“As Good As It Gets" A perfect '10' includes a new high end luxury kitchen and new master bathroom. Everything is freshly painted and beautiful new driftwood tile floors. This is a luxury stay! The property features a front covered porch, rear screened porch, and a lushly landscaped yard with a picket fence with lavish pool right out back. Very clean! Beach service (Chairs and umbrella) for 2 included!

A VERY short walk to private uncrowded Frangista beach (4 minutes and your toes are in the famous Emerald Waters) with the uncrowded neighborhood pool directly behind home. You can sit on screened porch and watch the kids swim in the luxurious large pool. This charming cottage has 11 ft ceilings and all driftwood tile floors (no carpet). The owner is an interior/kitchen and bath designer and has left nothing unattended - you will be pleasantly surprised by the tasteful vintage decor. Colors are soft and relaxing and no detail has been overlooked including high quality bedding. You will be charmed by the iron beds, cotton quilts and vintage linen fabrics. There is a large LCD TV with surround sound in the gathering room and 3 flat screens in bedrooms as well as DVD in living room. There is a luxury king bed in the master (guests rave), a king in bedroom 2 and queen in the other bedroom. There is also a queen sleeper sofa (new in 2019) and a queen air mattress with integrated air inflation.

You will feel as if you are staying at a Five Star Luxury Bed and Breakfast. The master suite, named La Jardin Suite (the garden suite) has soft pistachio green walls, hydrangea wreath, garden statuary, wrought iron accents, and beautiful art and accessories. It is refreshing and relaxing and perfect in every detail. The secondary suite, named La Petite Suite, is decorated with a Country French cotton quilt and bedding, black iron bed and black distressed furnishings. Beautiful original oils and limited edition prints complete the pleasing ambience of this room.

The kitchen is fully equipped so if you prefer to donning your apron instead of waiting in line at a restaurant, everything you need is there including stainless appliances, a new LG induction range, a new Bosch dishwasher, Bosch side by side fridge with ice and water in the door and and refrigerated filtered water at the sink.

The gathering room is something out of a magazine with it's slip-covered furniture, original oils and vintage touches. The large oval table in a distressed red finish will seat 3-4 plus 5 at the kitchen island.

Your toes will touch the beautiful white sands of the Gulf in minutes. You cross Scenic 98 which is not busy. We are confident if you stay once, you will return, making 'As Good As It Gets' your Florida beach tradition.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time in the area and As Good As It Gets was the perfect rental for our family. Cottage feel, beautifully decorated and the screened in porch is where we spent most of our downtime for morning coffee, evening drinks and games with the family. The pool is in the backyard and was never very crowded. Nice fenced in yard for our dog. Very short walk to the beach and restaurants/stores. Quick drive to anything else we needed. Perfect location. The beds were very comfortable! The management company was very quick to respond.Will definitely look here again next time in the area!

A very nice place to stay, not far from the beach. Be advised that the community is very noisy, we had to call the sheriff on some neighbors due to loud parties and fighting outside.

Thanks for your review. My housekeeping service is supposed to bring 10 sets of bath, hand and wash rags. Then of course you can use the large capacity washer/dryer. If there was less than that please message me and I’ll address that with housekeeping. Thanks for visiting !

Spring break trip

My family and I stayed here for our Spring Break trip and had the best time. The house was perfect for 4 of us - being right behind the pool was extremely convenient because my kids love to swim. Pool was heated which was great for March. Super close to the beach, which was also beautiful. House was fully stocked with everything we needed
