About this property
Private Beach Bar Vibes | Pool, Grill + Games
Perfect for families, golf groups, and friends looking to unwind in style, The Islander is a spacious 4BR, 2BA coastal retreat designed for laid-back luxury and unforgettable gatherings. Enjoy a true backyard bar experience with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, bar seating, Smart TV, firepit lounge, heated pool, and private putting green—plus a game room packed with shuffleboard, ping pong, foosball, and classic arcade games. Located just minutes from the beach in Jacksonville Beach, this home blends relaxed coastal living with “5 o’clock somewhere” energy all day long.
Professionally managed by Welcome Home Rentals, a locally owned team with responsive 24/7 guest support.
GRILL, CHILL & UNWIND Start your morning slow with coffee by the pool, before taking a quick drive to the beach for a day in the sun. By afternoon, it’s all about the backyard—fire up the grill, turn on the game, mix drinks at the bar, and rotate between the pool, putting green, and lounge spaces. As the sun sets, gather around the firepit, watch the game from the outdoor TV, and enjoy nights that feel effortless, fun, and just the right amount of indulgent. Whether you're here for a long weekend or a month-long escape, every detail supports a seamless stay.
WHY GUESTS LOVE THIS HOME • Entertainer's dream: Fully equipped outdoor kitchen + bar with TV (game-day ready) • Heated pool with sun shelf + resort-style backyard • Private putting green for laid-back fun • Firepit lounge + multiple outdoor hangout zones • Game room with ping pong, shuffleboard, foosball & arcade games • Dedicated guest space for your pup under the stairs
KEY WEST OASIS This is where The Islander truly shines. Designed for that “stay outside all day” lifestyle, the backyard features a heated pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, lounge seating, and space to unwind. The covered outdoor kitchen and bar—with built-in grill, beverage fridge, ice maker, and Smart TV—sets the scene for game days, grilling, and cocktails that turn into long, relaxed evenings. Add in the putting green, firepit lounge, and ambient string lighting, and you’ve got a space that feels more like a private beachside bar than a backyard.

The home itself is breathtaking and WOW the backyard. The dishes, trashbags and extras were a big bonus! We loved our stay and would go back. Only little negative was beach wasnt close enough to walk or really get a a golf cart like we hoped but the pool was better anyway.
We were very please with the entire stay. The family got some real quality time sitting around the pool, playing ping pong and shuffle board. We stayed up late playing card games. It was very special for us to have this time together. Thanks.
Beautiful modern home, the backyard and pool is just amazing. No need to go to the beach everything you need for fun in the sun is right there. Well equipped kitchen perfect for large family meals inside and out. We especially loved all the seating for everyone inside and outside. Thanks for a great place to have our long weekend in Jax Beach. :)
Clean and on the newer remodeled side. Outdoor area was spectacular. We had a few basic questions and received immediate responses from the host. I would highly recommend this house to anyone.
This house is absolutely amazing in every way. It is in a great neighborhood and walk to the park and five minute drive to the beach. The house was clean and spotless and had more amenities than any Vrbo I've stayed at before. The property manager was easy to communicate with and very attentive. The pool was clean, warm and so much fun. I could spend endless days in the backyard. Life is better at this place.
This house was a dream to stay in! We reserved it for a family get together, and the highlight of this house was the backyard! It is perfect for entertaining, hosting dinners, barbecues, you name it. The view of the pool from the outdoor kitchen really makes it feel you are on a tropical vacation.
Everyone in our group raved about the outdoor kitchen and how they had to have one at home. It was truly a treat to be able to entertain our family and friends there.
The house had everything we needed and was clean, cozy, and comfortable. It felt as though we were right at home. And everyone commented on how comfortable the beds were!
Mike and the Welcome Home team were a dream to work with making our stay as seamless as possible. We can’t wait to book this property again.
The Islander home was exactly what we expected. Outdoor space was so relaxing & made it easy to just “hang out”. We had kids and adults staying for the week and everyone was entertained! The beach was close to the house and the host even provided beach chairs/umbrella to take with us. We found plenty of great dinner spots in the evening. Close enough to St. Augustine that if you wanted to go for a visit or to tour downtown, you can! The swings out by the backyard bar were our favorite “fun feature”. The hosts pay attention to detail… for example: we checked in Saturday, the teens played corn hole in the back Sat evening. The boards had some wear from the weather, but we would not have said anything they worked just fine. Sunday we were gone for the day and when we got back to the house someone had been by and swapped out the corn hole boards with new ones. Again, we didn’t mention it or ask. They noticed it and took care of it. All communication with the host was efficient/clear & quick! We will def. Plan another trip!
Cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! We didn't want to leave the property! The backyard space and pool area are simply spectacular. The house is beautifully decorated and the hosts were extremely thoughtful in providing all the little things needed for an extremely enjoyable stay. Highly recommend!
