Tranquil Little Getaway

When pulling up in the driveway you could see through the front door all the way to the beach. The house was cozy & the views were gorgeous! If you don't want to get sandy, you could go on the deck & see for miles. We will definitely be back!

Cute little place right on the beach. Very quite, very few people on the beach.

Needed peace and quiet and a place to walk my dogs. This was it.

Very nice and quiet

House is as described. It is one bedroom one bath with a sleeper sofa. We enjoyed our stay and loved the upper deck for sunsets when we weren't on the beach . Love seeing the dolphins 😍

An Old Florida haven for critters and people

"Somewhere in the Sun" is a miniature nature sanctuary, with songbirds and seabirds, rare white squirrels, and dolphins feeding off the beach every day. The house is set in a patch of native forest, and that plus the tranquility of Alligator Point make this a magical place, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The house is very comfortable for 1-3 people and fully equipped. Just bring your own beach toys and chairs. The owners' love for the house and its setting really shows. If you like quiet and Old Florida natural beauty, you won't be disappointed.
