About this property

PROMO 5% WEEKLY/5% MONTHLY DISC. Waterfront Condo! Mins to Beach!Great location!

This unit was completely updated and quite modern! Two TV's in the unit, plus a GORGEOUS view from the 20' private balcony overlooking the Bay! This condo in St. Petersburg is in a great location close to all amenities with many restaurants nearby, including Doc Ford's next door, and shopping nearby. Lots to do; and a 6 minute drive to Madeira Beach! Close to fishing including deep sea.

1-bedroom, condo sleeps 2 (plus up to 2 small children on the pull-out couch).

Close to restaurants, shopping incl. Tyrone Mall, Studio Movie Theater & Grill, a marina, the Pinellas Trail, and Bay Pines Park (with public boat ramps). Everything is at your fingertips... yet quiet on your balcony!! 33 minutes to Tampa Airport; 23 minutes to St. Pete's / Clearwater Airport.

Update after Hurricane Helene & Milton:
As of Nov 22, 2024

The pool area will be open on Monday finally! Yay!! The elevators are working, as well as everything else, except the gym area is still closed on the 1st floor.

Doc Fords next door is fully operational and is still a favourite restaurant among guests... as well as most restaurants / businesses inland.

The most damage occurred along the beach road, Gulf Blvd. According to recent guests, the best beach to visit right now that has lots of parking is St. Pete's Beach (a 12 minute drive), Madeira Beach... around John's Pass (near the bridge), as well as Clearwater beaches.

Warmly,

Great Location

Great location to access beaches and downtown St Pete. Beautiful clean unit, perfect for a couple. The resort grounds and the beach towns will need time to recover from the recent hurricane damage.

Amazing stay!

This trip to Boca Ciega was one of the best choices we made for our short getaway. Well equipped and maintained. Host Diane was fast to respond with any questions we had. Unit is in a perfect location with breathtaking views, right near pool and saw dolphins! All in all very clean and quiet! Can’t wait to go back and have our entire family stay at this location.

Staycation

This property is amazing. Very clean, and the view speaks for itself. This is my second time staying here, and it was just as good as the first. Amazing sunsets, then of course who doesn’t love watching the dolphins swimming and playing throughout the day. Definitely recommend and will definitely be enjoying more staycations at Diane’s condo.

Very nice, private, well kept property. Our condo was exactly as shown on the vrbo site, and was equipped with everything we needed (or could have needed). The owner of our condo (Diane Stricker) was wonderful to work with. We will indeed be back to Boca Ciega for a return visit.

Great Stay!

The condo is nicely decorated and very clean. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for those days when we wanted to cook and close to several restaurants when we didn't. A Publix grocery store and a Walgreens are nearby. View from the balcony over the pool, palm trees and the bay is gorgeous. Pool and hot tub area are lovely. Diane, the host, was excellent to deal with, very responsive. We definitely hope to return next year.

Perfect week!

The condo was just as expected, clean & inviting. The balcony was fantastic, coffee every morning enjoying the view. Most days saw dolphin’s in the water, one day saw a manatee by the dock. Saw something never seen before, the gentleman taking care of pool was scrubbing the top & bottom on each lounge chair. Madeira beach was less than 10 mins away & beautiful beach. Lots of great restaurants close by. Hope we can return next year. Definitely would recommend. Thank you so much!

A wonderful home-away-from home

I stayed at Boca Ciega Resort February 8-March 1. It should tell you something that I tried to book the property for 2024 within a day or so of my arrival and found that it was already booked! The building is close to a number of businesses, which makes for convenient shopping: Publix, Wawa, Total Wine,Dollar General, etc. There is a fun restaurant-Doc Fords- within a very short walk. Madeira Beach is about a 10-minute ride away, and Treasure Island about 20. The condo was clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. King size bed was very comfortable. The view from the balcony was what drew me to this property in the first place; it did not disappoint! Working with Diane was a most pleasant experience. She was very easy to work with and very prompt to respond to any inquiries. I would love to stay in her condo next year, but I suppose it's not meant to be!

About the host

Hosted by Diane Stricker

Host profile image
Mike and Diane Stricker currently live in Canada, 1 hour north of Toronto. They are proud new owners of this condo and love everything about it! Mike owns his own vending business, and Diane is a Pastoral Intern at a local church, as well as a musician/recording artist.

Why they chose this property

We love this property because everything is at your fingertips and the view is spectacular!!! It's larger than a hotel with a living area, a kitchen and dining area, plus a separate bedroom and bathroom. The 20 ft. balcony has a breath-taking view of the pool and the Bay, and is only a 5 minute drive to Madeira Beach. It's also close to many restaurants, bars, Walmart, Starbucks, Home Depot, and so much more!!
