About this property
Luxury Oceanside Apt.Pool Private Beach. Special May and June 5+days promotion
Our home is a studio in the world renowned Johns Island community, 100 feet from our private beach on the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is stunning, and home to nesting turtles.
Come for 3 days or 6 weeks and discover the most beautiful barrier island on the Treasure Coast - or anywhere else! Enjoy the peace, privacy and tranquility that our private beach and pool offer. You'll feel as if you have escaped to your own beachside hideaway.
If you are more about the pool than the beach, you will love stepping out of your condo and walking about 25 steps the the private pool. Quite convenient for refilling the fruity drinks or heading back for suntan lotion or shades.
Come for the ocean, and stay for the food! Vero beach is a foodie's dream, Tides, rated one of the top restaurants in Florida, to classic Ocean Grill Steak House (on the ocean) and way cool Citrus where the lights are dimmed nightly in deference to the nesting turtles, to El Sid's (delicious Mexican) to everyone's favorite Riverside Cafe (cheap and very fun - best great-food, dive-bar on the water) and so much more. There is a different dining experience every night.
And one of the Island's best kept secrets - the staid Grind and Grape coffee shop turns into a happening music spot with great bands and dancing at night.
Did I mention Costa dell 'Este, Gloria Estafan's place, that serves an amazing brunch and beautiful food to beautiful people? Tides - A fine, romantic destination restaurant?
Or the White Orchid Spa. Ahhhhh.
Or catch a rocket launch one night - we can clearly see the rockets that launch from Cape Canaveral from our private decks. Tune in to the NASA app so you don't miss one!
Or even Earl's biker bar, a few miles up the street in Sebastian. They rock out on Sunday afternoons, and are a really friendly bunch.
Forget the busy towns on Florida's East coast, don't hassle with flights offshore, escape to Vero's barrier Island for all of the beauty and twice the fun right here.
Practical information - We have access to two private, ocean front decks for stunning sunsets, our private pool, biking and walking, and so much more. You can star watch, and when we get lucky, view rockets taking off from Cape Canaveral.
We love that we are oceanside with easy access to our private beach, pool and grounds that are for the exclusive use of the owners and guests in our building.
We are a ground floor condo with easy access to free parking, overlooking the exclusive Johns Island Beach Club.
Our flexible setup with king bed and a comfy sofa bed suits couples, families, or friends traveling together. We supply luxury European linens to ensure your comfort.
We provide the fastest possible internet connection, house phone, premier cable and large flat screen TV to ensure your technology requirements are met.
And the apartment has a galley kitchen with dishwasher, refrigerator and full size washer and dryer.
Johns Island is known around the world for its peace and security. It a lovely place to reconnect or recharge.

The hosts were attentive to our needs when we messaged, direct access to the beach was enjoyable. The place was clean, the pool was enjoyable. (Only wish the weather cooperated— no reflection on the hosts) only disadvantage was there was no hot tub or grilling area as the listing described, however it did not ruin our trip. Would return again!

Hi1 we were so sorry that the weather didn’t cooperate. We’re glad you had a bit of a chance to enjoy the great pool and private beach.
Yes, our HOA stopped allowing renters to use the grill and other amenities because people didn’t take care of them. We removed them as soon as you mentioned.
We hope you will come back!
Attractive furnishings, great bed, all around a very soothing place to enjoy.

Hi Rory - thanks so much! We really appreciate your kind words and are so glad your friends enjoyed their time at Johns Island. Please come back any time!
Very nice community and very friendly residents. While it is a condo complex it is very private. We had the beach to ourselves and same with the pool.
We enjoyed our stay very much!

Beautiful setting. Wonderful accommodations for 2 or 3 (sleeper sofa) people. Nice pool with the adjacent ocean. Very good communications with the owner.
Could not be a nicer stay. Hopefully we can do it again!

I worked with the homeowners to arrange a recent stay for my parents. Here’s what they had to say: Indian River House is a very special place. My wife and I had a second trip to Indian River House and our first time was great but the second was fantastic. The home is complete for your needs and so comfortable, but the major benefit is you are 16 steps from the ocean. The beach is incredible to the point you find yourself continually visiting the beach night and day. The heated pool is another benefit surrounded by all types of seating. The Library, Reading Room and Computer Room are more benefits. The location of River House is close to stores and many attractions like the Vero Art Museum. Trust us we are going back to Indian River.

