ON THE BEACH COZY CONDO, OCEAN VIEWS, STEPS FROM THE WATER, AT THE HEART OF IRB

Looking for the perfect setting for a memorable vacation with family or friends? Look no more! This is a fabulous family-friendly condo that is part of a small beach front complex of only 7 units, so no crowded, noisy beaches. Our space does not directly overlook the Gulf of Mexico, but DOES offer a nice glimpse of it from the balcony. The unit is one floor above the parking garage and you will get to the condo by walking up stairs (around 15 steps). The stairs are a little steep, so please keep it in mind. NO ELEVATOR, sorry!

Once you are parked the beach life really begins. Parking space is a hot commodity on the beach, but this unit has one assigned spot. In full disclosure, some people find it tight, but it is big enough to fit an SUV. A bit of maneuvering or backing up into the parking spot may be necessary depending on your vehicle's size. There is also one guest parking spot between the two buildings in the property, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Restaurants and bars are within walking distance, so no need to move your vehicle frequently while you are here!

This updated unit offers an inviting and practical open-floor plan. The living room has a queen size sleeper sofa and love seat , and a smart TV loaded with apps and cable TV. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary appliances, and furnishings you may need to cook. The cozy master bedroom suite has a full bathroom, closet space, a queen size bed and a smart TV. The second bedroom includes new twin beds, smart TV, and additional closet space.

The amenities in the complex include a small but relaxing pool, lounge chairs, a fridge to keep your drinks handy, and a grill for barbecuing if you so desire! Since this is a very small community, you only share amenities with a few people. Some days, the pool may be just for you to enjoy. Please note that we do provide beach/pool towels for our guests as well!

We fell in love with this condo when we first saw it. It was our dream come true. Not a resort vibe, family-friendly, unbeatable location, literally steps from the beach. We are a local family, not a managing company, with young kiddos who LOVE the water, and we can honestly say that our beach condo is located in a unique, low-key spot to relax, play, and enjoy some of the best sunsets Florida has to offer. Come visit!
* No pets, sorry!
* Guest making reservation must be 25+
* We provide a starter pack with TP, dish soap, detergent pods, kitchen towels, etc. Guests are expected to resupply the items they require for the remainder of their stay.

Great Trip
What a great place. Super clean and updated. We love the area because you can walk to anything you need. Esteban was quick to answer any questions we had and accomodated our requests. Although we didn't use them, there was a pop up play pen and kids toys in the spare bedroom closet. Plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas in the storage closet as well. We look forward to returning.

Five ladies over 40 enjoyed a long weekend on the beach. Everything was wonderful. The stairs leading up to the condo were a great lil workout for some of us! So many awesome beach accessories for us to use. We weren’t missing anything. There were several restaurants, bars, and a CVS a quick walk away. The pool wasn’t huge, but we basically had it to ourselves. The beach was amazing, clean, and lots of chairs available! Highly recommend for a laid back beach vacation.

Great but prepared to climb stairs
The Condo was very nice. We love the location, it’s close to our favorite restaurants. Unfortunately the pool was closed and with red tide in the area we would have used that a lot. There are 17 stairs to climb so be prepared. Our group was 4 women all over 60 and it was difficult to get our luggage up and down the stairs. Esteban is, however, great to deal with. The lock on the door broke and he came right over to take care of it. He is a great host. We probably return but will pack less to make it easier for luggage and stairs!

This was a trip I organized to say "thank you" to the all-female staff of my CPA office. We had a wonderful time at this property. It was perfect for the 5 of us (2 in each bedroom and 1 on the couch). Having been to IRB before, I knew the location was perfect for getting to the restaurants and activities we had planned. We couldn't have asked for anything more in a property. I will definitely add this to my "Perfect Places To Stay" in IRB!

Great vacation spot for our 16 month old! Quite location with low traffic. Great for young families. Beautiful beach, pool, and rental! I got confused about the code to get in, but Linda responded quickly to help. There is one covered parking spot, which is nice. The parking space felt tight and would make us question bringing a full sized SUV or truck. Thank you to the Millers!

This condo is complete perfection and more than we hoped for! It fit my family of 6 fabulously, was spotless, and filled with all the essentials. Just steps away from the beach and we spent a ton of time in the pool. Steve and Linda had quick and clear communication which was so nice! We don’t travel often but I’m certain we will come back here!

ND Meets FL and Had a Great Experience!
The owners were very responsive to my questions through VRBO/emails before and after my reservation was made. The unit was very clean and had a beach house atmosphere. The pool and beach were easily accessible and the use of the loungers for the beach and umbrella were a plus! (We only saw one umbrella to use, first come first served for it). Our last night we saw several dolphins from the beach! CVS and other restaurants are within walking distance. We walked to some places depending on the day with heat temps. The location was ideal but the traffic noise can be heard inside. We were ok with the noise because by reading other reviews ahead of time we knew that would be the case. The only negative I can leave about this place is that there was only one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom. With a family of four we ran out of tp in one bathroom and had to keep borrowing from other bathrooms roll. We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back one day, it was an ideal location!

Fantastic!!
We enjoyed every second of our stay! The property was so clean and the set up was wonderful. We were with our 1 & 3 year old and being able to spend the morning at the beach and easily get back to the room for lunch and naps was amazing! Everything was so walkable and the pool ended up being a favorite spot to cool off after a long day at the beach! We look forward to booking again.

Great condo just steps away from the beach.
Perfect spot for a family vacation. The condo has everything you will need. We found the washer/dryer extremely handy with 3 kids. Nice furnishings and everything is well kept. The owners are extremely good at communicating with their renters and were even willing to check with their neighbors on availability for next year. You can park your car in your private parking spot and walk to a variety of restaurants. There is easy access to both the pool and the beach. You can't go wrong booking here for your next vacation.

Super Clean and Cozy!
We had a great stay last week at Linda and Steve's property. It was honestly one of the cleanest beach properties we've ever been too! Our two kids were perfectly happy in the room next door with movies to watch in the evening and their own bed! Plenty of towels and my oldest loved that she could use the boogie board! The beach was not too crowded - just perfect! The walk to the beach and pool were easy. Love that we can use the lounge chairs. Pool is a little small but it was clean, tidy and refreshing. We had a great lunch at local place, Jake's Coastal Cantina. Great ice cream at Haze Ice Cream in Madeira Beach (death by chocolate is yummy) and dinner on the waterfront at Caddys Indian Shores. Parking is a little tricky (tight fit) but we managed fine with two adults. Thanks again for a much needed vacation!
