Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
Home Gem! Heated pool, lush backyard a block from the ocean on Central Beach! is a tastefully renovated, fully furnished vacation home in the Central Beach area of Vero Beach (Florida Ridge, United States). Updated in 2022, it pairs mid-century character and “Old Florida” charm with modern conveniences, and sits on a large, fenced 14,000 sq ft lot designed for indoor-outdoor living.
Layout & Sleeping
This is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home set up for longer stays with a full kitchen and in-home laundry. Sleeping includes a king bed in the primary bedroom and two full beds in the guest bedroom, plus an extra twin mattress for an additional guest. Linens, towels (including beach/pool towels), and kitchen utensils are provided.
Kitchen & In-Home Amenities
The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a gas range/oven, microwave, and the essentials for self-catering. A wine refrigerator and wine buffet/credenza are stocked with wine and cocktail glassware. Comfort features include air conditioning, heating, cable TV, free Wi‑Fi, a washer, and a real wood-burning fireplace with logs provided; the home is smoke-free.
Outdoor Space & Recreation
Outdoor highlights center on a private, tropical backyard and a patio area with an outdoor dining table and chairs. Guests have access to an outdoor pool that is heated in winter when temperatures drop below 78°F, and there is a warm “hot tub area” within the pool (not a jacuzzi). A gas outdoor grill supports poolside meals, and the fenced yard adds privacy.
Location & What’s Nearby
Set about a block from the ocean with beach access, the home is walkable to a dense cluster of Central Beach dining. Nearby options include Ocean Grill (about 471 m), Waldo’s Restaurant (about 474 m), The Wave Kitchen & Bar (about 457 m), Mulligan’s Beach House (about 489 m), Citrus Grillhouse (about 590 m), Cobalt (about 624 m), and Grind and Grape (about 341 m). For transit and airports, Casey’s bus station is around 287 m away, and Vero Beach Regional Airport is about 5.7 km away.
Best for
This property best fits couples, friends, and repeat vacationers who want a private home with a heated pool and a walk-to-the-beach Central Beach location. It’s also ideal for travelers who plan to cook and entertain, thanks to the fully equipped kitchen, wine fridge/glassware setup, and outdoor dining with a gas grill. Guests who value a spotless, well-appointed home in an easy, restaurant-rich neighborhood should feel especially well matched.
Travel tips
Because the home is roughly a block from the ocean and close to many Central Beach restaurants, plan on walking for beach days and dinners; Casey’s bus station (about 287 m) is also nearby for local transit. If you’re arriving by air, Vero Beach Regional Airport is the closest listed airport (about 5.7 km), while Melbourne Orlando International Airport is much farther (about 57.5 km). In winter, expect the pool heat to run when temperatures dip below 78°F, and note the “hot tub area” is part of the pool rather than a separate jacuzzi.
What guests say
Reviews consistently emphasize exceptional cleanliness and an “immaculate” condition throughout the home. Guests repeatedly note that the house is well appointed, particularly praising the fully stocked kitchen, abundant towels for bath/beach/pool use, and very comfortable beds. The pool and outdoor setup (including the grill) are highlighted as standout features for relaxing days at home. Location is a recurring strength, with guests saying it’s hard to beat for Central Beach access. The provided excerpts do not surface recurring negatives.
