The home is literally a 3 minute walk from the beach - which is great when you don't want to remember to pack everything before a beach excursion, as you can easily just walk back, no need to drive or coordinate everyone in your party to leave at the same time.

About the host

Hosted by Charlie Kabbash

Host profile image
Charlie and Rebecca love to travel but love their time on the beach in Paradise the most. Rebecca was born and raised in Virginia. Charlie is a New York/New Jersey guy. We currently live in Charlottesville, Virginia but spend most of our time on the beach. A quiet Southern belle and the outspoken Yankee have traveled much of the world and eaten lots of delicious food and still have many places yet to see. We are the proud owners of a Bluebird Luxury Coach and are proud to have visited all 50 states and 30 major league baseball parks! Charlie loves to cook and Rebecca loves to eat--they make the perfect couple! Rebecca is a product of the Richmond, Virginia school system and Charlie is a graduate of Seton Hall University.

Why they chose this property

After Charlie visited the area in the mid-1960s, his parents decided to purchase the property and began their retirement years in St. Pete Beach. The Julia House is named for Charlie's mother who was a major force in the purchase of the property. Charlie is convinced that living here added many years to both of his parents' lives. After the passing in 1989 of his father then his mother in 2000, Charlie purchased his brother's half of the property and began remodeling and renovating the property. Over the years, Charlie and Rebecca began spending more time in Paradise, sharing the property with children, grandchildren and other family and friends.

What makes this property unique

The Julia House is fully furnished with everything and anything you might need to make your stay comfortable. Access to the beach includes our own supply of beach chairs, noodles and floats. Guests also have access to a lush and tropically landscaped patio that includes an outdoor kitchen, covered Western Cedar gazebo and a Jasmine enclosed semi-private hot/cold outdoor shower to expand your outdoor living experiences. The most unique benefit to guests is the beautiful white sand and blue Gulf of Mexico with a spectacular sunset most every night. ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR!
