Gorgeous views! Beautiful Gulf Beach Home! Weekly and Monthly Specials!

Breathtaking views of the Gulf! 2 minute drive to the beach! Great fishing right out front. This nearly 1,700 sf oceanfront home has 2 bungalows that are connected by a breezeway. The front bungalow has a large living space, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and 2 bedrooms. The back bungalow has an office space with a single bed, a bedroom with a queen bed, a half bath, a laundry/shower room, and a mud room. The two homes are connected by a breezeway that makes a perfect home for a large family that either wants a private area in back or leave the doorway open for children. The exterior of the home has the best of both worlds with the gulf 60’ away in the front and a private serene backyard in the back. The dolphins are a daily site from the front porch! The back has a canal that brings in various herons and cranes for the bird lovers. In the evenings you can enjoy a fire by one of two fire pits and view the stars without any light pollution!

Please note that this home is located on Alligator Point. If this is your first time vacationing here, please do your research of the area and the Forgotten Coast. Alligator Point is in a secluded laid back area of Florida aka “Old Florida”.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Great View

View is great. Seen dolphins most days. Seen large fish jump completely out of the water two different times. Mister bird went down for a fish and then a shark grab the bird. First I seen that not watching shark week. Lol. House has lots of little extras that are useful. Owners were easy to contact. People in the neighborhood are extra friendly.

Exactly what we needed!

The home on Alligator Point was exactly what we needed this past week! The home was just as described! The retro beach home was extremely accommodating with all the necessities that my family & I wanted/needed. The views of the ocean, dolphins, birds and sunset from the front deck was like I was in a movie! Don’t let me forget the star gazing, shelling & fishing!! Just Wow! Andrea & Jason were amazing hosts and very responsive! I knew going in that the home would be located in “Old Florida aka the Forgotten coast”, but it was perfect for our family looking to just relax in the water & sun with gorgeous views, without the commercial hustle & bustle! We would LOVE to return and can not wait!

THEN ENTER A SPACIOUS OLD FLORIDA COTTAGE, EXCEPTIONLY CLEANED AND DECORATED, DOWN TO EVERY DETAILED ITEM NEEDED, TO INCLUDE A QUIET RELAXING TRIP. THE HOST WAS TOP NOTCH, AND VERY THOUGHTFUL TO DETAIL . THE STAY WAS ACCOMMODATING FROM HOST TO THE COTTAGE.

Quiet Getaway

The house was perfect for our family. Location was perfect for what we wanted. Quiet friendly neighborhood. We would go across the road to fish, take the kayaks 5 mins down the road to the state park and watch the Dolphins from the front porch, . The only issues we found with the property was the back “bungalow” did not stay cool enough for us. It helps if you shut both the doors to the breezeway. The Host was quick to respond to all of my questions. The only drawback to the location is the 35+ min drive to town for anything, but we knew this going in. Go prepared 😜

Nice getaway!

It’s a nice getaway from the fast pace and busy schedule of life. The beach wasn’t crowded even though it was prime spring break time and we were able to get some good sunbathing in. The water was not the clear blue of the gulf coast that we were expecting, but it was still good to play around in and there were plenty of dolphin sightings! Star gazing was amazing as there is little to no light pollution. The owners were very responsive and helpful and great to work with. Knowing that the closest Walmart was 45 minutes away, we opted to bring our food - that worked out well for us. It was a great place to stay if a laid back, relaxed beach vacation is what you’re looking for!

Beach house, Alligator Point

Andrea, the owner, was very helpful on all occasions, from booking to check out. The beachside house was very clean and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The house is centrally located for easy access to hiking trails, public beaches, bird watching and cycling. The beach house on Alligator Point is definitely a rental we would consider returning to.

Family vacation 23

We enjoyed our first visit to Aligator Point. It is the most peaceful relaxing place. The house was perfect size and decorated beautifully, very cheerful and exactly what you would want in a beach house. The apartment in the back was nice but the A/C did not work adequately back there, it never cooled down the whole week we were there. The bedrooms were nice size but we found bugs in the one we stayed in so probably need to have an exterminator come out to spray. We loved the view from the front porch, watching the pelicans diving after the fish and seeing the dolphins was fun. The only disappointment was that you cannot access the water in front of the house. We saw in the photos that it was rocky but thought there would at least be access to the water. Overall we enjoyed our vacation and the beach 1/4 mile down the road was nice and very private, we found many beautiful shells.

Peace and tranquility!

The house was just perfect!! If you’re looking for a non touristy quite place to regain your sanity and forget about everything else going on in your world, THEN THIS IS THE PLACE!! And the fact I was able to bring my ESA with me made it even better! Andrea was the perfect host and made sure I had everything I needed to enter the house smoothly and safely. The only for the 4 stars on the check in is because unfortunately the cleaning service was there when we arrived for our 3:00pm check and we did have to wait an hour and half for her to get done. But this is in NO WAY Andrea fault!!! Thank you a beautiful peaceful week! I would definitely recommend it and I would say our family would definitely be back but…. Our family has been blessed and we’re actually moving down there in our own home!
