The space
Our beautiful Magnolia home offers plenty of room to park in the circle drive when you arrive. You will love taking in the beautiful landscaping upon your arrival. You may want to sit on the front porch for a refreshment, morning coffee or read the newspaper.

As you enter through the beautiful white door, off to the right you will find the first of four spacious bedrooms, this one is equipped with a king, memory foam bed for the outmost relaxing experience. A small breakfast island/coffee nook and seating space will greet you. The front of the house offers a large bathroom right off the main hallway with a large soaker tub.

The split bedroom footprint is an added bonus, with hallways separating the Master from other bedrooms and the living area. The Massive Master has enough room to host its own party with luxurious en-suite bathroom with a large pressure jet-spa tub. The Master suite also has a bonus room attached for a mancave, game room or for an extra kids’ tv/play room.
Off to the right of the master bedroom, there is a bonus space that can be used as a work/office space.

Nestled next to the kitchen you will find the laundry room with plenty of space to handle large laundry loads. Equipped with another bathroom and stand-up shower, Magnolia’s unique floor plan makes this place ideal for entertainment. The fully open concept kitchen, formal dining room and living room lead the way to the back spacious bedrooms.

The French doors off the main living space lead the way to the oversized, fenced-in backyard and paved patio with multiple seating areas. Fire pit and grill make this back yard perfect for nightly get togethers outdoors or celebrating in the Florida sun.

Florida Critters
Despite our meticulous cleaning practices and our best post control efforts, bugs and critters are part of life in Florida. Mosquitos, ants, moths, lizards and frogs sometimes find their way into the house.

Help prevent them by:
• Cleaning up after cooking/eating and wiping countertops
• Keeping food in the fridge
• Rinsing dishes before long periods of time in the dishwasher
• Emptying trash and recycling regularly
• Closing windows and doors that don’t have screens.

1. Anole/Lizard/Gecko/Lagartijas
Totally harmless, and found everywhere, despite our best efforts to keep them outside, they sometimes find their way into the patio and house. If you are so inclined, trap them (corner them) and let them free outside.
2. Millipedes/ milpies
Annoying, but also harmless. Once they enter a home, they will die within 24hrs which is why you’ll often find them dried out/dead. You can either toss it outside or squish it in a paper towel and throw it away.
3. Palmetto bugs/ chinches de palmito
Brown and they look just like cockroaches. While primarily living outside, they seek indoor shelter. Our house is treated to prevent these, but we still see them.
If you are seeing them regularly, please let us know so we can arrange to have another treatment done. If you see one alive, please kill it by stepping on it or squishing it with a paper towel. If you find one dead, it means our treatment is working and we do not need to be notified.

Absolutely no cleaning fish at the property. There will be a fine of $150 for scales and fish remains that are found in the property at the time of cleaning. Find a place locally that will do it for you or clean at designated areas at the marina.

Check-in is after 4pm and during busy seasons it could be as late as 6pm. Please note your code will not work for earlier arrival unless the time was previously agreed upon. By booking you agree and understand that a 4pm check in is not guaranteed, as unforeseen circumstances do happen but we will try our hardest to get the property finished and cleaned in a timely manner.
