Great Place
This Vero property is worth a repeat visit. The house was very clean. My grandson who just graduated from HS wanted to spend time with the family before heading off to college. The location is close to the beach, which the kids loved. We all enjoyed the stay. The owners are on standby with whatever you need. We had a little issue come up; I texted the owner he was there in less than 10 min. I can go on and on...

family mini vacay
The house was clean and well stocked with pretty much anything you would need - beach gear, games, linens, houseware items. The description of the beach access made it appear as if the private beach access was in close proximity to the home but in fact is across the roadway in a separate complex. It is a short walk but my daughter was injured prior to our trip so i was a little concerned with her having to navigate the traffic on the roadway to get across the street on a crutch. We were able to do it ok but it was unexpected. I would recommend insect repellant as there were sand fleas/mites on the beach. Overall we had an enjoyable stay and the hosts were attentive and accommodating

Great location and plenty of space in the home
Overall we were very satisfied with our stay. The house is in a great location (only a few min walk to the beach) and having the private beach access was great. Hardly anyone was around us all week. The house looks recently re-done and had plenty of space for everyone to spread out when needed. My only concerns and only reason why I didn't list as 5-stars. 1) The provided beach chairs, beach cart, etc was great to have however they weren't in the greatest condition. Chairs were rusted and the cart was use-able but almost rusted apart. 2) Biggest concern was the plumbing, specifically the downstairs. Something major was happening there as the downstairs shower flooded a few times and I also witnessed water "back flowing" into the shower itself when someone upstairs would run water or flush a toilet upstairs. Only way to make the bathroom downstairs not flood was to wait for everyone upstairs to shower and clean up before we could use the downstairs shower which was a little inconvenient when coming off the beach. The owners were very responsive when needed so i'm sure they'll get this fixed but wanted to mention on the review as it did impact our stay. They did come by one time to clean out the drain but that didn't seem to fix anything.

Beautiful home, great location!
We had such a great time staying here! The location could not be better—just a short 5 min walk to a very private beach. The deck with lush tropical plants all around was so relaxing. We loved every minute! Perfect for a large group and very kid friendly.

Want to Stay Again
There were 4 of us and we had a great time. We were impressed with the house itself as well as the location. The beds were comfortable, including the pillows which is important to me. There were very nice areas outside both upstairs and downstairs to hang out outside. The house was very clean and well laid out. The location was perfect! We also found the Riverside Theatre where we attended an awesome comedy club and they have free live music every weekend. We also enjoyed a great music concert at the Summer Crush Winery in Fort Pierce. I highly recommend both. We would love to stay here again when in the area. Thank you for the great hospitality!

Beautiful Easter Weekend Home for our Guests
My husband and I live in Vero Beach and we booked the property for family/guests (young adults) who were coming for the Easter weekend. The location is lovely: on a sand and shell-lined street across the street from the beach. There is a little putting green on the property that they enjoyed, as well. The property is two units with separate/private entrances (3 bedrooms up and one down), which I did not understand when I booked, but it worked for our group. The upstairs has an especially bright and happy feel, with large windows around the back wall of the kitchen and large wood deck off the kitchen. Because the unit is surrounded by mature trees, it feels like being perched in an aerie. Beautiful. While we did not have time to get to the beach, the large basket of rolled beach towels was very thoughtful! The homeowners are fastidious about cleanliness -- bathrooms and the entire property was spotless when our guests arrived. We look forward to booking again for our family and friends.

Weekend getaway
We were a family group , the bedrooms worked out great with the grandparents staying in the ground floor apartment. The kitchen was sunny and well stocked, there was plenty of space everywhere. The walk to the beach was down and short road and over A1A. There was a wagon on property that helped with taking chairs and coolers down to the beach. We also rented a pontoon boat in Sebastian, I recommend that for a great family activity. I would recommend this for a nice beach stay!

