Great house

Enjoyed our stay for 30 days. Close and walking distance to town and beach. House is spacious and was clean which is important to me. House is also extremely well stocked with everything you could need, including sand toys for my grandkids. Kitchen has everything you need and more. Is on corner of A1A and a little noisy during the day but is very quiet at night. Spacious and comfortable and would not hesitate to stay again. Also the grounds are nicely kept and flowers were very pretty. The owner Ann communicated well and is easy to reach if needed.

January in Vero Beach

My husband and I enjoyed our month in Vero Beach. The location of the house is excellent---close to parks on the river as well as a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. While it's on a busy street, the house is tucked away and very private. It was clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. Ann was very helpful with clear instructions about the check in process and responsive to us and any concerns we had during our stay.

Central Beach Hidaway

We left after one week. House did not live up to our expectations. We arrived to find that there was a huge construction project underway just outside our door. When I called the owner, she told me that a new bike path was being installed. After research it turns out a new sewer system with a bike path was underway. The construction trucks with the dirt and noise they bring made it impossible to use an otherwise nice screened in porch. Due to the construction barriers lining the streets, accessing the driveway was difficult.........While the construction was something the owners had no control over, it would have been nice to know about it ahead of our arrival. Since we are in our eighties, safety is a high priority. There were no grab bars in the showers. Other places the floors changed heights.....A real tripping hazard. Is amazing no one has been injured. We also were disturbed by the lack of sunlight in the house itself. As former residents of Central Beach, we found the house to be very dark. Even at noon, one had to have at least one light on. Not exactly what one expects when vacationing in Florida....Was hard to realize we were in Florida...the sunshine state.... The final straw was the imminent arrival of a hurricane....a rare occurrence for November.

Home away from home.

This home has everything needed for a great vacation. Walk to the beautiful beach or stroll along the river. Restaurants and shopping all within walking distance! Home is comfy and stocked with all the essentials you will need. The lanai was our favorite spot. WE could watch the rabbits play as we ate all our meals . The neighborhood is beautiful and the people are friendly.

Home away from home.

This lovely home in a quiet community was home for a month. The house was all as it was advertised to be! Comfortable and cozy. We were able to walk to the ocean and the river. Everything we needed was available. Ann and Leo were so easy to communicate with , it felt like I was talking to a friend. If you are looking for a home to relax this is the place! We will definitely be back. Thank you Ann and Leo for sharing your home with us.

Perfect!

Beautiful space near the beach! The house is very private and the large trees provide plenty of shadow for those hot afternoons. Inside stays really really cool if that is something that you want. We loved having the large porch to have lunch with our kids while having a chance to see the many wild rabbits that the property has. The short walk to the beach and the many options of restaurants and shops makes it an ideal place to say in Vero Beach. hopefully we'll be back.

It’s all about the little details.

My wife and I along with our 7 month old daughter sold our house in Vero Beach quicker than expected and were in need of a VRBO for January as we finished our professional obligations. As now former residents of the area we can attest with authority that this place has everything you would want and need in a vacation beach rental. It’s location is perfect for access to beach, boutique retail, bars and restaurants. The owners are very attentive and are very accommodating, especially with our baby. Five stars all around...clean, private, comfortable and well appointed beach home! Mike & Amy

great location!

this is the perfect spot if you want to be able to walk to the beach, shops and restaurants in central Vero Beach. a little noisy since you are right off of A1A but the landscaping completely blocks the view of the road so that is nice. sleeps 4 comfortably; we did not try the Queen size sofa sleeper but the single sleeper chair is a great option for a child.......not enough support for an adult, though. overall, I highly recommend this house.

Lovely, lovely beach house!

Extremely clean and well-maintained. Owners provided terrific, friendly, and prompt customer service. Leisurely walk to the beach, restaurants, and boutique shops. The garden is extraordinarily lush and well cared for. House seems recently remodeled with great care. Off a busy street so you can hear traffic; plug in white noise apps and you're fine. You won't believe the oasis when you pull into the driveway. We have already passed along the site to family.

About the host

Hosted by MS 949 LLC

Whether summer, winter or in-between, we love the beach and we are walkers! Virginia gets cold! So we tend to think about Vero Beach - Vero weather pops up first on my phone! A comfortable climate - we're happy to have you and yours enjoy our place...enjoy the sound of the waves, the breeze, the sand between your toes, the way the sky changes, and the people - so friendly. It's just fun to be at the beach! Our Sand Castle is designed to be relaxing and EASY to enjoy whether solo or with family and friends.

We have explored the beaches up and down the east coast, and beyond. We enjoy good food, nice people, the excitement of seeking new finds, and the comfort of coming home...and sometimes to a home-away-from-home.

We've lived long enough to know what we like and there is so much to like about Sand Castle and Vero Beach. I never worry if I'm pushed for time before leaving Virginia, because anything I need is just around the corner...and we'd be glad to pass along those resources to you as well. That's how a good neighborhood, and good neighbors, work together.

We enjoy hearing from prospective guests, learning about you and addressing your questions. We want you to feel confident about your decision and comfortable during your stay. And, we strive to respond quickly - you'll generally speak with me - the happy beach gal in the photo. I typically monitor messages from 8 am to 10 pm, and reply as soon as I see your message, within 2-3 hours at most.

We truly look forward to hearing from you, and we hope you'll choose to enjoy our Castle near the Sand...

Why they chose this property

A walkable life! "Sand Castle" is in the center of Central Beach - a highly walkable, highly desirable neighborhood! Enjoy your walk to the beach, to lunch or dinner whether casual or upscale, to live theater or the museum of fine art...even to boutiques and to light food shopping. Major shopping, big-box stores, Vero Beach's downtown venues, and Vero Beach Outlets are all easily accessible on the mainland.

Whether you are up early for a sunrise over the ocean, or step out after dinner to see the moonrise over the ocean - it's all unique and so spectacular. Enjoy the super Farmer's Market every Saturday morning - you'll even find breakfast items - and then catch a Saturday evening concert, again with good food available. Or, just walk for the fun of seeing the neighborhood of Central Beach.

And, when you fall in love with the area and want to buy your own place, just let me know and I'll connect with our agent - top notch service!

What makes this property unique

EASY...Sand Castle is an EASY property to ENJOY. It is large enough both inside and outside to move about a variety of spaces, yet small enough to enjoy the garden views from every room and to never feel lost. It's convenient, EASY, relaxed, and at-home.
