About this property

Beautiful Home w/ Beach in the Backyard

Welcome to “Coquina Beachfront Haven” by Clearwater Beach Vacation Homes


Step into a coastal dream at our cherished beachfront property, nestled on the sun-kissed shores of Indian Rocks Beach. Our home, steeped in history, stands as one of the original homesteads of Indian Rocks Beach, offering a blend of classic charm and modern comfort.

Experience serenity and the lull of ocean waves in our spacious main house, boasting a trio of second-floor bedrooms with breathtaking views and an easily accessible bath just outside all the rooms. Downstairs, you'll find another bathroom amid a canvas of homely amenities.

Just a sea breeze away is our inviting cottage. On its first level, a cozy bedroom awaits alongside a welcoming kitchen and a snug sitting area equipped with cable TV, perfect for intimate evenings or a lazy afternoon. Ascend to the cottage's upper sanctuary where a sumptuous queen bed, cable TV, and an additional bathroom offer a private retreat under the stars.

Every corner of our beachfront abode whispers tales of laughter, rest, and memories waiting to be made. It's more than a vacation home—it's a gateway to the salty allure of the Gulf, a space designed with joy and intended for connection. Here, the sunsets paint the sky daily, and the sand beckons for barefoot adventures.

Let our home be the canvas for your next unforgettable getaway. Discover, indulge, and allow the spirit of the sea to infuse every moment. We can't wait to welcome you to your paradise found.

The property features a main house with three bedrooms and a cozy two-bedroom cottage. The cottage functions like a duplex, with separate units on each floor. The first floor is reminiscent of a small hotel suite, complete with a bedroom, bathroom, sitting area with a TV, and a kitchen.

Great Stay, great location

We had a great stay at Coquina. House was right on the beach with a porch that had amazing sunset views. House was clean upon arrival and the staff was responsive with respect to addressing a sliding glass door issue on our first night.

Great Property

The house is in a great location for a week or weekend at the beach. While it's not a brand new house, it's full of character and charm. We had 8 adults stay for a long weekend and it was awesome! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a location in the area. We are looking to come back in the summer.

Perfect Setting

Whole family spent a week, and it was perfect. Amazing beach front setting. Gorgeous sunsets. House and out-buildings fit our family well and were all in great shape. House is such a classic. And walking to restaurants, brewery and store is so convenient and charming. A perfect week.

Fantastic Beach Location

The Coquina house was a wonderful experience for our family and we hope to return for an annual stay. This unique house is lovely. Plenty of room for 3 couples and three older children. The kitchen and eating area was spacious, and there were plenty of kitchen tools, dishes, glasses, dish towels, etc. which made preparing meals very easy. The location was outstanding, as we were footsteps to the beach. We did our best to keep the sand from getting inside, and perhaps a hand-held vacuum would be a good idea to keep inside by the door. There was a rechargeable blower to use outside which did come in handy. There were plenty of towels provided, which was nice. We would recommend this property to any family or group. Just wonderful.

Beautiful home just steps from the beach

We loved the look and feel of this lovely, large older home. Nice details. Quiet area. A dream location. Pretty beach just steps from the porch and patio. Great spot for Shelling and Bird Watching. Crystal clear water. Phenomenal views. Short drive to anything you want. We went to as a group of ladies to celebrate a birthday and to see manatees but could definitely see ourselves returning with our families. Good communication with property manager (Alan).

Nice family vacation!

My family and I loved this house! My family of four, my sister's family of three, and our parents vacationed here for our spring break. There was plenty of room for all 9 of us. Close to many things. Very clean. But most importantly...the beach!! Just a short walk out the door. Wonderful patio overlooking the beach also. The view was amazing! We enjoyed every sunset! The large family dining table was very nice also, as we ate dinner together there and played games at night. Communication with property management great too...they responded very quickly with any questions. We all highly recommend this place!

Hidden Gem

We've been coming to Indian Rocks beach for 40 years and loved it. We have walked & driven by this house many times, not realizing it has been here for many more years. Feels like old Florida. Beautiful large windows, wooden staircase and floors, wonderful kitchen to cook in. Great porch and patio. The walk to the beach is charming. As grandparents we had enough room to accommodate our growing family. Celebrated our daughters graduation and memories were made! Very easy to get ahold of property manager and he was willing to fix or help with whatever might have been an issue. Hope to be able to come again and keep building more blessed memories!

