We loved the location along Gulf Blvd. and the proximity to the ocean and several restaurants. It had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay(spent a great deal of time on the balcony too). I'm always trying to find lodging that has hot tubs and this one did have one along with a nice heated pool.

We had a few problems but they got resolved with time. 1st wrong code was given to get into condo. Then shower drain was plugged. Pictures showed washer and dryer but you couldn't use the dryer it wasn't vented. And washer did not complete cycle.

There were pros and cons to our trip. Pros: great views from the balcony. Short walk to the beach. Comfortable beds overall condition of condo was average. Cons: key code did not work upon arrival. Had to use cleaning crews to Provide access. Second bathroom had mold in the shower area and caulking that should never be acceptable. The cleaning crew did respond and did their best to remove the mold but the shower needs work. No beach chairs for the unit, though rentals are available for a fee, though they can’t be moved. Overall a decent functional unit.

Indian Shores is the perfect get away! The condo suited our needs perfectly. We had four adults which included my husband, myself, our 20 year old son and my mother in law. Three bedrooms with two full baths were exactly what we needed! The beach which is a few steps from the elevator was pristine, soft, white sand with crystal clear water at its edges to enjoy. The pool was a nice added feature when we wanted a reprieve from the tides.

I really do not know where to begin! We have stayed in Indian Shores at several different Beach Side 3 Bedroom Condos over the years and they have all been varying degrees of wonderful! This Condo was terrible! They call it a 3 Bedroom Condo but the tiny 3rd bedroom has no closet and no real dresser. My daughter and her husband lived out of their suitcases for 2 weeks. The front door lock was not working as we arrived it took a couple of hours to get in. The Condo was sooo dirty!! Mould in the second bathroom all around the tub and glass enclosure. Sand on the floors everywhere!! The tiny little washer/dryer in the middle of the Condo with a note saying only use for bathing suits and underwear was so full of mould and had such a terrible smell coming out of it. We never used it, obviously. They have a Laundry area on the 2nd floor! Grab your money and don’t expect the towels to get dry any time soon. It cost so much money to wash our things!! We actually did all the beach towels and towels from our Unit before we left because we felt sorry for the next people that would be arriving. We left the Condo cleaner then when we arrived. For sure!! There was 6 of us staying there for 2 weeks. We never used one plate or glass or utensil! They all were so old and the cupboards were so dirty. Everything was dirty. The sinks, the fridge, the counter tops, the oven and cook top. We were all disgusted with the place. The photos of the Condo on VRBO are deceiving and the pictures must have been taken years prior. The sheets for our beds were so dingy and they did not even fit properly! The bed spreads were very soiled looking. The hair dryer in the Ensuite looked like you would get electrocuted if you used it!! To say we were very disappointed would be such an understatement. I never write reviews of the places we have stayed. This year I am feeling badly that I did not say nice things about all these other lovely Vacation Condos that we have stayed at and enjoyed. Think twice before you book this place. Indian Shores is lovely. The beach is beautiful. The pool at Sand Castle 1 is very nice. The elevator was clean and so fast. The grounds were kept very nicely. This Unit needs to be totally renovated or at least scrubbed and re painted and new appliances. So our advice, beware!!

We’ve been to IRB three times in a year, 7th condo rental in a year, and this is by far our favorite. Pictures are accurate, view is amazing, furniture is top notch and very comfortable. Little things are considered that aren’t always, like extra blankets and pillows, lots of towels, kitchen extremely well stocked. Has both a keurig and drip coffee maker, which seems like a little thing, but is huge in our family ;-) Only issue was the keypad, which didn’t work l, and the management company couldn’t do anything about it. That left four of us having to pass the one key back and forth as we came and went, which was inconvenient. But I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.
