This island home is perfect for families and friends looking to enjoy sun-filled days by the shore and breezy nights under the stars. With two queen bedrooms, a fun bunk room, and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out and unwind. The ground level is built for beachgoers, with a finished patio and an enclosed outdoor shower to rinse off sandy toes after a day in the Gulf. Fire up the charcoal grill for an evening cookout, dine at the picnic table, and take advantage of the storage shed stocked with assorted beach equipment to make your days on the sand even more fun. Inside, the main level welcomes you with an open and airy floor plan designed for gathering. Vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows in the living room fill the space with natural light, while the Smart TV and queen sleeper sofa make it the perfect spot for movie nights. The well-equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar with seating for six, plus a dedicated coffee bar with both a Keurig and standard coffee maker. A cozy desk nook and comfortable chair provide a quiet spot to check emails or plan your day’s adventures. The adjacent dining area, with seating for eight, is ideal for enjoying meals together. This level also features two bedrooms—a queen room with deck access and a bunk room with both a twin and pyramid bunk—along with a full bath that includes a tub and shower combo and a convenient washer/dryer. Step outside to the partially covered deck to take in the Gulf breeze and enjoy a quiet moment in the shade. Upstairs, the private primary suite is a peaceful escape, featuring a queen bed, TV, and en suite bath with a tub and shower combo. Step through the sliding doors onto the covered deck, where you can sip your morning coffee or stargaze in the evening with the sound of waves in the background.

Beach toys are provided for extra fun, and the sand and surf are always within easy reach.
