This house has a private walkway to spectacular Crescent Beach. You won't even see another person -- unless you want to. Hit the beach for a swim or a walk (you can go for miles) there are restaurants and bars within walking distance, but at the house, it's you and the ocean.

If you want, jump into the car and the world of zoo's, museums, architecture and history is yours. Dozens of parks and ecological destinations within miles. Rent a bike, board, horse or a kayak to see things from another angle-- but... it's not easy to leave that deck!
Please take time to read the REVIEWS, this house does not disappoint.

Cozy, Comfortable, and Beautiful

Loved our stay! Even better than the pictures. Wonderful week with our adult children. The layout in this house is so unique. It has great character and comfort. Spacious enough to give everyone room and cozy enough with lots of places to sit and visit. Great views of the ocean and we loved the beach accessibility. Appreciated the owner’s suggestion of Viola’s for dinner. Delicious! Short walk down the beach to Safe Harbor and really enjoyed our fresh fish meals. Kitchen was set up with everything we needed for cooking as well. Highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Ann Shakeshaft

We have taken great care to design a space that is romantic and comfortable. Think Nancy Meyers movies.

Why they chose this property

Love to walk the beach, shelling and fishing along the way. Great food, biking, kayaking, pickleball and yoga close by to keep you busy.

We are 'house people', we like to fiddle and fix and decorate. This house, aside from being on an amazing beach, is very private and more elegant and "cushy" than most rental beach houses.

We are cooks, and this house has a fantastic kitchen to make great meals-- especially for a number of cooks to do their thing all at once. Buy (or catch) fresh fish and grill it on the deck or in one of two ovens, then wash it down with all the wine you can fit into the separate wine fridge-- finally, walk it out to the deck for a moonlit dinner!

Since the house is built into a sand dune and the views are at the top, there are a number of staircases to make all of the areas accessible. Unfortunately, this makes it difficult for anyone who has trouble with steps.

What makes this property unique

The privacy is really the thing that sets our house apart from ANY other rental on Crescent Beach. You are not dealing with condo renters, or even visible neighbors, this is one of a kind.

The wildlife on our little island is impressive, from the birds that fly along the beach and nest in the spring, to the dolphins and whales that you will see passing by or the turtles that nest on the beach and live in the dunes, we're living in a ecological park.
If you get tired of watching from the house, the area is full of parks and beaches. The Intracoastal waterway is just behind us and that has a completely different vibe-- rent a kayak and check it out when you get sick of surfing, fishing and shelling on the beach. Ha-ha.
Additionally, the house is large and very comfortable with lots of seating areas to provide privacy and quiet.
