Nettles Island Beach Retreat . Golf Cart . Kayak . Private Beach Access

The moment you drive through the gates of Nettles Island, you feel it — you're on vacation.

Step inside Lot 704 and the feeling stays. Natural light pours through the windows —wooden blind shades throughout let you control the light perfectly. The nautical décor is calm and intentional. The living and dining areas flow together so everyone stays connected — kids, partners, friends, grandparents. Nobody gets left out.

Your days here look something like this.

Morning coffee before anyone else wakes up. Then the golf cart — included with your stay — to cruise Nettles Boulevard, drop the kids at mini golf or pickleball, or head straight to the private beach. The community pool and hot tub are steps away. When the mood strikes, take the kayak out on the water — life vests are provided. Grill something good in the evening. Play board games when the sun goes down.

Nettles Island is a private gated community on the Atlantic coast of Jensen Beach, Florida. Peaceful, safe, and full of things to do without ever leaving. Restaurants, shops, and everything Jensen Beach offers are just minutes away by golf cart.

What's included:
— Golf cart (operators must be 18+ with valid photo ID)
— Kayak with life vests
— BBQ grill and outdoor dining area
— Community pool and hot tub access
— Private beach access
— Pickleball courts, mini golf, tennis courts, marina, fishing areas
— Extremely fast Wi-Fi
— Fully equipped kitchen
— Washer and dryer in unit
— Smart lock for easy self check-in

This home is for families looking for a real Florida vacation where everyone has something to do. For couples ready to disconnect from everything. For groups of friends who want the beach, the fun, and the comfort of a real home — not a hotel room.

We're responsive, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making your stay exceptional.

Come as guests. Leave as regulars.

The house was great. The amenities were excellent although the island pool was closed for maintenance while we were there. Thankfully there is a 2nd pool on the ocean side that was open. We used the mini golf, shuffleboard, sand pit area for small children and hot tubs. My suggestion to the owner/manager is to improve communications. I’ve stayed at many rental homes for vacation. Most will provide a booklet with house rules, amenities information, check out procedures, WiFi info etc. Info about where to find things in the house. It could make it easier. Instead I had to reach out for information. I also couldn’t get a response to a question on the day I was checking in. I understand it was Easter Sunday so I was not expecting an immediate response but I received no response over the course of the entire day. Other than that, it was perfect and we enjoyed our stay!

All I can mentioned is totally positive on this property, good location, owner was always available. Interior very nice, decoration, spacious, we were 3 adults and our two kids. We usually go to this place multiple times during the summer, I only have one recommendation, Owner's Golf Cart needs an upgrade on batteries. I rated it 99.9%.

It’s beautifully furnished, perfectly laid out. It was just my husband and myself but could comfortable accommodate additionally guests. For just the 2 of us we were in heaven. Everything was exceptionally clean, new kitchen appliances, nice big tv in master room. The golf cart was a fun extra. The size of the master, the master bath and living room/kitchen area were all superb. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back!
