Why Book Your Indian Rocks Beach Vacation Rental Direct

Maybe you found one of our homes on Airbnb or Vrbo. Maybe a friend stayed with us last summer, or you spotted us on Instagram or Facebook. However you got here, you can book the same Stay Coastal IRB homes right on this site. Here’s what booking direct means, what you’ll see in your quote, and how it works.

Same homes, same calendars

These are the same four Indian Rocks Beach properties you’ve seen on the big platforms:

• Coastal Manor: 5 bedrooms and 6 full baths on the Intracoastal, sleeps 10
• Coastal Charm: a renovated 3-bedroom pool home, sleeps 8
• Coastal Boutique: four renovated 2-bedroom condos about 0.1 mile from the beach, or the whole building for 24
• Coastal Hideaway and Coastal Getaway: one block from the beach, or book both as the duplex for 16

Availability for every home runs through one reservation system, so the calendar you see on our Search & Book page is live. If a date shows open here, it’s open.

No booking-platform service fees

When you book here, there’s no booking platform in the middle, so no platform service fee is added to your quote. You pay for your stay and the home’s standard fees, and that’s it.

A full quote, up front

Before you pay, the booking widget shows your complete total. Here’s what goes into it:

• Nightly rent for your dates.
• A cleaning fee, which varies by home.
• A Property Damage Fee: $99 per stay, or $49 for a single Coastal Boutique unit. It’s a non-refundable damage waiver that covers accidental damage during your stay. It doesn’t cover intentional damage, negligence or broken house rules.
• A pet fee, if you’re bringing one: $100 per pet, per stay, not per night. Most of our homes welcome pets, except Coastal Charm. See which homes allow pets on our pet-friendly rentals page.
• Taxes.

You’ll see every line before you pay. Fees can change over time, so the widget always shows the current numbers. One more thing to know: a temporary hold may be placed on your card for incidentals, and you’re responsible for any damage the waiver doesn’t cover.

Talk to the people who look after the homes

Questions about a pet, a big group, or a golf cart go straight to our local team, not to a platform’s call center. Call or text (727) 254-2022, or email tom@fldvr.com. We know these homes well, so we can tell you which one has the bunk room, which has the sun-shelf pool, and which is closest to the sand.

A few questions guests often ask us before booking:

• Which home is closest to the beach? Coastal Boutique, about 0.1 mile, then Hideaway and Getaway at one block.
• Which homes have a hot tub? Coastal Manor (pool and spa) and the Hideaway & Getaway building.
• Do all the homes come with a golf cart? Yes, every stay includes one. See our rentals with a golf cart.

Simple, clear policies

Our policies are short and simple, and they’re all on one page:

• Check-in after 4 PM and checkout before 10 AM.
• Minimum stay: 3 nights on most dates, 4 on some peak and holiday dates.
• Cancellation: cancel more than 30 days before arrival for a 100% refund. Cancellations within 30 days of arrival aren’t refunded. We suggest considering travel insurance for peace of mind.
• House rules: registered guests only, no parties or events, and please respect our neighbors.

Easier planning for groups and pets

Booking direct is especially helpful when your trip isn’t a simple one. If you’re planning a reunion and weighing Coastal Manor against the Hideaway & Getaway Duplex or the whole Boutique building, we can walk you through the bedroom setups and help you match the home to your headcount. If you’re bringing a dog, we’ll tell you the limit at each home and the size rule at Coastal Boutique. And if you need more golf carts for a big group, extra carts can be added for $85 a day (4-seat) or $125 a day (6-seat).

Secure checkout

Payment is taken through a secure checkout when you book, and the full total is charged at that time. Your reservation is confirmed as soon as the payment goes through, and your confirmation arrives by email. Before arrival, you’ll get your check-in details, usually the day before or the morning of your arrival.

How to book direct in three steps

1. Go to Search & Book and enter your dates and number of guests.
2. Pick your home and review the full quote.
3. Pay at checkout and watch for your confirmation email.

That’s it. Same homes, a clear quote and a real person to call. Check availability for your Indian Rocks Beach trip.
