All of the homeowners have guest books available for their visitors to write in, and these are the comments that visitors have shared with them over the years. Please keep in mind that not all guests choose to write a review; this is why some homes may have more reviews than others (or there are large gaps between review dates). In addition, many guests return year-after-year and don't write a new review each time they visit.
03/06 to 04/21/2023 - My Stay "SunRise Villa 1b/1b". First off, this is my 2nd time around here. I stayed across the hall [SunSet Villa 2b/2b] last year for 6 months. Rox and Brian are the best people you'll ever get to know! I consider them to be family. Any issues are resolver right away. There are usually NEVER any issues though. They respect your privacy but welcome you downstairs to sit and chat about life and all its mysteries. They see people come and go over the years and they leave an impression that's everlasting. It's so nice to be so close to the beach in such a cozy, charming environment. I will definitely revisit again and again (if they''ll have me). Wonderful area, beautiful beach, safe, fun environment. what more could you ask for I say?! Thanks for everything R& B...see you soon! ~ Carey M, Operating Room RN.

2014 - 2016- "What can I say other than we fell in love with SunRise/SunSet Villas and Indian Rocks Beach. We have been staying with Rox & Brian now for the past two years, not only is the area quiet and beautiful but our rentals are just as beautiful as the area! Our first year we stayed in SunSet Villa (two bedroom) for 4 months, it was amazingly clean and fully stocked with every appliance, dish or glass you would ever need to make your gourmet meals in the very spacious kitchen (or grill on the deck). The master bedroom with a very comfortable king bed & full bath was completely stocked with more linens then we could possibly ever use! The guest bedroom (queen) was great for our visiting guests. It was great having a washer and dryer right in the unit along with free wifi and cable.
The second year we stayed in SunRise Villa (1 bedroom) for 6 months. Our landlords/hosts, Rox & Brian, are the best! They were always there for any of our needs; run out of coffee or sugar they have it! Very giving, loving, kind souls that would help you in any way they could. So if you want to live the dream, stay with Rox & Brian and enjoy the warm hospitality of these hosts, the beautiful beach (very short walk from the Gulf), and GREAT accommodations". ~Kathy & Dino, Fort Wayne, IN
July 2012 - "We recently returned from a fabulous week in Indian Rocks Beach. We stayed across the hall from the SunSet Villa in the SunRise Villa as Rox and Brian felt this would better suit us for our stay. This rental was evrything it claimed to be and more! We just moved in with our clothes. Everything from linens, towels and a beach kayak was provied for us, not to mention even spices in the cabinet!. The warm and family atmosphere with our hosts(Rox and Brian ) living right on the property was very welcoming. We have already started to plan our trip for next summer.... 2 weeks this time!" ~Melissa B., DelRay Beach, FL
May 2012 - "Awesome Experience. We had originally booked the Cozy Cottage as we were going to take our dog but ended up leaving him home. However, we stayed at Sunrise Cottage on the same property with same landlords it was AWESOME, LOVED IT AND ARE GOING BACK AGAIN NEXT YEAR. Had the opportunity to see the Cottage Cottager and it is absolutely beautiful. Everything about these properties is wonderful, expecially the landlords, the 3-5 minute walk to the beach. All I can say is that we had an awesome experience and felt so at home it was really hard to leave. The Sunrise Cottage, Sunset Cottage and Cozy Cottage are all wonderful places to stay and I would highly recommend them. - Frank & Kaye, Nova Scotia, Canada"

April 2009 - "Hello Brian & Rox - We had a wonderful time in IRB . The villa we stayed in was perfect . I don't think there is anything you need to do to improve on it.The water toys where enjoyed by the kids and that was wonderful. We will definitely be back. The villa is perfectly located to where we want to be and it is so comfortable and just like home."~ Thanks again- Mike, Shelly and family, Peoria Illinois"
Jan & Feb 2007-2014 - "Hi Brian and Rox-The new pics are great and they make us smile when we look at them. We had such a great vacation! The cottage is well maintained and the decor is beautiful,very fitting of the area! We were comfortable from the moment you showed us around and felt at home instantly. Being so close to the gulf was a plus, with the gulf breeze amazing! We would chose to stay at our home away from home again and again!~ Ron and Tina,Chincoteague Island Virginia" - March 2007, 2008, 2010 (Cozy Cottage) - 2009, 2011 (SunRise Villa)
