Gulf-Side Beach House - Tiki Bar · Direct Beach Access · No Roads to Cross
Welcome to your perfect Gulf Coast escape — a spacious, fully loaded 3-bedroom, 3-bath beach house just steps from the sugar sand of Madeira Beach. Walk straight out the back gate and you're on the beach. No roads to cross. No parking lots to navigate. Just pure, effortless beach access.
Inside, you'll find bright, open living spaces with coastal décor, marble floors, and everything you need to unpack, relax, and never leave. The fully equipped kitchen has stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space for cooking in. 3BR/3BA sleeps 6 — king + 2 queens, 2 indoor baths + private 3rd full bath on the side + freestanding outdoor rinse shower. The in-unit washer and dryer keeps extended stays easy.
Outside is where the magic happens. Unwind at the private tiki bar with drinks and lounge on the deck. The property is fully enclosed by a privacy fence — your own private sanctuary from the world.
Everything for the beach is already here and waiting for you: - Beach chairs, umbrellas & beach towels - Rolling beach wagon - Cooler - Kids' sand toys - Outdoor shower
Just pack your swimsuit and sunscreen — we've handled the rest.
The location: You're nestled on Gulf Boulevard in the heart of Madeira Beach — one of Florida's most beloved beach communities. Step off the property and you're a short stroll from world-famous John's Pass Village & Boardwalk, with waterfront dining, live music, boutique shops, fishing charters, dolphin tours, jet ski rentals, and sunset cruises. Caddy's, Cafe Corner, and Fishbusterz are all walkable. Everything you'd want from a Florida beach vacation is right outside your door.
Guest access: You have full, private access to the entire home — all three bedrooms, three baths, the full kitchen, the deck, and the tiki bar. Private parking for up to 3 vehicles directly in front of the property. Keypad self check-in means arrival on your schedule, no coordination needed.
A note about the location: The property sits on Gulf Blvd, Madeira Beach's main coastal road. While you may hear some passing traffic from outdoors, the solid block construction and privacy fence create a noticeably quiet, peaceful interior — guests consistently remark how tranquil it feels once you're inside. The trade-off is unbeatable: walk out the back gate and you're on the beach in under 60 seconds.

Excellent location. So close to the beach. The place was very clean. Love the tiki bar. Only request would be to have a few more bath towels so I wouldn’t have to do laundry while on vacation Would definitely recommend this place for a great time.

We were so close to the beach and the house had everything you could need for a day on the sand, chairs, parasols a cooler and a trolley to take everything in. We loved our time here

You’re welcome back anytime—we’d be happy to host you again!
We loved this stay. The house was very clean, so many nice extra touches from having equipment (wagon, umbrella, water toys) for a beach excursion but also coffee condiments, hand soap, soft toilet paper just things that you would find if you stayed with a relative. Any frequent traveler can tell you how much difference these little personal touches make for stays. We loved being so close to the trolley stop, beach and an outdoor space too. If we could give this retreat 10 stars we would.
Great location to everything. The beach was a moments walk and restaurants, bars and shops were walking distance also. We had everything we needed to have a great vacation. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and house was clean and nicely laid out. Thank you!

Yes the host was very responsive to any questions we had. The house was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We were surprised that the house was advertised as on beach but is not on beach. You can not even see the beach from anywhere on the property. We were looking forward to enjoying having coffee watching the ocean and beautiful sunsets and that was not possible from the house.
The Beach house is located steps away from the beach. The house is super clean, cozy and nicely decorated with a beautiful beach theme. Beds are super comfortable and kitchen has everything you need to cook and prepare a meal. It was a peaceful and relaxing time.

This property was Amazing! Super close to the beach, walking distance to St John’s Pass, clean and well stocked! And the best part for us toddler parents…it didn’t have a million breakable knick knacks for decor. We actually didn’t have to move anything out of fear he would break something! They also provided beach towel, chairs, umbrellas, etc! Anytime I had a question the owner was quick to respond! We will definitely stay here again if available in the future!
