His novels and poems looked at jazz, travel, sexulity, Buddhism, Catholicism, drugs, alcoholism, racism, poverty... His beatnik writings were rejected by the conservative middle class in the 1960s. His estate was valued $91 when he died in 1969 & he left it all to his mother. Years of legal battles followed after her death in 1973, and in 2020, Ken Burchenal, a local Kerouac fan, purchased it and turned it into a nonprofit arts center & vacation rental. For a $100 donation, you can book a private tour of this 3 bedroom midcentury home, which has been preserved exactly as the writer left it. On weekends, the house is often the venue for poetry and book readings, Saturday night concerts and a host of other events. If you'd like to drink at one of Kerouac's haunts, visit the local Flamingo Sports Bar, which has a mural on the wall of Kerouac shooting pool and still looks a lot like it did back when he used to frequent it.

For each unit you can fit 3 cars. Fully stocked with beach towels. Lovely kitchen and living room space. We loved that the beach was directly across the street from our villas. 30 second walk to the beach. We spent alot of time in the pool that was provided. We used the outside grill almost every night. Such a lovely, cozy stay. We already rebooked for next labor day 2021 *there isn't any one on site. You let yourself in the room with a passcode. You have to text or call for assistance.

I wished I could take them home with me! In the center of the property is a sparkling clean pool and even a deck box filled with toys and floats for the kids. That courtyard area also contains several propane BBQs and nice patio tables. We had many large family meals in the courtyard and used the BBQs. Directly across the street is the beach. We spent many hours walking the beach, collecting shells and swimming. Every evening we would go to the beach to watch the sunset. The property is located close to John's Pass, where we spent time shopping, dining at restaurants, riding wave runners, and parasailing. Our entire extended family loved this location so much that we plan to meet back there again next year. Hopefully, we will become part of the "regulars" who vacation at Blue Waters each and every year!

Dalton provided expert commentary about the area, even pointing out a few celebrity homes and yachts along the way. It was a gorgeous ride over to Shell Key, and we even saw a few dolphins along the way. Once on the island, we had about 45-50 minutes to explore the beaches and do a little snorkeling and shell-hunting. The island is aptly named, with rows and piles of shells along its white, sandy beaches. The water was warm and perfect for swimming. Soon enough we were back on board and heading back to the harbor. And that's when the magic happened: dolphins! Following along in our wake, and no doubt attracted to the enthusiastic squeals of one of our dolphin-loving fellow passengers, the dolphins put on quite a show. Even Dalton, who I assume sees a LOT of dolphins, was impressed by how long they followed in our wake and performed jumps and flips for us. It was truly one of the most remarkable experiences of my life! Thank you Dalton and Island Ferry for an amazing and memorable tour and one of the true highlights of our vacation!

Quaint, cozy and clean best describes Upham Beach Inn. Located just steps from Gulf Blvd and a couple blocks from the beach, this inn places you in the heart of the action at SPB. The husband-wife owners are very service-oriented and it is obvious that a lot of TLC has gone into this little resort. I stayed here for over a week in early January (I was moving from another state and needed a place to camp til I found an apt) and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Everything about Upham Beach Inn was warm and inviting. read more

But after they had my full payment, I became the "invisible man". I could not, for the life of me, get them to solve a simple problem: they had lost the unit's key-fob that works the automatic gate to enter the condo parking lot and, instead of simply paying the condo manager $50 to replace it for me, they repeatedly ignored my phone calls to them and did nothing; after two weeks I went to their office to demand they do something; so they sent a realtor to my unit and this woman literally searched my living room by turning over papers and décor believing it was hiding somewhere. Incredibly, I heard nothing more from the realty office, at which point I realized they have zero customer-service skills. I was completely frustrated so I learned who the owner was and contacted him; he promptly authorized the condo manager to issue me a key-fob and the problem was solved. By the way, this was a three-month snowbird rental that cost me five figures so this was not any low-dollar transaction; for the money I paid I should have received VIP service but instead got the bum's-rush. I will definitely never rent any property from Beach Time Realty again.
