With miles of sprawling beach and away from the large-chain hotels, you and your family will have plenty of room to enjoy the Gulf shore. When you are ready to change the pace, fish from private docks, enjoy water sports on the bay, or just sit back and enjoy the view. The bay is home to Florida's signature water birds and is frequently visited by dolphins. This particular combination of bay-front and beach access is unique to this location and cannot be found anywhere else in this area. With more privacy than a condo complex, we welcome you to stay with us in comfort . We are continuously updating this town house.

Extra privacy is afforded by the landing which separates the master from the other two bedrooms. The washer and dryer are accessible from the landing for ideal convenience. The second bathroom is again finished with granite counter-tops and has a combination shower-bath. The second and third bedrooms face west with a partial ocean view. The heart of the townhouse is the open layout of the second floor with beautiful bay views from the living room that opens onto the water-front balcony. The space is roomy for families and groups of friends. Guests stay connected with cable and Wifi available throughout the townhome. The formal dining space is complimented by a fully appointed kitchen where entertaining is made easy with a spacious functional layout, granite countertops, and dark hardwood cabinets. Next to the kitchen is a flexible space that can be used for breakfast or additional sleeping space for larger families or groups. There is a bathroom at the end of the kitchen with a shower-bath combination. Flooring is tile throughout the townhouse. The ground floor features a bonus room and a 2-car garage.

The large bay is perfect for relaxing, fishing and water-sports. There are several options for food and drinks within walking distance and some great fine dining within a short drive. John's Pass Village and Boardwalk is a short drive and has something for everyone with restaurants, entertainment, and beach-themed shops. One place that you don't want to miss is practically next door. Wahoo's may not look like much from the outside, but for an authentic fresh-off-the-boat grouper sandwich, this casual local bar is the place to go. Thank you for your interest in this "best of the beach and the bay" townhouse. We know you will love it here because we love it too.

Our family has been welcoming guests to Redington Shores now for almost 40 years. Locals and some long-time return guests may still remember the charm of the old Sinbad Motel owned by our grandparents from the time when going to the beach meant putting a family in the car, stopping at a place that felt right, and enjoying a care-free week at the water.

Guests can now experience the best of Boca Ciega Bay and the Gulf beaches with over 3000 square feet of Mediterranean-themed space to call (vacation) home.

Enjoyed Thanksgiving week in style. Beach Golf and a wonderful home base. Two of three children now live in Tampa-Bay so spending Thanksgiving in the area was perfect. Perhaps we will return as we really like the property.
All the best! Thanks again.

We enjoyed the house very much. Could use a vacuum on location as we had to clean before leaving and brooming the whole house was a lot. Unsure if cleaning fee inclusion means we have to clean before we left as well. The price seemed decent at first but noticed the neighbours were paying less. All in all though great place, great location.

We are a blended family and this was our first vacation with all our kids and grandkids. The townhome was perfect for as many people as we had staying. Beach access was directly across the street. The beach community at Redington Shores is quiet and the beach wasn’t packed with too many people. We were able to fish from the backyard in the bay and watched a family of dolphins every morning come close to the docks. Only thing I’d really change is have curtains or long blinds for the living room. It could be really bright during the morning. Overall, it was a great place for vacation. We’d stay again.

This was a nice property and had plenty of room for our family of 6. No garage door opener was a bit of an inconvenience as someone had to always get out and go in to open the door. The 74 minimum temp on the air conditioner was not cool enough for upstairs bedrooms.
5.0
Super spacious townhome, clean and wonderfully located. Short walk to the beach and multiple restaurants. Gorgeous views of the bay from the balconies. Plenty of seating in the living and dining room for a big group. Only dings....beds are soft, kitchen Teflon pans are pretty worn. On the plus side, lots of beach equipment left by others even though rental agreement does not guarantee this. We'd definitely book again!

Perfect combo of bay and ocean. You do have to cross a busy street… and I would recommend more dishes. Plates and bowls- and even some plastic items would be helpful

Lovely location on the bay plus fresh fish market right next door. $3 margaritas at Seabreeze next door was also great. Many restaurants/bars are walkable. Trolley to John's Pass was an affordable way to get there. Short drive to Clearwater & St. Pete's. Lots of room with 3 bedrooms on the second floor. Saw lots of birds in the backyard & an occasional dolphin! Updating is getting there - the shower grout could use a good scrubbing & balconies need some work but overall clean & spacious.

Although this is a lovely large property in a great location, it is in need of some maintenance inside. Kitchen ware & crockery needs replacing/undating as some of it was cracked & chipped.
Rollers on main French doors need replacing as they are very difficult to open and close and they also don't lock properly.

We loved how roomy this beautiful townhouse is! It was super clean which we really appreciated including the spotless kitchen and floors. There are white tile floors throughout which feel great in the warm weather and are very easy to clean. The large kitchen and bathrooms all have granite counters. The master bath has a large soaking tub and there is so much space. The laundry room, linen closet and master bedroom walk in closet are all large with tons of shelf space. There is a lot of light on this end unit and I never got tired of walking down the stairs to the living room and seeing the water. The townhouse's back yard ends at the bulkhead of the Boca Ciega Bay with open, tranquil water views. It's so relaxing to watch the pelicans resting on the pilings out back and dolphins swimming very close to the house. There were new white towels in the bathroom which was appreciated. The beach is a short walk (just a couple of minutes), and there are beach access paths in between every 2-4 houses it seems. If you walk directly across the street from the townhouse and a block towards the water., you'll find a path straight ahead. We loved being able to travel with our dog who discovered lizards outside in the gardens for the first time. (She wasn't too sure about those.) This is a great location to everything in the area. The Florida Botanical Gardens are 10 minutes away, and Johns Pass is about the same distance. There is a Winn Dixie about 5 min. down the road in Madeira and lots of restaurants with take-out options. I love that this beach was wide, gorgeous and not crowded. This area has more of a relaxed, residential feel rather than a crowded hotel zone. If you cross the street out front, you'll find a quiet neighborhood on the other side to walk the dogs. We would love to stay here again!

