Great BeachView 3/2,Indian Shores/708 Sand Castle

Fabulous Beachfront 3/2 Condo at Sand Castle #1 on Indian Shores! This lovely condo is directly on Indian Shores Beach with absolutely stunning Beach Views from the 7th floor! Spend your vacation soaking up the Sun on the beach or by lounging by the heated inground pool. There is a hot tub and grills on the ground level. Tile throughout! Master bedroom has a king size bed, TV and attached bathroom, tub/shower combo. The 2nd bedroom has 2 queen beds, 3rd bedroom has a twin bed. A fully stocked kitchen along with a stackable washer and dryer. Guest bathroom has a walk-in shower. There is one dedicated parking space in the parking garage located under the building. Should all the "guest" parking spots be taken, we cannot direct you on where to park a second car.

The unit has a beach cart, some beach toys, and some pool noodles in the balcony closet. There is a combo k-cup/regular coffee maker at the unit.

Garage Clearance is 7ft; vehicles must be under 7 feet to use the parking garage. If your vehicle is taller than 7ft, and the limited number of guests parking spots are full, we are very sorry, but we will not be able to help you with parking.

Toiletries/Essentials - The items below are meant to serve as a START-UP to your stay.

To help you settle in comfortably, we will provide the following essentials:
Two rolls of toilet paper per bathroom
One roll of paper towels
Hand soap at each sink
Dish soap
A few trash bags for each trash can
A few laundry sheets
Dish detergent and sponge
Ground coffee or coffee pods
Dish towel(s)
In addition, we will provide one full set of bath towels and one beach towel per person, based on the number of guests the home or condo accommodates.

Please note: We do not provide extra supplies during your stay, regardless of its duration. Some of the main items that we DO NOT provide are shampoo, body wash, conditioner, tissues, oils, spices (salt, pepper, etc.), coffee filters, cream or sugar, tin foil.

IMPORTANT: IF YOU BOOK THIS UNIT, YET ARE HAVING ANOTHER PARTY MAKE PAYMENT, YOU WILL NEED TO ADD THE EMAIL ADDRESS OF THE PAYER ONTO THE BOOKING, AND THE PAYER WILL NEED TO E-SIGN OUR RENTAL AGREEMENT. ONLY THE PERSON WHO PAYS IS AUTHORIZED TO E-SIGN THE RENTAL AGREEMENT.

Age minimum: One guest must be at least 25 years old. Under the ADA and Florida law, owners of public accommodations are not required to allow emotional support animals, only documented service animals. Rates on OPEN DATES are often subject to change. TRAVEL INSURANCE IS RECOMMENDED, AS THERE IS A STRICT NO REFUND POLICY!!! IF YOU NEED TO CANCEL, YOU WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. THE NO REFUND POLICY INCLUDES NO REFUNDS DUE TO HEALTH CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WEATHER CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WATER CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND INCLUDING COLD WATER OR RED TIDE, OR TRANSPORTATION OR ROAD CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND INCLUDING FLIGHT CANCELLATIONS. A CHANGE IN YOUR BOOKING DATE MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE OR ALLOWED, HOWEVER, SHOULD A DATE CHANGE BE ALLOWED BY THE OWNER, BOOKING DATE CHANGES WILL BE SUBJUECT TO A $50 CHARGE FOR EACH DATE CHANGE. Should a booking date change be allowed, the difference in rates, if lower, will not be refunded, and if higher, will be charged. AGAIN, due to the no refund policy, travel insurance is highly recommended, especially if your stay will fall around Florida's Hurricane season, which falls annually around June 1 through Nov. 30. We cannot guarantee pools will be warm during cold weather months and will not give discounts or refunds should a guest experience cold pool water temperatures.

Please understand what can come with the potential aftermath of a Hurricane. There may be closures of the following, that could possibly last weeks, if not longer: restaurants/shops, roads, certain amenities offered, beaches, Wi-Fi/cable, pools, elevators, etc. Our owners will stand behind their no refund cancellation policy for any of these inconveniences and will not be making anyone the exception. Again, this is why we HIGHLY recommend purchasing good travel insurance. There should be a few policies offered towards the end of your booking process. One of which should allow you to cancel for any reason (CFAR). However, it is important for you, to do your proper research in confirming what exclusions, if any, exist for that particular policy. If none are offered to you, you can always contact another 3rd party travel insurance company. Date changes, rain checks, or compensation will also not be options under these circumstances! Hurricane season, again, falls between June 1st and November 30th.


EARLY CHECK-IN:
Because we have a high amount of same day turn overs, we kindly ask that you PLEASE refrain from asking for an early check in. Check-in is at 4PM Eastern or any time thereafter. Should the unit be available for early check-in, it will be offered to you on the morning of your arrival for a $50 early check-in fee. Thank you for understanding!

We require the payer of the booking to sign our rental agreement, which insures the guest instructions will auto-send at 3PM on the day of arrival.

