Beach Fun With Views - Indian Shores, Florida
Gene was a first rate host. The condo was as described and worth the price. The beach is awesome. We had plenty of room for the 5 of us w/3bdrm.

Luxe BeachHouseB with Hot Tub, 2 min Walk to Beach
This was a great location to the beach. Very clean and well appointed kitchen. Bathrooms were large and lots of private outdoor space. Roof deck was excellent for watching sunsets! Master shower head needs replacing and 2nd floor bedroom fan had a short. I would stay here again. Host was responsive and arranged for us to have a golf cart which was perfect!

Beachy Paradise
Beautiful little house, only a 1 block walk to the beach. Many restaurants, bars, shopping areas all within walking distance. The sound of the pickle ball players and laughter in the park while sitting on the back patio was a very nice touch! Overall fantastic experience, we will be back!!

Direct Ocean View Top Floor Renovated. 2BR, 2 Bath
Perfection! Scott was such a responsive and accommodating host. Scott knew we had an early flight, and he let us check in as soon as their place was ready. Scott even made sure there was a pack n play for our little one, which exceeded our expectations. The location directly on the beach made sunsets after a busy day so relaxing. We got to see a lot of seabirds and dolphins right from the balcony. Everything we needed was there. The place was very clean throughout with a fully functioning kitchen and all necessary beach supplies. We made unforgettable memories for our first Florida family vacation, and we could not have asked for a better location with the best host. Thank you so much!

Arie Dam 302, Beach Front Condo - 2Bed/2Bath
We had a great time. The beach was awesome. There is a huge sandbar that we could walk out to depending on the tides. Our three kids enjoyed the extras that were left over so they had plenty of peach toys. There is a restaurant across the street and we were fortunate to go out fishing and bring back fish that the restaurant happily cooks for us with sides or as tacos. We walked to Johns pass and enjoyed all of the shops and a couple drinks. This is an amazing location and the host is super accommodating. It has everything you need for a great vacation. We look forward to coming back very soon. Definitely five stars.!!

Heated Pool & Hot Tub 0.7 mile from Beach
We came to the west coast to celebrate Mother’s Day with our daughter who lives here. Aaron and Amy’s home was perfect, We were greeted with a nice basket of goodies. The home was impeccably clean and decorated so welcoming. Not to mention the beds were so comfy, The home was equipped with everything you would need. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

Beach Bungalow -Step in to the Sand! Indian Shores
We had a wonderful stay at this charming beachfront bungalow! The interior is beautifully updated, and you can literally step off the porch and right onto the sand, it doesn’t get better than that. The location is ideal: peaceful, less crowded beaches, and a relaxing atmosphere that was perfect for us! While the bungalow is quite small, it was cozy and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Just a heads-up: only four bath towels are provided and there’s no laundry in the unit, so plan accordingly. The bungalow is also close to public beach access, which meant some beachgoers set up in front of us at times, but there was still plenty of space to enjoy. Rachel was an excellent host, very responsive and accommodating. We had an early flight and she made sure we were able to check in a bit early, which we really appreciated. Everything in the unit worked as expected, we had a great vacation. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a quiet beachfront getaway!

Beach days and sunshine—what more could you want?
We had an amazing time staying at Cyndi's house this past week. The house was perfect and so close to the beach. We really enjoyed being able to sit on the deck and see the ocean. We will definitely be coming back to Cyndi's place in the future.

Seaside Artisan *Dog Friendly* 5
Fabulous accommodation, very near Old Town Dunedin and the marina. Definitely captured the vintage, old Florida vibe. The host was very friendly and made sure to extend a helping hand if anything was needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

MARGARITAVILLE ACROSS THE STREET FROM BEACH ACCESS
MARGARITAVILLE was a great stay! Very easy check-in process, friendly owners, lots of amenities including free use of beach chairs, coolers, carts, basically anything you’d need for a beach day. Easy access to the beach and so many restaurants and things to do in the area. This is an end unit so it felt very private with its own little tiki like patio. The bed was very soft and dipped oddly in the middle- we found it difficult to sleep in but it wasn’t horrible. The unit could use some cleaning touch-ups and mold removal in areas like the shower. Otherwise very clean- the sheets and towels smell amazing! One last thing- there is some type of bar behind the building that played music pretty late but it wasn’t too disturbing. It did not affect our stay- just a warning for those who are very sensitive to sounds at night. It would not deter us from booking again!

Wonderful family friendly home in Dunedin FL
This Airbnb is conveniently located for visiting Dunedin. One of the best features is the large open concept. Great for families!

Adorable Dog-Friendly Cottage in Quaint Dunedin
Barbara was a great host. She responded so quickly to my questions. Her cottage was immaculate, organized and had everything you would need to feel like you were at home. Location was walking distance to downtown and the Pinellas County Trail was across the street. It was great to be able to have our dog with us. Fenced in area to let him out. Barbara even had dog treats!!

Close to all with a King-bed! Bikes included
Great host , very accommodating, very clean and all the amenities you can ask for , highly recommend to anyone staying in the area

Serene Waterfront Cottage with Tranquil Setting
This is our second time renting this home because it’s so great! It’s also the perfect location for my son’s tennis training. Krista always responds quickly with any questions. One of these days I’m gonna use that beautiful backyard. Maybe when I come back in August.

