Luxe 5 BR Villa en bord de mer avec piscine privée

Thanks Angie for your review of my private home. I will start by saying there is a front door to exit to pool that leads to pool on both sides of the home easily. We have never had problem with bed frames but my son living nearby could have quickly fixed it. The garage has a threshold at bottom of door to ensure a tight fit. The bathroom by Master has a double sink countertop about 8’ long and is ample size for 2 guests. Other bathrooms are typical guest bath size with 3-5’ vanities and all have bathroom cabinets for storage. This home is not brand-new built, and is priced accordingly. The home next door rents for double our rate. Most of our guests are return clients, and do love the property. Pool is cleaned twice per week and pool net will be replaced. With large groups, guests can overflow to ocean front deck for amazing views and often eat around ocean view pool, where grill is located. I have entertained 100 people on the beach & around pool area with ample space to set up food under porch for a wedding bonfire and guests said it was the favorite part of the 4 day wedding events. Sunnyside beach is quiet, uncrowded with a very deep white sand beach, different from Hwy 30 A beaches.

Pam, thank you so much for your kind words about this home. As a parent, I am overly concerned with safety, and in the past, parents did not watch 2 small children who accessed the pool by themselves (due to fact kids are so drawn to pools). Thus, hot tubs can burn children when easy to access and turn on, and paralysis can occur if kids or any adult jumps into pool head first at night. Then there is risk of children drowning when parents leave the slider door open to pool, as then the pool alarm does not go off. Anyone can also access gulf front pools from the beach by trespassing. For these reasons, I choose not to have a heated spa for guests, but main entire pool can be heated for small fee. And we don’t allow night swimming period, just as no Community like Watercolor, Watersound, Rosemary Beach etc allows any swimming in pools after sunset. Most of our guests don’t own private pools, thus it is our job to have safety measures in place. There are large door mats on the tile floor by doors, and we hope everyone dries off before going into home. We also don’t recommend night swimming in ocean, for same reasons as it is dark, and sharks swim very far out, near first sand barge. We want all our guests to have a very positive experience on their vacation and many guests do return year to year.

Jake, thank you so much for your kind review, we really hope you can return back soon for your next vacation to this beachfront oasis. We did just re-landscape the entire property with 22 beautiful new pots, with an expert botanist and updated the garage furniture, adding new leather sofas for our guest's enjoyment. We loved hosting your group! Karen, Owner

Charles, I couldn't agree more that this particular beach is pristine, mainly local residents go here and it has not been crowded this season at all. It is also famous for catching very large fish due to the deep mantel shelf which is beyond the Sand Bar, it is great to surf fish in front of the home. Thank you for your kind review and we hope you will visit us again soon with your family. I hope the newly planted flowers in all the pots around the ocean front pool were a beautiful addition.

Thanks David for your kind words, as we do strive be super responsive to our guests and their needs. My son lives nearby and handles our maintenance needs promptly on request. We hope you can return back very soon! Karen, owner

Thank you for your kind review. The one and only public walkover near home is at least 75 ft away and my guests go to right where it is an open beach for over 500 ft, unbuilt land, owned by St. Joe Paper company, about 6 acres total. You cannot get much more private than my home and the beach is never crowded in Sunnyside. It is a very deep beach, mainly all families who visit and locals. Perhaps you walked over to the left of home instead of heading to the West. We do own the beach all the way to the water, yet they don’t allow anyone to tape off the beach with signage. It also has best surf fishing to the West, as there is a very deep shelf in front of home and to the West. Great local fish can be caught.

Kristen, you were a delight to work with and we hope you can return back soon for a reunion with your group. My home does has the highest views on top floor about 60 ft above sea level, it is amazing to be able to cook and see the ocean every day without ever leaving the home.
