From any chair, simply turn your head to admire the fantastic ocean views from the entire wall of sliding glass doors opening to oceanfront decks.

Vacation means relaxing, so take advantage of the whole house elevator, which takes away the burden of lugging groceries and luggage up the stairs.

Please enjoy provided beach chairs, life jackets, sand toys, a sand wagon, a sun umbrella, coolers, cornhole, and pool toys, as well. After a lazy day on the beach or the pier, feel free to wash the salt and sand away in the freshwater outdoor shower with a newly updated rain shower head. And when you need a break from the sand, step into the backyard and enjoy one of the few private pools on the island! Lastly, if you need another option for a place to relax and unwind, to either escape from the daytime sun or to stay warm and toasty in the evening, try stargazing with a cocktail and the lulling sounds of the ocean, in the hot tub located on the oceanfront second-floor deck.

Retreat back inside this beautiful home and listen to the sound of crashing waves from one of the two primary bedrooms, both with whirlpool baths and separate showers, or from one of the other three oceanfront bedrooms with private baths.
