Nice getaway

The property had everything we needed for our stay. It was close to the beach and the yard was a huge plus for the kids. I would definitely rent this place again. The only thing that I would advise is the beds are not the most comfortable because of the noise, other than that it was prefect.

Awesome beach house

Stayed the weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better house and environment. The house had all of the needed kitchen items and more, like the cute coffee bar. The kids loved the outside area with ping pong table and Bluetooth speakers. Golf cart was great for going back and forth to the beach and a night time ride. Nate and Lisa left a sweet note upon my check in and were easy to contact if we needed anything. Overall this was the best rental I’ve ever had! Will definitely be staying here again!

We were blown away from the moment we pulled up to the moment we walked through the door. Every inch had new and unexpected surprise that just made our stay better than we could have imagined. Between the locked gate and the security cameras, we felt just as safe as we would in our own home, which is important to our family. The beach was less than 5 minutes away on a golf cart, which they also have on site for your use. We expected to spend most of our trip visiting family at Camp Margaritaville just down the way, but no, they wanted to spend more time at our place. Pictures do not do this property justice. Not to mention the owners were as sweet as could be and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of.

Stayed the weekend with our kids and some friends for a quick trip before school started. We really enjoyed the house and it’s proximity to the beach and to the Margaritaville resort. The golf cart was perfect for our group as well.

Super Accommodating

This house was perfect for our family of four, and the owners were super accommodating. The outdoor space offers much more than the average home. As a bonus, the balcony allows you to enjoy the concerts happening at Margaritaville. We found everything we needed and more, and the entire property was immaculate. We only had time for a brief stay, but we hope to return for a longer visit in the future.

Our 2 BR/ 2BATH home provides a very intimate environment for couples or families seeking a quiet fun-filled beach getaway. You will have the entire property to yourselves with many amenities such as beautiful decks, patios, fire pit and many others. The views of the gulf from the upper deck is breathtaking. We are located on the highest point on the peninsula so high water isn't an issue. The property is fully gated for added security and privacy. Everything for a restful stay is provided.

What makes this property unique

The property is completely fenced and has security camera which cover some common areas without intruding upon our guests privacy. Our guests monitor cameras from within the cottage. With direct access to our drive-on beaches, the family can spend a fun-filled day building sandcastles or just basking in the sun. There are lots of board games, puzzles and cards to keep your family occupied. Ping-Pong table, basketball, darts and corn hole are just a few of our most popular amenities.
