Serenity by the Sea SL615 - Pet-friendly home with private pool, king beds, and open-concept living

WHY GUESTS LOVE THIS PROPERTY
Serenity by the Sea is a beautifully designed single-story home in the Safe Harbor subdivision with a private pool, two king bedrooms, and a bright open-concept layout that makes gathering feel effortless. With large windows filling the space with natural light, seating for 12 between the dining table and breakfast bar, and a pet-friendly policy, this home is a standout option for families and groups who want comfort, style, and easy coastal living all in one place.

HIGHLIGHTS
- Private pool with outdoor lounge and BBQ grill
- Pet friendly for up to 3 pets
- Two king bedrooms plus a bunk room that sleeps additional guests
- Open-concept great room with dining seating for 8 and breakfast bar for 4
- Large driveway with parking for up to 5 vehicles

WHAT TO EXPECT
Step inside Serenity by the Sea and the single-story open-concept layout immediately feels spacious and welcoming. Large windows draw natural light across the great room, connecting the living area, dining space, and fully equipped kitchen in one comfortable, flowing space. The dining table seats 8 and the breakfast bar adds 4 more, making it easy to keep large groups together for meals without anyone getting left out.

The primary bedroom offers a king bed with a private ensuite bath, and the second guest bedroom also features a king — a combination that works beautifully for two couples or families who want equally comfortable sleeping arrangements. The third bedroom with a full over full bunk bed and twin trundle gives kids or additional guests flexible sleeping options, and the sofa sleeper in the living room pushes the capacity even further.

Outside, the private pool is the centerpiece of the outdoor experience, complemented by a BBQ grill, outdoor shower, and plenty of space to relax after a day at the beach. With parking for up to 5 vehicles and an in-unit washer and dryer, the practical details are well covered for groups of all sizes.

Vaca June 2025

The house was just as described. Clean, spacious, had all amenities and more. Enough space for our family of 6. Would highly recommend this property to others and we will definitely book again. Private pool was clean and exactly what we needed. We were even able to get in a few workouts during our vacation. Can’t wait to go back. We will also take advantage of the convenience of having the golf cart ready on site instead of renting separately. Everything was in great working condition and clean.
