About this property

Casa Bonita - Beach Villa and Pickleball Resort

This stately 5,600 square foot Spanish style Villa has all the amenities for a wonderful family gathering. The main floor large living area includes 4 bedrooms, a queen anteroom, and 3 full baths. Each master suite has a new comfy king size mattress and is equipped with large smart TV's. The other bedrooms feature new scrumptious queen and/or new soft firm extra long twin beds and are likewise equipped with smart TV's. Day beds and trundle beds throughout accommodate various family sleeping arrangements. More than enough to comfortably sleep 8.

The main kitchen and dining room leads to a pergola style veranda complete with stunning Gulf views.

The first floor has two bedrooms, a queen and king, with smart TV's and a full bath. This pool side area also has a full kitchen, comfortable couches and plenty of seating around the pool table for a relaxed dining experience. This fun, wonderful space can be separated for smaller groups focusing on Pickleball and the beach, yet it is not available to groups other than the main Villa guests along with their associates coterminously. Consult with management when the smaller venue is available.

At one time, the pool with volley ball net/court and the twin spa's nestled in lush tropical gardens was the main attraction. Most recently, that premier status has given way to the ever popular Pickleball court along side the beach. Simply pay the resort fee and Pickleball at the beach can be yours!

There remains the popular fire pit (who's gonna question fire pits in the tropics lol) and a large picnic table seating 8 for true gulfside dining.

Truly for owner, Art, in this remarkable place the old Spanish axiom applies, "Mi Casa, Su Casa." WELCOME

Excellent Family Vacation

The Casa Bonita is a beautiful getaway!!! The sunsets are breathtaking. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the pool and its direct access to the beach. Meal times around the large table and evening movie time were priceless. If you enjoy shelling, this is the place to be. Sitting in the hot tub, listening to the waves and the tropical breeze, melted all our cares away. We highly recommend this property and would love to return in the future.

Amazing family vacation

Perfect home for our family vacation. Absolutely incredible beach and pool experience and we were so comfortable all together in the house with 11 of us including kids! The only negative is this house now spoiled us on our beach experience! We will certainly be back. Thank you so much!

Wonderful family vacation

The location of this property is absolutely the best! There were some things that could use updated in the house, including replacing lightbulbs and general maintenance but overall it is a great place. We were disappointed that the pool pump was not working when we arrived and although they came out several time while we were there it never did work as it should. Other than those things, it was an amazing time and we thoroughly enjoyed the property.

Family vacation

Casa Bonita offers so much space, you can easily fit two or three families in this large house. The back yard facing the ocean offers the most beautiful views , especially of sunset. The backyard is also always hot and perfect for swimming. The downstairs is such a great hang out space with a bar and pool table and large tv. This is our second time staying here and definitely recommend it.

Perfect location and comfortable space

The location right next to the beach and in a quiet neighborhood was really pleasant. The house needs a little bit of minor repair work (broken tiles and flickering lights), but was overall nicely appointed and very comfortable.

Awesome Stay in Redington Beach

We stayed at Casa Bonita for 6 weeks and couldn't have been happier. The house is better than the pictures, the outside living area is incredible, and the location right on a great beach can't be beat. The owner (Art) and Case Bonita "team" (Janie and Chris) were responsive and extremely helpful. If you are looking for a place on the beach this is a great option in a great location.

Relaxing vacation on the beach

Casa Bonita is a wonderful house right on the beach. We spent hours sitting on the porch, listening to the waves and watching dolphins swimming just off shore. We were a party of 10 and quite comfortable. The pool and fooseball table provided entertainment for the kiddos. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation.

Best location for our family vacation so far!

I can't say enough about the location of this property. So convenient to step from the property onto the beach, especially with small children. Our family enjoyed our stay in this house with lots of room to spread out or gather on the patio or balcony for time together. As others have stated, the house may be dated to some extent and may need a little TLC in places, but nothing about the house would hinder us from returning to enjoy this beautiful property and beach.

Great Family Place

5 bedrooms with additional twin beds so everyone has a place to sleep. Couches that pulled out made even more sleeping space. Two full kitchens and TVs pretty much in every room. Upper deck is very big with great ocean and beach views. Direct access to beach.

Amazing House for Family Vacation

I can not say enough good things about Casa Bonita!! It was so perfect for our family of 9 (6 adults and 3 children). The location can not be beat, and the beach and pool areas were fabulous!! The house had every amenity we could want or need. The owner was very responsive throughout the booking process and helpful with all our questions. We were met at the house by Janie who gave us a tour and explained everything we would need to know about the property. There were so many extras - just an abundance of care was taken to provide us with the best experience. This vacation was seamless and we are already planning to visit again next year - great property, no complaints!!

Amazing outdoor spaces!

House exceeded our expectations. Location and outdoor spaces were incredible! House was well equipped and very clean. Be sure to reach out to Walter ahead of arrival day for check in appointment. We hadn’t gotten any information and had to do check in virtually. It was very hard to follow instructions and navigate a dark, unfamiliar house. Be aware spa hours are 5-11 PM.

Great Location, 2 BR do not have doors

Our 3-generation family stayed here for a week. The good: incredible location, the pool , backyard and beach are great. The house is large and the barroom area downstairs was a lot of fun. The bad: Two of the five bedrooms have a curtain and no door- for the downstairs bedroom this was ok but there was no privacy at all in the fifth BR upstairs. The house was very worn in places- example, our bathroom door was patched by duct tape and there were missing tiles in the floor. Also a bit heavy on the rules, but overall responsive hosts, a good stay and a good vacation.

Fantastic but needs TLC

The house was very spacious and the layout was good. The balcony was very large with plenty of room for everyone. It overlooks the pool and beautiful view of the beach. The large lower patio was covered and right by the pool. There were many pool and beach toys for the kids The beach was just steps away from the fenced backyard. It was like our private beach. My husband has mobility issues and the elevator was definitely a plus. It had plenty of beach towels and paper products. The game room was a lot of fun for the kids. It definitely needs updating, woodwork paint and some TLC but it was clean. Internet service is not very good. We would definitely go back there!

Florida 2021!

If you are looking for a getaway with a private pool, outside amenities and basically your own beach area....this is the place for you! To be able to walk out to the beach from the pool, sit on the private deck, grill out and relax in the beautiful salt water pool....it was amazing! The view is spectacular! Coming from the cold snowy state of WI, this was an awesome vacation! Great restaurants to walk to as well! We purchased groceries from their local Publix and Winn Dixie and basically made most of our meals. Clearwater was about a $22 UBER ride for a great pirate boat ride! We also went into John's Pass on the FREE Trolley (free during COVID safety measures) for shopping, dinner & drinks. The only downfall for us was that the grill needed attention, as we had to work on it before we could use it and the timing of check in and check out. Our flights did not accommodate their times, so we had to do a lot of shifting of what to do before we could check in and out. Lesson learned on scheduling our flights for next time!
