Steps from Sand & Pool
We are grateful to share that this beautiful condo is Guest Ready!! It was not damaged by the storms and we are excited to start taking reservations again! Our Pool is open (not heated except by sunshine) and we anticipate renovations at the resort to be completed soon. Your stay provides the much needed support our local businesses appreciate as they recover. Many businesses have already reopened and are eager to welcome You!
Please note - remediation work is underway on first-floor units.
This lovely spacious studio is located in Gulf Winds Condominiums, a gulf facing complex with a beautiful pool. The gulf can even be seen from the window in the main space, reminding you just how close you are to the Gulf of Mexico.
This studio condo is moderately updated, and includes all necessary kitchenware, ample storage, and comfortable accommodations, whether for an extended or short stay.
This large 2nd floor studio had plenty of space and storage to make a long or short stay very comfortable. As you walk in, there is a bathroom and changing space to the right, where there is a dresser and closet for clothing. The living space includes a queen bed, pullout sofa, table and seating for 4, and around the corner is a fully equipped kitchen. From the window by the sofa, the Gulf of Mexico can be seen!
There is coin laundry in our complex that is available for guest use. There are multiple charcoal grills that are also available to guests.
You will be able to access our space through an electronic lock where you will have a personalized code. I live within 1/2 mile of this community, and am easily accessible to help solve problems! I pride myself in happy guests and great reviews, so I am readily available when needed.
This complex faces the Gulf of Mexico and is steps from the sand. Directly in front of the complex is a grille for eating breakfast or lunch (or grabbing a cold beer or Bloody Mary), as well as beach equipment rentals located right on the entrance to the beach. Within easy walking distance are dozens upon dozens of restaurants and bars, shops, convenience and grocery stores:
What we love most about this complex is the quiet location off the beaten path of Gulf Boulevard, nuzzled among several residential complexes. The option to be among the crowds or lay low is completely up to you!
A parking pass is provided, and ample parking is available around the complex. The great thing is, restaurants and shops are within walking distance, and you may likely not even move your car during your stay!
We have our own high speed internet and free long distance calling.

Great stay
We had a great stay in St Pete. It was nice to have small kitchen and the plus was the beach chairs in the closet.
