Nice unit and very responsive owner

Due to last fall’s hurricane many of the other condos in the area were impacted so we had a late change. The owner of this unit was extremely professional and timely with questions. Condo was clean and comfortable. “Directly on the beach” title for property is very misleading as overlooked the side of a neighboring building.

Great week

We arrived after hours but had no trouble getting our package and getting into the condo. It is spacious, clean and as the photos show. We enjoyed the kitchen, well equiped, during our stay. The issues we had with a tv were quickly resolved as the owner bought and had it replaced with a new large tv and maintenance at the facility is attentive and very nice. We love the Sand Dollar, its location is at the “short walk to the water” end of the stretch of beach and the pier and beach are right outside the gate. We love the less crowded noisy area, yet close to the restaurants and shopping.

Great Family Vacation

We had a great time at this property. The location is very convenient to numerous restaurants and is just steps from the beach. The unit is very well stocked with just about anything you would need. There were tons of beach items that we were able to borrow which saved us from needing to bring or purchase our own. We ran into a minor hiccup with a broken microwave but I only mention it to give props to the owner Hector and the staff at the office. Hector ordered a new microwave right away and the front office staff were kind enough to let us borrow a tabletop unit while we waited for the new one to be installed. We would absolutely look to stay here again when we come back to the area!

Sand Dollar Exceptional Place to Stay

My 2 adult daughters, 5 grandchildren ages 5-13, and myself had a wonderful stay at the Sand Dollar. This is our first time staying here. The place was clean, secure, and quiet. Loved that the beach is right by the pool and shopping was close by. Would happily recommend it to everyone.

Very Nice Stay

We had a great vacation at this condo. Great location, right on the beach and close to Tampa & Clearwater for non-beach activities. The toddlers loved the sand toys avaliable for use by tenants. The on-site property management is a helpful benefit. We had a couple small maintenance issues that were quickly resolved by the on-site property management & maintenance crew.

Family spring break vacation

This place was so nice. My grandkids loved every second in the warm pool. The staff was nice enough to let my youngest daughter have a key to the pool bathrooms and lay by the pool because she got there before the rest of us. They also kept her luggage behind the desk when we all left her flight was late so they let her enjoy the pool til it time to leave for the airport. Wish the weather was a bit warmer but all in all we all had a great time

Wonderful property

We loved everything about the location and condo setup. The only thing we wish was better was the cleanliness. The floor looked like it hadnt been swept, the microwave and oven were dirty and the toliet was filthy. If this wouldnt have been the case would have given 5 stars.

Great place

This condo was great. We normally stay ground level facing the ocean but waited to late to book. This condo ended up beinf perfect. It is on the second floor but its right by the steps so its pretty easy. The building is locked up and its frustrating trying to remember the key but that wouldnt stop us from staying there again. The condo is very well stocked with everything you would need. The kicthen is so stocked there isnt much room for groceries but thats a good probelm to have. Hector was great to deal with and always replied quickly.

About the host

Hosted by Hector and Barbara DeAguiar

Our home is in Norther New Jersey but our hearts are in Indian Shores, we have 2 wonderful children and 2 precious dogs.
The moment we first saw our condo and this beautiful complex we fell in love and bought it. We know you will also have a GREAT TIME here.

Why they chose this property

Since the moment we first visit Indian Shores we fell in love with the beach, area and the people. For over a year we search for a place that will be different from most vacation condos. The moment we found this place we both fell in love with it. The large spacious condo, the ocean front heated pool and Jacuzzi, and picnic area. Centrally located to activities and shopping, but quiet and relaxing, and most of all the only private complex with our private pier on the Gulf. Most of all the white powder sandy beach and amazing sunsets.

What makes this property unique

Large Heated ocean front pool and large Jacuzzi. A picnic area facing the ocean with Tiki tables and 5 BBQ's grills. Beach volley ball court and Cabana rentals. Lets not forget the only complex with it's own private pier in the Gulf.
