Backyard is the BEACH/Unique Beach House/Beautiful

Welcome to “Coquina Beachfront Haven” by Clearwater Beach Vacation Homes


Step into a coastal dream at our cherished beachfront property, nestled on the sun-kissed shores of Indian Rocks Beach. Our home, steeped in history, stands as one of the original homesteads of Indian Rocks Beach, offering a blend of classic charm and modern comfort.

Experience serenity and the lull of ocean waves in our spacious main house, boasting a trio of second-floor bedrooms with breathtaking views and an easily accessible bath just outside all the rooms. Downstairs, you'll find another bathroom amid a canvas of homely amenities.

Just a sea breeze away is our inviting cottage. On its first level, a cozy bedroom awaits alongside a welcoming kitchen and a snug sitting area equipped with cable TV, perfect for intimate evenings or a lazy afternoon. Ascend to the cottage's upper sanctuary where a sumptuous queen bed, cable TV, and an additional bathroom offer a private retreat under the stars.

Every corner of our beachfront abode whispers tales of laughter, rest, and memories waiting to be made. It's more than a vacation home—it's a gateway to the salty allure of the Gulf, a space designed with joy and intended for connection. Here, the sunsets paint the sky daily, and the sand beckons for barefoot adventures.

Let our home be the canvas for your next unforgettable getaway. Discover, indulge, and allow the spirit of the sea to infuse every moment. We can't wait to welcome you to your paradise found.

The property features a main house with three bedrooms and a cozy two-bedroom cottage. The cottage functions like a duplex, with separate units on each floor.

Family Vacation

We had a blast. Amazing location. Beautiful beach. House was just beautiful with breathtaking views. Alan was amazing to work with. Very responsive and caring. Checked on us multiple times to make sure our stay was great and if we needed anything. Our family LOVED IT. We would rate it 10/10 stars (sparkling stars as my niece says). Simply wonderful. The most beautiful sunsets.

Perfect getaway!

Beautiful property, amazing view, perfect location. The house has all the space and amenities you need. The property is steps from the beach, with a bit more landscaped privacy than the surrounding homes. Location is perfectly situated. Management was amazing, but not intrusive. Without a doubt, we will be back.

Perfect Beach Stay!

The property was beautiful- it exceed our expectations from the pictures. You can’t beat the access to the beach- being 10 feet from the sand made it such a breeze to go to and from. Allen was very quick to respond to any texts and concerns!

The house I've been looking for!

This is such a great house! I'd been looking for an older house right on the beach in this area for several years, and so glad I found this one. It was perfect for my family and had everything we needed: a well stocked kitchen with wine cooler, brand new pack-n-play, beach towels, beach chairs and toys, etc (need to bring or rent your own beach umbrella if that's your thing). The beach was spacious and not crowded at all, and literally steps away from the house. There are lovely mature trees and loads of space for parking (rare in this area). The property seems to be maintained well by the property management company, and they proved to be fast and friendly responders whenever we needed something. I highly recommend this place - 6 out of 5 stars. And I will definitely be back!

Great Stay!

This property offers a comfortable roomy stay with a breath taking view. We went with our five adult children a friend and two grandchildren. Everyone was extremely comfortable. The kitchen is a great size and the dining table size was also great. Plenty of space for everyone to visit but also allows for folks to congregate in different areas of the home-sitting area, den and beautiful porch. The AC works great. Washer and dryer were also wonderful.The blower was very handy as it allowed for very quick clean up of sand. We will definitely consider staying here again. The property managers were very easy to work with and communicated quickly.

Great Stay, great location

We had a great stay at Coquina. House was right on the beach with a porch that had amazing sunset views. House was clean upon arrival and the staff was responsive with respect to addressing a sliding glass door issue on our first night.

Fantastic Beach Location

The Coquina house was a wonderful experience for our family and we hope to return for an annual stay. This unique house is lovely. Plenty of room for 3 couples and three older children. The kitchen and eating area was spacious, and there were plenty of kitchen tools, dishes, glasses, dish towels, etc. which made preparing meals very easy. The location was outstanding, as we were footsteps to the beach. We did our best to keep the sand from getting inside, and perhaps a hand-held vacuum would be a good idea to keep inside by the door. There was a rechargeable blower to use outside which did come in handy. There were plenty of towels provided, which was nice. We would recommend this property to any family or group. Just wonderful.

Great Property

The house is in a great location for a week or weekend at the beach. While it's not a brand new house, it's full of character and charm. We had 8 adults stay for a long weekend and it was awesome! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a location in the area. We are looking to come back in the summer.

Whole family spent a week, and it was perfect. Amazing beach front setting. Gorgeous sunsets. House and out-buildings fit our family well and were all in great shape. House is such a classic. And walking to restaurants, brewery and store is so convenient and charming. A perfect week.

Nice family vacation!

My family and I loved this house! My family of four, my sister's family of three, and our parents vacationed here for our spring break. There was plenty of room for all 9 of us. Close to many things. Very clean. But most importantly...the beach!! Just a short walk out the door. Wonderful patio overlooking the beach also. The view was amazing! We enjoyed every sunset! The large family dining table was very nice also, as we ate dinner together there and played games at night. Communication with property management great too...they responded very quickly with any questions. We all highly recommend this place!

Perfect spot! Couple hiccups, but otherwise great!

Amazing location! Just steps from the beach and you can watch the sunset right from the deck! Having kids with us, it was great to be able to just come back and forth without hauling loads of stuff with us. We also had an infant that was able to take a nap in the house while we still enjoyed the beach. We had a couple hiccups of the air not working which was crappy because the first night we just had to live with it and there are no screens in the windows/doors in the 2nd house, but the manager was right on it trying to get it fixed and when conclusion was made it needed another air unit, he brought a portable one in less than a half hour. The dishwasher was functional, but the latch was broke so we had to mess with it to get it to close, but the manager also had someone out to order a part for it. All in all, it was still a great stay and my family had a ton of fun! I would 100% go back!

Beautiful home just steps from the beach

We loved the look and feel of this lovely, large older home. Nice details. Quiet area. A dream location. Pretty beach just steps from the porch and patio. Great spot for Shelling and Bird Watching. Crystal clear water. Phenomenal views. Short drive to anything you want. We went to as a group of ladies to celebrate a birthday and to see manatees but could definitely see ourselves returning with our families. Good communication with property manager (Alan).

Hidden Gem

We've been coming to Indian Rocks beach for 40 years and loved it. We have walked & driven by this house many times, not realizing it has been here for many more years. Feels like old Florida. Beautiful large windows, wooden staircase and floors, wonderful kitchen to cook in. Great porch and patio. The walk to the beach is charming. As grandparents we had enough room to accommodate our growing family. Celebrated our daughters graduation and memories were made! Very easy to get ahold of property manager and he was willing to fix or help with whatever might have been an issue. Hope to be able to come again and keep building more blessed memories!

Family friendly home on the beach!

8 of us, 6 adults and 2 kids (daughters, son-in-law, and a couple grandkids) stayed for 5 glorious days in this old but lovely rare, loaded with character, 2 story, Florida home. Accomodated a large group incrediby well. This is not a new modern home, but it is a really cool, clean, well appointed, older home with tons of charm and a really functional and cool lay out and great air conditioning. We all just loved walking out the back porch across a short dune to the beach probably 20 steps away. We were in and out a 100 times a day with kids and all, so just absolutely an awesome set up. I spent hours on the back porch day bed listening to the surf and enjoying the sea breeze. We go to the beach all the time and spent the extra money to be in a spacious place on the beach and it was 100%+++ worth it.
