ABOUT XANADU:

Xanadu: An idyllic, exotic, or luxurious place (Webster's Dictionary).

Xanadu is a luxury 12+BR/6BA ocean-to-river beachfront palace, literally fewer than 10 steps away from the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Featuring a private elevator, private dock, heated oceanfront plunge pool / hot tub, heated swimming pool (on the riverside), 5-hole miniature-golf putting green, & so much more!

Perched high atop an oceanfront sand dune, the home is so close to the ocean that a child can toss a tennis ball into the water, from Xanadu's large oceanfront deck. And with 12+ bedrooms, 6 bathrooms (including 4 en-suite bathrooms), this enormous 4-story retreat is packed with features to delight everyone in your family or group, across all ages. Xanadu includes a double-oven oceanfront chef's kitchen, top-floor observation deck with water views for miles, & more. (And did we mention the oceanfront plunge pool / hot tub, plus heated swimming pool on the riverside )

Wear your t-shirt, shorts & flip-flops to the airport, because that's all you need 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! (We stock heavy, so you can travel light.)

At rates starting at less than $100 per night per bedroom, enjoy 5-star luxury amenities and accommodations at an affordable price (the proverbial champagne on a beer budget!) Note: Xanadu is rented only to one party at a time; you will not be sharing the premises with strangers or unknown travelers.

The Atlantic Ocean is right off your back porch. And right across the street is your own 250-foot-long deep-water private dock on the Indian River, offering some of the best fishing in the world, & stocked with all your favorite water toys (complimentary, of course).

Own a boat Bring it! Moor it at your own private dock, and there's even room to park your trailer. (Boat ramp is just 1 mile away). RV Room for that too!

About BHIP: Xanadu 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.



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)

EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS:

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! Event-related reservations are approved on a case-by-case basis. Please note that due to the pristine, delicate barrier-island environment, special restrictions may apply (COVID-19 restrictions may also apply).

Important: Please inquire about your event BEFORE booking (to avoid paying cancellation fee).



MORE THAN 16 ADULTS Xanadu might be a tight fit. Please inquire before booking.



Nervous about alligators Don't be! They don't exist in this part of Florida. (Gators can't survive near the beach in saltwater environments; they live only inland, where there is fresh water.)



HELP PRESERVE OUR PRISTINE AREA

The river is considered among the most biologically rich & environmentally sensitive estuary in North America.

Help preserve our area:

* Don't approach dolphins, sea turtles & manatees (often seen near the end of the dock). These are protected species. The offshore marine patrol prosecutes aggressively.

* Please clean up after a successful day fishing. Discard all hooks, line & litter.



WHEELCHAIR & MOTION-IMPAIRED ACCESS:

Xanadu has a private elevator that connects the first 3 floors—from the garage level to the bedroom level. It does not reach 4th FL.

    It is a beautiful house that accommodated my entire family of 19 for my mother’s 90th birthday party. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to prepare meals. The outdoor area on the river side of the road was loaded with kayaks, paddle boards, pool, putting area along with all the fishing gear needed. Snorkeling for everyone. Highly recommended.

    Loved our stay at Xanadu. So spacious and comfortable for our large family crowd. Had all the necessary space for kids aged 2-8 and all the other adults family members. Great location right on the ocean. So many seashells that the kids loved hunting for. Many memories formed here.Communication with Al, the property manager, was excellent. Always so responsive. The home was stocked with more than enough necessities. Thank you for a wonderful time at Xanadu!

    Staying in one of Al's properties never disappoints and our stay in Xanadu was no exception. Al's hosting is simply second to none and the property and amenites were very welcoming. The weather was crappy for the entire week of our stay but we were still able to enjoy worthwhile time together in the house and made many great memories playing games and enjoying the hot tub. The house was scrupulously clean and everything worked and was well maintained. The beach view is amazing at this property and we enjoyed watching the high surf and a few surfers attempting to master the waves. The outdoor area over by the river is really nice and very well stocked with a variety of fun activities. We enjoyed them the last few days when we could finally get out of the house. The fire ring in the cool evening was a lovely gathering spot. We made many great memories and would definitely return to this property again. Thank you Al from all of us!

    Very impressive home in an exquisite location. Really the only things one needs to bring is their food, drink and clothes. Everything else is provided to satisfy most anything one is interested in doing, from the youngest to the oldest. (That would be me 70) everyone had a simply marvelous time. No complaints at all.

The location is also magnificent. My only feedback is some of the beds could be replaced with more comfortable ones and the stove needs to be upgraded. With that said, our stay was fabulous.
