Bougainvillea Beach House

Welcome to your slice of paradise on Gulf Boulevard! This charming Key West style vacation home boasts 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and one of the most expansive beach view balconies on the entire island. Prepare to be captivated by stunning Gulf vistas from every room (except the bathrooms), ensuring you're always surrounded by the serene beauty of the sea.

Convenience is key here, with the beach and beach access mere steps away across the street. Explore the island effortlessly by walking or hopping on the FREE Island shuttle, which conveniently stops right in front of the house every 30 minutes, whisking you away to local restaurants and the island grocery store.

Perched upstairs, this vacation rental comprises two distinct units, each offering its own private balcony. The North unit, affectionately dubbed the 'jewel' of the house, boasts luxurious touches throughout. From Travertine floors to granite countertops, tumbled marble baths, and commercial-grade stainless steel kitchen appliances, every detail exudes elegance and comfort, beckoning you to make this your annual vacation destination.

Love to barbecue? A spacious charcoal grill awaits on the balcony, allowing you to savor the view while you cook up a feast. After a day of beachcombing, unwind on the porch swing, rocking chairs, or wooden beach chairs, immersing yourself in the soothing coastal ambiance.

We've thought of everything to enhance your beach experience, providing beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, towels, boogie boards, and more, ensuring you have everything you need for endless fun in the sun.

For the avid angler, we've got you covered with exclusive discounts for private bay fishing excursions in the Laguna Madre. Cast your line and reel in the catch of the day, creating memories that will last a lifetime in this idyllic coastal haven. .

PERFECT SPOT

Our stay was amazing. We had a clear view of the ocean right in front of the house, the weather was perfect, and we were provided with everything we could need for a perfect beach day. All of the fun bayside bar and restaurants are walking distance from this spot. Lynn goes above and beyond to make guests comfortable.🪼

Third stay- excellent as expected

This was our third stay. It feels like home away from home. This time it rained a couple of days during our stay. It’s so nice having a porch to enjoy the rainy weather and games to play. One of the days the wind was too strong to go to the beach, but the porch was a perfect place to enjoy the breeze. Lynn is fantastic host as usual.

Lovely stay!

Bougainvillea House was exactly as advertised and more. Lynn was a lovely host, and we had access to chairs, carts, boogie boards and sand play things, which was so convenient. The unit itself was super clean, comfy beds, fluffy towels, new appliances, loved having a w/d in the unit. Beach access was simply crossing the street and then straight through the dunes to the water. We enjoyed our stay!

Escape from Midwest weather.

We keep coming back because we have found what we want from a VRBO. Homey, clean, easy access to beach. Love sitting on the porch during the day and evening. Hostess has thought of every need for a stay at their home. Pet friendly and is set up that your dog has as much fun as you during your stay.

Sure! Here's an extended version: "What a fantastic family getaway! Our host, Lynn, was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. The spacious, clean unit was perfectly located, allowing easy access to nearby attractions. The wrap-around covered patio was a highlight, ideal for lounging, rocking, and enjoying quality family time under the stars. Being pet-friendly with a small fee was a huge bonus, as our furry friend joined the fun! The cozy living room featured a huge TV, perfect for family movie nights, while the full kitchen—decked out with a stove, microwave, toaster oven, dishes, and a coffee pot—made meals a breeze. Both bedrooms had comfortable beds and TVs, ensuring everyone had a great night's sleep. With free parking for 2 vehicles and 3 bathrooms in the north unit, there was never a wait. We truly enjoyed our stay and would 100% recommend this wonderful place to anyone looking for a relaxing family retreat!

Very relaxing

Everything was as described and then some. We stayed 4 nights and had a very relaxing and enjoyable time. We really enjoyed being able to just sit outside and see the ocean from the deck. Lynn and her husband were very accommodating with helping us get around the island. Lynn recommended Tom and Jerry's for a good burger and it didn't disappoint... it was delicious! Her husband also does fishing excursions which my husband wished that he knew earlier in the trip. He definitely would have went on one. All in all we had a really great trip. If we were to return we would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful condo!

Our group of 4 adults and 2 pups loved this beautiful condo. The property inside and out was welcoming. Everything in the condo was clean and it great condition. Lots of cooking supplies in a beautiful kitchen. We enjoyed the grill one evening for burgers on the deck. Comfortable deck with a beautiful view of the ocean just across the street. The master bed was super comfy. The owners were so proactive in communicating and left a very detailed binder with great information about the island restaurants and shops. Great hospitality and so friendly. I highly recommended this condo when visiting SPI.
