Lovely Home
We really enjoyed this home for our girls weekend! Its in the perfect location and has beautiful views. Quite area and easy beach access. The dock is very peaceful and the perfect place to be when the sun rises. The property management was great. Very helpful and attentive to our questions/needs. I would book this place again and recommend it to others.

Luxurious and Relaxing Getaway
This house exceeded our expectations! The decor was stunning, and the amenities were top-notch. We especially loved the elevator for getting our luggage upstairs, and the hot tub overlooking the intercoastal was perfect for enjoying a glass of wine. The location couldn’t have been better – with easy access to the beach and the Gulf of Mexico. We spent our mornings sipping coffee while watching the sunrise, kayaking in the afternoon, and relaxing in the hot tub in the evenings. It’s also close to great local attractions and wonderful restaurants. A dream vacation spot we’ll definitely return to!

Luxury Price, not a Luxury Experience
I visited with 5 other professional friend couples on a group trip. The house was in a great location, and the pool was very nice. Cannot comment on the hot tub as we did not use it. However, I feel like the property was poorly managed for a few reasons. 1. The AC would not go below 73 degrees and we were all miserable throughout the night because of how hot and humid it was. When we attempted to turn it down, it would reset to 73. 2. Unusable grills. The big green egg had maggots in it and the other was out of propane. 3. Checkout was at 10am and a guy we believe to be the cleaning person entered unannounced at 9:55 while we were still there. He didn’t knock, and it felt very creepy as he was sitting in his car outside for over 30 minutes watching us. I’ve also never been in a VRBO where we needed to wash and put away dishes. Do not plan to sleep in on checkout day for these reasons. 4. The back door to the patio was broken. They left a note on the door about it (no message before check in), but the deadbolt was broken so anyone could’ve broken into it. 5. Some areas such as the outdoor bar sink and downstairs shower were not very clean and had dirt/grime on them. 6. They did not supply any extra toilet paper or paper towels or trash bags, so we had to buy our own. We ran out of these products after 1 day. 7. The trash from the previous renter wasn’t taken out. While this house has a lot of potential, we were very disappointed given how expensive it was.

Awesome spot
Great home for families and kids. Plenty of room and things to keep you entertained. Pool overlooking the sound is pretty neat. Private pier to fish from is great. Short walk to the beach. Super convenient location. My only complaint is it is missing alot of lightbulbs in some of the lights inside and out and some general maintence would really make it perfect. Other than that its great! We will be back for sure.

Family Vacation
House was accommodating for our group of 10. Overall house was clean and the location was perfect. House could use some updating. Patio furniture was poor, gas grill barely heated up. Lights burnt out, challenges with many light switches that seemed to have no function. Host did respond quickly and assisted with our elevator issue. Overall the house was well furnished as well as the kitchen. Just seemed the house needed some maintenance/repairs.

Great Weekend Stay
The location of this vacation rental is fantastic. We enjoyed both waterways, and got out on the kayaks for a sunrise paddle on our last day there. The kids loved the pool, the parents loved the hot tub, and the house was comfortable for the baby shower we hosted. The showers besides the master suite shower were slow to warm, and did not ever get fully hot. The downstairs shower was slow to drain. The room advertising 2 queens includes an uncomfortable sofa sleeper. The room advertising a bunk bed and queen bed, sleeps 2 comfortably. The loft bed is cute, but not a comfortable place to sleep. We loved the use of the well stocked kitchen, beach towels, and pool toys. The living, dining, and porch spaces are wonderful. I would definitely rent this unit again for a group that needs 1 king, 4 queen beds, & 1 double bed. The proximity to the mangroves and beach is delightful.

Our Stay in the Peach House
The size and location of this house is a plus. The pool and hot tub are a nice bonus overlooking the intercoastal. We had 4 couples in the house and everyone enjoyed the week. There were some issues that were not easily overcome. No welcome/instruction booklet for operation of the TVs, the pool and hot tub, the AC, etc. So we had to figure stuff out as we went. We discovered the dishwasher was broken and reported this on day one and it was not fixed until day 4. Also there was a layer of dust on and around the electronics and under the furniture.

Perfect Home for our Stay
With this house you get to enjoy both sunrises on the intercoastal and sunsets at the beach! We enjoyed the hot tub and infinity pool when we weren't spending time at the beach. Great location to enjoy many restaurants, shopping, and other activities. Owners were very responsive to any questions that popped up. Perfect house for large groups and families.

A spectacular property with all the indoor and outdoor amenities you need to make your trip a great success. The property owners thought of everything you need, including games ,grills,kayaks and toys, to make every day an adventure. You only need to show up with ypur suitcases and nothing else. You and your family will have a fun filled day without ever leaving the property. You wont be disappointed.

