Walk or ride bikes to several nearby restaurants, ice cream store or a winery!

Our stay was absolutely perfect and the arrangements accommodated our families needs perfectly. The host was responsive, friendly and made check-in super easy. The house provided sand toys and other beach accessories. We highly recommend this house. We plan on booking again next summer.

Excellent place to stay, very clean, great location and the private beach is wonderful. The host replies quickly with any questions. I look forward to staying here again.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
This home was great for our party of 11. Sleeping arrangements were perfect for 3 couples and our 5 adult children. The bottom level was perfect for the 3 boys and the two queens room worked great for the girls. This house had everything we needed. The best part was the private beach with chair service along with amazing views from every level.We also loved that you could walk to a handful of restaurants. (Crab trap, Kenny D’s, and Captain Dave’s were amazing)We would definitely stay here again. We have been going to different parts of Florida every year for 4 years now and this home has been the best yet!
