Beautifully decorated, clean condo
The Rodrigues family has been enjoying the Reef Club in Indian Rocks Beach for the past 25 years. We have been very fortunate to rent from Rick and Charlotte Gonzalez for the past several years. The condo has all the aminities and comforts of home and the owners go above and beyond regarding the extra details. The condo is clean and inviting and provides everything you need for a wonderful vacation. I highly recommend renting from Rick and Charlotte who are highly accommodating to make your stay an enjoyable memory. We will definitely be back next year!!! The Rodrigues Family Toronto, Ontario

Perfect in every way!
We booked this condo for our July 2017 "last hurrah" vacation with the whole family, as our oldest one is heading to college. On arrival, the condo was in immaculate condition! As you walk through the front door, you can't help but head straight toward the balcony door, opening to an amazing view of the ocean and the beach below. On our fist day, and every day thereafter, we were greeted by dolphins swimming right in front of the condo. The condo had everything we needed, and plenty of space for our family of five. A huge bonus were some of the beach toys and boogie boards, which our kids absolutely loved and used daily! The property itself is very clean, and groundskeepers are maintaining it daily. We went ghost "crabbing" on the beach late at night (bring your flashlights!), and were greeted by a security guard in the garage ... just being friendly, and making sure everything is OK. There's plenty of restaurants around with a variety of food choices, and you are a short drive away from a grocery store if you decide to eat in. If dolphins below the property are not enough, you are about 15min away from the Clearwater Marine Aquarium (visiting Winter, Hope, Sebastian, etc. was a must for us!). For a great shelling experience, we recommend you take about 40min drive south to Ft. De Sotto park. Tampa Rays were in town, so that was an added bonus ... but if shopping is what you like to do, there's plenty of stores to go around in Clearwater and Tampa. The owners are great to deal with, and were very accommodating. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and a very relaxing vacation. Thank you Rick and Charlotte for opening your home to us!

Perfect vaction location! Lovely home!
From the welcome mat to the balcony shutters (great idea!) and everything in between, just a great place to stay. The tile floors make cleanup a breeze and the closet full of beach "stuff" was great! We enjoyed our stay and the nights we cooked dinner was very special - made use of the grill down by the pool, the fabulous stove/oven and we sat at the great dining table. The view has to be one of the best in the complex (Reef Club) and I was glad to see the recycling bins and put those to use a lot! This condo was competitively priced, I believe, or at least close, and worth the extra $$ Rick and Charlotte were lovely to work with and answered all my questions. I highly recommend this condo to all!

Perfect Escape
Oceanfront, granite countertops, tile shower, nice beds & it's beautifully decorated-as seen in pictures. Complete relaxation-from morning coffee on your own private balcony over looking the ocean to beach walks at sunset...it's more private compared to a lot of the bigger hotel chains down the beach, which I prefer. Accommodating for all ages, my 2 year old son LOVED the pool and my dad was extremely happy with the flat screen tvs watching his old westerns on the comfy leather couches or the king size bed. Also thanks to the owners for providing beach chairs with head rests & cup holders and umbrellas! Great restaurants nearby, salt rock grill, beachcomber and guppies were our top 3, but grills are outside if you like to cook! Def recommend to anyone!

New inside with gorgeous amenities and appointments throughout make this luxurious 3 bedroom and 2 full bathroom condo the focal point for your next great vacation. Sleeps eight, and from its penthouse central location, you can actually view the sunset from the kitchen, dining room, living room and balcony. You can also enjoy the sunset from the hot tub, tennis courts, pool and of course - the beach! Reef Club is a 5-story 55-unit condominium complex with assigned private parking, a beachside heated swimming pool, jacuzzi, outdoor BBQ grills and a fabulous beach. Reef Club is centrally located between Clearwater Beach 5 mins to the north and St. Petersburg Beach 10 mins to the south. You are only 30-40 minutes from Tampa International & Clearwater Airports and Busch Gardens. Disney World, Universal Studios and world famous Orlando attractions are just 90 minutes away. Our penthouse beachfront condo is a great place to relax and vacation. A great location for all. Make it your place for your next great vacation!
Don't need a car - extended stay convenience: Great feature - you can take a shuttle from the Tampa Airport to Indian Rocks Beach - about $32. Also, and for one price ALL DAY, the Sun Coast Trolley will take you from St. Pete Beach (Treasure Island) to Sand Key (Clearwater) with unlimited stops - all for one price!
Again, you don't need a car - other family members can arrive earlier/later when you give them your digital security code. AND if you do have a car (or are on business) the significant others can still get around - if they are not at the beach or the pool all day long. Again, great shuttle to the airport and great trolley on the beach - you don't need a car but Gulf Boulevard is great to cruise.
Rentals and packed sand: There are many rentals within 5 miles: skiing, para-sailing, jet-ski - check out the owner's webpage a few lines below for even more information, phone numbers and links. The packed sand is great for jogging, bike riding or just walking on the beach. Watch the Seabirds at eye level as they glide by your Reef Club vacation penthouse.
Restaurants and places: Best ice cream in the world! Candy Kitchen - they make their own - go there. They have the same ice cream at 'Candy Kitchen' (one block north of Reef Club just the portions are not as large.
Salt Rock Grill - atmosphere! Great value - surf & turf - more go before 5:00 for extraordinary prices!
Crabby Bill's - Seafood - always happening. Within very close walking distance - TJ's, Keegan's, Guppys and PJ's Oyster Bar - all good.
THE Pub - down the street. Dine at the outside bar evenings and watch the Intracoastal. TJ's Italian Pizza, Picata and Sea Bass. Maggie Mae's Sunrise Cafe - in Sand Key for great breakfasts. Try the bagel Tuna for lunch at Lighthouse Doughnuts - and of course the donuts and breakfasts are great! Canadians say 'We had their bagel sandwiches and they were better than the Canadian ones!
All the above located on Gulf Boulevard.
Reef Club is centrally located between Clearwater Beach to the north and St. Petersburg Beach to the south. You are only 30-40 minutes from Tampa International Airport, Clearwater (smaller) Airport and Busch Gardens (about an hour). Disney World and Universal Studios are about 90 minutes away in Orlando. Our penthouse beachfront condo is a great place to relax and vacation and easy to get to for both domestic and international vacationers.
