About our property

The ground floor offers a very large porch with a view of the Gulf of Mexico.  Just inside you will find a living room on the right of the foyer and a large formal dining room on the left.  Our kitchen is fully stocked with implements including cups, dishes, pans, pots, and coffee service.  Everything you need to prepare meals at home.

A second living area includes a sleeper sofa and another flat-screen TV.  Clearly, the ground floor is for entertaining.  A bathroom with sink and toilet is available between the dining room and kitchen.

The second floor is our sleeping area.  A king bed is located in the master with access to a full bathroom.  A bonus is the private enclosed balcony with views of the beach.  The next bedroom has a queen bed with its own private enclosed balcony again with views of the beach.  The third bedroom has two double beds and the fourth bedroom has a queen bed.

The laundry room is located on the second floor through one of the bedrooms.  We know this is unusual but considering that when the house was built people did not have indoor laundry rooms, it had to go somewhere.  A full-size washer and dryer are yours to use.

This is a very large house with lots of doorways and character.  Your BBQ is located on the side of the house.  The large fenced front yard can be used for sports or watching your children play.  During events, this property is in demand as a location where you can watch floats and participants drive down Beach Blvd.

Parking is no problem.  We have a fully paved parking lot that will accommodate up to seven cars.

Rent our companion property, Beachfront Beacon, a townhouse attached to the North side of this historic house.  An addition was made to the original house designed to accommodate up to eight people in four bedrooms.  This property can be booked along with the Lighthouse Sands Serenity to accommodate up to 16 people.  Contact us if you would like to book both properties at the same time.

Christies offers a 5% discount for a single booking entity for both properties at the same time.  While we will permit events such as birthday parties, guests must have prior approval after agreeing to terms and conditions including noise, parking, alcohol, etc.   Contact us for special events or to book both properties at the same time.
