Overall our stay was fantastic. We had a few snafus at the beginning that the property owner was quick to take care of. The views from the back of the house are fantastic and sun filled and the ability to walk straight out to the gulf is perfect. The laundry is in the garage, which isn’t obvious from pictures but that isn’t a problem unless you have mobility concerns, or if the weather isn’t as great as it was for us. The house itself is one level but there are steps up to the front door and a couple out the back if that’s important to you. The layout would be perfect for two couples or even two families. The entire left side of the house could be its own studio apartment with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and living room. The bed in that space is a sleep number bed and very comfortable. The shades in that sunroom are also fully remote. Both bathrooms in the house have rain showers, which is a great idea but would be nice if you also had a regular shower head or hand held option. The right side bath has a deep soaking tub that the shower is in and is about hip height, so be aware if you have mobility concerns or small kids. The back bedroom on the right has a gulf/pool view and walks out to the sun porch which is lovely, but didn’t have any shades for privacy or to block the sun in the morning. All in all a great older beach bungalow that’s been lovingly maintained and updated. If in the area we would absolutely come back.

We were interested in selecting a ranch style entire home.We wanted to have direct beach access, a heated pool and hot tub.This did not disappoint!A little pricier than we had paid in the past, but newly updated, etc.Would definitely consider again!
