Gulf-View Retreat with Expansive Sunset Deck

Escape to Palms, a bright second-story two-bedroom apartment at Indian Rocks Beach Cottage Inn, featuring wraparound windows and an expansive private Gulf-view deck just steps from the beach.

Part of one of Indian Rocks Beach’s earliest cottage properties, Palms combines Old Florida character with a thoughtfully updated interior and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. It accommodates up to six guests and is ideal for couples, families or friends.

The apartment has two private bedrooms, each furnished with a queen bed. A sofa bed in the open living and dining area provides sleeping space for two additional guests. One full bathroom serves the apartment.

Wraparound windows fill the rooms with natural light and offer views across the Gulf, gardens and surrounding palms. The updated full kitchen includes an induction range, convection oven, appliances, cookware, dishes, utensils, a coffee maker and everyday essentials.

The centerpiece of Palms is its private 24-by-10-foot Gulf-view deck. Reserved exclusively for Palms guests, it includes an outdoor dining table and casual sectional, creating generous space for morning coffee, open-air meals and sunset gatherings.

Guests have private use of the entire apartment and deck. The tropical courtyard pool, hot tub, chickee hut, gardens and laundry facilities are shared with guests staying in the Inn’s other cottages. Beach chairs, towels, umbrellas and coolers are provided.

The Gulf beach is reached by a nearby public access path without crossing Gulf Boulevard. Restaurants, cafés and live music are within walking distance.

Palms includes high-speed Wi-Fi, television and one tandem parking space for up to two vehicles parked end-to-end. Approved pets are welcome with advance disclosure and payment of the $100 pet fee.

Please note:

• Palms is located entirely upstairs and is accessible only by an exterior staircase.
• Maximum occupancy is six guests.
• The fifth and sixth guests sleep on the sofa bed.
• The shared amenities are used by guests staying in the other cottages.
• Palms has a Gulf view but is not directly beachfront.

For larger groups, adjacent one-bedroom and three-bedroom cottage accommodations may also be booked, subject to availability.
