"Doodlebug" West Indies Style, The Beach is 150 yards from Home!
Location: Villas at Sunset Beach, Seacrest, Beaches of South Walton, Florida North West, Florida, USA (Next to Rosemary and Alys Beach - 20 Mi Destin!) View Map
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths (Sleeps 6)
This is an exclusive area with a palm tree lined boulevard that leads to the white sand beaches. Play on the beach and then walk up the boardwalk and take a nice swim at the pool overlooking the emerald coast. The resort atmosphere offers a private and elegant experience. Our 2002 beach home has three bedrooms, and three baths with a large covered deck off of one of the upstairs bedrooms.
No surprises! It's clean and well designed. There are two queen beds and two twin beds. It's newly painted with tropical colors and furnished with most everything a home has to offer, including a new 32" plasma television in the living room. Call me if everything is not just right. I want you to enjoy our home and come back again. A non-smoking, no pets home.
