Decorated with precision, this home combines comfort and style for an idyllic island retreat. Come and make the memories that last a lifetime.
Interior
Whispering Waves offers a spacious, open layout with high ceilings and large windows throughout. On Level 2 the fully equipped kitchen, with seating for six at the counter, is perfect for gathering, while the dining area seats eight and offers sunset views. The living room includes a large sectional, a fireplace for cooler days, and a TV for movie nights.

On Level 1, the main suite features a king bed, sitting area, walk-in closet, and private en-suite. This bedroom opens to a large private deck with Gulf views—a perfect spot to relax in the breeze. Two additional bedrooms—each with a lower queen bed and 2 high twin XL beds with ladders—share a full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. A washer and dryer on this floor add convenience.
Exterior
Whispering Waves’ bright aqua exterior sets the tone for a relaxing island stay. The main deck offers a BBQ, seating area, and dining table, ideal for enjoying meals with a Gulf view. The three additional decks off the bedrooms allow for sun, shade and time to just sit back and relax in the breeze.
Neighborhood
