Idle Hours - Pet Friendly! Gulf Front in Dune Allen Beach

- Gulf front
- Pet friendly
- Cozy beach cottage
- Near shops and restaurants
*7 night minimum (Saturday to Saturday)

Idle Hours is the quintessential gulf front getaway located in beautiful Dune Allen Beach. If walls could talk, I’m sure this classic, 1950’s old Florida beach cottage could write a novel . . .

This 2 bedroom, 1 bath super cozy home with an awesome Palapa Hut will make you smile the moment you arrive. Lovingly decorated and pet friendly, Idle Hours is perfect for a small family, a couple, or anyone who appreciates classic 1950’s Florida architecture, and with its own private boardwalk to the beach, you’ll feel as though you’re on your own private island.

After enjoying a long, luxurious day on the beach, and savoring one of our stunning sunsets, venture out to one of our locally owned restaurants for scrumptious, fresh seafood. When you return to your classic cottage on the beach, you might be reminded of “Gidge and her beloved Moondoggie". There’s even a DVD player, so why not pop a movie in?

Idle Hours is a true nostalgic gem, and loved by all. Some things truly do get better with age.

There is a $200 non-refundable pet fee.
