Summary:

Beautiful Beach Home Right Near the Water with Private Pool, AC, & Fast WiFi



The Space:

You're going to love spreading out in this lovely three-bedroom 1950s-style house facing the Gulf of Mexico and featuring a private patio and pool, perfect for family vacations and get-togethers with friends! Spread out in the bright and attractive living area featuring lots of comfortable furniture and attractive wall art and decor. You can watch your favorite movies and shows on the large, wall-mounted flatscreen TV whenever you want a break from all the beach fun. Take advantage of the full kitchen's stainless steel appliances and ample counter space to cook up delicious meals then serve your guests at the dining table or outside on the patio for an al-fresco meal. The kids will love splashing around in the private pool, and they'll have plenty of space to run around in the enclosed yard. The fully furnished pool deck offers plenty of seating and space to spread out including chaise lounges, two rocking chairs, four director's chairs, a bistro table, and two outdoor dining tables. There are also two toddler-sized Adirondack chairs, two in-pool umbrellas and a large out-of-pool double umbrella, and a two-person hammock with stand. Challenge someone to a game of Ping-Pong, pool, or even some board games in the recreation room, then head outside for a good read in the comfy hammock. When it's time to call it a night, you'll have three well-appointed bedrooms to enjoy.

Loved this place!

This home is in a perfect location with a PERFECT pool! The beds are comfy, the kitchen was well stocked. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 to sprawl out.

Peaceful pool

A unique old Florida house in a quiet neighborhood. Had a great pool in a wonderfully landscaped backyard. The house was very close to an uncrowded beach which after driving down the road to Cortez and Coquina beaches became so much more appreciated.

Just as advertised

Easy 5 minute walk to beach. Owners have done a nice job of having everything on hand from beach umbrella, beach towels, and a cart to carry all that. Pool is wonderful. Warm and clean. Very responsive owners.

Perfect!

This was such a cute place in a great location. Just a short walk to the beach and a great neighborhood. We got a lot of use out of the pool and the backyard. The game room was super neat! Everything was very clean and we had everything we needed. It looks just like the pictures, but even better. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

Amazing property fully equipped just steps away from a pristine white sand beach. Booking was easy. The management company responded quickly to our requests. The kitchen was fully equipped and the game room even more. The property was prepared and cleaned when we arrived including having beach towels and all listed beach equipment. This home has an inviting outdoor space with a nice pool and lots of patio furniture to lounge around. Also, the checkout process was easy as they take care of almost everything. If you are thinking of booking this property, you won’t go disappointed.
