The Ultimate Dune is just what you're looking for. It's an oceanfront bungalow on the wide side of the island with tons of space for your friends and family. Dune features its own private beachfront deck with a boardwalk down to the beach. The home came under new ownership in 2021 and has undergone tons of upgrades since then.
LIVING SPACES
Since Dune was a duplex in the past, there are two living rooms. Each one has intelligent TVs equipped with Roku for streaming your favorite content. There's a PS4 and a Wii with games for rainy days too. Each side of the home also has a dining space for morning coffee, family feasts, and game nights. There is only one kitchen now and you have full access to both sides during your stay. You won't have to share with any other events. Dune has a comfortable mix of midcentury pieces and up-cycled beachy furnishings. 'Ultimately' we tried to give this one-level home a modern take on a late 60s surf shack.
BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS
There are five bedrooms, each with their own unique styling:
1. West queen suite: one queen, a modest ensuite bathroom with modest shower, and TV
2. West double: a twin bed and pullout trundle and no TV
3. West king: one king bed, funky plant wallpaper, and TV
4. East queen suite: one queen bed, huge ensuite bathroom with a modest shower, and TV
5. East king: one king bed and TV
There is one full bathroom with a tub for kids on the west side and another full bathroom with a walk in shower on the east side hallway.
