About this property
Casa Carmen - Beachside- 3 bedroom 2 bath home sleeps 9.
You must be 25 years of age or older to rent this home.
This home is pet-friendly, with a $200 non-refundable fee. Casa Carmen is located on the beachside in the Bluewater subdivision. The living room and kitchen's open concept allows everyone to be a part of the family fun even while cooking meals. The kitchen table is perfect for meals, puzzles, or a friendly game of cards. The primary bedroom has a queen bed, a twin bed, and an attached bathroom. Bedroom two has a queen bed and a single bed. The third bedroom has a full bed along with a single bed. There is a guest bathroom with a step-in shower. The deck is great for catching a sunrise while sipping your morning coffee. Downstairs, there is space for sitting and enjoying the afternoon with friends and family while cooking burgers on the grill. There is a concrete area with a basketball goal for children to enjoy a basketball game. There is also an additional parking area for a boat or trailer. Casa Carmen is a few rows from the beach, but you can still get a water view. The beach is a short walk, or a quick golf cart and vehicle ride away. Casa Carmen has no internet, so don’t forget to bring a hotspot if internet is a must. Come and enjoy a peaceful time at Casa Carmen and disconnect from the world.
