About this property

Directly on the Beach

This is a great getaway for a couple looking for total relaxation and privacy. White sandy beaches softened by gently swaying sea oats lie just beyond the living room picture window. A large private pool is just a few steps from the sliding door with an expansive patio for sunbathing after a refreshing swim.

If you should want to hide from the sun, there is a covered patio with table and chairs for your morning coffee and paper--or for your picnic lunch or gourmet dinner. Be sure to allow enough time to relax and experience the glorious sunsets!

This modern, recently remodeled home has a convenient private entrance leading directly into the kitchen... no elevators to contend with while unloading luggage and groceries! The large, fully-equipped kitchen has a large with stools bar for dining, as well as a table and chairs. A bright, sunny bedroom boasts large twin closets and island-style furniture.

This home with can best be described as a duplex with a large rental apartment located on the north side of the ground level. The rest of the home is not rented and used a vacation home for the owner.

Great location, very clean, friendly owners

We had such a wonderful time. This property is clean, homey, private, quiet, in a beautiful location. We loved the back porch overlooking the Gulf and beautiful sunsets. The owners are very welcoming and friendly. This is exactly what we were looking for our beach vacation. It was so nice to float in the Gulf only steps away from the walk out patio. Directly on the beach - this is one of our favorite rentals ever.

Perfect place to unwind.

Great accommodations to relax and enjoy the beach and sunsets. Everything about this place is just perfect. Owners are very friendly and keep the place up to date. Very short walk to the beach and even shorter to the pool. Also the pool and deck are large and well maintained.

Perfect location!

My husband and I spent a week at this comfortable beach house on Madeira Beach. We loved sitting on the covered patio to read and stepping off the patio into the white sand for a great walk on the beach. We were within walking distance of several good restaurants and shopping areas. We hope to go back again someday!

This was an incredible vacation spot. We couldn’t have asked for more! The 10/10 review is spot on and well deserved. The owners were quick to answer any questions or concerns and made the vacation stress free. If you are wanting a beautiful vacation home right on the beach with access to a private pool then look no more. Definitely looking forward to another stay in the future!

We have stayed here several times and absolutely love it! We were shocked at how quickly and beautifully this apartment was repaired and decorated after sustaining a direct hit from Hurricane Helene. We got to meet and visit with the owners this time, and they are so nice! We will definitely try to stay here again!

Great location

Perfect place for one couple. Great location. We did not have to rent a car since restaurants and shops were within walking distance. We walked 1 mile to grocery store and then took Uber back. Pool and deck is immaculate. It is so great to sit outside and listen to the waves from the Gulf. We had a wonderful trip. We hope to visit again soon. Thank you so much!

Even better the second the second time around!

This was our second time staying at Jack and Betsy's beautiful rental. Very clean and well appointed. Has everything you could ever need! The weather was perfect which made the stay even better and harder to leave. This place was perfect for the 2 of us and our little dog. Close to shopping and restaurants. The beach and sand dunes were our backyard! Beautiful pool to lounge around. Met Jack and Betsy and their fur baby Ruby on this trip. Such wonderful folks. Looking forward to another stay. Thank you so very much. Josee & Michael
