About this property

Sailfish: Modern Beach Retreat- Pool/Pet Friendly

Sailfish is a modern, serene beach getaway, a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home nestled in a peaceful beach neighborhood. Just 11 blocks, or about ¾ mile, from the shore, this retreat showcases an open floor plan that invites togetherness. With all bedrooms on the second level, the first floor becomes a spacious haven for connection and relaxation. Embrace the beauty of Jax Beach as you bask in the warmth of your private heated pool, practice your skills on the putting green, and gather around the comfortable seating and gas Weber BBQ to create lasting memories.

This is a DOG-FRIENDLY beach house with smart TVs in every bedroom, WIFI, a fully stocked gourmet kitchen including a blender, Keurig and regular coffee makers, and a toaster; all you need is food and drinks. It also has a full size washer and dryer, a gas grill. Linens will be provided for all beds, including the extra sleeper in the living room. Bath and beach towels are also provided, as well as beach gear – beach chairs, cart, blanket, and cooler. The garage has been converted into a game room, so you have everything you need without ever leaving the house!

POOL HEATERS: The pool heaters are electric and draw in heat from the outside air warmed by the sun. Heat pump pool heaters work efficiently if the outside temperature exceeds the 45–50°F range. When temperatures drop below 45°F, the heaters will not be able to reach a comfortable temperature for swimming. Although we rarely experience lows below 45°F, it can happen during the winter months. Thank you for your understanding.

Relaxing and close to the beach!

We were very happy with the house, the pool, yard and the location! First off, the house was in immaculate condition and it was very evident that the management team wanted to exceed our expectations. A clean, organized and a fully supplied kitchen was such a nice surprise. The bedrooms were exceptionally comfortable and all of the bathrooms were pristine. The pool and yard were terrific and we couldn't have felt more at home and relaxed. The one surprise was the neighborhood....only about a 15 m walk to the beach, coffee shops, ice cream, whatever your heart desired. However, only four blocks in the other direction was a public park with pickle ball, basketball, a giant playground and a wonderful large field for kids and dogs to play. Everyone was so nice in the neighborhood and to have all of that combined together made for such a nice month-long stay! Thank you : - )

This is an awesome beach vacation rental

I was very impressed with this vacation rental. It was modern, clean and would be a great rental for a girls trip, family with kids or couples. The game room, the backyard, the added touch of board games… it would be an amazing property for a vacation or staycation if you are a local like me.

Family Reunion

This space was absolutely perfect in every way for my family and I. We loved how spacious it felt with multiple birthday celebrations for mom and niece. We rarely left this little slice of paradise. We look forward to spending more days here in the future. Thank you, Sailfish property for being our home away from home for a whole week.

Good home for a friends vacation

The house was overall great for our friends getaway! The space was enough for 3 couples and the backyard and game room were a hit and a great place to hangout! The only suggestion I have would be to exterminate the house more regularly as we had some bugs in and around the house.

Nice & Relaxing

We had a great time staying here. The location was close to the beach. Mike quickly responded to our questions and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was nicely designed. Even though it was too cold to swim, the pool was nice to watch in the evening along with the solo stove. Will be borrowing some of the ideas when we have our pool installed.

Fantastic rental!

We had the best time here! Close to everything, house is exactly as described and the back yard...amazing. The heated pool was perfect, and the boys enjoyed the putting green. We needed a new pool skimmer, texted the owner and one was dropped off within 10 minutes. Plenty of room for the 8 of us & our pups, with extra family for Thanksgiving dinner. The game room was great with the giant TV, ping pong & air hockey! Can't say enough great things about this house and the owner...we will be back for sure - thanks for a great vacation!

Great family vacation!

We loved our stay at this property! We had 6 adults and 3 children. Everyone was happy! We spent most of our time in the backyard. The pool was amazing and clean. The putting green was a blast. The fire pit was great. The landscaping was beautiful. The inside was very clean and beautifully decorated. We had everything we needed to make dinner at the house. 5 min drive to beach!

Great rental!

This is probably the best equipped rental we’ve stayed in. Everything was anticipated. The house was so well equipped, great location, clean and comfortable. The only issue we experienced is difficulty with the electronic front door lock, which did give us some issues. Other than that it was a perfect place!

Sailfish House

The property and house are beautiful. We were 8 adults and 2 children and there was plenty of room. The management staff was very attentive and prompt to respond if I had a question or need. We were there during Hurricane Helene. A tree came down in the yard and there was a lot of wind damage. The team sent over crews of people to clean up the mess the same day! Location was close to many things. Beach is close, but because of the heat it was too far for us to walk. The kitchen had minimal items. A few pots and pans. If you were to prepare a meal, you would have to literally buy everything. The only thing in the pantry was salt & pepper. There was plenty of dishes and silverware. As far as bath towels, there were 2 per guest and no kitchen towels. We have to do laundry which was no big deal as washer and dryer were new and laundry detergent was supplied. If we were to vacation again, we would most definitely use Home Away. Thank you!

Great host

We have had a few bad experiences with VRBO hosts in the past but these guys were awesome. We did have a cleanliness issue when we first got in but it didn't really appear to be the hosts fault. More like the family who checked out that morning just left it way dirtier than normal. Either way the host corrected it immediately without any argument or hesitation. They were incredibly responsive, professional and easy to work with. Otherwise the back yard is just as awesome as the pictures show. We loved our short ride to the beach in our southern breeze golf cart rental (highly recommend this company) and then returning to hang out in the pool.
