Relaxing Stay

This condo was the perfect place to spend a few days on Florida’s gulf coast. The space was as described, and located on a very quiet island. The pool was very nice too!

Nice Winter Getaway

This is our second time staying at this property and it was just as nice as the first time. The owners were very nice and responded quickly to questions. They were also flexible as we ended up have to add two extra nights to our trip due to bad weather in the northeast. The property is exactly as described and had everything we needed for our week stay. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

Quiet Location with Gorgeous Views

My husband and I had a lovely time here. The condo was clean and tidy and in close driving distance to many restaurants and beaches. We enjoyed use of the pool as well as fishing off the dock and had some really neat experiences seeing dolphins and manatees not far from the dock.

Fun Weekend Away

We had a fun 3 days staying at this beautiful property. We were in the area moving our daughter home from Eckerd College for the summer and enjoying a weekend away. The highlight of the trip was watching the manatees play from our balcony each day. I’m a manatee lover, so this was extra special. We will definitely keep this place in mind for future visits.

Nice and clean

We were only there for about 12 hours but it was perfect for what we needed. Drinking coffee and watching the manatee in the back canal “playing” was the highlight of our morning! Thank you.

FANTASTIC Location!

Great 1br condo. Very comfortable. Location is fantastic! So calm & peaceful. Pool is warm! Owner has lots of extra stuff we don't normally get: plenty of towels, beach chairs, cards, videos, lots of toilet paper, coffee, sugar, spices, reusable bags, etc. Nice balcony with calming view. Two nice grills. Very impressed. Would definitely recommend!

Didn’t even get to check in

Had messaged the host a few times about potentially checking in early. Gets to the day of check-in and school is dark. Contacted Vrbo, also could not get a hold of the host. Wouldn’t advise staying here unless you have a back up plan

Great place!

We had a great time! I was very impressed with the kitchen items that were stocked! They have supplied all the pots, pans, kitchen utensils, small appliances, and cleaning supplies you could think of! Communication with the owners during our stay was great!! This is our second time staying at this condominium complex (1st time in this particular rental) and we’ve really enjoyed staying at Holiday Island Condos. I hate to add anything “bad” but the bathroom could really use some attention. We weren’t able to give our son a bath because the shower pull is stuck up and the shower head can’t be turned to decrease/increase the stream so it comes out quite hard in some spots. The shower drain cover worked but it would’ve been nice to have a cover to block hair from going down the drain. The bathroom sink drain needs to be replaced as it’s broken and can get knocked down to stop the water from draining. These weren’t a huge deal to us and we made it work, but they are inexpensive fixes that could be made! I’d stay here again for the price we were able to get! We are happy with our stay!