This is my second time staying in these townhomes the first time was a different unit but this time I was disappointed. This unit has great potential and in a great location, we love being on the intercostal because my husband likes to fish.
I have to say with this townhome it definitely needs some upgrading and better cleaning. To start the mattress in one of the spare bedrooms is on the floor you literally sink into it when you sit on it , the rooms get very hot we had to use a portable fan to help cool it along with the ceiling fan. The hall shower was so clogged I had to find something to pull out a huge glob of hair that I could’ve made a wig with, one set of sheets were stained with blood and another one had a yellow stain that look like pee. The remote in the master bedroom did not work we had to use the one from the TV downstairs
The couches were kind of gross I’m not big on cloth couches especially in a rental and at the beach they are very worn throw pillows was torn , The downstairs outside room whoever stayed there before us left fishing poles so it smelled like dead bait, my husband had to scrub the grill when he went to use it because freeze was caked up on it and on the concrete outside I don’t think it has ever been cleaned . The front porch light was out . This is what I can remember off the top of my head .
In closing this place has great potential but for the money you spend to stay here they do need to make it cleaner and fix the above issues.

A group of 5 of us stayed for a long weekend. The positives were definitely being a short walk to a really nice beach. Also, there were plenty of nice restaurants headlined by Sea Breeze and the Burrito Social.
The area its self seems like it was in a transition state. There were some super nice establishments and then others that were run down including a sketchy looking seven eleven store.
The only flaws in the place itself was that the downstairs bathroom lacked water pressure in the shower and toilet. Additionally the cots were very uncomfortable. The couch was a better option.
Overall, it is a legit 4 star place and would recommend for a time on the beach and a night in Tampa.

My group of friends and family, six in all, really enjoyed this property! The rooms were big, living room space and dining space just right and the grill and patios were where we spent most of our time. The kitchen is well stocked, and there is the right amount of pots, pans and other needed items. We saw dolphins, rays and lots of other wildlife on the bay side and really enjoyed grilling every night, there are tools in the basement which was wonderful. Walking to the beach was super easy and convenient as there are beach toys and tools others have left behind including a wagon, chairs and umbrella. The beach was fantastic, so beautiful and not a lot of people! We ate at The Sea Breeze, Wahoos and Kenny's Korner Cafe. Sea breeze was our favorite. Our few comments about the property would be, offering early check-in if the property is ready, we asked a week in advance for a 2pm check in and were told no and considering a different cooling pattern for the air conditioner. It was a meat locker at night, and a sauna in the morning, so regulating the temperature was hard. Besides that this a great property and we would utilize again!!

Something for everyone. Family loves fishing and going to the beach. Best of both worlds with canal on one side and beach on the other. Beautiful views. House is very nice but needs a few repairs and updates. Balcony doors off the living room are very tough to open. View is worth the struggle though. We saw dolphins daily out our back door.

The views at this house are unmatched - the balconies overlooking the bay are amazing! The beach is so close! Our 5 and 3 year olds walked to the beach with no problem. You need to cross one busy street and are right in the middle of two crosswalks a little ways down on each side, so we just navigated getting across the street in front of the house, and it's a super easy walk besides that. We did rent bikes, but didn't end up using them - it was a little nerve wracking trying to bike with little kids on that busy street, and everything was really walkable anyway. There are a couple of great restaurants right nearby, as well as a 7-11, and playground, all walkable. The house had a wagon, beach toys, and a pack n play. You need to bring your own beach towels. There are a lot of stairs, just something to keep in mind if you have a toddler.
House is spacious, very clean, and kitchen was very well equipped. We would definitely stay here again!

We loved this condo! The location was great, tons of space and clean. With two kids (9 & 12) we were spoiled with all the room. My son was able to fish off the dock, and we were able to enjoy the views is the inter coastal.
Check in and out was easy! Only wish we could have stayed longer, we hope to be back!

This home was beautiful and well-maintained. Gorgeous sunrises over the intercoastal waterway from several of the balconies. 3 full bathrooms with tubs was very convenient. A quiet community, very nice. Had to cross a 4-lane road for beach access but crosswalks with lights made it easy. Lots of beach toys and chairs (and a wagon) were in the garage. Parking inside the attached garage was really nice. There were a lot of stairs to climb if that would be hard for anyone, and all hard surfaces which was just a little treacherous for our 17-month old grandson. Overall a beautiful, spacious and comfortable property. We would definitely recommend!!!

Very nice, clean, comfortable, across the street from the beach, on the bay, provided lots of beach gear. Only drawback was the 2 front bedrooms were very hot, not enough air circulating, no water pressure in the master bathroom. Other than that most enjoyable stay will do it again next year if available, stayed a month and loved it!

Loved the condo and the location. Would have liked to have a direct number to a live person in the event of emergency or question about something but we didn't get that. The condo is nice but the sofa's needs to be replaced and updated, ceiling fans needs cleaning and fresh mop ran over floor before each guest.
