We’re so glad you found "The Florida Havens". Our family has spent decades returning to this special stretch of Florida’s coastline, drawn by the natural beauty, quiet beaches, and the sense of peace that’s hard to find elsewhere. Creating "The Florida Havens" was our way of sharing that experience with other families seeking something truly memorable. We’ve thoughtfully designed each of our homes to be a place where you can slow down, reconnect, and enjoy time together—whether that means sunrise walks on the beach, afternoons by the pool, or simply listening to the waves at night. If there’s anything you need during your stay, we’re always just a message away and happy to help with recommendations or special requests.
