We have stayed at many luxury vacation homes across the US and this was by far the most well-appointed, clean and beautiful home we have ever stayed in. We hope to come back soon!” - Riley “The pictures do not do this property justice. Every room was beautifully decorated and designed for comfort. Every deck and outdoor area was well thought out. The ocean views can not be beat. The location was ideal-the surrounding area is quiet but close enough to area stores and restaurants. We travel often and this was by far one of the best houses we have stayed in.” - Tina “If you're looking to escape for a few days to a private beachside retreat with luscious accommodations, you'd be hard-pressed to find something better than the Salty Fig.” - Milan "My new home away from home. The house is more beautiful than the pictures. It felt like the perfect escape from reality. Private beach and everything you could need. No need to even leave the house. Planning on going back yearly!" - Robyn ☆☆ BEDROOMS ☆☆ Fall asleep to the sounds of waves crashing against the shore.

Turtle Season: Sea turtle nesting season is from March 1st through October 31st. During this time, you can watch sea turtles nest and hatch on the shorts of Vero Beach! Quiet, dark beaches allow them to lay their eggs uninterrupted. They also give baby sea turtles the best chance of returning to the ocean soon after hatching. The most common sea turtles to nest are Loggerheads, Green Turtles and Leatherbacks. If you're taking a walk at night, please use provided red flashlights since sea turtles are less disturbed by long wavelength lights. Also, please remember to dim the home lights at night. Window shades on the 3rd floor must be lowered at night. Walking tours in the area are also available via "Friends of Sebastian Inlet State Park". Lights: Indian River County Sea Turtle nesting regulations require that no lights be visible from the beach. At night, please limit light use and dim lights on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Window shades must be lowered on the 3rd floor at night. No-See-Ums: On days when there is little to no breeze (particularly in the early morning hours and at dusk), there may be sand flies (aka "no see-ums"). There bites can lead to itchiness which may persist for multiple days. When going outside at these times, please wear long sleeves, shoes and socks. You can also rub vaseline on your skin before going out to help mitigate. Mosquito / bug sprays do not seem to work. Dock: You are welcome to use the dock located across A1A which is part of the property. The riverside is perfect for paddle boarding, fishing and sunset viewing. Please, no child under the age of 15 is allowed to cross A1A without parental/adult supervision. Beach-Access: The beach access walkway is shared with our neighbors.
