Fetching, cozy home, Sleeps 4! Pet&kid friendly!

This house sleeps four people. It is pet and children friendly, we believe time with family is important. It has a fenced yard and wonderful exterior furniture and a swing.  Linens furnished and all beds are made. Excellent location. Just a quick drive to area restaurants and market (The Big Store) on Bolivar Peninsula. Bright and gorgeous house! Minutes from the beach.  Great view of the Intercoastal and Gulf.  Huge front deck with a deck on the rear as well.  The outdoor entertainment area under the house makes entertaining a pleasure. Great house to spend time with your family and relax. After a day at the beach, use the beach shower downstairs to wash sand from children and pets. Enjoy the shaded area under the house while your children and/or pets play. Master Bedroom has king size bed. Living room has a twin daybed with trundle. You have access to complete house and property. We have used our many years of experience of designing and building beach homes to design and build all our houses to accommodate our customers’ wants and needs. We did this so you will have the most enjoyable vacation we can offer. We have done our best to make your stay as memorable as we possible can. If you need us, we are just a message away! If the house is missing something, just contact us and we will get it right to you. This house is just a quick drive from all the shops and restaurants. You will need a personal vehicle to get around the peninsula. You are allowed to drive your vehicles on the beach. Of course, you can always rent a golf cart and have fun while driving in open air! If you park on the beach, a parking permit is required and can be purchased for $10 at The Big Store and other local stores. Due to the height above ground we build, there is a little movement in the house. Golf Cart access to the beach just down the street. Bolivar Peninsula offers a laid-back atmosphere.



If there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable, please don’t hesitate to ask. I hope you feel like this is your home away from home. Enjoy your stay with us!

This place (Fish Fantasy) is a perfect writer's retreat, especially in Winter. No sound but the ocean breeze, and a peaceful view with a large deck on the sunrise side, plus a small deck with two cocktail chairs on the sunset side.The worst problems: It's not on the beach, and mosquitos come out at night, as they do throughout this region. I had trouble with the key box (it's the one WITHOUT a visible combination) but the host answered my message within two minutes and straightened me out.It's basic construction, relatively new, sized for one couple, clean and with more amenities than I expected (plates, towels, kitchen gadgets, charcoal grill, etc.) No gotchas and no complaints.

The air conditioners are so loud that you couldnt hardly hear anything else, however they did keep it cool in the house . We couldnt figure the tv out , there was no remote to turn it on, the instructions left were not very clear but somehow you had to use your phone as the remote. I discovered as i was cooking , that the bowls were all dirty in the cabinet , gross. Had a nice outside area upstairs but mosquitos were horrible. No vent above stove so when cooking the smoke alarm kept going off, the oven smokes horribly like someone spilled something before our stay and didnt clean it up. We left a day early needless to say

Loved this place, perfect spot. Beach and bay views, close to beach. Landlords were great to work with, place was very clean and ready. Perfect with dogs or kids with fenced in yard. Love it, would love to come back.

The hiuse was clean. The actual fenced yard area was clean. Was trash all in ditches and in front of property. They have absolutely nothing in the house with exception of the couple towels and wash cloth. No dish towels, not even salt and pepper. Allow one roll of paper towels. No remotes and the one for the fan didnt work. Not close to amything either.

When I arrived at 4:30, the code I was given did not work. I called the local property manager several times and finally decided to go eat dinner while waiting for an email from the owner or a call from the PM. Got a call with another code. Went back to house after dinner and while trying the 2nd code, I was getting eaten by mosquitoes trying to get through to the PM. Finally, got a text with another code and got in. We were sitting in the car because of the mosquitoes. We bring everything inside, sit down and notice a german cockroach crawling from behind the blinds on a window. And then another, we get up to kill them, then another and another and another. I found some spray and started spraying them, all around the house, on the walls, floors and ceilings. And then I notice there are 10's of roaches coming in around the door. We didn't know what to do and kept killing them, at least 60 when we got through to VRBO. I sent photos but the videos would not load. There were hundreds of cockroaches in the house when we left and just as many outside the front door and the front window. We left stunned and in disbelief. The PM said the bugs were bad this year. The owner said they spray. I cannot tell you how awful of an experience this was. In our next two places, we kept thinking we were seeing cockroaches on the floor. Thankfully, we were not.
This is the initial pile that kept getting bigger as we killed roaches
