If you want modern & updated, we can provide you other links in the same building to check out for a little more money. If you are okay with 'retro beachy cottage style, no frills, staying at grandma's old beach condo that's a bit out dated' then this place will work fine. No frills people that like camping are a fan of this unit. It definitely does the job for a family beach vacation on a budget. *FYI: Balcony is not available for use, roof is under construction.

We couldn’t have asked for a more convenient place with the easiest access to everything St Pete had to offer. We were two minutes from the beach with a gorgeous view of the ocean from our patio. We could walk to restaurants and bars, if we didn’t want to drive! (Rick’s Reef and La Croisette were favorites) Would definitely stay here again and we are looking forward to coming back to St Pete later this year.

Like going home to Mamaw’s house:)

The condo is quite rustic, but very comfortable and clean!! Felt like my Mamaws house with the rustic quality and welcoming feeling!! We had 6 with us and although it was small, we all felt comfortable and never felt like we were on top of each other!! We plan to rent it again for our vacation next summer!!
