About this property

Waterfront 1BR Retreat w/Shared Private Beach + Walk to Beach Blvd

  • Wake up near the water at this charming 1-bedroom retreat, one of three private, attached guest accommodations on a waterfront property overlooking Boca Ciega Bay. Your indoor space is entirely your own, while the expansive waterfront yard and sandy private beach are shared exclusively with guests of the property’s two other accommodations.

    Inside, you’ll find a relaxed, eclectic character with a queen bed, wood floors, full kitchen, separate powder room, and a unique bath with a large tub and shower.

    Step outside to unwind by the bay, watch for dolphins and shorebirds, fish from the shoreline, catch a beautiful Florida sunset, or simply enjoy the breeze. The shared waterfront setting offers plenty of room to relax and enjoy one of the property’s most special features.

    When you’re ready to explore, leave the car behind. Gulfport’s restaurants, bars, colorful shops, local beach, fishing pier, live music, farmers market, and arts scene are all within an easy walk.

    St. Pete Beach and downtown St. Petersburg are also approximately 10–15 minutes away by car.

    It’s a great fit for guests looking for a peaceful waterfront escape with Gulfport’s quirky charm and the best of both worlds, relaxing by the bay and walking into town.

Great location

Perfect location within walking distance to the Gulfport restaurants, shops and park. We were visiting family close by, so we only used the house to shower and sleep, which was acceptable for our needs. The courtyard needs some work as the grass and weeds were too high making access to the outdoor furniture difficult.

Clean and quiet

We really enjoyed our stay. It was on the water, which my wife loved. Several times we walked to the park and once we walked out to eat locally. The property seems out of the way, down side streets, but we weren’t really that far from anything. The property was very clean and the property manager responded very well to all of our questions.

Fireworks Extravaganza

This property is exactly what we expected. We stayed here because the fireworks were being displayed right off the shoreline. The view was amazing and everything we wanted. The only thing I would want vacationers to know is that the property is not actually "beachfront" but rather "bay" front. It is on Bocca Ceiga Bay. If you're not concerned with that you should really enjoy your stay.

Quaint and rustic gem

We had a great time with our pup at this place! He was able to play in the water at the small beach behind the property a little bit when the tide was up. There is also a huge backyard! The stairs entering the unit are a bit steep so not a great stay for older dogs, but other than that, we loved the location! The shower/tub is unique but also could be a bit difficult for folks that don’t stretch and bend like they used to. Would stay again!

eclectic space

nice and cozy eclectic property out of the 1920's look and feel. needs new blinds in the front windows as they were all broken in some fashion. we had a nice stay with great local restarants and shops very close. Beach was small and messy with some kind of algae but it was too cold to swim anyway but it was still nice to sit by the water and listen to the local band at a nearby place. GREAT backyard for a dog!

Gulfport getaway

We booked this as it was close to our home while it was being refurnished due to the hurricanes. The location is absolutely fantastic! We came with our pups and they had the BEST time the one afternoon me and my partner sat on the deck chairs and watched our pups run after one another in the water and through the trees on the beach. It really was magical waking up each morning and seeing the fog on the water and the beautiful sunsets on the evening. The dogs were so happy, they even had an outdoor shower with doggy shampoo to wash them down with afterwards! Very thoughtful. Our unit was beach themed and quaint complete with roku and internet and full kitchen etc. The house is next to the veterans park which we walked through each morning and the restaurants and cafes were so close everything is within walking distance. My partner just said it was like a little slice of paradise ! 100% recommend.

Good location. Unit unconventional, needs work.

Nice location. Unit is next to a small park, at the waterfront and at the edge of the town. Short drive to St. Petersburg. Entrance is at rear of the building. Backyard is a long narrow lot leading to a small beach on the bay. Beach is maybe 100 yards from the unit. Yard gives overgrown appearance. Steps up to unit feature a rickety hand rail. Screen door just flaps. Inside the floor is well worn unfinished wood strips with some gaps. Some slats are misssing from narrow venetian blinds making privacy an issue.. [My wife or daughters would not have stayed here because of lack of privacy.] No door to bedroom making it open to the rest of the living area. Unique features include a large soaking tub with a great shower at the center of the unit separated from the main living area only by a shower curtain. Also, the TV sits on a rectangular cut out of the wall so that it can be viewed from the living area and turned around to be watched from the bedroom.

This charming and quirky rental is just as described. Old Florida charm, and the location is excellent: right on the bay, next to a lovely little park, and close to the downtown action. Will stay there again!
Standing at the edge of the bay looking toward the rental entrance.
Walking from the rental across the park toward O'Maddy's, great food and happy hour spot.

This was the lovliest place I have every stayed. We were sad we didn't book an entire week! Lisa was lovely. The artistry and artisan effects complimented the style of the home. The beach area on the bay was quiet and secluded. Amazingly quiet considering "downtown" was a few blocks away!! Definitely coming back for a much longer stay next time!!
