Welcome to our cozy, freestanding pool house at Tropical Breeze, a nod to the relaxed, sunny vibes of Florida’s famed Clearwater Beach. Perfectly positioned just a 4-minute stroll from the soft, sandy beaches, this intimate retreat is ideal for couples seeking a serene beach getaway.

Inside, you’ll find a spacious sanctuary outfitted with a luxurious king-sized bed featuring a plush memory foam mattress, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of sun and sea.

The cottage is enveloped in windows, bathing the space in natural light and offering views of the surrounding tropical landscape. For those moments when you seek privacy or wish to escape the midday sun, thick blackout curtains provide a cozy, secluded ambiance.

A large, elegantly appointed bathroom with a walk-in shower adds a touch of luxury to your stay, while the convenience of a mini-fridge, microwave, and coffee maker ensures your comfort and satisfaction. Whether you're catching up on your favorite shows on the 65-inch TV or enjoying a quiet moment over coffee, every detail has been thoughtfully considered.

Outside, the cottage opens up to a heated, expansive pool and a charming deck by the water – perfect for lazy afternoons or a refreshing morning swim. The cottage’s decor, refreshed in 2024, echoes the mid-century, beach-coastal aesthetic with warm, natural woods, granite, and soft fabrics, creating a harmonious blend of style and comfort.

For guests who need to stay connected or work remotely, a dining table and comfortable armchairs provide an ideal setup without compromising on the vacation vibe.

Larry R.

great property, VBRO ruined it

I'd give the property a 10, would give VBRO a 2; my host was totally non-responsive. For example, on the dy I checked out, i asked about beach furniture I found in bag storage after check out, and only then did he bother to state I could use it. I had asked way before getting there if there was beach stuff, and got no answer. Never did figure out how to use Vbro access to TV; lucky I could bypass and take a look. And as I was leaving, with still a few minutes left before my chdck-out, cleaning lady just bardged into suite without even knowcking, and I was on toilet. Find another firm to rent from.
