PETS - DOGS welcome with prior approval. Refundable deposit determined by weight, size, to be discussed in advance. Proof of all vaccinations please. Leash to be used off property and, please, clean up after pets regardless of location. Note: I've been told repeatedly there are numerous homeowners who allow pets but charge outrageous fees - and keep a portion of those monies regardless. I refuse to 'punish' dog lovers who want to travel with their best friend(s) so, although my pet fee may be goverened by circumstances, it IS refundable...and I've YET to have to keep it...pet owners are the BEST guests!

I have been to the Destin/Santa Rosa area every year for at least the past 10 years. I have stayed at many places, and Europa was, by far, my favorite place to stay. I stayed for 2 and a half weeks. Pat was a pleasure to do business with and was very accomodating to my situation and requests. I was unsure of the exact location until I got there. It was perfect and very close to the beach as I was hoping! Europa had everything that you could ask for and the pool was beautiful. I brought both of my dogs, and I think they loved it just as much as I did! I highly recommend renting this place! It was beautifu and unique! I loved the lighting and contemporary decor! Thank you, Pat, for opening your home to us! We WILL be back!Recommended for: Age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

Close to the gorgeous white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico and within minutes of dining at some of30-A’s finest restaurants, we were thrilled to call Europa home for a week! We had an absolutely perfect Fall vacation. Pat and Lee, thank you so much for sharing Europa with us – your home is such a treasure! If anyone is looking for an upscale beach vacation experience, then this is the place for you! We enjoyed the gorgeous décor (loved the Red Door Powder Room), gourmet kitchen, the luxurious master suite, the bar, the list goes on and on. Oh, and let’s not forget the pool and deck! Mike and I, along with the Z dog had such a relaxing time at Europa. The water bowl and treats were all ready for the Z dog when we got there, so he made himself right at home. Loved our stay, definitely look forward to our next trip to Europa! We also love staying at Mellow Yellow - when the nephew and family come to stay and play at the beach!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
Owner response: Kathy, Mike and the Z Dog = Beach Family members who warm my heart! All these years - and never a face-to-face meeting -yett you truly DO feel like family! Thanks so much for making both Europa and Mellow Yellow part of your time on the spectacular 30-A...such wonderful, thoughtful people...I'm the lucky one!

Europa: This escape from mundane living has everything you might need to cook, grill, relax, or entertain yourself during your stay. I breathe a sigh of relief as soon as I arrive. Sitting out back by the pool, relaxing in my room, sitting down to eat; it doesn't matter where I am at Europa, my eyes see just the perfect touch of decor, I notice something that pleases my eye, I notice that everything is just as it should be! It's like being home, yet I don't have to DO anything! ............... AND I am just a couple minutes from wonderful restaurants (Stinky's and Goatfeathers) and the beach! I don't have to deal with the traffic of Hywy 98. OR I can stay in and prepare something yummy, because it's so nice here at Europa, and everything I need is here. My sisters and I have chosen Europa for our girls' getaway....but now the husbands want to come, too! We decided that that's ok, because here we have enough room to go to our "corners", and not feel crowded! (and I know people bring their pets here, but you would NEVER know it! Everything is wonderfully clean, like-new clean!) I have stayed here several times, and hope to again on the future. Thank you, Pat, for creating such a nice place to come home to!Recommended for: Age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

We have stayed at Europa multiple times and it's always such a treat! We have two dogs that love going to the beach as much as we do. It's a great space - large, clean, conveniently located on 30-A and the owner is wonderful as well. Highly recommend!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

We love our children, but sometimes you need a break, and this was the first one we had in years! Wow! What an amazing home. Which is where we felt like we were. Except we don't have a private pool or live anywhere near the beach. Marble floors were perfectly cool for the dogs even in the heat of June. Private master suite was gorgeous. The whole place felt a bit like a suite at the Bellagio. Owner Pat was easy to work with even as she was traveling the world. Thanks again Pat. We will be checking out your other rentals too. Let us know when the Bahamas house is finished. Thanksgiving? TomRecommended for: Romantic getaway, pet owners.

My husband and our Golden Retriever had a wonderful time at Europa this past week!! We loved the house and all it's amenities. The pool was wonderful and the fenced in backyard allowed our doggie to roam freely on the property. Pat thinks of everything and the house is super clean and inviting. We have never stayed in the Santa Rosa Beach area, but it has quickly become our favorite local on 30-A and we plan on coming back and staying at Europa in the near future. Thanks again Pat for sharing this special place with us!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thank you! Am so pleased Europa suited your requirements! Hope to have you return and become Beach Family!

Pat, Thank you for sharing Europa with us! You are so accommodating for people traveling with dogs. Buzz loved the bed that was waiting for him and we had to go buy him more of the treats you left him because he munched them down in a hurry. Loved the convenient location and the back yard is wonderful! Very nice home, we really enjoyed our stay.Recommended for: Pet owners.

Pat, Just wanted to drop you a note to say thanks for sharing Europa with Melanie and me. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and found everything to be just as nice as we could expect.

Owner response: Well thank you! Am delighted it was Europa you included in your plans ~ and that your four-footed babies were comfy too! Would love to have you return and become "Beach Family" . All the best...Woof! Pat

2009 we stay at Mellow Yellow "loved it" but in 2010 we wanted a home with a fenced in yard for our 4 legged children :) Sooo we chose Europa.... not just because of the pool or fenced yard but the owner... Pat you made us feel like we are family and Europa was everything and more but you made it special!!!! So now we book our 2011 trip with you......Many Thanks :)Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
Owner response: Why, thank you! You all are Beach Family to the core and I so appreciate you wanting to be! Gracious thanks for such lovely commentary.
