Beach Access: Due to shifting ocean currents, sand accumulation has recently covered the beach walkway stairs. The beach is still readily available to guests by bypassing this stair system.

Updates for 2024: Two new leather sofas in the great room, two new refrigerators in the kitchen, and an icemaker in the rec room kitchenette.

Updates for 2023: New chair and ottoman in the first floor media room. New rec room game chairs.

Pool: Pool heated by heat pump. Ambient air temperature of 60 degrees or higher is needed to heat the pool, meaning that if the temperature drops below 60 degrees the pump will not continue to heat. Max, pool temperature is 80 degrees.

Please note: The outdoor shower is winterized and not available for guest use from Thanksgiving-Easter each year.

Special Access Amenities: This home has a ramp, elevator that accesses all levels, and a king bedroom on the mid-level with bathroom that has a shower with small lip, fold-down seat, and grab bar. Please note that none of our homes are ADA compliant. Contact our office for additional details.
