The house was incredible and a great distance from the beach. We had a staycation and the price paid was ok, more on the pricier end. It was cozy, but the only issue would be parking. I had more than one car and it was difficult getting the other car parked overnight. Other than that, great house and kitchen. He had plenty of beach supplies and I had an amazing time.

Wonderful! Will come again! Positive: We had seafood nearby and it was amazing! The accommodations of the home were more than we expected. It was quaint and cozy and we really enjoyed ourselves. We will be renting again in the future with the family! Negative: A reminder to remove shoes outside the front door to comply with house rules would be great! Remote instructions for the TV as well.

We traveled as a group of three to IRB. We had a blast! We loved the convenient location to the beach as well as the restaurants and shop to walk too. Matthew’s place had a cooler, beach mat, chairs and a cart that made it very easy to enjoy the beach. This unit had easy parking, a cute little screened in porch to enjoy coffee in the morning and all the amenities to make us feel at home while on vacation. Matthew was responsive when it came to answering questions and gave us local recommendations- both of them were fabulous!This spot was so great - I can’t wait to book again next time I’m in town!

The property is central to all IRB has to offer. The house was clean with many amenities (you could cook a full meal if you wanted). A/C worked great (though the temp didn’t get above 85 while we were there). Very comfortable bed and couch.This house has access to a washer and dryer; however, it is shared with two other “houses”. The other folks were using it for most of our time so we didn’t actually get to use it.Only concern was on most windows, the blinds do not cover all of the window, leaving large gaps on the sides which don’t allow for total privacy.Beach provisions were much appreciated.Parking is limited to one car.

Very pleasant and welcoming beach bungalow, perfect for our 2 night getaway. Walked to beach, and restaurants for dinner. Also a very cool nature preserve through mangroves.

Hope to stay here again on next visit to IRB!

Our quick stay at Sugar Sand Bungalow #1 was outstanding. Great communication from Matthew before during and after our stay to make sure we had all the check in details ahead of time and that everything was satisfactory throughout.The property was very comfortable, clean, and fully stocked with everything you may need for your stay along with thoughtful extras such as beach chairs, towels, and cooler for use at the beach just a few blocks away. Property was easy to find and access was a breeze with private entry and keyless lock.The location was beautiful and well situated where we were able to walk to the beach as well as dinner during our stay.I would certainly recommend this stay and will likely come back again!

Great location, charming neighborhood, comfortable accommodations. We loved everything about it. There was an issue with the lights flickering and the power went out several times, but the owner said he would have an electrician in as soon as we checked out to fix it. He was accommodating and even offered to pay for our meals since we were cooking at the time, but the power went back on and we could finish cooking dinner. Just check with him to make sure that was fixed. That was the only thing I would say that wasn't stellar about our stay. Otherwise we loved it and would rent there again.

Outstanding location and comfort from a great host

Perfectly located in a cute neighborhood down the block from the beach and around the corner from a park/playground, this home is clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. There is a nice outdoor common area featuring seating, grills, and a gas firepit. Perhaps the best part of all: the host, Matthew, is very helpful, flexible, and quick to respond. He provided a high chair and porta-crib for my son's family, and was super-accommodating with all requests. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this vacation home and Matthew as a host.

The aesthetic appeal of the house and amenities provided made it a 10/10!! The house is SOO spacious and more than comfortably fit 3 people. The giant eat in kitchen was gorgeous! Everything was super close by and easy to get too. The beach was just a walk down the street and Sand Key about 10-12 mins drive! If your looking to stay on the beach, this is it!

What a find! So cozy and comfortable with an old Florida vibe. 2.5 blocks to the beach, all the beach toys you could want. Would definitely stay again. Great for an older couple like us as it was quiet, bed was comfortable, and we had easy access to great restaurants and stores. We had a small issue with the sink drain that turned out to be totally due to my ignorance! Even so, Matthew was there within 30 minutes to get us sorted.

This listing is just as it is described/shown on the website. It was SO nice to arrive and have the essentials - toilet paper, paper towels, counter spray, hand soap - provided. In addition, you will feel safe and enjoy the quietness of the neighborhood. Matthew was very helpful and even went above and beyond by adjusting our check-out time and dropping off a much needed beach umbrella. You can literally go to this place and not need anything but food! Coffee, (I highly recommend Cafe de Paris) lunch, and dinner are all technically within walking distance. Furthermore, it was so nice to have beach chairs, the umbrella, and beach towels there. Go ahead, book your stay!
