Adventure seekers can explore the blue waters by renting jet skis, parasails, or boats just minutes away. Downtown St. Pete is a short drive and is sprinkled with a classic mix of restaurants, beach bars, and shopping, along with the famous Salvador Dali Museum, award-winning Fort De Soto Park, and the St. Petersburg Pier. For the sports fan, the always competitive and entertaining Tampa Bay Rays are a hop, skip, and a jump away.

Quiet and close to the beach!
Not a huge building so not as much foot traffic and noise from building. Pool was nice and just the right temp especially when the ocean was cold however hot tub was almost too hot and was better suited for an Alaskan vacation. Overall great place to stay! Family friendly!

Good stay but….
The property and location was great. Condo is renovated with a few things that could use some attention. Folding closet doors wont stay on Tracks, towel rack in master bath is loose, and the transition from living room flooring into kitchen flooring is loose and is a trip hazard. Otherwise the property is nice. Management needs work on customer service and general communication skills.

Nice and Fragrant
Nice small condo facing Gulf Blvd and public beach parking. Not a lot of amenities for cooking, just the bare basics. The Condo had at least 4 electronic “room fresheners”, which were overpowering.
