The Turtle House-Miles and Miles of Private Beach-Sunset Views

A secluded & private, nearly one-acre tropical paradise surrounds this beachfront coastal-style home. A spectacular property with its own private beach! Unsurpassed Gulf Views will take your breath away! As you enter, you gaze across the spacious and open floor plan, through the windows that open onto the wrap-around expansive deck, and out to the stunning views of the beautiful beach and sparkling Gulf. You notice how the sunlight pours in, fills the home with light, and lifts your spirits. Soaring high ceilings, tile floors in the kitchen area, and an incredible amount of cabinets, closets, and storage in this home. This home is spacious with 2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms. There is currently a queen sofa bed in the living room. Plus a great loft area for additional guest space You will never want to leave when you watch in awe the spectacular nightly performance, sunsets on the gulf! There are so many spaces that beckon you to enjoy time with family and friends as you blissfully watch the ospreys soar, the pelicans dive, and manatees and dolphins playing in the shimmering sea. The yard is true serenity for a nature enthusiast and beckons you to meander through the island-style lush & park-like grounds with many Oak and Palm trees. The unique shape of this home will give you breathtaking views of Southwest Florida sunsets. You will never miss a sunset as the never-ending panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico are available to you from inside the home, outside around your property, and on the beach. This home is tucked back from the road and the mature landscape offers added privacy. And just steps away through your private backyard, you step out to your private beach where you can relax and sink into the sand with a frosty beverage in your hand. This is a desirable and unique location walking or biking distance to a park with playground, beautiful trails through mangrove forests, and additional public fishing docks, pavilion & picnic areas.

Perfect Beach Getaway!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful beach vacation house, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with breathtaking ocean views and the soothing sound of waves crashing on the shore. Location: 🌊🌴 The house is perfectly situated right on the beach, offering easy access to the sand and surf. We loved waking up to the sunrise over the ocean and enjoying our morning coffee on the spacious deck. Amenities: 🏠✨ The house itself has a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and a cozy living area. The outdoor space is fantastic, with plenty of seating for lounging. Comfort: 🛏️🌟 The beds were incredibly comfortable. We appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the house, such as beach towels and chairs. The air conditioning kept us cool during the hot afternoons, and the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable. Activities: 🏖️ There was never a dull moment during our stay. We spent our days swimming, sunbathing, and fishing. In the evenings, we enjoyed watching the sunset from the deck. Overall Experience: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This beach vacation house was the perfect place to relax and unwind. If you’re looking for a peaceful beach getaway, this is the place for you!

Family vacation
The house was nice we had plenty of room for the 5 of us. We did learn that it’s best to do laundry in the evening. It get’s pretty warm in the house if you do it during the day, with that being said some more oscillating fans would be helpful. Downstairs was a bit musty smelling but we just opened up the windows and it was fine. The dart board could use an update. But all in all

Phenomenal location & home!
My family of 6 had the best time at this property. The beach is only steps away from the house which made it so easy & stress-free to take everyone down without having to load tons of drinks/snacks for the day. We could easily walk back to the house anytime someone wanted something! The house itself was incredible. We actually spent a ton of time on the porch, as it was shaded and breezy. No sign of bugs or any issues while we were there. Restaurants are all just a few minutes drive. The host was helpful with suggestions & questions. Would absolutely book one of Andrew’s properties again! Can’t say enough good about our trip. 💛

Unclean Property
Arrived at property an hour and a half after check in time. Check in was very easy. Walked into Turtle House to find rotting bananas on kitchen table, food in refrigerator, beds unmade, bathrooms dirty, jacket on couch, laundry hanging out of the dryer, etc. House had not been cleaned. Host was messaged, and he called back in a timely fashion. We canceled our reservation and requested a full refund. After two phone calls to VRBO over the next two days, they confirmed the full refund would be coming in 5-7 days. This was a disappointing, frustrating and very inconvenient experience.

A little of everything
This was fantastic location with tropical plants surrounding the house leading out to the vast waterfront. I've stayed at several VRBOs. The one thing I was a bit concerned with is the lack of incidental items for cooking - oils and spices. Other than that... it was super!

Quite secluded on the beach. Wonderful if you are looking for this. Short drive to stores. As a long term stay be prepared to stock your own necessities. Definitely furnished as a rental. Overall a great experience

Shark Tooth Heaven
Stayed in the Turtle House for a week. Everything we needed was there. The house was clean and had sufficient cookware and towels. The loft ceiling is a bit low, so you might want to use that area for children only. You’ll need a fan up there! The lower area under the house was great to use during thunderstorms. “Shark tooth hunting” was the reason for our visit and this area did not disappoint! Two thumbs up for The Turtle House.

What a view to wake up to!
We had a wonderful time at the Turtle House. The property is amazing…..the unique round house is surrounded lush greenery which then opens up to the Gulf of Mexico. The views from inside the house are breathtaking, and having cocktails on the deck or beach while watching the sunset every night was just spectacular. Andrew was great to work with and very accommodating (even when I called him by accident on Easter morning!). It was a trip we will never forget, and I hope to stay at this lovely home again.

Best beach house!
5++ stars Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Our family enjoyed our stay immensely. Best beach location ever and we look forward to coming back again soon! The house is perfectly situated on a private quiet beach (and only a few easy steps away from the front door). The view from the porch is amazing for watching the ocean and sunsets. The house was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. We enjoy cooking and the kitchen was well equipped with a large separate pantry/ laundry room. The bedrooms were spacious and super comfortable. There was a cute loft with 2 twin beds and small bean bag chairs - a fun spot for our kids to have their own space. Great for those who love the beach with beach chairs, umbrella, and beach towels provided and convenient outdoor shower to rinse off. The brand new outdoor gas grill was great for grilling fish. Besides lots of fun at the beach and swimming time, our kids enjoyed reading books in the hammock and playing downstairs and outside. The house is nestled in a quiet tree canopied area- a rare bit of old Florida paradise (although town is nearby if you need it- but we rarely left the peace and quiet of the house and beach). Owner was very nice and provided quick responses to questions. Self check in and out was very convenient. We look forward to returning soon and highly recommend to others.
