The Laughing Lizard Bed & Breakfast is a tin-roofed, three-story, Key Westy island home built in 2005. Located in the quaint island community of Indian Rocks Beach just south of Clearwater Beach in the Tampa Bay area on Florida’s west coast, this casual, laid-back B & B is a contemporary throwback to the cottage-style architecture that speaks to Indian Rocks Beach's roots. Creatively colorful and eclectic guestrooms — all with private baths — make beachlife as exciting indoors as it is outdoors.
Fifty-six windows offer an eyewitness view of beachlife as it happens on mainstreet Gulf Boulevard. Coffee in hand, stroll 400' to the beach for a morning walk. Ride the local beach trolley to the nature park, historical museum, many wonderful restaurants and other beach destinations up and down the coast from Clearwater Beach south to St. Pete Beach. Then sip a taste of afternoon wine and experience the sunset…maybe even witness the "green flash"…as the sun finally melts into the Gulf of Mexico at the end of a perfect day in the barrier island beach community termed by a USA Today article as "the best beach town of all."
The Island Iguana, available, weekly, monthly or seasonally, is an efficiency apartment with a partial kitchen and its own private entrance. Sit on the front porch and watching life unfold on the boulevard, reading a good book, or visiting. Then, walk across the street only steps to the beach.
