We absolutely loved this condo! Clean, comfortable, and the most amazing view! The owners really thought of everything and made it feel like a home away from home. The beach was beautiful and serene, not overcrowded, and location was perfect! id highly recommend The Shore Thing and can't wait to come back!

Disappointed in room

We were disappointed to find the accommodations were not great. Floors were dirty, burned out light bulbs, beach equipment filthy. Sheets did not fit bed. No working coffee pot when we arrived. Only one elevator working and very dirty. For the price we could have done better. Great balcony view.

Great location. Close to restaurants and bars. Very close to the beach! They had chairs, an umbrella and cooler in the room for use which was great because we flew in! Ordered food from Publix which was very nice. The bed was very comfortable! Will definitely return.

Great Property, but better Hosts

The property was very nice, clean, fully supplied for a wonderful time at the beach. Check in process was seamless. The only complaint I would have to say is parking on the property is very tight, but they do have an overflow lot across the street. The best part of our experience was the helpfulness of the hosts, and their willingness to go over and above. Thank you.

Great view/clean room

First off, the condo was clean and tidy. The beach was great because of the lack of people and the view was top notch from the room. They were doing construction on the building, which we knew prior, but really couldn't tell once inside. Was a bit cramped for four people (2 adults. 2 children) because the lack of storage space for the luggage and bags. Would be better suited just for two people. The lack of parking at the condo was a bit frustrating, especially when loading/unloading, but the lot across the street was easy enough. We made due and was only a minor inconvenience. Also seemed that most public parking on the island was "paid" parking and that got annoying as well. We just planned our shopping/eating trips around free parking. All in all, it was still a good location and a good trip.

Excellent View and a Quiet Beach

This condo is in a beachside inn so it is on the smaller side but has plenty of space for 2 people. The oceanfront balcony was great and perfect to catch some beautiful sunsets. The beach itself was very quiet and peaceful in front of the inn. Publix was about a 15 minute walk down the road, which was super convenient. The restaurants in the area were ok, good for quick bites and simple food and drinks. The sea dog brewing company was about a 10 minute walk away, and more restaurants in town about a 15-20 minute walk. We really enjoyed restaurants in Tampa and St. Petersburg, both cities within 35+ minute driving distance away. Overall enjoyed our stay here, the owners stock it up nicely with all you need for the beach, and even a large DVD collection. There’s a tiki bar by the pool to get some great drinks and you can take them to the beach. I also never had to contact the owner/ rental company for anything. Will definitely consider staying again.
