Where You'll Sleep:
→ Bedroom 1: King bed, private ensuite and direct lanai access for easy morning waterfront views
→ Bedroom 2: Queen bed with Roku TV for private streaming and restful nights
→ Bedroom 3: Queen bed with Roku TV for personal viewing and comfortable sleep
→ Living room: Sofa bed plus an air mattress to expand sleeping space for extra guests

The Living Space:
Projector with a drop-down movie screen plus Roku SmartTV and plush theater seating make the living room ideal for movie nights and relaxed streaming sessions; an extra sofa bed and air mattress give flexible sleeping options. The room’s beach-themed decor and large windows bring in bright natural light and a casual, family-friendly atmosphere.

Sliding glass doors connect the living room directly to the screened lanai, outdoor TV, and the heated pool so indoor and outdoor gatherings flow easily from one space to the next. The open layout also keeps the living area close to the chef-ready kitchen and dining space, making it simple to cook, chat, and move between meals, pool time, and waterfront activities.

A Second Place to Unwind:
The screened lanai with an outdoor TV, ample seating and a large dining table gives you a true second living area for poolside relaxation and alfresco meals. It sits directly off the main living room via sliding glass doors and opens to the heated, screened pool and private dock, so it’s ideal for morning coffee, casual lunches, or watching the sunset while the kids play. Ultra-fine screens keep bugs out, and pool towels and toys are provided for convenience.

Use the lanai differently from the indoor home-theater living room: the indoor space is set up for movie nights with a projector, drop-down screen and plush theater seating, while the lanai is more social and activity-friendly - stream sports or a show on the outdoor TV, grill nearby, and move easily between swimming, dining, and waterfront time without tracking water through the house.

Cooking & Gathering:
Chef-ready full kitchen: a cooking range, full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, granite countertops and high-end appliances make preparing family meals straightforward. A well-stocked spice rack, cookware and bakeware plus a coffee maker, Keurig and blender let you make anything from quick breakfasts to multi-course dinners, and wine glasses with a wine opener mean you can serve a drink without hunting for supplies. The pantry/laundry area adds a second sink and a second refrigerator for extra storage during longer stays.

Indoor dining seats six at the table with room for three more at the counter, so meals and conversation stay together. Sliding doors open to the screened lanai with a large outdoor dining table, outdoor TV and ample seating for alfresco meals, and a Weber propane grill is available for barbecues-easy to move food from kitchen to poolside or lanai and back, with the dishwasher speeding cleanup.

Outdoor Living:
Screened lanai with ample seating, an outdoor TV and speakers extends the living space outdoors so you can dine, watch a game, or relax without bugs: the large dining table makes alfresco meals easy while ultra-fine screens and a gated fence add privacy and child safety. The adjacent heated saltwater pool is available year-round with loungers, pool towels and toys provided, so you can swim or sunbathe under the Florida sun and enjoy clear water views and evening sunsets from the lanai.

A private dock with boat lift gives direct access to Tampa Bay, about a 15-minute cruise to open water, and the yard includes three kayaks (two singles, one tandem) with paddles, life jackets and fishing gear for on-water exploration and fishing. A Weber propane grill is on site for barbecues, and guests must sign a waiver before using watercraft or fishing equipment; please supervise children and non-swimmers around the pool and dock.

Your Work-From-Anywhere Setup:
Dedicated workspace inside the house plus fast 387 Mbps Wi‑Fi so video calls, file transfers, and cloud apps run smoothly for remote work. The home is suitable for remote workers, making it easy to plug in and stay productive during your stay.

Restful Bedrooms:
Master suite: king bed with a private ensuite, direct lanai access and its own TV for private streaming and easy morning steps outside to waterfront air. Guests frequently comment that the beds are very comfortable, so the master is set up for a relaxing night after a day on the water.

Two additional bedrooms each have queen beds and Roku-equipped TVs and share a full bath with dual sinks and a tub/shower combo, giving separate sleeping areas for family or friends. The home's beach-themed decor and quiet neighborhood mornings help keep the bedrooms calm and ready for restful sleep, while the living room adds a sofa bed and an air mattress to expand sleeping options when needed.

Bathrooms & Laundry:
Master bedroom features a private ensuite while the second full bathroom has dual sinks and a tub/shower combo - great for giving couples privacy and making morning routines easier for the rest of the group. We provide plenty of bath towels plus separate pool towels for swims as well as basic tolietries (shampoo, conditioner and body wash dispensers, handsoaps, and toilet paper.

Laundry is in the pantry/laundry room and includes a washer and dryer plus a second sink and a second refrigerator, which makes longer stays and rinsing swimsuits simple and keeps extra groceries chilled.
