As of September 2026Welcome to 'Stay Salty', a beautifully updated five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home located on a highly sought-after corner lot in the WaterColor community.

The main-level primary suite offers a spa-style bath, while upstairs includes additional king and queen suites, a double-queen room, a twin bunk nook, and a secondary living area with a private balcony.
Outdoor spaces include a screened patio with grill, covered front porch, upper balcony, and expansive side deck surrounded by mature landscaping. The home includes a garage suitable for the golf cart or a small vehicle, plus driveway parking for two vehicles.
Rental performance is exceptional, producing $130,508.05 in 2024, $158,259.47 for 2025, and $210,143 for 2026 (all gross revenue numbers) with new reservations coming in daily and lots of owner use! Over 65 five-star reviews across all OTA's and a 12% repeat guest rate year-to-date highlight its proven appeal.
