Close to the Ocean. Senior and Pet Friendly Great Rates!


Relax and enjoy your vacation time in well equipped, close to the beach, three bedroom, one and a half bath cottage in a private cul de sac on Jacana. Recently remodeled with, updates like new flooring, kitchen cabinets and countertops, along with a new full bath, will allow you to enjoy morning coffee or afternoon cocktails on the screened in front porch as you enjoy the breezy setting for this cozy home. Supplied with all the conveniences including staple items like paper towels, trash bags and TP for a family, the home can handle everything from a barbecued steak, a blender of Pina Coladas, a bag of microwave popcorn or a batch of homemade cookies. With one level living, and the open floor plan, the home is great for seniors and families with youngsters.

In addition, guests get linen and towel use, or simply bring your own and use the full-size washer and dryer when needed. Amuse the young ones with the new 42' flat screen or the other cable TV. HDMI connections allow streaming of Netflix or other computer video files right on the TV. Select a DVD/blue ray for quiet times or family viewing. With just a 5-minute walk to the beach, enjoy the use of either of the 2 bikes, beach chairs, umbrellas, fishing poles, skim boards, snorkeling flippers, sand toys and other beach equipment there for use. The open-air outdoor shower is a treat for sandy beach goers, and the golf cart offers convenient parking at the beach with a lot less clean up when sand makes its way to the family vehicle. Others may simply enjoy either of the two village pools, and not to mention the Tupelo Bay golf center just across the street. If you're sharing your vacation time with others, the home has accommodations for two vehicles for off street parking, so more than one couple can enjoy this great vacation site.

Great location and it is a well kept property. I really enjoyed the ability to sit on the screened in porch. The ability to smoke tobacco responsibly on the screened in porch as well as bring our dog, clinched our personal choice. It is also Senior-Friendly. Golf cart available for use was awesome.

Serenity by the Sea

Wonderful! Just what we were looking for . The community is so peaceful. The atmosphere is tranquil and beautiful. The homeowners are easy to get in touch with though we had no need to. The house had all that we needed and then some. Quaint and homey. The golf cart is a great touch. Easy access to the beach with or without golf cart. Access to beach chairs, etc is easy and also a great touch. We had such a relaxing time. The price of our stay was a blessing. We recommend!
