This house was a dream! We loved the decor, comfortable beds, outdoor area, and the proximity to the beach! The heated pool was a bonus we didn’t know we needed, but with the cooler temps we were able to swim at any time of day. The sand on the beach here was clean and we were able to walk to the ocean without shoes but we were still able to find seashells. The best of both worlds! Our evenings were wrapped up with some of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen! We then got to sleep in very clean and comfortable beds, which my 90 year old grandmother described as ‘sleeping in a cloud.’ The check out process was easy (we were not required to strip beds or do excessive clean up). There were even some extra public parking spaces across the road for when a few local friends stopped by to say hello. We truly felt like we were home while staying here and I hope to be able to come back in the future! The only potential concerns to mention for others would be that there is no bathtub, just showers in the bathrooms and, with the nearby public parking, I would recommend setting up your beach spot early in the day because the beach does fill up (probably bc the sand is amazing and it is still way less crowded than Clearwater beach). I would highly recommend this property!

We had a fantastic stay at "A Place in the Sun." The location is superb - right on the beach with gorgeous views from the spacious deck. Lots of restaurants/bars and a small grocery market within walking distance. The home itself is roomy, comfortable, well stocked and truly lovely. The check-in process and additional communications with the rental company were seamless. Highly recommend!
It was our 30th anniversary and we both needed to take a break. We found this great property on the beach with a pool. We were skeptical until we walked thru the door. BLISS! The house was immaculate and well equipped, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. A great beach and stunning sunsets, nearby restaurants and shops made the experience complete. We left rejuvenated and ready for our next 30 years together. Many thanks!
