Great home base….
Was visiting for a wedding and was so thankful to have the pool and be close to all my FL family. Also loved all the different seating areas inside and out. Had everything we needed and was exciting to see the alligator every night. Highly recommend if you have a need to be in Sebastian.

Everything we imagined, and so much more!!
We booked this house for our annual fishing trip/anniversary. Everything about this property is spot on. It was clean, beautiful and relaxing. What impressed me the most is the attention to details when it comes to hospitality and comfort: two nightstands in the primary bedroom, plenty of seating options, plenty of towels and a kitchen that was stocked with everything you would need to make a meal. We took advantage of the restaurant suggestions and were very happy we did!! Close to amazing beaches, shops, restaurants, and great fishing lakes, the Jumping Fish House is perfectly located! Ashley is great and very responsive. We can’t wait to come back!!

Great Vacation
Our second stay at Jumpin Fish House and it never disappoints! The owners have thought about everything to make our visit perfect. Quiet neighborhood but very easy to find and get to. Close enough to everything but far enough away to relax. Perfect patio area for sitting every morning with coffee and listening to nature and the jumping fish are an entertainment of their own. If we could give it more than 5 stars we would. Absolutely loved our stay and hope to repeat next year!

Wonderful trip!
My sister, niece and I stayed at the house. The location was fantastic. Only a 15 minute drive to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. It was very enjoyable to look out on the river and watch all the birds and alligators. The pool was great. We spent almost all of our time (when we weren’t at the beach) sitting on the lanai, enjoying the view and the weather. The house had everything that we needed, all amenities and plus some. Very clean and nice Florida decor. We would definitely come back. Highly rate this property.

Lovely very clean house with a warm pool on a river. The river is full of jumping fish and 2 alligators. We swam in the pool and watched the fish and alligators all day. Quite a unique experience.

We had the best week in Sebastian Florida. The house was better than we could have imagined. Our kids practically lived in the pool and it was so relaxing to be able to see the river behind. The house was clean and had everything we needed.

Birds, jumpin fish and relaxation
If you enjoy listening to the birds sing and watching the fish jump out of the water, give this cute house a try. The pool is a relaxing place to watch birds come and go. In a quiet and well kept community. Very relaxing! Try Hen House Eatery for breakfast.

Fun and Relaxing
The Jumpin Fish house is located in a peaceful setting with beautiful trees, abundant birds, and jumping fish. It is convenient to shopping and beaches. We found the pool very relaxing. The split floor plan provided privacy for our adult daughter. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and hope to return next summer!!

Tranquility
So peaceful and tranquil! Was a pleasure waking up every morning and sitting by the pool listening to the sounds of nothing but nature and the splash of the fish as they jump. Saw so many variety’s of birds and even a few alligators (who never came on shore and did not bother us). Perfect place for a couple or a family. Host was super helpful and house was stocked with everything you could ever need, including bikes, fishing poles, pool toys and games for much needed down time because there is so much to see and do. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Great location. Clean. Fun atmosphere.
Check in process was simple. Jumping fish were definitely included with this property. The house is a little dated but is clean and spacious enough for a family. Outdoor pool water was colder then we expected but it was enjoyable nonetheless. The location truly sets this property apart. Close to the beach and close to I-95 access.

Fun watching jumping fish
Enjoyed the jumping fish! They were fun to watch. Bed in 2nd bedroom was too high for my older sister to use so she had to use the 3rd bedroom twin bed. Would not recommend the 2nd bedroom for anyone older (or shorter). Was a little surprised when we weren't warned that pool maintenance and then yard crew showed up without any warning, especially startled when sitting in pool area and the worker walked right in to enclosed pool area, with no notice, when my senior citizen sister was alone. There are chairs in pool area but no loungers so couldn't "layout" by the pool. Just an FYI - most beaches were 15-20 minutes away.

How it should be
Great sums it all up. The owners obviously understand service. Plenty of dishes cups, silverware, cutlery, paper towels, toilet paper, even dishwashing and laundry detergent. Too often I have stayed at places where you literally are buying everything and leaving it all behind. These guys get it. And the price was fantastic as well. Clean and just as advertised. We will be back the next time we are close to Vero beach.
