Where is the gulf side beach access? Can you walk straight across the street or do you have to use the west end public beach?
Adam says
You can walk right across the street down Tovar Ct for easy beach access. Thanks! DIBR
debra steele says
how do you access the beach at the gulf….. cut through the houses or where
Adam says
You can’t walk between houses, but that’s not a problem because you have a close access point right across the street from you via Tovar Ct. Thank you!

Is the damage waiver refundable?
Adam says
The damage waiver is non-refundable. You can elect to pay a $500 damage deposit instead of a waiver though and that is refundable.

Lovely house, with room to spread out - a few updates needed
We have stayed in this house three times, most recently in May 2024. Love the place.
Loads of room to spread out. Large master bedroom with en-suite bath, that includes separate bathtub and large shower.
Two additional bedrooms on the main-floor share a bathroom.
Fabulous large kitchen with well thought out center island for food prep and serving. Large table with room for your whole crowd to sit down together for meals. Large screen TV and an enormous very comfortable sectional sofa.
Upstairs there is a bunk room, with adjacent bathroom. The upstairs level includes a pool-table and second living room.
The house is on the bayside, with about a 100 yard walk down to the shoreline. Or you can walk about the same distance over to the gulf side of the island
A few things are in need of updating.
Recently a house went up next door to the west. The back deck of that house looks directly onto the kitchen/dining room of Salty Seahorse. The west facing windows of Salty Seahorse have no blinds, drapes or other window coverings. This makes for uncomfortable views between the two neighboring houses and (even worse) for blinding/glaring setting sun which makes it extremely uncomfortable to use the dining table around sunset.
The dining table is also in need of refinishing or replacement as the finish has gone sticky, and no amount of washing or cleaning will improve the situation. I rather suspect this is a function of the brutal glaring sunlight beating down on the table, damaging the varnish.
The master bedroom could use some better drapes or blinds, as the existing window coverings do not effectively darken the room once the sun rises in the morning. Late sleepers may find the room too light in the morning.
Despite these concerns, this house is a family favorite, and we will be back again.
