Blue Palm Retreat: Heated Pool, Private Backyard, Walk or take Bikes to Beach

Welcome to your slice of paradise in Jacksonville Beach! 🌴🏠

Get ready to live the beach life in this 3-bed, 3-bath beach house – because why not have a blast while feeling right at home? 😎

Inside, you've got everything sorted – a fully loaded kitchen (yes, we mean everything!), a dining room that's perfect for those family feasts or game nights, and a cozy living room for Netflix marathons or just chilling out.

But wait, there's more – step outside and behold your own personal oasis! A spacious backyard with a large heated saltwater pool is waiting for those lazy afternoon dips or evening swims under the stars. It’s all yours, just steps away from the comfort of your bedroom slippers.

And guess what? The beach is practically calling your name – just a quick 1/2 mile stroll and you've got sand between your toes and waves to ride. Plus, this gem is nestled in a calm, residential nook, so peace and quiet are part of the deal. Yet, when you're feeling fancy, stroll down the street to discover a lively array of restaurants, bars, and entertainment options.

Laundry room? Oh yeah, we've got that covered too. Because who wants to haul a suitcase full of dirty laundry back home?

This spot is all about balance – tranquility when you need it, and excitement just around the corner. So, whether you're planning a family getaway, a hangout with friends, or even a solo escape, this is the spot to be. Come make memories and let the good times roll! 🌊☀️

Great Stay!
This stay was just what our family needed. Enjoyed plenty of time relaxing by the pool with our kids and dog. Also, we were close enough to the beach, but not too close. The bikes were a huge plus to have so that we did not have to deal with parking when going to the beach or restaurants. Owner was very easy to communicate with and very quick to respond. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Everything the web page say and much more 5 stars!
The property exceeded our expectations. It is a spacious, beautifully decorated and appointed oasis! It is close to beaches, shopping and grocery stores, but private and secluded. The host was very responsive and accomodating. We will stay here on our next visit to Jax.

Cool Pool and Beach Getaway
Stayed here with my brother's family (kids) and had a great time. Incredibly well decorated.The layout is perfect for multiple adults or adults and kids. The pool is warm and large with plenty of floaties and toys to keep everyone entertained. Available bikes and accessible beach and pier for beach time and fishing added to the fun!

Perfect Beach House
Everything was fantastic. Loved everything about the house and how close proximity it was to the beach. We were ecstatic when we found out that Sarah provided 6 bicycles, one for each guest, which worked out perfectly!!! We all wished that we were able to stay longer. We will definitely rent this house again in the future!!!

Exceeded expectations
This property was exactly what my family was looking for. The backyard with the large heated pool was the highlight, especially with the cooler temps. The house was clean, updated and loaded with extras. Beds were very comfortable, too. Located close to restaurants, Publix and public access beach, it would be hard to find a better property in Jacksonville Beach. We will definitely stay here again any time we are in the area.

Beyond being beautiful, this home was well organized and provided all the amenities needed for a great stay. The check-in process was simple and the host was wonderfully communicative. We enjoyed time at the beach, riding bikes, swimming in the pool, and relaxing by the fire pit. Would recommend this home without hesitation.

One of the best houses I’ve been to in all our travels
Stellar communication first and foremost. Clean. Well stocked house. Amazing location, walking distance to everything. Also very drivable if that’s your jam. Pool is 15/10. Literally couldn’t get enough.
