Getting Around
A car is nice to have but not required. If flying in, a golf cart could be fun to rent instead of a car. Could manage without a car as Publix is within walking distance.

Sunsets on the beach
Drink in hand and watching the sunset is the one thing you don’t wanna miss! Better watch close it’s gone in 60seconds!

Just enjoy the beach
Many people come down and get trapped at the pier park tourist attractions. The best part of where our house is located is that you can avoid all of that and save money. We remodeled the house for 10months and managed to avoid Pier Park tourist areas every weekend. Simply enjoying the beach and the house amenities is one way to save money. Visit with the locals at the beach has been one of our favorite free things to do!

What about after a long day at the beach, what is there to?
Our beach house is designed so that after a long day at the beach. Kids can bath outside in the outdoor shower and parents can grab a drink and cook. The backyard is designed with just rock so clean kids can stay as clean as kids can. The backyard space has checkers and corn hole all while being lit up with string lights for an enjoyable night away from the sand while enjoying the sound of the ocean!
