AMENITIES: When you walk in the front door of Moonmist Villa you will be captivated by the arched ceiling painted to look like the sky. The living room is charming and tropical, the sun porch/TV room is comfy and cozy and has a sleeper sofa. The kitchen is properly “beachy” with open shelves and bamboo countertops. The master bedroom with a queen bed and wicker chests is a sanctuary a la Tommy Bahama style. The second bedroom has twin beds and is bright and Floridian. The unit is fully furnished and equipped. It has TVs, VCR/DVD player, stereo system, etc. The community fishing pier is at the end of the street and the heated pool is around the corner. Walk across the street to miles of white sugar-sand beach. Walk (or drive) ½ mile to quaint beach pubs and convenience stores. We can arrange to have “start-up” groceries on hand – inquire for details. (Wouldn’t it be nice to arrive to find a bottle of bubbly chilled and brie and crackers waiting?)
