the stairs, this is a good property.

Spring Break at Indian Shores
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was very comfortable and offered every amenity we could possibly need. We loved having private balconies facing both east and west. This condo has so much room we were able to enjoy privacy as well as time together. The beach is beautiful and not very crowded. There are several great places to eat nearby. We would highly recommend this property to others!

Best beach condo I have stayed in
Joyce's Beachhouse is by far the best oceanfront condo I have stayed in. The condo was extremely clean, very well furnished and it had anything you could possibly need. The kitchen was stacked with all kinds of pots and pans, there were plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, games, etc. The communication with the rental company was very good. AND the view was to die for!!! The terrace is huge, you do not need much else. I would definitely stay there again!

Location was perfect
Right on the beach as described. Easy access to local restaurants and groceries. The third floor suite was very comfortable. Elevator did not work and we had a few issues to discuss with the property manager. He responded with a phone call within 24 hours and was very friendly. The property could use some upgrades. We did not focus on the problems. My family made long-lasting memories at Indian Shores, Florida.

About the host

Hosted by Carter Vacation Rentals

Host profile image
Here is just a quick overview of my career along with a few of Carter Vacation strengths in the rental industry. I have been involved in the hospitality field most of my life. After graduating from Boston University back in 1986 I got my start working as a night auditor in a small hotel in Boston. I was instantly fascinated with this industry and wanted to know everything about it. I enjoyed finding new ways to improve the overall experience for the guests and in doing so, I was promoted often. I learned all aspects of each department and through the years I became the General Manager of some well-known hotels and upscale boutique inns. During my corporate career as a General Manager of a Hyatt Hotel in Tampa Florida, I had an opportunity to manage a small beach vacation rental along the shores of the Gulf. Simply put…I was hooked. This became my new passion and career. My wife and I had stayed in vacation rentals in the past with mixed feelings about our stays, I knew there was room for improvement in the Vacation Rental business and I was excited to get started. My team and I have worked hard over the years and I feel our success at Carter Coastal Vacation Rentals is from having a variety of vacation property options that suits each guests needs and budget. We also have chosen to keep Carter Vacation Rental business relatively small in order to maintain a personable connection with each of our new arrivals. I, along with my team understand the importance of anticipating the guest's needs as well as treating each guest with complete respect during their vacation getaway. We take great pride in serving you. We are here for you. So choose one of our properties and soon you will be enjoying a "little slice of paradise" on the beautiful barrier island. Hope to "see ya" on the Beach Bruce Carter

Why they chose this property

Historically the most beautiful section of the barrier Island located between Clearwater beach and St Pete beach. Friendly quaint beach community. Tampa airport is just 25 miles away.

What makes this property unique

On the Beach ! Feels like a private beach and the views are unbeatable. Heated Gulf side Pool for our guests
