Vilano Home Stay

The Saltwater and Sunsets home is the perfect Vilano Beach getaway. The location is perfect and so close to everything and good eats. The home is stunning with ample amenities and luxury accommodations. The hosts have not missed any detail. We enjoyed the late night hot tub hangs, afternoon swims in the pool, golf cart rides to Cap’s for dinner, walks on the beach at sunset, coffee on the front porch rocking chairs and plenty of good night’s sleep. We can’t wait to visit again!
