Ace In The Sand
St. Joe Beach, FL
ABOUT THE SPACE
Wake up to sweeping ocean views, stroll just steps to an uncrowded stretch of sugar-white sand, then spend the afternoon floating in your private pool before unwinding in the hot tub beneath a sky full of stars.
Ace In the Sand offers the rare combination of panoramic water views, resort-style outdoor living, and a spacious open layout designed for gathering — all tucked within the peaceful, unspoiled beauty of Florida’s Forgotten Coast. From the pool house and game-filled fun to the massive deck overlooking the Gulf, this is the kind of beach home guests return to year after year.

WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING!
We loved the Ace in the Sand! We have spent more than a decade traveling to Anna Maria, so this year we wanted to try something different. We stumbled upon Port St Joe and found this listing right away. No regrets! The house was perfect and exactly what we needed, there were TONS of linens, kitchen supplies, pool toys, an amazing view of the water, and honestly anything you could think of. Not to mention, the cost of the rental was less than half of similar options on AMI! I asked Kate for a list of her local recommendations and she took so much time to tell us where, what, and when! (Please go eat the banana pudding shake at sugar shack) Overall, we had the best time and will definitely be coming back!!
