Welcome to Sandys Coral Retreat, your private waterfront pool home located in the popular rental community of Coral Shores! This vacation home has something for everyone!

Close proximity to Starbucks, Grocery Stores, Waterfront restaurants and more!

When pulling up to the property you will instantly notice the well-manicured exterior with plenty of parking space! Walking into the front door you will love the expansive open floor plan that truly is the heartbeat of a great vacation. This open space not only blends the kitchen and dining room together, but it also flows into a side by side living room and sitting area each with their own Smart TVs to watch all your favorite movies and shows.

The kitchen comes fully equipped with everything needed to make your favorite home-cooked meals! Just past the kitchen you will also be delighted to find a coffee bar with seating for 4 with an additional 2 in the kitchen. If you enjoy cooking on the grill the property has one available as well! The dining room offers a table that can sit up to 8 people with more space to eat under the covered patio.

Prefer the outdoors? You ll love the screened in pool deck where you can relax in the refreshing waters of the pool or kick back and end the day in the stand-alone Hot Tub. The private pool can be heated for an additional fee during the colder months of the year. Leading out onto the deck is a large turf area as well as an extended dock perfect for your boat along with electricity and water. If the young ones cant get enough of the beach enjoy the sand playground that was made in the back yard. The perfect thing for the young ones to do while you are catching a tan or the view. Enjoy fishing off the dock in the canal and if you are lucky, you might even see a manatee or a dolphin!

Trying to figure out sleeping arrangements? The primary bedroom offers a King-sized bed, smart TV, ensuite bathroom, and walk-in closet. Across the hall, you will find one of the secondary bedrooms which offers a bunk bed with a Full-sized bed over a Queen-sized bed. On the opposite side of the home you will find the final bedroom equipped with a Queen-sized bed. The secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom in the hallway on the right side of the home. Additional sleeping space available in the form of a pull out couch in the living room.

Since no Florida getaway would be complete without direct water access - the dock is the perfect place to tie up your boat, fish, or soak in the pleasure of the sunsets.

Or grab a few chairs and your favorite cocktail and enjoy the beautiful Florida weather. Whatever your water calling, you will find it here.

Perfect rental for our family! Convenient location with plenty of nearby amenities and easy access for day trips. We even saw manatees in the canal! The beds and furniture were super comfortable, and the place was spotless! The pool, hot tub, and all other appliances were in excellent condition and well maintained and/or new. I have very high standards for cleanliness and this place sparkles! Can’t wait to come back!

Great location for boating and hanging with the family. Nice pool and jacuzzi. Saw manatees everyday in the canal. Canal is deep even in low tides. The house was well equipped with all the necessities. Even a blender for Pina Coladas! Great communication with management company! We enjoyed the home with our adult kids!

We really enjoyed our stay. The only issue we had was VRBO sent a email saying we could have an early check in but when we arrived the property management team was not aware and the cleaner was still cleaning. They did get us in around 2 instead of 4 so that was appreciated
