Perfect way to focus on relaxation
Loved how scenic the views were, from both the beach and the river. Enjoyed many sunsets and sunrises, and even when it is hot out the breeze from the water helps a lot. Use bug spray liberally! So secluded that we often went a full day on the beach and in the pool/on the river without seeing anyone else - unreal! Water was clear and perfect temp for us, and we got to see all kinds of sealife (dolphins, sea turtles, fish of all kinds, nurse sharks, crabs, hammerhead shark, it was awesome! The house was great and worked perfectly for us, and 15 minutes to Vero for fun shops, groceries, restaurants, etc was perfect.

Breathtaking!
With water views from almost every window in the house, you can't help but relax and enjoy the views. The wrap around porches are airy and a lovely place for a cocktail, but the best view of all is the roof top deck. You can't beat that view anywhere! The comfortable lounges chairs were perfect for catching rays, while enjoying the sound of the ocean right next to you. The pool was refreshing and perfect for a quick dip. The listing was quite accurate - the house is bright, colorful and airy. Has a wonderful Florida feel to it. The entire house was immaculate, and the kitchen well appointed. The indoor grill was perfect, as it was long past dark when we got there, but were still able to grill burgers for a late dinner - which was a nice treat. The bathrooms were amazing - with showers to die for! Ron couldn't have been more attentive or helpful if he tried! We poked around down town Vero, did some shopping - the shops are wonderful! We had a great lunch at Casey's, a little outdoor burger spot. Although the weather could have been better, our accommodations were perfect. Thank you Ron for sharing your wonderful home with us!

Thanks for sharing your experience, we love our Ocean home, and it is apparent you do as well. Your opinion of the roof deck mirrors mine... 360 degree views of beach and water cannot be beat, and when you are done with a beach walk, it's a great place to relax and soak up the view. We also enjoy the "dune deck" (right on the sand) or sitting on the dock.
Glad you enjoyed the week, come back for an extended stay, and try the fishing, or walk a mile up the beach to watch surfing competitions at Sebastian Inlet :)

not a good match - but right on the beach
First the positives: good size house, right on the beach, heated pool.
Some improvement would be great: the deck is very splintered, the stove (downdraft vent) wasn't in great shape, the oven took 22 minutes to heat to 350, construction debris (screws on the ground) and equipment (wood, ladders, jacks) left in the yard.
there were signs and notes (9 of them) taped up everywhere: "don't touch", "if you use this, you will be charged," "owner's property - don't touch," "don't leave stuff in the refrigerator" etc., the pool guy and the landscaper constantly dropped by without notice (even after the owner promised to give notice and limit visits). of the 20 days we rented the house, 6 drop-ins so, if privacy is your thing, this may not be the right place. The phone rang so much I had to unplug it, and, finally, it was very disconcerting to have the owner text me about deliveries I received (it made me feel as though I was being watched).
If having the owner very involved in your stay is OK with you, the house is in a great location, will sleep 6 very easily, sits on a great beach, is clean and roomy.

Direct Oceanfront with a heated pool in an awesome location. With 6 wood decks, docks, balconies there is likely to be (1) with some weathered boards. Direct Oceanfront is much desired, and has routine investment/work. (This was especially great since a major hurricane was in this area only months before).
To maintain a clean/warm pool & grounds, pool and lawn maintenance must be done weekly, thus 1 visit from each (pool/lawn) would be 6 times over 3 weeks.
With an avg score of near perfect from all our guests, we will continue to exceed our visitors expectations at our Oceanfront home.
Thanks

Paradise (Doesn't Get Any Better)
Just want to say Thank you again for sharing your beach house with us
PARADISE! THE HOME IS HEAVEN ON EARTH!
Couldn't have asked for a more! the house was furnished with everything you need to make a vacation stay enjoyable. Spacious and accommodation was even better that the pictures on the website. The Wi-Fi was especially strong and the cable service had nice selections.
Magnificent and breathtaking views from the upper decks. We watched the Dolphins in swim in Sebastian Inlet , the boys(husband, son and grandson ) had a great time catching fish of the dock. Full service bait store was only 7 minutes away. Piazza place with Indian selections (rare combination) was around 10 minutes away and was a pleasant surprise
We all enjoyed the Ocean breezes, peaceful walks on the beaches , collecting shells and playing in the Ocean and relaxing in and by the pool after a long day at the beach! We felt like we beach was all ours.
So private! relaxation and tranquility ! the perfect vacation home!
Our three your old grandson had the time of his life! We also took him to Disney World on one of the days.
But watching our grandson play in the sand , fly kite , pick up shells play down near the water with his mom, dad and grand-dad was all we need for a very relaxing vacation ! We wished the vacation didn't have to end! Now our kids are back home in CA!
I would highly recommend this beach home ! Private with all the amenities, cozy and comfortable!
The museum, which was within walking distance, was a real treasure (pun only partially intended).
After 20 years of renting vacation homes, this one is at the top of list!

