One of the best ways to escape the winter cold is to
rent a luxury home in Florida. From Miami and Fort Lauderdale to Siesta Key and Kissimmee, this US State has a lot of amazing real estate to offer. Naturally, the area's hot climates make it the go-to winter destination, but many homes here offer more than that. Some of our finest luxury rentals on this list boast the most scenic waterfront views, and since they’re near the sea or lakes, they also offer the warmest sunshine and relaxing breezes.
Waterfront Oasis
If you think that this list will be filled with seaside houses and oceanfront luxury apartments in Florida, think again! While those are undeniably great real estate, the lakeside homes here are just as noteworthy too. Take this Waterfront Oasis in the picturesque Key Colony Beach neighborhood, for example. With a house as big as a mansion and a luxurious private pool on the estate, you couldn't have asked for a better place to escape the winter cold. Even when the season lowers the temperature a bit, the heated pool and the lush greeneries still uphold the rental's tropical appeal.
Castaway Key
Sometimes, it's not enough to just travel to Florida or
move to Miami to escape the winter cold. The place you retreat to has to have the right ambiance and look to it too. This dreamy Castaway Key four-bedroom rental is a great example. The house itself is a modern mansion of a home with all sorts of amazing amenities. But the true gem of the place is the private pool. Designed to look like a cove on a beach in the Caribbean, it truly takes you to a whole new world. You'd sooner forget that it was still winter when you went here.
Hidden Paradise
“Hidden Paradise” is the perfect name for this two-bedroom home in Longboat Key. Tucked away in one of the more underrated towns in Florida and quieter edges of the area, this seaside luxury rental will truly whisk you away from the winter cold. The season and all the hassles it brings will seem like a world away from here, especially with the bright sunshine and salty sea breezes. The estate itself is not exactly by the sea, but it's near enough that you can feel the ocean the moment you step outside or open a window.
Vitamin Sea
This three-bedroom Vitamin Sea rental is another amazing waterfront home you can have all to yourself when you spend winter in Florida. Located in the seaside town of Siesta Key, it's only a hop and a skip away from the stunning shoreline and its glistening waters. The sun shines so brightly here too, that you'd need to put on layers of sunscreen to protect your skin. And instead of shoveling snow, you get to splash around the beach, take in the salty sea air, and walk amidst the warmth of the Floridian coast.
Charming Delightful
This three-bedroom villa along the Sarasota coast is truly charming and delightful. While it's not exactly the biggest rental on this list, it still has enough space for the entire family to keep warm away from the more snow-laden parts of the US. It also has a homely feel to it, almost as if you're back at your grandmother's home relaxing as she bakes you cookies. Though here, you're sure to spend your time hanging out by the private pool instead. Or if you prefer, you can head over to the beach and get the best tan ever!
Florida Retreat Near Lakewood
In this lush Florida Retreat near Lakewood, you'd find it hard to decide whether to spend time indoors or outside. Naturally, you traveled all the way to Florida to get some much-needed sunshine. True enough, this place has that in abundance. You can hang out by the lake or play with the kids out in the yard. At the same time, you can't deny that the cozy appeal of the place will have you relaxing all day long inside. Watch TV in the big living room or take a relaxing nap in any of the big bedrooms. What's not to love?
Waterfront Bungalow
Finally, there's this amazing Waterfront Bungalow in Fort Lauderdale. Set by the lake, you can go boating every time you want, something you simply can't do if you stay in a snowy city for winter. It may seem a bit small at first, but rest assured that this three-bedroom home has enough space for the entire family. More than that, it even has enough space for a private pool! If you're up for a swim and a spot of sunbathing, you can just step outside and have the time of your life!