Our stay was nothing short of amazing. The combination of comfortable accommodations, excellent dining, good amenities, and outstanding communication with the host made it a memorable getaway. I highly recommend this peaceful beach studio to anyone looking for a relaxing and indulgent escape in Vero Beach, FL.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The host was great and very accommodating. The unit is very old , and very dark . Smelled of dogs , all personal stuff left in shower and bathroom. We only stayed one night . They are lovely people but the unit is awful. We stayed in a moderately priced hotel that was bright and clean for less money. They refunded me 100 dollars. Property is very very old.

We were so sorry that this guest did not get what she was looking for. Although we provided descriptions and lots of pictures, and are clear that the apartment is North facing, I think she expected a large ocean balcony and an environment more like Costa del Este. She must have expected daily maid service as she left wet towels on the floor, trash with food in it and more.
She couldn’t be very familiar with VRBO and the usual things hosts leave for guests. We left condiments in the refridgerator (lower shelf) which we do when guests are only spending a few nights. We left shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in the shower for her, as we always do for guests, but they weren’t the hotel branded minis she might have expected.
It was clear from the beginning she never read the information sent to her. But our correspondence was pleasant until she sent a text saying she was leaving in the late afternoon on the second day. We had never had a problem so I reached out to VRBO who advised that she was not due any refund. We did give her a partial refund to show good will.
We went out of our way to make her happy at every turn, even gave a partial refund as a gesture of good will and she left this scathing review.
John’s Island isn’t for everyone. The emphasis is on gracious and special, not very modern. I am glad she was happy in a modern hotel.
This was a great little getaway. We enjoyed our stay very much. The property was very clean. The kitchen was pretty small which made it difficult to cook since there was no counter space but we managed. We would stay here again as a couple’s getaway.

Thanks Michele - we appreciate your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed your stay.
The kitchen is brand new in 2020, but it is small as in the pictures.
We are fortunate to have large fridge and dishwasher which many of the apts in Island House don't provide.
Hope you come back again! Best, Lisa
Cute place on the beach. Owners great to work with, very responsive and accommodating. Bring bug spray for no see ums though! Get up early and watch the sunrise from the great deck on the beach, you won’t regret it.
We planned our trip very late minute. Lisa had all of the information we could want sent out to us early regarding checking in and where to find all of the amenities for our stay. The place was clean and breezy and the beach was wonderful. Our hosts were very kind to let us borrow their personal fishing equipment and guide us on where to find the best bait in town.
We will definitely stay here again!

Thanks Rubina! Sorry you fishing but not catching- next time! Best, Lisa
Perfect for our needs! Mike and Lisa were responsive and welcoming. The unit was as described, so no surprises. No private outdoor space (which we knew) as nearly all other Island House units have, but lots of lovely places to sit on the deck Oceanside, around the pool and in the common spaces. Tucked in close to the Beach Club made the location convenient for us during the very quite summer season. Thank you.
We were met with an unfortunate situation and Lisa, the owner, could not have been more responsive. She provided a quick solution, and we were able to enjoy a great Birthday/ Holiday weekend. I would recommend this property to anyone!

About the host
Hosted by Michael Danforth
Mike and I love to travel, and we especially love Islands. We love our oceanfront home in Vero Beach with our own private beach, complete with nesting turtles!
We enjoy the local farmers market, restaurants, events at the Riverside Theatre and even last night music at the Grind and Grape! And of course, long walks on our beautiful beach, cocktails on the owners-only deck, and relaxing in our lovely courtyard pool which feels so private, especially in summer.
We also love bike rides around beautiful Johns Island, and local tennis and pickleball!
Why they chose this property
Our lovely oceanside apartment has everything you need for a romantic, or small family holiday. From the comfy kind sized bed with European linen sheets, to fastest wifi and smart, curved flatscreen TV.
We feel like we have our own private beach in the most beautiful area of Florida, Johns Island in Vero Beach. We love the peace and security Johns Island provides.
We love the easy access, first floor location near the north entrance which makes coming and going easy. The courtyard pool is steps from our door, the ocean and beach is less than 100 steps. You can heard the waves at night if you leave the windows open.
If you decide to eat in, we have stove top, George Forman grill and a dishwasher, also full size washer-drier. You can eat at the lovely dining table in the apartment, by the pool, on the tables on the deck, or grab a blanket for a beach picnic.
Reach out - we are happy to answer questions!!
There is a library of great choices in the common library, so grab a great book and relax!