Spacious and Spectacular
Overall, the home is amazing. We did arrive a day after Tropical Storm Idalia and that is the only reason I gave a 4 star rating for cleanliness, (which only pertains to outside the home). There is plenty of room to move around as we had a group of 12 adults. The pool had a great view of the bay and the evening view was nice. The beach is literally across the street. There are wagons, and plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach towels for the beach. There are floaties for the pool and lots of toys for the kiddos. There were two kayaks and a paddle board, which unfortunately we did not have time to use. The surrounding areas around the house were very quiet. Inside the home, we had plenty of dishware and cookware to use and plenty of seating with a table inside and outside the main living area. The bathrooms had plenty of towels to use, and a laundry facility to use if you should need to wash. There is an elevator in the home for easy transport of luggage and groceries to the upstairs area. The home has 3 levels, with decks surrounding most of the home. I would definitely recommend this home and would not hesitate to rent on our next visit to the area.

Daughter’s 50th birthday celebration
Truly a wonderful vacation spot! House was clean, just as the pictures displayed and the location was perfect. The house sets back a way from the road, so you don’t hear the cars on the busy street. And there was no loud music or noise from condos on left. The beach was just across the street and there is a crosswalk signal to stop traffic to help you get across. House was fully stocked in kitchen with plenty of soap in bathrooms and laundry pods. Fully stocked dishwasher pods and garbage bags. Greatly appreciated! Beautiful clean pool and hot tub and walkway out to the bay. Any minor issues we had was quickly solved by Darcy who was kind and understanding . Plenty of beach accessories and towels for the beach. Only negative was the grill which needs replaced. But this house is very well taken care of and I’m sure it will be replaced. Hope to be able to visit again and stay here. One word of advice: make reservations to eat. Restaurants very busy. BC

Excellent location! Very clean!
We rented this house for my daughters graduation from UT. We had 7 adults 3 teen Agers and a 21/2 year old. We fit very comfortably with extra room. The location to the beach was great and the house had plenty of beach chairs. The pool and the hot tub where nice to enjoy. We enjoyed our coffee on the deck and saw dolphins and boats go by. The TVs where hard to figure out and the grills weren’t clean at all and the house smelt a little musty when we first got there. But that didn’t affect our stay at all if we had been staying longer I would have liked a clean grill. We stayed four nights so we didn’t do a lot of cooking. The beds where comfortable and there were plenty of towels and blanket. The elevator wasn’t working when we arrived. The home owner was very responsive and it was fixed the next day. I would definitely rent this house again. We had a great time!

Great home right across the street from the beach and close to several great restaurants. Check in was very easy and included photos with instructions. Kitchen was well stocked, beds comfortable, plenty of towels provided including beach towels. We had a tough time trying to figure out some of the TVs in the bedrooms, lots of remotes per tv and no instructions. All in all I would definitely recommend this property and we plan to come back next year!

Nice property but needs TLC
We enjoyed our stay but there were lots of little items that needed repair/improvement. Darcy and Matt, the owners, were responsive and did the best they could but the house needs a handy man to fix/update many issues: When we arrived the main floor AC was not working and with 3 bedrooms and the kitchen/DR/LR on that level, 77 was really warm, especially for sleeping. Very few of the windows actually function for opening so no cross breeze available-which would have been a huge plus being that we were located on the strip of land between the Intercoastal and the ocean. The main doorwall had apparently been out of commission for months (as the homeowner stated the part was on back order for that long) so you have to exit the side of the house and walk around to use the deck. To the owners credit they had an AC guy come the next morning and rig the AC to work for the main floor. For some reason that made the AC upstairs (3rd floor) go into overdrive and it was 63 in the master bedroom & bath the whole week, which was chilly. This was even with the unit upstairs turned completely off. In the office upstairs the ceiling fan did not work so owner offered to replace with another he had in the basement. He was able to remove the broken one, but not replace it. Again, to the owners credit they went to the store and bought 4 box fans to help cool the rooms down. We appreciated that. Neither the fridge in the office nor the ice maker in the main kitchen worked. They bought us bagged ice and came back with a portable ice maker the next day. The pool & spa managed to work most of the week, but it overflows into the Sandy area they built overlooking the Intercoastal. Pool guy said they have a “leak issue”. BBQ was in rough shape and all the solar lights that guide you out to the end of the dock are dry rotted and broken. We also replaced ping pong and dart board equipment as it was all trashed. The have 3 or 4 bikes none of which are functioning. Flat tires, broken chains etc and of the two sea kayaks one has a good paddle, the other is duct taped together. The whole garage area needs a good cleaning- full of kids toys, buckets and wagons full of sand. All relatively minor fixes but at the price we paid, you expect more from a property like this. The area is nice. Walk to beach is short. All the furniture and and beds are comfortable. Decorated nicely. We didn’t have any problems with the elevator. We made the most of our stay, & the owners were kind

Great Location!
You really cannot find a better location than this property. We had our own pool overlooking the Intercoastal and then, about 500 steps away is the Gulf of Mexico with beach access! Setting in between many great restaurants both north & south, the property was quiet as it set back of Gulf Blvd. Fishing is fun in the Gulf and off the private dock in the back of the property. Big kitchen with luxury appliances, dinner seating for 8 comfortably plus more at the kitchen island. Great wrap around deck on main level for morning sunrises & coffee, then another wrap around deck at the top level. Owners were easy to work with and very responsive to all of our questions. If you have a group of 8 and want to be at Indian Shores or IRB (Indian Rocks Beach), this is the place! If we come back with the family, this will be our first choice.