Family friendly home on the beach!

8 of us, 6 adults and 2 kids (daughters, son-in-law, and a couple grandkids) stayed for 5 glorious days in this old but lovely rare, loaded with character, 2 story, Florida home. Accomodated a large group incrediby well. This is not a new modern home, but it is a really cool, clean, well appointed, older home with tons of charm and a really functional and cool lay out and great air conditioning. We all just loved walking out the back porch across a short dune to the beach probably 20 steps away. We were in and out a 100 times a day with kids and all, so just absolutely an awesome set up. I spent hours on the back porch day bed listening to the surf and enjoying the sea breeze. We go to the beach all the time and spent the extra money to be in a spacious place on the beach and it was 100%+++ worth it.

Perfect spot! Couple hiccups, but otherwise great!

Amazing location! Just steps from the beach and you can watch the sunset right from the deck! Having kids with us, it was great to be able to just come back and forth without hauling loads of stuff with us. We also had an infant that was able to take a nap in the house while we still enjoyed the beach. We had a couple hiccups of the air not working which was crappy because the first night we just had to live with it and there are no screens in the windows/doors in the 2nd house, but the manager was right on it trying to get it fixed and when conclusion was made it needed another air unit, he brought a portable one in less than a half hour. The dishwasher was functional, but the latch was broke so we had to mess with it to get it to close, but the manager also had someone out to order a part for it. All in all, it was still a great stay and my family had a ton of fun! I would 100% go back!

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this house is perfect. Close proximity to restaurants and some shopping as well as grocery store in Largo. This is an older Florida style home so be aware. This property worked well for our family as we had adult children couples that used the villas and the rest of us in the main house. The outdoor space is amazing. You just walk out to the beach. Had a few issues that were reported to management already. Does need more bathroom towels for the number of people, more kitchen knives and utensils. Lots of beach towels, chairs, etc. available which was great. The home looked just like the photos online. Again, if you keep in mind this is an older Florida home, you will love it.

Enjoyed our stay but would not recommend for the price!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I just got married here in the beginning of October. This house is absolutely beautiful and the location couldn’t be any better! The inside of the house was very clean. When we arrived around 4:20 (check in at 4), the cleaning staff was leaving. She told us the towels were still in the dryer. We didn’t mind. However, later when we went to get towels out of the dryer to get showers, there were so many towels jammed into the dryer that they were all still damp. Still not that big of a deal, we just took some out and ran a couple cycles through and delayed our showers a bit. Although the inside was clean, on the outside It looked like maybe someone had a birthday party there before we arrived. There were a couple paper plates, plastic bags and a party noise maker scattered through the side yards around the house. There was tons of beach equipment and an over turned outdoor end table thrown haphazardly on the dunes in front of the house. There were rolled up socks and an over turned bucket of sand and sea shells on the back porch. None of the outdoor lights attached to the porch had bulbs in them except for one. The downstairs couch was broken in the middle and was being held up by a cinder block wrapped in a white garbage bag. The upstairs apartment sheets had a large area of orange/red spotted stains on them. We washed them again to see if it would come out but it didn’t. There were two door knobs broken. One was the downstairs bathroom, which we fixed. The other was the door that exited to the beach side. We did contact BeachHouseFL to let them know all of the issues while we were there. They were prompt and friendly in responding and asked if they could bring us clean sheets. We were checking out the next morning so told them not to worry about it. Karol asked for pictures of everything, which I sent. After that, no response to messages. Overall the place is beautiful but too pricey to have all these issues!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was gorgeous and perfect for our family vacation. We loved how it was right on the beach and in a central location. Would definitely recommend this house to anyone in the future. The only complaint I had was with the communication with the property manager. It would take them sometimes over a week to respond to a message and sometimes they wouldn’t respond at all and I would have to message again. But the property itself was wonderful!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.

Perfect old Florida home with enough space for everyone’s privacy. Yards from Gulf. Kids could run straight from house to the water. Patio for drinks in the evening watching sun set. AC after hurricane Ian was a problem dealt with immediately by management. Superb all round.
