Description Description
This charming Palmetto Dunes home offers expansive golf course views and features multiple living spaces to host large groups with ease.

On the main level, the living room offers comfortable seating around the flatscreen TV and fireplace, as well as direct views of and access to the private pool and deck. An open floor plan allows an easy flow to the kitchen, which is fully stocked and has plenty of counterspace to make cooking meals easy. The sun-filled dining area has seating for six, and there are an additional three seats at the kitchen bar.

Bedrooms 1, 2, and 3 can be found on this main level, all with great separation between them for added privacy. Bedroom 1 features a king-sized bed that can easily be converted to two twin-sized beds upon request, and bedroom 2 features two twin-sized beds that can be converted to a king-sized bed upon request. These bedrooms offer direct access to the pool and deck through the sliding doors. Bedroom 3 features a king-sized bed along with a flatscreen TV. All bedrooms have their own private bathroom as well as walk-in closets!

On the second level, find an additional great room that features a second living room, kitchen, and dining area—making this home perfect for large groups or families! The living room offers an amazing golf and lagoon view through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to make cooking up here just as easy, and there is seating for six at the dining table as well as additional bar seats.

Take a few steps out to access bedrooms 4 and 5. These rooms feature king-sized beds that can easily be converted to two twin-sized beds upon request. Both bedrooms have their own ensuite bathrooms.

Outside, the pool deck will be your favorite place to spend your days! Let rest and relaxation find you as you unwind in the large private pool. There is plenty of outdoor seating as well as multiple pool loungers, or you can jump right in to cool off. Up a few steps to the viewing deck, this deck will provide you with an absolutely stunning view of the Robert Trent Jones Oceanfront Golf Course and lagoons. There is a full bathroom to make your time out here easy, and a full game room downstairs in the garage for even more fun. The beach is only a short walk down the street if you ever want to leave!

Beautiful Home
This house is great for a multi family vacation! Plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. The pool is huge! Loved sitting on the raised deck and watching the golfers play as well as the wildlife around the lagoon and golf course. Sunsets are specatacular!
It is time for some new bedding though - all guests complained about the beds. Every time you move, they make all sorts of noises....That said, we will be back again!

Relaxing and comfortable retreat!
My wife and I and 4 other couples shared this beautiful home for a great week of sun, sand, golf and food! The home is special with 5 bedrooms, each with a private bath. Two complete living areas with two full kitchens made spreading out an easy option and we never ran short of space for our activities! The pool is huge and the elevated decks have a great view of the 12th hole of the RTJ golf course. A short 5 minute walk to the beach which is very wide and uncrowded was very much appreciated !It’s great house, we hope to stay there again!

Family Getaway
We had an enjoyable stay for our family of 7 adults and 3 children. The house is spacious, well appointed and clean. Beach access is very convenient. The reservation process was efficient and the agents were responsive to our needs.

3rd time around
This is my third time staying in this excellent home. Yes, it’s one of my favorites. It definitely has one of the largest pools in Palmetto Dunes. It’s very private and secluded from the neighbors. The home and pool sit above the surrounding homes. It’s a short walk across the 10 th hole to coco’s for great drinks. The home is newly remodeled. I think the mattresses need replaced, too hard

Family Christmas get together
The house easily housed 5 adults and 3 teenagers. Great that everyone had their own bedroom and bath. Plenty of room for all to spread out.
Attention to outside maintenance is needed, and some fine tuning inside also(missing light bulbs)

Thank you for staying with us, Carol. We appreciate the recommendation. We have scheduled outside maintenance and replaced the light bulbs. We hope to welcome you back.

Outstanding Experience on Mooring Buoy
Our large family had a wonderful vacation at this property. The space and layout is perfect for a large group and the pool is fantastic. The property was in excellent condition. This was our second stay in this house and it did not disappoint. We were thrilled to see a week it was open and planned our trip around that week. Island Time management was extraordinary and the best experience we have had with a management company. Professional, attentive and very helpful.

Great Stay
We had a fabulous week. The layout of the house is a little unique. We had three families staying in the house and we really appreciated the two kitchens with their extra space. There is room for everyone and the house doesn't feel crowded. Pool is great. The location isn't too far from the beach and the views of the golf course are beautiful.
Barbara F. from Davidsonville - Posted: 8/17/2021
Love it! It sounds like you had a fantastic time and we really hope to have you back enjoying the island again some time real soon!

Perfect Fit
We had 3 families coming together with children in their 20" and 30's. We called the first floor the senior floor and upstairs the juniors floor. Each group had their own kitchen, living space and even had our own half bath. The kitchens were very well stocked which is always a pleasant surprise. The pool and pool are was amazing. The elevated deck over looking the golf course was a big hit for the golfers in the group. The beach was a 5 minute walk to a beautiful not to over crowded beach. A fantastic beach front bar, Coco's, was just a 100 yd walk down the sand. We also really enjoyed access to the garage where we could leave all our beach gear. A lot of our stays you don't have that access. We have stayed in Palmetto Dunes every time but once because the locations and golf courses are great. Thanks for a fantastic stay.

If you like being close to a great beach and also having panoramic golf course views, this is the place for you!!

Great place for the whole family
We really enjoyed our time at this property. We were able to get the whole family together and enjoy a relaxing vacation despite the state of the global pandemic. Having such a large pool all to ourselves was a game changer that really made our vacation easy and safe since we didnt have to share with strangers. We also loved having breakfast and morning coffee on the deck overlooking the golf course each day. There are so many nooks to hang out in at this house, making it easy for us all to spread out and relax without having to leave much. The beach access point was 5 min walking and the house had a buggy that we could use to transport all our things each day - as well as games and pool toys that really came in handy. We hope to rent again next year.
A couple notes -
the staff was incredible. We had an issue with our pass situation and they were friendly and immediately helpful.
the shower in one of the upstairs bedrooms wasnt giving enough pressure, but this was easily fixed by having those guests shower in the extra bathroom off the pool.
the outside stairs are a little wonky - wouldn't take much to update, but was certainly not a deal breaker.
all in all we loved our time and will be looking forward to next year!

2’nd time around
I had to come back and stay here again, this time I brought the whole fam. This rental covers all the bases. Location- it’s a 90 second walk to the beach, location- it’s right on the 12th hole RTJ course, and yes multiple people played it every night after the last group played through, plus we were entertained watching the golfers during the day. Location- right on the lagoon, beautiful view and for fishing and kayaking. Location- a few minute walk across the golf course to coco’s on the beach for excellent rum drinks and ambiance. The pool has an outside bathroom in the laundry room, so very convent. The decors awesome Italian. The pool is huge compared to all the rest of the palmetto dunes homes. The only negative was it was green when we arrived and took 8 calls and 5 days to get it corrected. That aside I give this place top shelf designation. Hope to be back in september
