The Space:
Settle into a sun-drenched Florida escape where the pace slows the moment you arrive. Mornings begin at the kitchen island with coffee in hand, the sound of water drifting in from the lanai. Afternoons stretch out by the pool, and evenings draw everyone together - for shared meals, easy conversation, or a quiet soak under the stars.
Living space
The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area forms the beating heart of the home - a generous, connected space that makes gathering feel effortless. The layout is entirely single-level with no stairs, keeping movement easy for guests of all ages. Ceiling fans and air conditioning keep things cool year-round, while the TV rounds out the living area for laid-back movie nights.
Sleeping arrangements
Four bedrooms sleep up to 8 guests across 5 beds, each room arranged with both comfort and privacy in mind. The primary suite features a king bed and a private ensuite bathroom - a calm retreat at the end of the day. Two additional bedrooms each offer a queen bed, and the fourth bedroom is fitted with twin-over-twin bunk beds, ideal for younger guests or a flexible sleeping setup. With three full bathrooms, mornings stay unhurried even with a full house.
Kitchen & dining
The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed for home-cooked meals from breakfast through dinner. You'll find a refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, and all the cooking basics - pots, pans, oil, salt and pepper - alongside full dishes and silverware. The large island offers extra seating so conversation flows easily between the kitchen and living area, and the dining table brings everyone together for sit-down meals.
Outdoor living
The screened lanai is where the home truly comes alive. Step outside to the private in-ground pool, with a covered patio furnished for outdoor dining and relaxed lounging. The screened enclosure adds a layer of comfort and privacy, keeping the space enjoyable throughout the Florida day without interruption.
Work & connectivity
A dedicated workspace and reliable Wi-Fi make this home a strong choice for remote workers, extended stays, or guests in the middle of a relocation. Long-term stays of 28 days or more are welcome, and the professionally managed setup ensures a seamless experience from check-in to checkout.
