About this property

The Best of the Beach & Bay: 3,000 Sq Ft Waterfront Beach Townhouse:

Stunning views and easy beach access make this waterfront (2,600 sq ft living space, 3,000 sq ft total, 3 bedroom / 3 bath) Townhome perfect for families and close friends. This property is truly best of the beach and the bay.

Feel right at home with everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay, including a full kitchen, outdoor grill, docks for fishing and your boat, Wifi and cable TV, washer/dryer, and garage parking.

Venture out to our world-famous white-sand beaches, great restaurants (including our pick for the best Grouper sandwich in Florida), charming shops, local fish-market, and colorful beach bars, all within a short walk.

The townhouse sleeps up to 10 people. There are 3 formal bedrooms on the third floor, each with a high-end queen size memory foam bed. To expand sleeping option for larger groups, there is a 4th full bed on the second floor next to the kitchen, and we can provide 2 roll out cots with linens upon request.

SNOW BIRDS: Rates are discounted for multi-week stays.

PET OWNERS: We consider pets on a case by case basis.

Read on for our detailed description of the property:

This Mediterranean-style townhome truly offers the best of the beach and the bay. The property is water front with absolutely stunning wide water views. Your backyard is the expansive Boca Ciega Bay and just a block away, in less than three minutes, you can walk to the beach with the beautiful white-sands that Redington Shores is famous for. With miles of sprawling beach and away from the large-chain hotels, you and your family will have plenty of room to enjoy the Gulf shore. When you are ready to change the pace, fish from private docks, enjoy water sports on the bay, or just sit back and enjoy the view. The bay is home to Florida's signature water birds and is frequently visited by dolphins. This particular combination of bay-front and beach access is unique to this location and cannot be found anywhere else in this area.

With more privacy than a condo complex, we welcome you to stay with us in comfort . We are continuously updating this town house. Our most recent updates include fresh paint, new curtains, and new high end washer and dryer.

On the third floor, the master bedroom is bay-facing with stunning views and its own private balcony. The master bath has a double vanity with granite countertops. There is a separate walk-in shower and a deep soaking-tub. Storage space is ample with a walk-in closet. Extra privacy is afforded by the landing which separates the master from the other two bedrooms. The washer and dryer are accessible from the landing for ideal convenience. The second bathroom is again finished with granite counter-tops and has a combination shower-bath. The second and third bedrooms face west with a partial ocean view.

The heart of the townhouse is the open layout of the second floor with beautiful bay views from the living room that opens onto the water-front balcony. The space is roomy for families and groups of friends. Guests stay connected with cable and Wifi available throughout the townhome. The formal dining space is complimented by a fully appointed kitchen where entertaining is made easy with a spacious functional layout, granite countertops, and dark hardwood cabinets. Next to the kitchen is a flexible space that can be used for breakfast or additional sleeping space for larger families or groups. There is a bathroom at the end of the kitchen with a shower-bath combination. Flooring is tile throughout the townhouse.

The ground floor features a bonus room and a 2-car garage. Sliding glass doors from the bonus room open up onto the back patio with a gas grill. Two docks are available for guest and resident use. The large bay is perfect for relaxing, fishing and water-sports.

There are several options for food and drinks within walking distance and some great fine dining within a short drive. John's Pass Village and Boardwalk is a short drive and has something for everyone with restaurants, entertainment, and beach-themed shops. One place that you don't want to miss is practically next door. Wahoo's may not look like much from the outside, but for an authentic fresh-off-the-boat grouper sandwich, this casual local bar is the place to go.

Thank you for your interest in this "best of the beach and the bay" townhouse. We know you will love it here because we love it too.

Inside, the heart of the townhouse is the open layout of the second floor, which provides roomy space for large families, groups, and our guests from the north who like to who like to stay with us for a month or more at a time. The living room features bay facing sliding glass doors that open on to the second floor balcony. The space is perfect for waterfront gathering and relaxing. Staying connected is possible too with cable and Wifi available throughout the townhome. Moving away from the bay, the living room flows into the formal dining space which is complimented by the grand staircase. In the kitchen, entertaining is made easy with a spacious functional layout complete with high-end appliances. Granite counter-tops are complimented with dark hard wood cabinets. Beyond the kitchen, a flex area can be used for breakfast or additional sleeping space for larger families or groups. There is a bathroom at the end of the kitchen with a shower-bath combination. Flooring is tile throughout the townhouse.

Upstairs, the third floor features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Each bedroom contains a queen bed. The master bedroom is bay-facing with sliding glass doors that open onto the third floor balcony.

Our family has been welcoming guests to Redington Shores now for almost 40 years. Locals and some long-time return guests may still remember the charm of the old Sinbad Motel owned by our grandparents from the time when going to the beach meant putting a family in the car, stopping at a place that felt right, and enjoying a care-free week at the water. The property was re-imagined as The Emilia Town-homes in 2008. Guests can now experience the best of Boca Ciega Bay and the Gulf beaches with over 3000 square feet of Mediterranean-themed space to call (vacation) home.

Bay views and easy beach access
Super spacious townhome, clean and wonderfully located. Short walk to the beach and multiple restaurants. Gorgeous views of the bay from the balconies. Plenty of seating in the living and dining room for a big group. Only dings....beds are soft, kitchen Teflon pans are pretty worn. On the plus side, lots of beach equipment left by others even though rental agreement does not guarantee this. We'd definitely book again!

Vacation/Spring training
Great location. Inlet behind the house had about 5 dolphins every morning. Property is close to a good number of restaurants. House was very spacious and worked out great for us. We highly recommend.

Spring Break
We had a wonderful week at this beautiful townhome! The location was great- across the street and one block to beach access. Also close and walkable to some great restaurants and ice cream shops! We loved Seabreeze and of course Wahoos! The view of the bay was amazing/ we saw many different birds and dolphins almost every morning. Plenty of towels for in unit use, as well as kitchen items. Although we knew ahead of time that there were no beach towels and probably no beach items for use, this was still a bummer. Flying in you can’t really bring those things. We did bring a beach blanket and beach towels- needed an extra suitcase. We bought 4 beach chairs, a cooler, and an umbrella at Walmart. The wagon at the house was rusty but usable. Instead of leaving all of the things or throwing them away, we ended up giving the items we purchased to renters staying in the unit next to us to use. They said they would pay it forward as well. Overall we liked the townhome very much, beds were ok, showers all good, and we loved the location! Great week of relaxing and making memories with our family!

Excellent View & Accommodations
Excellent property and location. Clean and pictures on Vrbo accurate. View of the bay off lanai was perfect and full of wild life. Only drawback was the amount of steps every day - about 20 from garage level to living room and another 25 from living room to bedrooms. Elevator in condo but not accessible by renters. Also, condo is dog friendly but city is not.
