~WELCOME TO OUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME ~ Lighthouse #517

We are owners, not investors - and it shows in our reviews. Unit #517 provides floor to ceiling glass with panoramic views of the sandy white beaches and the blue green waters of the Gulf of Mexico as far as the eye can see! Whether you are looking for fun in the sun or a relaxing low key get away, our home away from home is your perfect vacation destination.

When you book with us, you get us! No answering services or message centers. You get my cell phone number and talk directly to the owners. We pride ourselves in being very responsive and ensuring we exceed your expectations.

Located in one of the newest complexes on the Gulf Coast, The Lighthouse offers amenities like none other in the area. Our guests enjoy two oversized zero entry pools with fountains perfect for little ones to play in, as well as hot tubs on either end of the Gulf facing property and two BBQ grilling areas. The Gulf fronting workout facility allows the most dedicated travelers to enjoy a breathtaking view while completing a workout or relaxing in the sauna.

Inside, our open floor plan offers beach views from the kitchen and living room, as well as the Master Suite! Our flexible floor plan allows additional guests to settle in our cozy bunk room with twin/twin professionally built-in bunk beds or snuggle up on the brand new queen size sofa bed with memory gel foam mattress to enjoy a late night movie or an early morning sunrise. There is an additional full bath located directly across the hall from the bunk room to accommodate larger families.

Our guests enjoy a 55 inch Smart HD TV in the den and a 37 inch in the Master Suite. The bunk room also has a 19 inch tv as well. Our keyless entry system is designed for easy access for all guests. We send you the door code prior to arrival. Simply save it in your phone or access it from the hospitality tab of your reservation. No more losing keys or juggling trips back up to the condo!

Balcony access from the Master Suite allows guests to enjoy an early morning sunrise or a breathtaking evening sunset from the comfort of our king sized bed. Off the Master Suite you will pass through a dressing area with double vanity sinks and a full walk in closet with a dresser before entering the master bath complete with a full size, jetted, Jacuzzi tub and walk in shower.

You will find everything you need to prepare a gourmet meal including small and large appliances, a crock pot, a knife block, dinnerware, cookware, utensils and most importantly a blender, regular coffee maker, Keurig K-Mini and a wine opener!

For your convenience we have a full size washer and dryer and iron/ironing board inside the condo and wireless internet is always complimentary. In addition to routine cleanings we have our condo professionally cleaned from top to bottom twice a year to ensure it's always in tip top shape!