Basecamp
This was a great property for my large family to use as a “base camp” during an even larger family gathering in Vero Beach. The kitchen was very well appointed which was very helpful for food prep. The living space was clean and comfortable. We appreciated the abundance of bath & beach towels. Access to the beach was super easy. My only observation for improvement would be a sleeper-sofa in first floor space to allow for 1-2 more guests.

Great Location; Not Well Maintained or Accurately Described
My husband and I are local to the area but we booked this property because we had family coming to town and weren’t able to accommodate them ourselves. The rental was okay, but the property could use some attention from the owners. The location was perfect, and the check-in process was easy. There were a some things we were not satisfied with: 1. There wasn’t any dish soap or laundry detergent despite the property having a full kitchen and washing machine and dryer. There also wasn’t any extra toilet paper, and only a few trash bags which we ran out of. I ended up running home to get toilet paper, trash bags, laundry detergent, and dish soap; but for someone that is visiting from out of town and not able to do that, they would need to go to the store to buy those things. 2. The wood deck is rotting because it doesn’t appear to be treated lumber. It’s a beautiful area, but we didn’t really feel comfortable using the space for that reason. 3. There were some items that were not well taken care of. Examples include: rusted beach chairs, rusted bike chains on the bikes, rusted can opener in the kitchen (made it very difficult to use), rust on washing machine (where softener is added), and a golfball size hole in the flooring downstairs between the bedroom and living room. 4. Kitchen Issues: There isn’t a garbage disposal which was inconvenient. The dishwasher’s heated dry did not work, and it was not bolted into the wall so the weight of the rack being pulled out would cause it to lean forward. The wine cooler did not work…temperature in the 70s and 80s. 5. The recycling bin was full when we arrived and remained full our entire stay. I believe this was because whenever the property owner/manager came to wheel them to the street, it was not facing the correct direction and therefore was not picked up. Given the choice, we probably would not book this property again.

Beach vacation with friends
The house was very clean and check-in was super simple. We were disappointed to see that the beach was not “down at the end of the street” from the house, you had to cross a very busy A1A and that’s not easy with 4 small children. The house had a lot of space for the kids to run around but it was missing some basic things such as extra trash bags, cleaning supplies and even kitchen utensils. Also, the furniture in one of the rooms had two broken headboards which was ugly and didn’t represent what we saw in the listing photos. The house had plenty of extra beach towels, a wagon for the beach and even fishing polls. All in all, we had a good stay at the property and made great memories with our friends.

Great Beach, No Crowds
We loved this vacation house and area. For our family, beach access and a quiet beach where you can have your own space are super important, and this area delivered. The house was spacious, there is an apartment downstairs for privacy if you have two groups, but easy to mix if you want. We had an issue first night with AC, the owner had someone over that night, no other issues. Street was gravel/unpaved but that was not an issue for us, there are many similar streets in the area. The only concern the house was advertised as having a fenced yard, and the front was fenced, but the back was heavy vegetation and I did not feel we could see a secure enough fence to leave our dog loose in the yard. Sebastian and Vero Beach had all we needed for dining out. Quiet, beautiful area.

We were pleasantly surprised with this property. Layout of both the upstairs and downstairs were great! Clean and stocked with everything you'll need to prepare for family meals if you choose to eat in. Outdoor spaces were lovely too! Quiet area. Very tropical and a short walk to the beach. While you must cross A1A, it's really not a busy road. There are stairs down to the beach. Hosts were very communicative and helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay

Family of 7 with 2 pups....
Omg this house was perfect for our family get together. The location was perfect with a private beach just steps away. The owners have made our stay so much fun. They have thought of everything from a fire pit to putt putt golf and especially a large kitchen and a beautiful large outdoor deck where we all hung out everyday. We never ran out of beach towels or bath towels. This cute place kept everyone busy and we were never bored. Our 2 pups really enjoyed the dog friendly beach as well. We even did a hiking trail with our pups which was really nice just right down the road called Captain Forster Hammock Preserve. We enjoyed cooking and grilling every night of our stay. We will definitely come back again in the future. Thank you John & Patricia for opening your home to our family..
