Awesome stay! Highly recommended!…read more We needed a quiet, relaxing vacation where we could bring our dog. Island Paradise delivered. The couple who owns them is super nice and so helpful with our visit. The cottages are nice and you can tell some well-thought effort went into updating them. Everything there was quiet. The pool was nice and the tiki hut made for a nice place to chat with fellow relaxers. The beach is a short five minute walk. With a less-than ten minute walk, you're at John's Pass with shopping, restaurants and bars. We had planned on going to other places while visiting, but we barely left the radius around the cottages.

We had chosen to go to Florida on vacation with our two kids (aged 8 months and 3,5 years) for some…read moreweeks vacation and were so lucky to find this place. The villas are perfect for staying for a longer time and everything you could wish for in a kitchen is there. It is extremely clean, very beautifully decorated and just perfect. The hosts (june and Bill) are so friendly and helpful that we felt like family when we left. The other people staying there were also extremely nice and the atmosphere was wonderful. This was supported by the tradition that everybody staying there would gather for a glass of wine or a drink at around 5 in the afternoon in the tiki-hut. Even though we were the only ones with children we felt so welcome. I would love to go there again and I am sure that we would feel just as welcome the next time. We stayed in Villa Paradiso, which was the largest of the villas, but I also saw the inside of some of the other villas and they looked just as nice. The beach was a short 3 min walk from the cottages and John's Pass was around 5-10 minutes away when walking.

Just a 45 minute drive from Tampa airport is a little slice of Paradise, Madeira Beach. I stayed…read moreat the Seaview condominiums. The Condo holds up to 7 people comfortably. There is a washer and dryer. 3 bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an amazing view of the ocean from both the huge master bedroom and the living room. To get to the beach you just walk through the garage. At the end of the garage is a gate to a huge pool area with a hot tub. Walk pass the hot tub and there is a private gate to the beach. You can only get on the beach if you know the code to the gate which means not to crowded. The beachfront is raked every morning and has a sheriff that drives a 4 wheeler on the beach so you feel very safe. Then there is the clear blue water. As we sat on our huge balcony we were able to enjoy some dolphins playing in the water. At the front of the condo across the street is a few great restaurants. Then there's Johns Pass that has lots of shops along with any kinds of water activity you can think of. I can think of no better place to visit than Madeira beach. For rental dates please contact Tammy.

All the bars and restaurants are stumbling distance, you're on the bay with a great view, and you're just across the street from a bank access. While the other peasants are stuck on the beach, you can go back to this incredible place at any time during the day if you need a break from the beach or your annoying aunt. We price shopped Thunderbirds and a few other "resorts" but this was a much better deal on price, and you get a much better stay in the end. Martin responded within minutes, or seconds, maybe instantly to any questions we had. Phenomenal host.

I mean cheap as in ... 600.00 for an entire week stay. Our patio overlooked the pool. The location is perfect. It is directly across the street from the beach and the view is not obstructed. The condo is fully stocked with beach accessories, some food, games, movies etc. It is a home away from home. It also sleeps 8 people! There are no bugs in the unit that I have seen. It's exceptionally clean. It's also only a mile and a half from the boardwalk and is close to numerous other activities. There are some cute little shops within walking distance as well. The beach was very uncrowded, and relaxing. Definitely a good spot for families or anyone who likes to save on traveling. The walk to the beach isn't much different than oceanfront properties I've stayed at in the past. (Especially on the gulf side.) The price and location, is unbeatable. It was a clean area. We didn't see anything sketchy, and felt safe. There's also a dock where you can fish on their private property. We caught some fish and we didn't need a license. That was nice too. Even nicer, was that the condo had that gear too. I didn't have to pack much.

The grounds could use a little help, but its a lot of space for two people to take care of. The dog-friendly nature of the resort is awesome. Its so quiet across the road from the beach and the proximity to the Johns Pass village makes it easy to get along with out much driving. The prices are a little steep, but not horrible, the place didn't seem too busy, so I understand they've got to make ends meet. All-in-all if you want a taste of relaxed old Florida without going to the keys, this place is it! I will definitely be going back!
