About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Restoration Sands: FL Beach House DIRECTLY on Beach! Pool, Elevator, Hot Tub!

HAVE IT ALL — Live/Work/Play/Relax on your own private beach—and at your very own private luxury ocean-to-river beach house. Get far away from the crowds … and get closer to those who matter the most. Less than an hour away from Palm Beach International Airport, arrive at your own 5-star oceanfront palace on a remote barrier island on the FL Treasure Coast, located in "America's Happiest Seaside City" (Coastal Living Magazine national award winner; see more below). Your own beach house is a tranquil oasis, safely isolated worlds away from the troubles of the day. Need to connect online? Enjoy a rare luxury among vacation rentals: Gigabit-speed commercial-grade secure Wi-Fi internet so fast, you can stream 4K movies at night. And the signal is so powerful, you can work from outside, while on the beach or at the end of the dock. (Perfect for the kids' homework/homeschooling, too.)

SPOTLESSLY CLEAN — We meet & exceed all safety measures & best practices specified by the CDC, FL Dept. of Health, and FL Dept. of Business & Professional Regulation. We utilize hospital-grade cleaning & disinfectant standards, and stock your home with cleaning supplies, alcohol, wipes, hand sanitizer & more. (During the initial pandemic shutdowns in Spring 2020, our spotlessly-clean homes passed muster with "front line" teams at hospitals & medical departments, who leased multiple beach houses to host entire hospital nursing units and doctor families for extended stays during those first scary months (when the mode of transmission was not yet clear).

SAFE — This home is managed by Beach Houses in Paradise, the 20-year leader in Florida beachfront vacation rentals.

SAVE — with the owner's many discount plans: FL resident, senior, first responder, military, education, medical, civil service, volunteer & more.

ABOUT RESTORATION SANDS:

Wear your t-shirt, shorts & flip-flops to the airport, because that's all you need for your Florida beach-house vacation … We provide the rest. Travel light—and live large—with the fully-stocked, 5-Star-amenity properties of BHIP! ("We stock heavy, so you can travel light.")

Introducing "Restoration Sands", a 9BR/6BA Scandinavian-style spa retreat, with a new heated oceanfront swimming pool! Originally a Fortune 500 corporate lodge and fishing retreat (owned at one point by the infamous Enron company), this sanctuary on the sea was recently remodeled from ground to roof by a Swedish family who appointed it with the latest Scandinavian styles and décor. Featuring hidden high-end kitchen appliances, sauna, steam baths & more. Restoration Sands is all-new both inside & out, painstakingly renovated & redecorated to the exacting 5-star luxury standard of BHIP.

Rejuvenate with a beachfront massage—or yoga class in the sand—on your own private 100 feet of Atlantic beach. Refresh with a swim in the warm waters of the Florida Atlantic ocean. Revive your spirit / Reinvigorate your relationships / Reconnect with family / Renew the spark. All at Restoration Sands!

This temple to tranquility is an ocean-to-river paradise perched high atop an oceanfront sand dune. The home is so close to the ocean that a child can toss a tennis ball into the water, from the home's large wraparound deck. And with 9 bedrooms & 6 bathrooms (including 4 bedrooms with private en-suite bathrooms), this stylish retreat is packed with features to delight everyone in your family group, across all ages.

And right across the street is a150-foot-long deep-water dock on the Indian River, offering some of the best fishing in the world, & stocked with all your favorite water toys (complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, snorkel, bicycles, fishing poles & tackle, metal detectors & more).

At rates starting at less than $100 per night per bedroom, enjoy 5-star luxury amenities & accommodations at an affordable price (the proverbial champagne on a beer budget!) Note: Restoration Sands is rented only to one party at a time; you will not be sharing the premises with strangers or unknown travelers.

Own a boat? Bring it! Moor it at the shared dock, & there's even room to park your trailer. (Boat ramp just 1 mile away).

FITNESS / TENNIS / PICKLEBALL / GOLF & MORE SWIMMING POOLS: While the ocean and river are fun, and the home's private heated pool and soothing jacuzzi hot tub are also a blast, some outdoor fanatics still want MORE: So, with your stay of 1 week or longer, the owner includes FREE complimentary passes to 3 resort-style pools at the nearby Ocean Club @ the Marriott Hutchinson Island Resort, conveniently located just 1 mile north of the home. (Your free passes provide access to the private18-hole golf course, tennis/pickleball complex & fitness, too).

REVIEWS: Read our reviews, and see how families and groups like your own are enjoying five-star experiences IN THEIR OWN HOUSE, at a fraction of the price of a beachfront hotel or resort! For more than 1,000 additional five-star reviews of BHIP homes in the same neighborhood, type "VRBO Beach houses in Paradise" into your favorite internet search service and read all of our five-star VRBO reviews for BHIP beach houses just like this one.

About BHIP: Restoration Sands is one of several luxury 5-star properties operated by Beach Houses in Paradise, the 20-year leader in offering 5-star luxury, amenities and service in sunny FL beachfront settings.



