Pool & Outdoor Space
The home's signature feature is its large private pool, heated to 82°F between 7am and 8pm during winter months for comfortable swimming even in cooler weather. Guests have access to pool floats, towels, a wagon, cooler, chairs, and toys, plus an outdoor grill for al fresco meals. Pool use is at guests' own risk and subject to posted rules, with temperature changes only by prior arrangement with the host.

Large indoor and outdoor gathering areas suit meals, games, and quality time together. In-unit laundry (washer with detergent provided), air conditioning, heating, and cable TV round out the practical comforts.
Location & Surroundings
The property is close to shopping and dining along Ocean Drive, with numerous American, breakfast, and Southern-style restaurants such as Waterfall Restaurant, Kountry Kitchen With Love, and Nettie's Roadside Restaurant all within a few kilometers. Cultural stops like the Indian River Citrus Museum, Vero Train Station, and Old Vero Man Museum are nearby, along with recreation at Vero Beach Community Center Park and BigShots Vero Beach.

Best for
This home is best suited to families and groups traveling together for a beach vacation, thanks to its heated private pool, crib, kid-friendly amenities, and spacious gathering areas for meals and games. It also appeals to travelers who prefer self-catering, given the well-equipped kitchen, laundry facilities, and free parking, and to those wanting a quiet residential setting within easy reach of the beach and Ocean Drive dining.
Travel tips
Plan for about a ten-minute drive to public beach parking, where beach parks offer free public parking, restrooms, and easy beach access. A car is recommended for reaching the many nearby restaurants and cultural sites, though the 27th Ave & 4th St bus stops are within a short walk for local transit. If visiting in winter, note the pool is only heated to 82°F between 7am and 8pm, so plan pool time accordingly.
