CORAL COTTAGE
Coral Cottage is a classic 1950’s Florida beachside community cottage home with a cool retro Florida feel (terrazzo floors and funky 1950’s color bathroom tiles), which has been updated and refreshed with stylish and comfortable modern touches to create a cozy vintage-meets-modern, east-meets-west, beachy vibe. It is the third closest home to the beautiful tropical lifeguarded white sand beaches and sparkling waters at Vero Beach's acclaimed South Beach Park!
The home is fun for family members of all ages and generations. While the home is certainly no mansion, Coral Cottage offers several good size spaces for everyone to gather together to eat, drink or play, and separate indoor and outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy.
Coral Cottage has 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and plenty of living space with large open kitchen adjoining the large family room and next to the dining and living rooms. The home offers easy beach access just steps from the front door. Take the beach chairs and umbrellas on the beach cart provided at Coral Cottage, walk across the street and onto the boardwalk through the mangroves to the beautiful white sand beaches at South Beach Park!

There are steps that you can take to help us protect these magnificent creatures. During Turtle Nesting Season (March 1st to October 31st): never approach nesting or hatching turtles, never walk on or disturb turtle nests (they look like sand mounds and are often taped off and labeled with orange tape), and use only red light flashlights if walking on the beach at night.
