Are you looking for the perfect beach property in the middle of it all? This 4-bedroom, 4-bath, private-pool home is over 3,000 sq ft and has everything you need for an amazing family vacation!

Your private-heated pool will allow you to swim whenever you want or if you prefer the beach, you are only 2 blocks away. Enjoy live music, all you can eat pancakes, and a full bar within a 5-minute walk, or enjoy a quiet evening at home with a grill and full kitchen to make whatever you would like. There are 2 fresh fish markets within a mile, a large grocery store, and great restaurants are just a short walk. Whatever you need is within walking distance or take the trolley to visit the north or south end of the Island.

When walking into the house you are greeted with a lovely front entrance to store miscellaneous items and sandy shoes. The main level of the house features a large dining room table with seating for ten and the living room features a large smart TV. The kitchen is off the main area and is fully equipped with everything needed to cook your favorite home-cooked meals! It has a table that seats four for the kids' morning cereal or so convenient to grab a quick meal before heading to the beach.

The master suite has a large private balcony for your quiet time and morning coffee. The other king bedroom on the second floor has a smaller balcony to enjoy. The balcony off the living room with a ceiling fan adds to your outside enjoyment. Make sure you visit the screened-in top-floor balcony to see the spectacular sunsets over the Gulf or for an adult hideaway.

The garage area is great for the kids with a ping pong table, dart game, and more. With an additional refrigerator, it also allows easy access to your favorite cold beverages when enjoying the pool and grilling your favorite foods.

Loved the “Pink” house!

Overall, we feel it was a great bang for our buck. Minutes away from shopping, food, and beach. Very much appreciated they had beach accessories and 2 wagons to help carry items. Would stay again for sure.

Perfect family vacation stay

This property was perfect for our family vacation with six adults and two children. A very very easy walk to the beach, groceries and other stores, and stops for the free island trolley. The house was huge and well maintained with everything we needed and many places to spend time together. No toiletries or spices etc., but this was fine as it was communicated ahead of time. The rental company was very communicative and easy to work with. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Clean, open layout, easy flow.

We had a fantastic time, all our needs were met with the property. It was very clean, location was great, short walk to the beach, grocery store. Plenty of room for all of us, the bedrooms were great sizes and each having their own bathroom was a huge plus. We would definitely recommend this property!

Beautiful Beach Retreat

We loved the house with the four bedrooms and bathrooms. It accommodated the six of us easily. The location made it possible to walk to many places. Having a pool was an extra bonus so we could enjoy it and the beach. For a group of guests, this house will fulfill your needs.

Beautiful spacious rooms, close to the beach

Loved our stay & already looking forward to returning! The private pool was perfect for our family of 5. Home was cozy and had all amenities to make for a fabulous stay. We rented a golf cart to explore more of the island however, the beach was an easy walk for even our little guy. Lots to do and the clear Gulf water was absolutely breathtaking. Thank you to the owner for making the arrival & departure process so simple. Highly recommend!
