A Sandy Hope, Family &Dog Friendly Getaway, Sleeps 12, Just 3Mins from the Beach

A Sandy Hope is a cute three-bedroom, two-bathroom home that sleeps 12. We are at 7 minutes' walk from Margaritaville Report.

This home is pet-friendly and has a fully fenced-in yard. We do require a $75 pet fee, two pets max.
The open concept living/kitchen space is perfect for relaxing, watching your favorite shows, and preparing meals in a kitchen, with all the amenities, including a crockpot. Outside is where you will want to spend all your time from watching our glorious sunrises on the deck having coffee, to sipping your favorite beverages, while enjoying breath-taking sunsets! Downstairs, the covered area is fully fenced, creating a safe environment for the littlest guests and your furry friends. You will find plenty of space for entertaining around the Tiki Bar area while grilling on the charcoal/ gas grill. When the sand and waves start calling out, you're a quick walk, golf cart, or vehicle ride away. After a fun day of playing in the surf and sand, be sure to rinse away everything but your memories in the outdoor shower. A stay at "A Sandy Hope" will leave you hoping for more sandy, fun-filled days.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.

The house is absolutely perfect, great design and decor inside, big tv for watching my astros in the living and master bedroom, my daughter loved the big bunk beds, the fenced in downstairs was perfect for my dog, location is great as well, just a few minutes walk from the beach, the host was great. She answered any question I had and helped in every way possible. This was our first time using vrbo and renting at the beach. We have stayed with other family before at other cabins but this experience was so much better, the bar has now been set so high we will probably only stay here from now on. We just dont know how it could get any better. Cant give this beach house rental enough praise. You will not be disappointed. I wish i took pictures from inside the house, it is exactly as shown in the listing, listen yall will not be disappointed with this place.
