The Stay
Amenities
Berry House is a family estate first and a place to stay second. These are the parts of it that are yours during your visit.
Your Space
The apartment is private for the length of your stay.
Private guest apartment
The upstairs apartment has its own entrance off the patio stairs, so you come and go without passing through anyone else's rooms.
Arrival & check-inKitchen & dining
A full kitchen for real cooking and a table to eat at — enough for a slow breakfast or a long dinner in.
Kitchen guideAir conditioning & fans
A Nest thermostat by the door and ceiling fans throughout, which is the combination that works best in Florida air.

A guest network covering the apartment, the patio and most of the pool terrace — comfortable for video calls and streaming.

A rectangular pool with a slide, loungers and striped umbrellas on the stone terrace. The slide runs to a set schedule in summer.