ALL-INCLUSIVE / EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED:

From bicycles to beach blankets, towels to toilet paper, paddleboards to picnic baskets, and all points between. Did you know that fewer than 25% of the FL listings on VRBO include high chairs for little ones? And less than half of listings include an iron/ironing board? (Experiment with the VRBO "More Filters" search feature and see for yourself) Many vacation rentals don't even provide you a full supply of toilet paper (!) or such basics as towels, bed linens, toiletries, paper goods or even cooking essentials like salt, pepper, spices, oils & other basic staples.

And can you imagine arriving at your vacation rental, only to discover that there are no coolers, ice, beach chairs, beach towels, beach blankets, umbrellas and beach toys like sand pails, bikes, cornhole, volleyball, kayaks, & horseshoes? Why waste the first day of your precious vacation—& more money—shopping at the local Wal-Mart? Instead, book a Beach House in Paradise and begin relaxing the ~moment~ you arrive. (We even pre-heat hot tubs & pools & put out the bathrobes & towels so your relaxing beach vacation can start the moment you arrive.)

No hidden fees: Other vacation-rental companies nickel & dime you with surcharges such as pool-heating fees, Wi-Fi surcharges, fees for using shampoos & soaps, rental fees for kayaks, bikes & paddleboards, even a fee if you don't empty the refrigerator at the end of your stay(!) At BHIP, there are no hidden surcharges, fines or penalties.

Plus: Enjoy our complimentary water toys & recreational items. Kayaks, paddleboards, bicycles, fishing & snorkel gear & more. Jet skis & boats available, too!



VIDEOS, 3D TOURS, FLOOR PLANS & MORE: Want a closer look at the beach house? Just ask! We have videos, architectural floor plans, Immersive 3D Tours, and more. (Note: All communications must take place on the VRBO platform; this home is available only via VRBO)



PERFECT LOCATION:

Not only is the home situated in the most biodiverse marine environment in North America (source: Florida Oceanographic Institute), it's also located in Stuart FL, 2024 winner of the USA Today "Best Coastal Small Towns in America" rankings. (And #1 winner of the "Happiest Seaside Town in USA" award by Coastal Living Magazine!) Locals of a certain age—that remember TV's "The Andy Griffith Show"—proudly call Stuart the "Mayberry of Florida".

Birthdays on the beach
We greatly enjoyed all of the amenities of your wonderful home. Our family had toasts on the deck, relaxed on the front porch, used the paddle boards and water trike, hot tub, and our grand finale beachside fire. Situated perfectly on both the ocean and bay for maximum enjoyment.

Framily stay with Teens to Seniors!
Lifelong Floridian and yet this was our first visit to the Stuart/Hutchinson Island, this home was an exceptional stay for a group of 15 including 70 yr old grandparents, adults, teens and young adults. We celebrated NYE and were afraid our YA and teens would be bored, well, they never left the property, stayed on the beach all night, hung out by the fire pit, hot tub, the river dock fishing, paddle boarded, kayaked, biked, the house is fully loaded, has all the toys you could imagine, all you do is bring your suitcase and groceries. Being ON the beach was amazing watching the sunrise, dolphins, while also the river with sunsets, more dolphins. Shells for miles! We haven't stopped talking about our stay and are already planning our next visit. The property and managers do not disappoint.

Outstanding Attention to Details
So very pleased with this property. Every supply that could be anticipated was available to us. For those flying in, that's so important to be able to go from airport to VRBO rental and not have to worry about supplies. From kitchen items to toiletries, this rental was superb in this area. Beds were comfortable. There were so many TVs in the house and only one person in our group chose to turn hers on - the sounds and views of the ocean were entertainment enough for the rest of us. The main area of the house was perfect for our group of 8 and our golden retriever. We played endless games while listening to the waves in the evening. The sunrise walks on the beach were fabulous. My only caution would be for those with mobility issues, getting onto the beach is somewhat difficult as there are sand dunes that need to be navigated before getting onto the beach area that has more walkable sand. We were a group of 70-ish, some with mobility issues so some could not make the trek to the beach but the large lanai overlooking the beach was panoramic and so very lovely. These owners seem to have thought of everything! I will definitely consider a return visit. I already miss Restoration Sands, though I think I'd rename it to Heavenly Sands.

This is an absolutely fantastic property and due to its unique location you can experience both waterfront sunrises and sunsets. Can't say enough good things about the host and specifically Al, who made this an amazing stay. The house came with everything you could possibly need to make an incredible family vacation. Can't wait to go back!

Great Vacation with Family
House is wonderful, everything you need is included. Love the sauna and steam room. Everything was clean and full stocked. Not thrilled with the rocks in the ocean. Made it difficult if not impossible to swim. Having access to the Marriott worked out perfectly. Was able to take advantage of the beach by the Marriott and have access to the Tiki bar while we were there. All 15 of us had a wonderful vacation!

Great time
Our family stayed in August, we had a great time. When they say pack light, they mean it, as they went above and beyond with amenities and welcoming gifts. The beach side was nice, with a reef in front, some days the water was a little rough. We experienced cool sightings of turtles laying eggs at nighttime. We had an abundance of kayaks on both the ocean and riverside. . For sure we recommend staying here
