Whether it's fluffy pancakes at sunrise or a seafood feast at sunset, this kitchen makes cooking a joy. Share meals at the grand dining table, sip wine at the bar while the “chef of the night” works their magic, or simply sink into the living room where walls of glass pull the Gulf right into your morning coffee ritual.
And if you'd rather leave the apron behind, we can recommend a private chef to create a personalized dining experience right in your home. Imagine a candlelit dinner crafted from fresh Gulf seafood, paired with fine wine, while the waves provide the soundtrack. It's coastal luxury, redefined.
Step into Shipwatch's expansive living room, where elegance meets comfort. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views of the Gulf, filling the space with natural light and creating a serene coastal ambiance. The open-concept design features plush designer seating, sleek coastal décor, and a statement coffee table perfect for gathering with family and friends. A large flat-screen TV and built-in entertainment system provide the ultimate in relaxation, while seamless access to the balcony invites you to enjoy the gentle ocean breeze. Every detail has been carefully curated to blend modern luxury with the timeless charm of beachside living.

🌴 Coastal Living, Elevated
Outdoors, the private pool invites you to cool off between toes-in-the-sand beach walks. Lounge with a book while waves crash just steps away, fire up the gas grill for an evening feast, or explore the neighborhood on four complimentary bicycles.
