Central Location: Heated pool, W/D on site, pets OK

A magical getaway for you and your special someone, The Love Shack is a one-of-a-kind apartment designed specifically for couples. Every detail, from the quaint pink kitchen to the heart and pink accents throughout, has been carefully chosen to set the mood for a romantic retreat.

Cozy up on the comfortable couch and watch a movie, or challenge your partner to a unique card game designed to bring couples closer together. The bedroom features a faux fireplace and warm lighting ambiance, creating the perfect space for a sweet experience.

Located in the heart of Central St. Pete, The Love Shack is just a short distance from all the attractions the city has to offer. And after a long day of exploring, you can come back and unwind in this charming and private space.

While the apartment itself is for your private use, the outdoor areas, including a pool, are shared among the other five units in the complex. However, with its quiet and residential street, you will feel like you have your own private oasis.

Your host, Kosta, is always available to assist and interact with you, but the level of interaction is entirely up to you. Whether it`s tending to her gardens or doing maintenance, she will be sure to say hello and make you feel welcome.

Renting a car for your stay is highly recommended, as The Love Shack is about 15 minutes from PIE airport and 25 minutes from TPA. Downtown St. Pete is just a 10 minute drive away, and the beautiful beaches are within a 15-20 minute drive. With easy access to Interstate 275, you can get anywhere you want to go quickly.

As apartment #2 of a small 6 unit building, The Love Shack offers a secure parking space for your convenience. If you have additional guests, there are also extra visitor spaces available, but please let Kosta know in advance.

Please note that there is a 4% refund fee for any cancellations. Book your stay at The Love Shack today and create unforgettable memories with your loved one!
Friendly Reminders Before Your Stay:

This is a commercial property with a commercially serviced pool. While the pool is cleaned twice weekly, weather can sometimes affect its condition between services.

We cannot issue refunds for temporary closures or weather-related impacts (such as storms, wind, or debris).

Health inspections occur about every six months, and occasionally a new code rule may affect pool availability for a short period.

Third-Party Bookings:
If you’re booking on behalf of someone else, please let us know in advance. We’ll need their full name, phone number, and a valid photo ID before approval.
While your own Airbnb account is verified, a third-party guest is not—so this extra step ensures safety and compliance for everyone. Many hosts do not allow third-party bookings, but we’re happy to accommodate them with proper verification.

Damages & Responsibility:
Please treat the home with care during your stay. The booking guest is responsible for any damages, late checkouts, or additional cleaning required.
This includes plumbing issues caused by flushing foreign objects, excessive toilet paper, or baby wipes.
If a plumber is needed to remove a clog or restore service, the cost of that visit will be billed to you as damage reimbursement.

Pets:
We love hosting furry friends! Please let us know before arrival so we can include the $300 pet fee, which covers the extra cleaning care they require.

The fee is per pet—if you’re bringing more than one, we’ll manually request the additional fee after your booking is confirmed.

If a pet arrives unannounced, the $300 fee will automatically apply after check-in.

Cancellations:
This reservation is non-refundable. We recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your plans in case something unexpected comes up.

Smoking:
The home is non-smoking indoors. Smoking is welcome outside only—please use designated areas and dispose of butts responsibly. A minimum $500 fee applies for indoor smoke remediation.

Extended Stays (29+ Days):
Stays over 29 days must be requested and approved in advance. We’ll require your photo ID, email address, and a signed lease agreement confirming your check-in and check-out dates.

No security deposit is required; however, there is a $365 private insurance cost that will be requested after booking.

Your reservation is not fully secure until the lease and ID are received.

About Us:
Kosta Coast Vacations operates under Mitchell Dean Realty and is authorized by the homeowners to sign leases on their behalf.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions about this process—there are no exceptions to these policies, and we’re always happy to help ensure a smooth stay.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us maintain a safe, clean, and enjoyable experience for all guests!
