Quiet and Private, Fresh and Clean,just waiting for you

I initially rented this condo for February and March and more recentlly, January, February and March for the last 9 years. It is well located and close to restaurants, grocery store and gas stations. It is reasonably priced and provides extras such as WIFI, long distance phone calls anywhere in the U.S.A. and Canada and well maintained.

Many little things, like beach chairs & beach umbrella were put to good use. Kitchen is well equipped so you can cook your own meals if you wish. Queen size bed was comfortable.

The location is ideal for the many things to do in the area. I’d stay here again !

Very hommy place

I can't say enough about my trip to The Avalon and the unit was just nothing short of perfect! Not only was the unit itself, well stocked and well kept, the surrounding area was fantastic as well. Cavell was so sweet, and we loved it so much that this is our new favorite place to visit. We look forward to visiting our new "home away from home" again in the very near future. The condo was nothing short of heavenly!

If you are lucky enough to find this condo and rent it do not purchase anything prior to seeing what's already there. From beach chairs and umbrella to blender to a large stock of towels (A to Z/Soup to nuts) this condo offers everything needed for comfort on and off site.

As for location. My wife and I are beach people. We stayed for 8 days and visited a different beach every day. My advise is do not follow GPS. It may take you an extra few minutes but take the causeway to Clearwater Beach and follow the gulf road to all the many beaches to the south. Clearwater is appox. 10 minutes away and the others within a half an hour going south. We did venture a bit further south to Hughes Beach on Anna Marie Island. Be advised that to get there you need to take the beautiful Skyway Bridge. There should be a sign stating "VERY SCARY BRIGE" before you get on it. If your afraid of heights go to St. Pete Beach which is nearby but before the bridge. If you like roller coasters take the bridge to Anna Marie. Of the beaches we visited it would be unfair to say we preferred one over any other. They all had there own special character. After two days you will figure out how to park for free or use cheap metered parking with a very close walk to the beach.

OK. Back to the condo. As for food shopping. If you get in your car you are two minutes away from a large food (AND WINE) market across the street. If you hit the one red light it will take you 10 minutes.

Vacation consist of two things-on and off site convenience and comfort. This trip was the best of both worlds. The owner Cavell contacted us upon arrival and that is the only time we spoke. We had no need to contact her because everything was in order. It truly was Home away from Home. Thank you Cavell.
