About this property

Bear Necessities | 366 ft. from the beach | Private Pool, Pet Friendly

New for 2024: The name changed to Bear Necessities (formerly Casa Mi Lo). New owners added a pool and fenced patio, 2 Mid-Level Bedrooms converted to Master Bedrooms. Updated furnishing and décor, new carpeting.

This iconic oceanside beach house mixes the best of old and new - the traditional pine-paneled décor is updated with new furnishings, fixtures, and two new master bedrooms. The pool and patio add options to cool off in the water or soak up the sun. Children and dog-friendly, the shaded deck offers a play area and fencing for both. Enjoy an ocean view and breeze from the tri-level, wrap around decking. Inside, gather in the large living room or enjoy games and puzzles in the top level loft. Create beach feasts in the fully-stocked kitchen with its large, buffet-ready island. Dine in the expansive dining room or outdoors on the screened porch overlooking the ocean. Retire for the evening in spaciously sized bedrooms and wake up well-rested for another day on the beach! From sunup to sundown, Bear Necessities has everything you need for a great Sandbridge vacation.

First of all I do not ever give negative reviews because sometimes things just happen, but this was too much. The pictures are deceiving and there was a good reason they took photo's with the window treatments pushed back and only took front shots.

Spring Break
Nice time at Casa Milo! We had a small group and the place had plenty of room for everyone, which is a plus. The house had everything you would need to not have to overpack (housewares, games, kitchen items). Right across from the beach, awesome deck views- the town is a bit remote and off the beaten path from VB (about 25-30 minutes drive to downtown VB) which gave it more of a secluded feel. Close enough to Busch gardens (took us a little over an hour each way). Overall- we had a great time and we would definitely stay again, if we were to revisit!

Ok stay
I was pleased when I arrived because the house was visually appealing and there was more than enough room for my friends and I. I also liked the distance to the beach. I was really disappointed when I went to use the oven and it did not work. I couldn’t prepare a meal that needed the oven on my second day. Then on the second day a friend took a shower and wasn't able to turn off the water. After the maintenance man came and couldn’t turn it off they had to call the plumber. We didn’t have hot water for a while. Which was very inconvenient. There was also a piece that was broken on the floor part of the door frame that needed fix. These things created inconveniences for me and would love to speak to an owner to discuss these issues.

Nice house, lots of room
We attended a family wedding, and this house fit our needs well. A couple of issues are the heating /cooling is uneven in several rooms. The house also needs a good deep cleaning and some maintenance. But the space is laid out well and worked for our crowd. Kitchen is very user friendly.
