Sandy Sea-cret

5.0 · Superhost
5 Bedrooms 4.5 Bathrooms Sleeps 16 Beach house

Sandy Sea-cret is special to us in a way most of our homes aren't: we own it. This five-bedroom beachfront house in the gated Grand Beach community is one of the original homes our family bought, and it's part of the reason Karas Vacation Rentals exists at all. The head of our family is also the president of this neighborhood's HOA, so this is quite literally our own backyard.

Five bedrooms, four and a half baths, sleeping up to 16, just 60 feet from the community beach bridge: you're on the sand in well under a minute.

Inside

Five bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms sleep 16, with a private elevator that makes loading in and reaching every floor effortless. The open living and kitchen level is built for big groups, with the Gulf framed in the windows.

Outside

· Beachfront, just 60 feet to the community beach bridge

· Private elevator for easy access to every level

· Wide Gulf-facing decks

· Quiet, gated Grand Beach neighborhood

Perfect for

· Large families and multi-generational trips (sleeps 16)

· Groups who want beachfront with an elevator

· Guests who value booking a home the owners personally care for

· Anyone who wants the calm of Grand Beach over Seawall crowds
