Redington Shores Apartment Complexes — Pros & Cons From Real Resident Reviews

4 communities reviewed · Updated Jul 2026

Redington Shores is a two-square-mile barrier-island town in Pinellas County where nearly all multi-family housing takes the form of mid-rise and high-rise Gulf-front condo towers built in the 1970s and 80s, many now operating as furnished seasonal or annual rentals rather than traditional apartment complexes. Renters here are choosing between beachfront condo towers with shared pools, clubhouses, and (in a few cases) age restrictions, rather than conventional garden-style apartment communities.

As of mid-2026, Zillow reports a median asking rent around $3,900 for Redington Shores, with beachfront 2-bedroom condos in older towers commonly running $3,000-$7,500+ a month depending on view, floor, and whether the unit is furnished for seasonal stays.

Florida renter essentials

Renters insurance is not optional here. Most Florida leases require it, and standard policies do NOT cover flood damage — that needs a separate flood policy, even in an apartment. Before signing, look up the building's flood zone on FEMA's flood map service and ask which evacuation zone it sits in.

Ask about the real monthly cost. The most common complaint in Florida apartment reviews isn't noise — it's fee stacking: valet trash, common-area electric, mandatory bulk internet, pest control, admin and tech fees. Get the full itemized monthly figure in writing before you apply.

Tour with the AC running and ask about hurricanes. Humidity control is the difference between a fine unit and a moldy one; ask how old the AC is. And ask directly how the building handled the last major storm — communities that performed well say so happily, and reviewers call out the ones that didn't.

About these pros & cons How we build these pages: we read publicly available resident reviews (Google, ApartmentRatings, Yelp, Reddit and similar) for each community and summarize the recurring themes in our own words. We don't copy review text, we don't display star ratings we didn't compute, and no complex has paid to appear or to have anything removed. Cons reflect what residents report — experiences vary. Rent ranges come from public listings and change often; always confirm current pricing, fees and policies with the property directly.
