About this property

Shore Thing by GSVR | Renovated Beachfront Retreat w/ Private Pool + FREE Activities/Golf

  • Shore Thing has a great new look with double the windows and decks on the beach side, a new pool that can be heated from October to May for $60 per day, at the main living level and updates in all 10 bedrooms. If you stayed here when it was Barefoot Bungalow II, or even the old version of Shore Thing, you'll appreciate that a great house just got even better!

    Shore Thing has 10 bedrooms--9 with a King or Queen bed and adjoining bath, plus a room with a Twin over Full bunk. You know that is hard to find!

    The main floor features a huge great room with plenty of gathering space for everyone to eat together. The kitchen features a spectacular beachfront view plus 2 full size refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, an undercounter icemaker and a long breakfast bar. Here you'll find 3 main floor bedrooms including 2 beachfront King bedrooms, and a lagoon view Queen. Each also has a daybed for lounging for extra sleeping space (see full description of bedrooms below). You'll also find a half bath and laundry on this floor. New for 2023 is an expanded main level deck with a new pool on this level, and steps down to a large covered space with outdoor games, sand chairs to take to the beach and a grilling area.

    The top floor has 7 additional bedrooms including 5 beachfront king bedrooms, a lagoon-view queen, and a lagoon-view twin over full bunk. There is also a second laundry. New for 2023: there is a huge new upstairs beachfront porch, and lots of additional windows to open up that spectacular beachfront view.
