The rental is the perfect place to celebrate a honeymoon, special anniversary, or relaxing vacation with friends. The family dog is also welcome to join you! Inside, this Florida vacation rental is cheery with coral and teal accents, large windows, and tropical fish decor. Pull up a barstool at the breakfast nook for margaritas or begin preparations for a fresh seafood feast! The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and a dining table with seating for four. It leads to an expansive worn-wood patio providing unique furniture and a thatching roof overlooking the sea. Outside, the grounds are reminiscent of a private island, with warped palm trees swaying in the breeze, a large white sand beach, and Tiki huts to relax under. The Atlantic expands as far as the eye can see, only punctuated by a dock. The water in front of the home is shallow, with a channel that enables a boat up to 30 feet in length to reach the dock.

Very dirty and poorly maintained property with disgusting bedding. Very broken and dirty bedroom furniture, yellow stained pillows, others with blood, appliances not working, dirty laundry room with junk everywhere. Pictures were submitted to Vacasa.
Really enjoyed the home and the views. Some of the amenities were missing or being worked on during our stay and we were not notified prior to our arrival. The dock was non existent until the day before we left as they were rebuilding it (was looking forward to doing some fishing from it), no fish or bait table, outdoor ceiling fan was broken, front door handle was broken, tree service was doing tree trimming one full afternoon/evening on right in front of our deck on the beach. Owner of property was there and was great to visit with and full of great information. I messaged Vacasa a couple of days prior to our 1800 mile trip to make sure everything was in order and recieved a "yes it is and you can't get a refund" response. Still had a great time and will be back.