MAIL: SORRY, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET YOUR MAIL DELIVERED, AS THIS IS A VACATION RENTAL. SHOULD YOU NEED YOUR MAIL DELIVERED DURING YOUR STAY, WE RECOMMEND PURCHASING A P.O. BOX LOCALLY.

Great sunset!

Great location- right on the beach. Wonderful sunset viewing! Has the key amenities- the full size washer and dryer were wonderful to have. Beach wagon, boogie boards, sand toys, etc in a closet to use. Recommendation to include in the listing would be to include specifics of parking limitations of 7’ esp. for vehicles with cargo carriers/roof racks. They do have guest parking outside, but not a lot. We were frustrated by the short notice (after we checked in) that the pool would be closed the next day( and unsure how long after that) due to renovations. So, we didn’t get to enjoy the pool enjoy tub.Also, we didn’t have enough full size bath towels. Overall, very clean and the view is amazing.

A slice of heaven

We could not have been happier with our stay! The furnishings are exquisite, upscale, and so comfortable. We were blessed with amazing sunsets, and this morning, the full moon set over the ocean off the balcony. What a gift every moment has been to us. Thank you for sharing your home; it is a true treasure for anyone who comes to visit.

Florida in July

We really enjoyed the condo. Great location. The beach is steps away. White sands, and 7th floor gives you great view. Big patio with seating. Condo is up to date, nice kitchen, clean, everything we wanted. Washer/dryer. Beach toys, even a wagon to haul our stuff back and forth from the beach. Sunsets were amazing. If you know where to look, you can find sand dollars (but don't take the live ones). Dolphins swam by every morning. Pool was great. Hot tube was good, but not really needed in July. We had covered parking and used the visitor parking for a second car. Wish they had more visitor parking, but we never had a problem getting a spot. There are two buildings, and this condo was in the older of the two buildings -- so it has some character. We would would be returning renters. Oh, we also left an iPad. The cleaners found it, returned it to the property manager, who graciously offered to ship it back to us. So that was nice. Thank You!

Amazing stay!

Location is perfect! Can’t beat the view from this condo!! The beach was beautiful. You can rent chairs and an umbrella, but the condo also had a beach wagon, several chairs and umbrellas to use. Loved the restaurant Caddy’s across the street, easy to walk to making it very convenient. Host was super responsive, we had a wonderful time and did not want to leave! Highly recommend!

Family beach time

While the overall condo unit was a little dated, the condo itself was very updated. We loved the interior and furnishings. Our favorite was sitting in the balcony having coffee my morning and watching the sunset in the evening. While there may be newer hotels or condos in the area, I don’t think any would be as convenient for pool and beach access. Also, it was nice to have Clearwater just 20 minutes to the north and St Pete 20 minutes to the south.

Great vacation spot

Great location with restaurant options you can walk to. Very nice accommodations. Only complaint is it would have been nice to know in advance that painters would be sandblasting the adjacent stairwell during our stay. Very noisy from 8:00 - 4:00.

We loved the view and being able to hear the ocean! It was a needed relief from our WI winter. The unit fit our party of 5 nicely. The kitchen was well stocked and had updated appliances. The full size washer and dryer were a bonus. The dining and living areas were also really nice. There were a lot of beach items in the storage area, which we used and appreciated. The heated pool and hot tub were a great option when we were done on the beach. We definitely recommend this condo!

Wonderful

The condo was very nice ! I would give it a five star with the exception of very few bath and kitchen linens. We had one towel and one washcloth, no dish clothes and one kitchen towel. Needless to say , we washed towels everyday. There were two Tide pods included so we needed to buy laundry soap. But everything else was great!

Cleanest and Most Perfect Condo

I cannot stress enough that this unit was the cleanest. The floors are white marble tile and I went to wipe up a little water that got on the floor and the paper towel (dampened) was clean. The baseboards, behind the couch…all clean. I vacuumed and got nothing out of the throw rugs. I appreciate this the most as I can feel comfortable in a clean place. There were plenty of cleaning supplies to clean up after yourself which I appreciate as I did not have to guess what they want used to clean with and buy it. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed our stay immensely. The kitchen had everything you could need and was again, very clean. There are sand toys in the outside closet but we never opened it to get them (closet on deck). The view of the gulf is amazing and being able to have a beautiful view and be at the warm pool on a cooler day was awesome. Hot tub was great. We loved this place and we would like to stay there again.

Nice clean condo

The condo was great! The beach was very nice. Would be great if actual lounging beach chairs were provided. The cost to rent chairs was too high. Owner did provide sand chairs but so badly rusted. The lamp in the MB did not work but property manager said they would take care of it. We improvised. Beach was nice but seaweed was all over. Liked the elevator - helped with luggage. Sand cart was excellent for taking chairs and toys to the Beach. Condo was well equipped with everything you might need and very tastefully done!
