Blissful Beach Retreat

Welcome to paradise by the beach! An opportunity like this doesn't come around often, as this home is located west of Gulf Drive and steps away from the Gulf of Mexico. The secluded location is away from the traffic noise and just steps to a private beach, so you will have your own sense of peace and quiet away from it all. The newly remodeled kitchen is absolutely adorable with bright accents and modern appliances, and a brand new Roman-style pool and spa await out back. The first floor features a separate bedroom and bath that would be ideal for elderly family members or teenagers who want a little separation from the adults upstairs. This beach shack is situated on an extra-large lot and has been owned by the same family for generations with much love. Relax on the front porch for morning coffee with Gulf breezes and then gather around the firepit in the evenings.

If I could give the outdoor area more stars I would!!! The pool, hot tub, and surprise half basketball court were absolutely the best part of the house with three teens and a 3 year old! They had a blast in the backyard. The pool furniture looked new. The outdoor furniture in the upstairs screened in porch was very comfortable. Having screened in porches on both levels was a nice feature for enjoying morning coffee. The couch in the living room was also very comfortable. The home was clean and tidy except for a minor ant problem in the kitchen that should be addressed before it becomes a problem. We had to throw away almost an entire box of cereal we had purchased the day before because of the ants. Thankfully that’s the only item they had any interest in. All appliances were clean, appeared semi-new, and operable. More utensils would be nice so we wouldn’t have to run the dishwasher as often. The proximity to the beach was sooooo nice with a 3 year old who didn’t mind the couple of minutes it took to walk from the house to the beach. We rented a golf cart but honestly could have done without it. It was nice to go around the island in the golf cart but not really needed to get to/from the beach. Would have been nice if there were beach chairs and a beach wagon. The larger grill outside needs a good cleaning. The mattress in the upstairs master was super comfy…slept great all week! I prefer a softer mattress and this mattress was perfect but my husband prefers a firm mattress and he didn’t have any complaints. We would definitely rent this house out if we are in the area again in the future!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jan 2024
This is a great house and worked well for our family of 5 with teenagers, but because of the rental management company’s inability to remedy issues in a timely fashion and poor communication overall I can only rate this house a 3. Pros - clean, comfortable home, great large outdoor area with heated pool, hot tub and sports/pickleball court (not pictured in images), garage contains some pool floats, chairs, wagon. 2 minute walk to the beach. Cons - There is no welcome book or instructions on how to use anything. We had surprise visitors several times during the week (Vacasa maintenance man came on Saturday night unannounced, pool company came out twice to clean, landscapers showed up with leaf blowers while we were enjoying the pool, cit inspector. Hot tub heat controls don’t really seem to work. It was warm at best most of the time. There are no pantry staples at all - not even salt/pepper/oil. The kitchen utensils, plates, cups, pots pans are worn and random - looks like someone cleaned out the things they didn’t want at their house. Vacasa provides a very limited amount of necessities - 2 garbage bags and not enough hand soap for the bathrooms. There are no tissues. For the amount of money we spent to rent this house, I would expect that there would be more basics included. The construction of townhomes right next door is still going on (roofing, deck building, not peaceful) Vacasa management company is horrible to work with - downstairs shower was broken all week.
