This sunny and spacious, 2 bedroom/2 bath Bahia Vista condo, located on Isla del Sol ~ a small barrier island on the southernmost tip of St. Petersburg that boasts 350 acres of beautifully manicured tropical gardens surrounded by the waters of Boca Ciega Bay ~ will be your Florida "Home Away from Home". The beautifully, updated kitchen complete with modern stainless appliances; a "wine chiller"; new cabinetry with loads storage space and well-stocked with an abundance of essentials; granite/stone counters and stunning, green-glass back splash await you. This cozy unit is also complimented by plank-style flooring; updated bathrooms both with custom vanities and "designer" tile; modern lighting; "beachy" decor; flat screen TVs and wireless internet. After a full day of sight-seeing adventures or fun and sun on our beautiful Gulf beaches, come home to the peacefulness of the island and relax on the balcony with afternoon cocktails and be sure to have your camera ready to capture the sights and sounds of St. Pete Beach, Pass-A-Grille and the sun sinking behind The Don Cesar, Florida's Famous "Pink Hotel". While on the island walk, jog or bike our quaint Spanish named streets where you’re sure to see Florida’s shorebirds resting and feeding in and around our island lakes. Take time to enjoy the sparkling, heated pool. Rejuvenate in the spa. Or, catch some "rays" on the sun deck or Isla's private beach, all of which are just steps away from the condo. Isla is also just minutes from Fort DeSoto State Park and Fort DeSoto’s North Beach, one of America’s top beaches. Don’t miss out on the area's local restaurants and unique shops up and down our beautiful coastline, as well as fishing charters, golfing, boating, nightlife, sunset cruises and more.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a 5th floor condo overlooking the waterway and the Don Cesar from the beautiful balcony. We frequently stay home and just watch the sunset from here. The condo is extremely comfortable and met our needs. The area is in the middle of everything! You can safely walk or ride your bike night or day, while seeing nothing but beauty!

Terrible property manager stay away from Compass
The instructions for check-in were not very clear, there was no explanation of where to dump garbage and there were absolutely no supplies such as a small amount of dishwasher soap. When asked the property manager said to go buy some as nothing was supplied. I have been at several VRBOs and they all had been very clean and a very responsive property manager but this was much different. They provided a closing procedure that was followed but then were charged an overage. Location was great and fishing near bridge was good just do not use Compass for any rental unless you want to be nickled and dimed for everything and have rude and unhelpful people.
