This was our first time to Indian Rocks Beach. We came with our family (3 kids and grandparents) and stayed for 6 nights over New Years. At this time the days are short and the weather is nice, but not hot. As such, we spent more time in the unit than others would if they stayed a different time of year.
The unit is basic and was equipped with only the essentials-even then items such as a strainer or cheese grater are not included. Often at short stay condos, the cupboards have other items left behind by previous guests (oil, spices etc) which is nice. Here, only salt and pepper remained. The furniture is basic and quite cheap. The couch is comfortable, but that fits only 2 or 3 people. The beds were OK, but the front bedroom could benefit from an option of curtains over the blinds (mornings are bright!). In contrast, the back bedroom is extra dark. There also werenât any other fun âtouchesâ, like a few games to play/cards. Good thing we brought our own.
The splash harbour passes were a nice bonus, but given the time of year, they didnât get much use as the days are short, temperatures cool, and the park is in shade much of the day.
I chose this unit due to the exceptional reviews. On staying I would say this is an overall 2 or 3 star unit, but gets higher ratings due to its general location and responsiveness of manager. If the unit is just a place to sleep for you, then this one will do.
