A queen sleeper sofa provides additional sleeping space for families or guests.
The oversized screened-in lanai is a guest favorite, the perfect place for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or unwinding after a beach day while enjoying the private backyard breeze without the direct Florida sun.
The fully equipped kitchen makes dining in easy, whether you're preparing a quick breakfast before the beach or a relaxed dinner at home. The spacious bedroom offers a queen bed, ceiling fan, and its own TV for winding down at night. A washer and dryer are included, making weekly or extended stays effortless.

Mixed message
The house is absolutely beautiful - the porch is lovely and our dog loved the back yard. Glad we could bring him. The floors were filthy - the first day I walked barefoot and my feet were black!! An ironing board but no iron - It took several days to get the TV to work and we are not used to streaming....Bedroom TV never worked. Radio did not work. Bed not the most comfy and high to get out of. However, impressive that a duplex and we couldn't hear anything - it is certainly well supplied! BUT, we will not come back - much more expensive than where we used to stay on Longboat (damaged by the hurricanes)
