About this property

Casa Bonita - Grand Spanish Style Villa, NEW Pool w 2 Spas amid Tropical Gardens

This stately 5,600 square foot house has all the amenities for a wonderful family gathering. The large living area includes 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths. Each master suite has a new comfy king size mattress and is equipped with large flat screen HD TV's. The other bedrooms feature new scrumptious queen and/or new soft firm extra long twin beds and are equipped with flat screen HD TV's. Day beds and trundle beds throughout accommodate various family sleeping arrangements.

For entertainment, the first floor has a fully equipped Sports Bar with pool table, foos ball table and Wi gaming station. Of course the Gulf waters offer plenty of fun just splashing in the waves, body surfing, or getting on with a myriad of other aquatic activities.

The two gulf side patios each feature plenty of lounging on the many sling style chaise lounges as well as plenty of dining seating. These patios surrounded by the lush tropical gardens and natural beach foliage in the sand make for the ideal space to relax to pleasant sounds of the surf. When it comes times to dine, a propane gas grill makes gulf side meal preparation as swift as a gulf breeze.

More traditional fare can always be prepared in one of the two fully equipped kitchens; the main kitchen on the second floor with large dining table and counter top seating, or the full kitchen attendant to the Sports Bar on the first level allowing for easy patio dining access.

The second floor deck also offers dining seating along with comfy cushioned conversational seating. And the views, especially the sunsets, are spectacular!

In the Spanish architectural style, all bedrooms have full length openings on to a small terrace allowing for nice lighting and warm gulf breezes.

Truly for owners, Heidi and Art, in this remarkable place the old Spanish axiom applies,
"Mi Casa, Su Casa."

Family vacation

Casa Bonita offers so much space, you can easily fit two or three families in this large house. The back yard facing the ocean offers the most beautiful views , especially of sunset. The backyard is also always hot and perfect for swimming. The downstairs is such a great hang out space with a bar and pool table and large tv. This is our second time staying here and definitely recommend it.

Perfect location and comfortable space

The location right next to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood was really pleasant. The house needs a little bit of minor repair work (broken tiles and flickering lights), but was overall nicely appointed and very comfortable.

Amazing House for Family Vacation

I can not say enough good things about Casa Bonita!! It was so perfect for our family of 9 (6 adults and 3 children). The location can not be beat, and the beach and pool areas were fabulous!! The house had every amenity we could want or need. The owner was very responsive throughout the booking process and helpful with all our questions. We were met at the house by Janie who gave us a tour and explained everything we would need to know about the property. There were so many extras - just an abundance of care was taken to provide us with the best experience. This vacation was seamless and we are already planning to visit again next year - great property, no complaints!!

Awesome Stay in Redington Beach

We stayed at Casa Bonita for 6 weeks and couldn't have been happier. The house is better than the pictures, the outside living area is incredible, and the location right on a great beach can't be beat. The owner (Art) and Case Bonita "team" (Janie and Chris) were responsive and extremely helpful. If you are looking for a place on the beach this is a great option in a great location.

Nice pool/beach but house needs work

The pool and beach are definitely the best part of this property. The rest looks much different than the pictures listed on the Vrbo site. I realized a hurricane devasted much of the area this past fall, but I specifically reached out to the owner beforehand and he assured me all was good. A little transparency and/or updated pictures or descriptions would have been welcomed so it wasn't such a surprise upon arrival. We left a list (as per the check-out instructions) of things that needed attention, burnt out bulbs, things that were broken, etc. and I was accused of being nit picking. We had a few issues with the hot tub as the jets were not working half the time (were fixed mid-week) and the temp never got above lukewarm. They kept saying it heats to 103, but no one came to see for themselves that it didn't. There are wires hanging around doorways, broken washing machine, broken windows, bathroom door had white tape on it to 'fix' it, broken toilet paper holder, multiple burnt out lights, broken cabinet door, whole room in the basement was taped off, dirty/stained couch/ottoman, cleaned up dirt/bugs by balcony in first bedroom upstairs, lots of dirt/dust in all corners of the house, etc. I tried to be respectful of the owner and address these issues with him as these were things we noticed and I felt like he got defensive. We truly believe the property has lots of potential and we enjoyed the outdoor space but definitely did not feel it was ready to be rented post-hurricane.

Best location for our family vacation so far!

I can't say enough about the location of this property. So convenient to step from the property onto the beach, especially with small children. Our family enjoyed our stay in this house with lots of room to spread out or gather on the patio or balcony for time together. As others have stated, the house may be dated to some extent and may need a little TLC in places, but nothing about the house would hinder us from returning to enjoy this beautiful property and beach.

Great Family Place

5 bedrooms with additional twin beds so everyone has a place to sleep. Couches that pulled out made even more sleeping space. Two full kitchens and TVs pretty much in every room. Upper deck is very big with great ocean and beach views. Direct access to beach.

Amazing outdoor spaces!