Thank you Frank, we take great pride in our 2nd home, and are selective with whom visits... which allows us to keep it in Prime condition... for those lucky few!!
First off this is an beautiful location right on Ambersand Beach. You overlook both the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Indian River on the west side, so you are sandwiched between the two bodies of water which is absolutely fantastic.
The only location drawback is it's close proximity to US Highway A1A which is only a stones throw off the back of the house. The speed limit there is 50mph and the traffic noise especially during the day can be quite appreciable. There was beach restoration going on along the Florida coast to repair hurricane damage and from 7am until 5pm every weekday there was a frequent traffic of heavy dump trucks going up and down the highway carrying sand.
I've been to this area many times in years past and usually this stretch of A1A is pretty quiet so unfortunately we just came at a busy time. The noise is mostly noticable when you are in the back part of the house with the doors open, so if you are not an early riser and you are a light sleeper, or if you are sensitive to traffic sounds it could be a bit of an issue.
The house itself is very well maintained which we know is not easy when you are this close to the ocean salt air. It is well furnished and the kitchen has all the basic equipment and appliances which are in good shape. The bedrooms, carpets and floors are clean and well maintained and the bathrooms are modern and nicely designed.
The swimming pool was clean, comfortable and well maintained.
When we arrived at the property it had not been cleaned or prepared for us after the last visitors had departed. We called the owner who immediately arranged for a cleaning crew to come right in on a Sunday evening. He also paid for us to go out to dinner while the crew worked to get things ready. So I have to hand it to Ron for getting things sorted quickly but it was not a good way to start a 2 week rental.
We had a couple friends visit for a few nights during our stay, and although there is just a single open common indoor space incorporating the dining room and living room, we did not feel cramped at all, especially with all the outdoor decks, porches and pool area.
We love the ocean and swam in it several times a day as well as taking many walks, and runs and workouts on the beach. It was also great just sitting looking out at it.
Overall we had a nice relaxing visit in a beautiful place. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular here!

Thanks, it was a challenge when the cleaners misunderstood the date they needed for preparing the home for you, very happy you had a great trip, and that we could get things handled quickly.
This property is exactly what my family was looking for. The house is in a private and quiet location on the beach, with a dock on the Indian River just steps away across the street. The house was clean and included beach chairs and other amenities to make our stay very relaxing. The views from the rooftop deck were absolutely stunning. Ron was very responsive and great to work with. Would love to rent this property again someday. Thanks, Ron!
Ron’s house was everything we asked for and more! The beach and canal view from the upper deck is breath taking. We enjoyed many sunrises and sunsets there together as a group. The marine life provided enjoyment throughout the week. We saw turtles, tarpon, sharks, seagulls rabbits and more. The house is amply stocked with cooking needs. We would love to return to this hidden gem. Thanks, Diana and family
Great location for a relaxed vacation. We were two couples just having a holiday week and this house was perfect for us. Great location, steps from the very private beach. He had wonderful afternoons sitting on the balconies watching the ocean or the sunsets. Just 15-20 min drive to restaurants, grocery store, etc. (Highly recommend wearing watershoes as there are rocks in the ocean). Definitely recommend this house

The property was beautiful as was the house. Couldn't have asked for more. Can't wait to return!
My husband and I came down with our daughter and two grandsons aged 17 and 13. The house was the perfect size for our group. The beach was wonderful but our favorite spot was the dock in the river. The combination of beach and river in one property is why we chose this and we were not disappointed. The wildlife was amazing and was constantly moving through. We fished and waded, caught stuff in our crab nets and released them all. We rented kayaks that we all enjoyed. The only thing was the pool was too chilly and we didn't know how to increase the temperature. Everything else was pure relaxation and enjoyment. Loved that it was away from it all. Very private. Can't wait to come back!!

Amazing location. Nice comfortable house. Steps to the beach. Restaurants are sparse and a bit of a drive but the pizza joint down the street has a great menu and delivers. Definitely a great choice for a quiet vacation and families.

Great vacation
This was the fourth vacation at the property and as usual on the Ocean side, the beach, the sand, the sun, the peace and quiet, the empty miles of beach, etc, etc, were just outstanding.
On the lagoon side we had the dolphins and the pelicans. What else could we ask for --- the incredible sunsets and sunrises every day.
We will be back..... Very soon!!!

Paradise on the Beach in Vero Beach!
We stayed here for a week in June 2009. We loved the location, as it was only an hour's drive for us. The location is spectacular- oceanfront on one side, intracoastal on the other. The house is well maintained and has everything you would need, even pool toys, citronella lanterns and bikes. The bedrooms are located on the intracoastal side and have an interconnecting balcony overlooking the intracoastal. The kitchen is efficient with a JennAir grill and burners, combo coffee/espresso machine and toaster oven. Wifi access and flatscreen TV with DVD player and movie library were appreciated. There are several outdoor spaces to enjoy - porches, downstairs area by the pool, and the rooftop deck for great sunset views. We were lucky to be able to see a space satellite launch! The location is remote enough to have your own space but shopping and restaurants are only a 10 minute drive over the causeway. We saw several sea turtles laying eggs on the beach at night and swam in the ocean near 2 manatees! It was a pleasure dealing with the owners, who provided easy access to the property and info on local attractions. We had a great week and look forward to spending another week here next Summer!
We just stayed at the house last week for spring break and we had a wonderful time! The house is beautiful and is stocked with everything that you might need. The location is a little away from the beaten path but that worked for us - with the pool and the beach just steps away we didn't feel the need to leave very often. The house was immaculate and very well maintained. The roof deck has incredible views - especially the sunsets and the beach deck was my favorite spot to catch the rays. We highly recommend this rental!
