Watch the ocean waves roar up the beach all day at Sunshine Daydream, perfect for families with spectacular views from the main floor deck of this spacious house!

The split floor plan with three bedrooms, King and two Queen on the 2nd (main) floor, and Queen, Twin Bedroom, and Den Rec room on the lower floor make this house perfect for families or groups. The upstairs space also includes the main living area, gourmet kitchen, and dining, a large deck running the full length of the front of house that looks out over the water, and a rear deck with rockers looking out over the gorgeous trees in the backyard with a peak of the river. The lower level has a Queen bedroom w/rear deck seating area, Twin bunk bedroom, and Den/Gameroom featuring a sofa pullout, large screen tv, game table, Kitchenette, foosball and board games. Wake up to sunrise everyday over the ocean with your cup of coffee enjoying the ocean breezes! The downstairs den is a perfect spot for the kids to hang out and watch a movie or play a game of foosball. The house comes fully stocked with kitchen supplies so that you can cook "at home," along with soft bath and beach towels, and crisp bed linens. Enjoy a number of fine restaurants, plenty of bars, and local attractions, parks, and the beach all within a few minutes' drive.

Amazing Experience!
I highly recommend this property!!! It is large and spacious. We hosted Thanksgiving lunch with my extended family of 32 and never felt crowded!! The game room downstairs was great for the teeenagers. The adults enjoyed the front porch with a great view of the ocean! The younger kids and the dog enjoyed the fenced in backyard. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was clean and up to date! All the beds were very comfortable. We will definitely be renting this house again!

Excellent House for a truly wonderful wedding week.
The house is exactly as advertised, but even bigger in person. Location is fantastic if you love the sound of the ocean and enjoy the ocean breeze. I really can not overstate how much I enjoyed the location and that magnificent front deck. The inside of the house was clean and beautifully decorated. Kitchen exceeded our needs, bedrooms were nice, and the beds were comfy. Only bathroom complaint is low water pressure. We were able to comfortably host 20 people upstairs after our wedding, in case you're wondering if the house can accommodate a group for a few hours. It was an excellent house for a truly wonderful wedding week.

Beautiful property!
We enjoyed our stay here & were pleased with the responsiveness of the owners. It was just big enough for us & they allowed us to bring our 2 dogs which are more like family than a pet. We appreciated that they gave starter toiletries! The neighbor was super friendly. We’d stay again if we we could were coming back this way.

Old A1A Beach House
The house does have some age but is in good shape. Nice view of the Ocean from the front deck. Access to the beach is not directly across the street as expected in the pictures. Beach access is a short ride across the A1A bridge but walking would take a few minutes especially with beach gear. Although the kitchen was fairly stocked with pots and pans we were disappointing a large seafood steamer was not available for fresh seafood. A smaller pot was used in shifts to make do. We had a issue with the garbage disposal that was corrected a few days after we called. I was disappointed with the response time. Overall it was a good family vacation. Could have been better but some things were out of our control, like the weather.

Family gathering
We enjoyed the stay. The house and ocean view was very pleasant. The layout worked well for our group. The beach access was not the greatest at high tide, but the recent storms have been hard on the Florida coast. The cookware is getting a little worn and a new can opener might be a good idea. We had a great visit. Thanks for the nice weekend.

Quiet & relaxing property
PERFECT location to beach. Quiet and relaxing. Backyard was definitely disappointing, esp. with 2 dogs. Completely underutilized and did not feel safe letting dogs loose with all the vegetation or snapping turtle in the yard… House as pictured. Advertised grill but had no propane. Could use a few adjustments but very spacious and met most needs.
