Take the public trolley around the island or go as far south as Treasure Island! NOTE: Since the house and cottage can be rented separately as well, the availability calendar will not be up-to-date. Please contact us for current availability. Check-in is 4:00pm or later; check-out is promptly at 10:00am to leave time for cleaning crew. IMPORTANT: We do not advertise on Craigslist! Be safe and only deal with the owner. COVID-19 Pinellas County is open for short term vacation rentals with guidelines that we are following in full. We take the safety of our guest and cleaning staff extremely seriously. Our cleaning crews are using sanitizer and disinfectant on all surfaces before your arrival and as cleaning is taking longer than previously it is unlikely that we can offer early check-ins or late checkouts. Our houses have well equipped kitchens and we believe that separate units are the best option for vacationing in the time of Covid-19. Florida is seeing an increase in cases at the moment and we stress the importance of guests taking travel insurance that would cover them in the event that they no longer want to travel to Florida. In the event that the administration halts vacation rentals we would of course refund guests as we could no longer accept them. We have to stress that after two months of cancellations and re-bookings we will not be able to offer refunds if Clearwater Beach remains open for vacation rentals but guests decide not to travel.

Neighborhood
We fell in love with the North Beach neighborhood over twenty years ago. It is a calm and safe residential area away from the hustle and bustle but still just a mile away from buzzing Clearwater Beach. The beach walk north to secluded Caladesi Island is one of the highlights of Clearwater that many tourists miss. Enjoy one of Florida's top voted beaches just 32 steps from your door!
Guest Access
When you book the House and Cottage you will be the only people staying on the property. You will have access to the hot tub and both patio areas.

It is easy to get around the beach with the Jolly Trolley. Look for the sun signs that mark the pick up places. From our home it is a 2 minutes walk to the next bus stop. The trolleys run until midnight.
