Komfortables nautisches Themenhaus mit Pool

We took over management of Beach Bird in 2011 from an agency to better serve our guests. Thanks to Homeaway now VRBO, this was not as daunting as expected; it turns out everything is done online now anyway. We get to meet and know our guests and this has been very rewarding; there are some really great folks out there and providing them with a first class vacation has been a wonderful experience. When you have guests relaxing and having a good time it makes all the hard work worthwhile. We especially enjoy hosting family reunions and have worked to add to our amenities to accommodate all ages. We are working on bedroom and bed arrangements to be able to provide a comfortable stay for family and friend groups and be flexible depending on the mix of adults and kids. We have one of the larger pools in town and a number of patio sets on multiple decks. We have many wonderful interactions with guests and always encourage requests or suggestions. Over the years we have worked hard to provide trouble-free stays so have gradually gotten two of everything possible, two refrigerator-freezers, two microwaves, coffee makers, two gas grills. Many times we have responded to questions and suggestions from guests and drove down and purchased an item the same or next day. We are so busy each off-season that we have never had a chance to stay at Beach Bird, so that is another reason we appreciate guest suggestions.

For me Beach Bird was love at first sight; my real estate agent wanted to turn around and leave immediately. All the windows and doors were frosted and furnishings were pretty basic, but I liked the layout and location in the low-traffic North End. You would never guess now with the large pool and gazebo but the backyard was a bramble patch. But there were great views, and the owner had already installed solar hot water, so we already had a start on my goal of going solar. We now have a solar pool heater. Every off season we were busy remodeling starting with the doors and windows. Some day maybe I'll get to stay there a few days without working and see what it's like!

Over the years as Sandbridge has become busier I have come to appreciate the North End more and more. You can walk or bike ride without worrying about busy traffic, and crossing the street to the beach path is never an issue. The neighbors have been great and we have tried to be selective in having guests who like to relax and enjoy peace and quiet on their vacation. We have made the backyard pool area into an oasis where you can relax by the pool and keep and eye on the kids in comfortable reclining patio chairs out of the hot sun under the gazebo cooled by the ocean breeze. I'm sure that sounds like hype but we do actually get an afternoon rising convection sea breeze most afternoons. When I'm taking a break from the remodeling; it's my favorite spot. With the new decks on the addition we now have the original East-facing front deck and patio furniture and the new second floor 360 sq. ft. South facing deck with patio area, and the new 180 sq. ft. third story deck with ocean views. We plan to provide under deck water drainage so with the original Gazebo area, now doubled, we will double again with shaded rain-sheltered lounging and patio areas.
