Seashell 19

Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and the Intracoastal Waterway is this second-floor condo, boasting a lovely balcony, fine furnishings, and both sunrise and sunset views. Escape to this coastal haven!

Seashell 19 is in the Indian Shores area of St. Petersburg Beach, in a resort that overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway to the east (great sunrises) and is just a block from the beach to the west (terrific sunsets)! This beautifully-maintained resort offers a swimming pool with sun shelf, patio area, dock, waterside dining area, and more. Make yourself at home throughout your stay at Seashell 19.

The condo is spacious and contemporary, very comfortable housing up to six people in two bedrooms and 2.5 baths and a queen sized sofa sleeper in the living area. You will love having free WiFi, all linens and towels for each bed and bath provided, and a laundry room with full-sized washer and dryer right inside your condo. Talk about the comforts of home -- now you can have them all in a fantastic new setting!

Everyone's favorite spot at Seashell 19 is the long balcony with its view of lush greenery and tropical foliage. Covered against direct sun, it offers a bistro table and chairs for early-morning coffee, midday relaxation, and evening cocktails. There's plenty of room for everyone to spread out here and enjoy the balmy Gulf breezes and ever-changing Florida sky.

Through the sliding glass doors and into the condo, you find yourself in the spacious living room of Seashell 19. Leather furniture, soft carpet, and a big HDTV with cable, a DVD player, and a CD player await you here. Let the kids sprawl on the rug with their toys while the grown-ups watch a movie or listen to their favorite music as a backdrop to reminiscences and tall tales. Downtime can be the best time of all during a busy vacation!

Unlike the open-plan design of many vacation condos, Seashell 19 is divided into distinct rooms for privacy. The kitchen is particularly attractive, offering stainless-steel appliances, wooden cabinetry, and a palm-frond ceiling fan above a cool tiled floor. Open these cabinets, and you find cookware, serving-ware, utensils, and cooking gadgets galore. Want to spend Thanksgiving in St. Pete? You could cook and serve your feast from this kitchen without having to bring or buy anything but the food!

There is a big table in one corner of the living room that does triple duty. At mealtimes, it can become a dining table (although it usually loses out to the balcony!). In quiet moments, it is a laptop and journal center. And on rainy days and evenings "in," it becomes Game Central, hosting matches of Catan, Telestrations, Uno, and more! It has also been known to host a giant jigsaw puzzle, a Lego village, and lines of seashells gathered on the beach!

The common area of Seashell 19 also contains a laundry room that will become your best friend for keeping beach towels and swimsuits clean and dry. A half-bath is conveniently located here too, so during the morning rush, when everyone is trying to get ready at the same time, someone can retreat to this room for a little privacy. There are space and convenience to spare at Seashell 19!

The bedrooms are as roomy and pleasant as the common areas at this condo. The primary suite offers a king-sized 4-poster bed, along with a horizontal bank of windows, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with a separate powder area and a walk-in shower. You will love returning here each evening for some well-earned relaxation!

The second bedroom is also a suite, with a bathroom containing both a shower and tub option. This room contains two twin beds beneath a silently spinning palm-frond ceiling fan. Great for afternoon naps, the room can be darkened almost completely with the mini-blinds in both windows. And it has lots of floor space for all those beach toys and sports equipment!

St. Pete Beach is a great place to spend your Florida vacation. The Gulf waves are gentle, the sands are white, and the sunsets are unforgettable. Take the trolley into Clearwater Beach, visit Busch Gardens, and enjoy the ambiance of a true Florida beach town. Then return home to Seashell 19 and luxuriate in your home away from home! This spot is not to be missed -- make your reservations today!
