Gemini Beach: 7 BR/4.5BA FL Beach House on 2 beaches. Dock + Heated Pool!

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, 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 GEMINI BEACH:

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

Gemini is the astrological sign represented by "twins", so SE Florida locals aptly call this spot "Gemini Beach", for its two picture-perfect beaches (your own private beach on the ocean, plus a second private beach on the river).

This 5-star home began welcoming its first guests in August 2020. It sits directly atop the ocean dune, a literal stone's throw from the Atlantic Ocean surf. 7 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, heated swimming pool, & private dockside riverfront paradise.

Margaritaville! Relax in your own "Jimmy Buffet"-style beachside bungalow, with 3 King Bedroom Suites, each with private en-suite baths. The house is packed with fun features, stocked to the nines, & complete with everything you need for a turnkey beach-house vacation. Gemini Beach will delight everyone in your family or group, across all ages.

Boasting water views from every window, Gemini is a historical landmark: Built to last forever & weather even the worst hurricanes, it was the first home constructed in the area. The fortress is the only area home to survive every major hurricane in living memory. The interior was fully renovated in Summer 2020 with all-new appliances & furnishings, while the exterior's historic & rustic character has been carefully preserved.

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: Gemini is rented only to one party at a time; you will not be sharing the premises with strangers or unknown travelers.

Situated on a private beach in a quiet residential area, there are no condos, high rises or large public beaches for miles. (No crowds, just a beach all to yourself & your group). The ocean is right off your back porch. And across the street is your own 100-foot-long private dock on the Indian River, offering some of the best fishing in the world, & stocked with all your favorite water toys (complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, aqua cycle, fishing poles & tackle & more)

Own a boat? Bring it! Moor it at your own private dock, & there's even room to park your trailer. (Boat ramp just 1 mile away). RV? Room for that too! There's so much parking—on both sides of the street—there's room for multiple RVs & boats!

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: Gemini Beach 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.

(Note: Due to construction delays, some of the home's first reservations were given a free upgrade to nearby "Nirvana Shores", ID# 7061067)



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".

Planning a modest event or small gathering at the home? Or is your rental in association with an event held at a nearby venue? We'd love to help!

A TREASURE CHEST OF DELIGHT:

The home sits in the middle of the "Treasure Coast". To this very day, gold doubloons, pieces of eight & other Spanish treasure still wash up along Hutchinson Island, after big storms. (Complimentary beach-comber metal-detectors and instructions are provided.)

Perfect Beach Vacation!
It is so close to the ocean. We loved having our morning coffee and evening drinks just watching the ocean on the front porch. Saw the dolphins every day. Pool on both sides was amazing! Our guys fished from the dock on the river side every day! Master bedrooms were on the main level which was so good for us seniors. Gemini Beach was so perfect!

Most amazing vacation property
No words to describe how this property exceeded any expectation we had coming in for our family vacation! They have thought of everything and have everything and anything you could think of, may have forgotten or simply didn’t think of. Steps from the ocean, private river front and dock. Basically, it was a small piece of heaven perfect for our family vacation! 1,000/10 rating. We will be going back!

Family vacation with a variety of ages to entertain
We usually stay in Fort Myers Beach, however 2 years ago our condo was destroyed. We had to fond something quick last year and we stayed up near the pan handle. It was too cold. This year, do to some changes our trip was booked last minute but we were always going to be going. We found availability at the MacArthur property and boy did it exceed our expectations. From every cute little detail of the property to all the things you "may forget". Gemini Beach House had it covered. Swim diapers, sun screen, a few waters to get you started. A welcoming basket. Beach towels galore. You have it at your home, theyve got it there. Wonderful, comfy feel.

Wonderful Retreat
We booked this house for a work retreat. The house was clean and well-stocked. Most of the bedrooms were on the main floor and the large bunk room was upstairs with an amazing panoramic view. The bedding was clean and comfortable and there were more than enough towels and dinnerware for everyone. My only regret was that we did not have time to use the water toys/equipment because of our meetings. Communication was prompt and clear. Check out was a breeze.

Family Vacay
Our family of 8 adults and 3 children (one infant) very much enjoyed this property. When they say it is fully stocked, they mean it. We had everything we needed plus surprise treasures and outstanding outdoor equipment. The ocean views were wonderful but the river/beach access with all the amenities was prize-winking for relaxing fun for all ages.

A fun beach house
My family had a great time at this beach house! The house is located on two bodies of water, ocean on one side and intercostal/river on the other side. The view was stunning!. We were welcomed by a nice basket filled with the beach necessities and snacks. That was very thoughtful. I’ve never been to a rental place that was well stocked as this house was I mean they thought of everything! Everything you need for a baby and your fur fam was there. They also had all the equipment for water activities including kayaks, snorkel gears, boards and more. The kitchen was fully stocked including all the condiments and spices. It felt like I was in my own kitchen. All of us loved having a separate ice maker too. Al, the property manager responded quickly to all of my questions and was very informative. He gave us great suggestions on places to eat, where to get groceries and fun things to do. The beach was beautiful but it was very rocky and slippery which made it difficult to get into the water even with water shoes. I would also use a bug spray if it is not breezy to avoid getting noseeum bites. Everyone agreed that this place had the best checkout procedures! It was so nice to simply gather your stuff and leave without worrying about all the things we have to do before leaving. We were told that their cleaning crew will take care of everything. This is a great place for a family to enjoy!