Banana Mania Cottage 3 - few miles to beaches
Beautiful, peaceful, cozy cottage in a quiet neighborhood. The place was perfect and just as described in the listing. Highly recommended this host and their listings. A+++++

Beautiful Home In S Tampa Near Water & Downtown
My husband and I stumbled on this place for a last minute, short trip to Tampa and it was amazing - very spacious and more than two of us really needed, but such a lovely stay! The walk to the bay took maybe 1 minute, and it was a wonderful, private location to get back to when we weren’t out and about. It’s a great spot with a great host, and we would love to come back and stay, especially if we travel with some family. Thanks, Jason!

** Home Away From Home **
Diana was a great host! We had a blast celebrating my bachelorette trip, it was the perfect place.

THE HOUSE - 32 Steps to the Beach - Beautiful Clearwater Beach Home just across from the Beach - Drive to your door.
This was our 2nd stay and it was just as pleasant as the first time! The extremely short walk right across the street to the beach, quiet neighborhood, less crowded section of the beach, along with the close proximity to restaurants makes it the perfect little getaway! It's probably the most well stocked home with everything you can think of needing (including both a hot pot and tea pot for your tea, beach towels, beach chairs, wagons, boogie boards ECT) It's a clean, comfortable place that makes us feel right at home. We also love the option of the hot tub to relax in for the evening. The hosts are very kind/helpful. It's the perfect little beach getaway. Thank you again! This place has a special place in our hearts. Happy memories made!

Waterfront Luxury Heated Pool/Hot Tub 5 bedrooms
The house was well stocked and very clean. The pool was at a perfect temperature and also clean. Location was great, close to many restaurants and beaches. Great for a family vacation with little ones. The host was very friendly and easy to communicate with. The only downside (to be expected) is the number of biting bugs in the morning/evening - there were no outdoor screened in areas, and there were a lot of raccoons that came into the backyard at night. Not a great place to spend nights outside, but this is discouraged by the host understandably, as the house is in a neighborhood with mostly locals. All in all it was a great experience and we would recommend it to friends/family, and stay again.

SPARKLING HOT Modern Pool Home- Minutes to beach!
We didn’t want to leave and we’d come back! 2 important things you want your guests to say when they leave. The garage was stocked with beach equipment, the pool was perfect, the backyard was private, the kitchen and bathrooms were high end, and the beds were comfortable. This was exactly what we needed. We can’t wait to stay again in the future! Close to the beach, John’s Pass, Target and Walmart, Gulf Blvd….this home had it all.

Huge & Heated Pool Home 5 Minutes Away from Beach!
Mark's place was great. I would definitely stay there again with my family highly recommend his place.

Your guide to St Petersburg
All About St. Petersburg
Florida has many great beach towns, but few deliver the combination of world-class culture and relaxed vibes found in St. Petersburg. Situated between the Gulf of Mexico and Tampa Bay, you’ll find warm weather and almost daily sunshine at St. Petersburg’s award-winning beaches. Even if you don’t step foot on the sandy shore, the city offers a wealth of activities including sophisticated dining, chic nightlife, standout breweries, and great shopping. If you’re into performing arts, check out the European-style Mahaffey Theater with classic glamour and picture-perfect views of the waterfront.
When you’re ready to head offshore, St. Petersburg’s barrier islands offer miles of gorgeous white sand beaches where you can catch fabulous sunsets.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in St Petersburg
From October through March, you’ll find quite warm temperatures, little rainfall, and plenty of sun. Summer is a popular time for booking vacation rentals in St. Petersburg as Florida sunshine draws people to the beach, but prepare yourself for Florida’s famous humidity, which makes the heat index rise. Hurricanes are common in August and September, so keep an eye on the weather and be sure to prepare for plenty of rain from nearby tropical storms. Winters are mild and pleasant, but you may still want to bring some layers for the occasional cold night. The area’s biggest event is the annual seafood festival at St. John’s Pass in January, which has been going strong for more than 40 years.
Top things to do in St Petersburg
Fort De Soto Park
Comprising five interconnected islands known as keys, and offering over 1,000 acres to explore, Fort De Soto Park is abundant with wildlife, mangroves, and wetlands, and plays an important role in protecting and preserving the region’s natural environment. Fishing is permitted in designated areas, and there are plenty of places to swim, as well as campgrounds and boat rentals. This is an especially great pick for birders as 328 species of birds have been found inside the park boundary.
Sunken Gardens
This beautiful botanical paradise offers a tranquil escape from the city. This 100-year-old garden is home to more than 50,000 tropical plants and flowers, some of which are the oldest plants in the entire country. The garden’s winding paths, hidden groves, and waterfalls frame tropical plants from around the world. If you’d like, you can book guided tours or attend one of the special horticultural programs they host throughout the year.
Art Museums
St. Petersburg has a vibrant art scene and is home to a number of notable art museums. Visit the world-renowned Salvador Dalí Museum to see the largest collection of the artist’s work outside of Spain, and stop by the Morean Arts Center for a large permanent collection of masterpieces by a world-renowned glass artist. For more historical artwork viewing, check out The Museum of Fine Arts for art collections and historical objects covering almost 5,000 years of civilization and fascinating traveling exhibitions. When finished with the museums, take a trip down to the 600 Block, where eateries and bars attract crowds in the evening.
