Just a short stroll to the sugar-white sands of the Gulf, you’ll enjoy private beach access and a complimentary beach closet with everything needed for fun at the shore. A grand staircase separates the cozy living area from the dining space, so people can sit and chat while watching TV, or get fully immersed in the meal prep in the well-appointed kitchen. There’s ample banquette seating or stools at the breakfast bar overlooking the expansive kitchen. The oversized gas stove/oven is a chef’s delight, and the other stainless appliances were designed to accommodate a crowd.

It will be hard to tear yourself away from the private courtyard with its invigorating pool and calming sheetfall feature. But at the end of the day, that’s where everyone can gather for a cool beverage on the patio to enjoy tasty meals from the gas grill. A short walk away, there’s a community pool and hot tub, with plenty of loungers. But there is also much to enjoy along Scenic Highway 98. Guests are just minutes from fine dining restaurants and unique boutiques. Other amenities include golf, tennis, biking, boating, and water sports to suit every age.
