In the past, when vacationing in
Florida, I've made the mistake of staying in some overcrowded, overpriced
tourist chunk of town where I couldn't get privacy if I paid a million dollars
for it. I did this because I thought that in order to be close to and enjoy
attractions such as Disney World, Busch Gardens or Universal Studios Orlando I
had to be in a centralized location, thus sacrificing both privacy and coin.
This year, I'm not making that same
mistake again. I found out about Indian Rocks Beach, a gorgeous, secluded
barrier island on Florida's west coast that keeps me far from the constant
hustle of tourist areas while still keeping me close to the attractions I love.
Best of all, I can stay at one of the Indian Rock Beach condos for rent that are all over the island for a fraction of the cost of a hotel room. It
doesn't get any better than that. I can even rent a vacation home - A HOME - for the money that I would be paying at a hotel in one of the theme
park resorts.
I would be getting so much more than
just convenience when staying at Indian Rocks Beach, though. I would be enjoying
myself and relaxing at one of the world's most beautiful and secluded beaches.
I can bask in the view of crystalline Gulf waters and white sands from the
balcony in my beachfront condo, without feeling like I'm constricted by crowds
or traffic. There are many shops, restaurants and clubs that make day as well
as night outings fun and interesting, and I can reap the benefits of true rest
and relaxation time no matter where I am in the island, whether I'm at my condo
rental, or sunbathing at the beach.
With my hectic school schedule and
everyday stresses of pursuing a college education, it's really important to me
that I use my break to really relax and have fun. Because I didn't know any
better before, I didn't do that very well. After doing some research on the
Internet and looking up vacation destinations in Florida, I came across Indian
Rocks Beach and have decided to give it a try this year, change things up a
bit. After all, staying in a gorgeous stretch of beach in the Sunshine State
and saving a few pennies sounds a lot better than stressing myself out in a
crowded building just to go on vacation. I do enough of that at school.
Hope you had fun there! It's a great choice on vacation spots.