House exceeded our expectations. Location and outdoor spaces were incredible! House was well equipped and very clean. Be sure to reach out to Walter ahead of arrival day for check in appointment. We hadn’t gotten any information and had to do check in virtually. It was very hard to follow instructions and navigate a dark, unfamiliar house. Be aware spa hours are 5-11 PM.

Great Location, 2 BR do not have doors

Our 3-generation family stayed here for a week. The good: incredible location, the pool , backyard and beach are great. The house is large and the barroom area downstairs was a lot of fun. The bad: Two of the five bedrooms have a curtain and no door- for the downstairs bedroom this was ok but there was no privacy at all in the fifth BR upstairs. The house was very worn in places- example, our bathroom door was patched by duct tape and there were missing tiles in the floor. Also a bit heavy on the rules, but overall responsive hosts, a good stay and a good vacation.

Fantastic but needs TLC

The house was very spacious and the layout was good. The balcony was very large with plenty of room for everyone. It overlooks the pool and beautiful view of the beach. The large lower patio was covered and right by the pool. There were many pool and beach toys for the kids The beach was just steps away from the fenced backyard. It was like our private beach. My husband has mobility issues and the elevator was definitely a plus. It had plenty of beach towels and paper products. The game room was a lot of fun for the kids. It definitely needs updating, woodwork paint and some TLC but it was clean. Internet service is not very good. We would definitely go back there!

Florida 2021!

If you are looking for a getaway with a private pool, outside amenities and basically your own beach area....this is the place for you! To be able to walk out to the beach from the pool, sit on the private deck, grill out and relax in the beautiful salt water pool....it was amazing! The view is spectacular! Coming from the cold snowy state of WI, this was an awesome vacation! Great restaurants to walk to as well! We purchased groceries from their local Publix and Winn Dixie and basically made most of our meals. Clearwater was about a $22 UBER ride for a great pirate boat ride! We also went into John's Pass on the FREE Trolley (free during COVID safety measures) for shopping, dinner & drinks. The only downfall for us was that the grill needed attention, as we had to work on it before we could use it and the timing of check in and check out. Our flights did not accommodate their times, so we had to do a lot of shifting of what to do before we could check in and out. Lesson learned on scheduling our flights for next time!

Great location but house in disrepair

My review is similar to Megan O above. The beach is fantastic and the backyard pool/spa area is very nice. However, the house itself, while generously sized, is way overdue for a major remodel and even some basic maintenance work. Besides a few kitchen appliances, pretty much everything else appears decades old and is showing its age. The bathrooms, for instance, looked and functioned as though they were from 1988. [I know the owner may dispute this but we too noticed a roof leak during a downpour (water dripping thru ceiling of upstairs deck onto patio furniture) and the gutters are falling apart. I don't know that I would blow that off as "not a problem" if it were my house.] Regardless, in summary the property is well-located right on the beach and has a nice pool but the house itself has been neglected for years and is well overdue for repairs and updating. We loved the local area and the outdoor space but were disappointed the house wasn't as nice as we had hoped.

Wonderful stay at Casa Bonita!

We had a wonderful time at Casa Bonita. There were 10 of us, and we fit comfortably. There were plenty of beach towels, and bath towels. Linens were provided, plenty of pillows. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, glasses. There was a blender, toaster, and toaster oven. The bathrooms were very clean. We enjoyed the pool table and all the flat screen tvs around the house. The washer and dryer is a high efficiency front loader - just an fyi for detergent. There was so much room for all of us to spread out - truly a beautiful home. It is a little older (kitchen cabinets, closet doors, etc) but a great, clean place. We would definitely stay here again! Chris (their handyman) met us there, showed us around the place and was very helpful. Dawn, the house manager, was very helpful as well and is an amazing masseuse - we had massages at the house! They both were helpful in directing us to places and restaurants. Owners, Heidi and Art, were great to deal with. You cannot beat this location, it is absolutely perfect! You basically have your own private beach. The house sits along a strip of private homes, so there are very few people on the beach. Most days we were the only ones in the water! Everything you need is close by - restaurants, miniature golf, Publix, Winn Dixie, dollar store, etc. John's Pass is a few minutes down the road and a great "boardwalk" area of shops and restaurants. Clearwater is about 20 minutes away and we went there for lunch one day and ate at Frenchys on the beach - awesome! Went to Ft. DeSoto Park for Kayaking, and the beach to find sand dollars! We witnessed a sea turtle laying her eggs at night right next to our house on the beach! We had a great vacation at this house. The house really is in just the perfect spot - quiet location, but in the close proximity to everything! Thanks Art & Heidi!

Girls trip

We loved our stay at Casa Bonita. The house was very clean & comfortable, and the location was perfect! The house had everything to make our vacation great. The pool was nice with plenty of chairs, towels, and inflatables. The second floor deck with the ocean view and lights around the pool & spa in the evenings were a plus. Art was easily accessible and answered our questions quickly.
