It's been almost a year since we rented this house and as I go back through our pictures, it makes me smile. What a wonderful house and experience. I was turning 40 and wanted to go somewhere sunny for my birthday. We selected this house, because of the extraordinary ocean views, the pool house for our guests AND the lovely pool for the kiddos. It was amazing. Fit our needs in every way. My kids were able to see the ocean for the first time in their lives, I got to wake up every morning to watch the waves and dolphins and we all were able to relax and have fun for a week. Perfect for families, plenty of space and wonderfully decorated/clean and tidy. Merry was amazing from start to finish, so helpful and friendly. We will definitely be back to enjoy this gem!

Absolutely Fantastic! We have stayed in some of the most beautiful beach homes but nothing like this. The private pool and spa is only 3 steps from the door. Wait until you see the master with soaring ceilings more than 20 feet. The Atlantic Beach is pristine compared to the Gulf in Ft Myers Beach. If privacy is your thing- look no further as we did not see a single person on the beach in a week...Great! Look forward to another stay with family next time. Merry and Pete were on their game the entire week.

Four Generations Getaway

I wanted to find an upscale vacation spot for my family that would accommodate small children, teenagers, young adults, middle aged and elderly travelers but with the caveat that it be accessible for an oxygen dependent guest. The beach house near Sebastian Inlet was perfect for our needs. It is a sprawling compound with the pool house, pool/hot tub, kitchen and main living area as well as walkways to a patio overlooking the beach all on one level with just a few steps to navigate for an oxygen dependent guest to be in the pool or relax steps from the ocean.

We banished the teenagers to the upper (third) level bedroom suite with it's own television where they could stay up late. The family with young children took the pool house for privacy and the convenience of the kitchen. The rest of us enjoyed the three second floor bedrooms, each having it's own unique decorating style. The master suite is fabulous with it's spacious closet, huge bathroom and reading area overlooking the ocean. The washer/dryer was handy for wet swimsuits, beach towels and the mound of clothing generated by two young children.

There is attention to detail throughout the home, such as an exquisite shell mirror in the powder room above a beautiful copper sink with dolphin shaped facet and handles. The granite countertops, elaborate ceiling fans, original island artwork, beautiful light fixtures and carved beds were appreciated by all. The game table, breakfast nook and dining room seating were all carefully chosen to be complimentary to one another in the island style and provided plenty of room for our crowd. At night we watched DVDs in the living room and enjoyed the sound system.

The boogie board for the beach and the noodles for the pool were convenient, as was the gas grill we used several times. The pool and deck chairs with tables and umbrellas were fully utilized. All our meals for the week were cooked in the kitchen with plenty of cookware, storage containers and utensils. The garage refrigerator/freezer stored additional food and drink to replenish the kitchen unit when needed.

During our stay we fished at the Sebastian Inlet Pier, rented a pontoon boat at the Sebastian Inlet Marina to access a spoil island in the Indian River, kayaked in the river, and toured local museums. Everyone enjoyed the pool and spa, even the one year old who was so comfortable in the water he fell asleep in his great grandmother's arms in the pool. Memories for a lifetime!
