Our beach house is in a prime location less than 98 steps away from almost one mile of sugar white sand at Carillon Beach. No need to tolerate the Seaside traffic or cross 30A to get to the beach when you have all of the privacy and security of Carillon with the conveniences of a vibrant gated resort community.

Carillon, located just beyond the east end of 30-A, is a gated ommunity of single-family homes located within steps to Carillon Beach, Downtown Carillon, Lake Powell and bicycle paths that will take you along the adorable beach communities of Rosemary, Seaside, and Seagrove, and several state parks. There are plenty of amenities at Carillon; including three pools (one heated, one gulf front), beach club, two tennis courts, kiddie pool, basketball court, bicycle rental and, of course, plenty of beach front to enjoy. Enjoy live music at "Grooving on the Green" during summer, or listen to the music of the Gulf right out your front door. Carillon Beach Chair Service is provided (March 1- October 15) for your pleasure which includes two chaise lounge chairs and a large beach umbrella. Pier Park, the Emerald's Coast newest desination shopping/theater/resturant complex, is just a 10 minute drive away. See Links below for more information. Getting to Once Upon A Time is now even easier with the opening of our new airport, Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP) in 2011.

Start and end your day sipping your favorite beverage on the third floor tower deck knowing sunrises and sunsets only look this way at the beach. This tropical beach home is brimming with special touches throughout; granite countertops from South Africa, Italian limestone floors and walls in the bathrooms, European satin-nickel fixtures, Australian cypress hardwood floors throughout and private porches off each bedroom and main living area.

Decorated in West Indian style, this beach house includes all the comforts of home including first-class furnishings, a TV in each bedroom and for those of you who must "work" while on vacation, you will appreciate the recent addition of high-speed Internet/DSL service. The main living area is equipped with a home theatre system and family game area.

The master bedroom is a private island paradise tucked away on the second level. Decorated with tranquil sea foam colors and appointed with lush, luxury king-size bedding, you will feel like you are sleeping on a cloud. A private porch with comfortable chairs is the perfect place for breakfast or relaxing seclusion.

The master bath features both a stand-up shower and separate tub to melt away any stresses from work or home. His and hers sinks along with an oversized master closet offer ample storage for a week or a month in paradise.

Also located on the second floor is a second private bedroom/bath suite with a queen bed and private deck, a nautical bunk nook with two beds and a bright "kids room" with a queen Murphy bed, porch and a TV/VCR/DVD player combo that can be hooked up to a PS2 for entertaining the kids when they are not in the pool, riding bikes, or at the beach.

The first floor guest room is a private suite with king-sized, pineapple-themed luxury bedding. You will enjoy delightful quiet mornings sipping coffee on the screened porch overlooking the beach boardwalk before heading to the beach for another sun-drenched day of emerald-colored waves that lap the shores of our sugar-white sand beaches.

For the quick grocery trip, Publix and Winn Dixie are just 1/4 mile away. For added convenience, a washer and dryer are also included.

Great Times

Guest: The Pikes, Vandergriffs, and Millhouses (-)
Date of Stay: 10/30/11 Review Submitted: 12/20/11

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us this fall. We enjoyed the accomidations and beaches very much. Our boys loved the bunk area the most. And our daughter enjoyed your "library." She is 3 and loves books! We ate most of our meals outside on the screened-in porch. And took a walk to the beach to watch the sun go to bed. We are from East Tennessee and dont have access to fresh seafood. So we love to go out and find great local places to get our fill. We have been going to Dusty's and Boondocks for several years. Last year we found Dewy Destins and this year we found Stinkys Fish Camp. Both of which are the best we have been to. Thanks again!

So Many Children

Guest: The Dunns (-)
Date of Stay: 08/27/11 Review Submitted: 12/20/11

We had a great week! We came with all 3 of our children and our 4 grandchildren- we're leaving with lots of memories (including a few pre-school meltdowns)! We enjoyed the extra beach trip- in fact, we made an awesome sand castle! The little ones loved riding their bikes and scooters around! We've fallen in love with Carillon Beach and cant wait to come again. It would be hard to go back to a condo! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Once Upon a Time...

Guest: The Irwins (-)
Date of Stay: 06/25/11 Review Submitted: 12/20/11

Once upon a time in a house beside the sea a family came together where the carillon rings. A pool in every direction and tennis to be played; they built majestic sandcastles and jumped in the waves. In thier gorgeous beachhouse with the ocean view on top they counted all the stars at night after watching the summer sun drop. With sun-bleached hair and sun-tanned skin we all hope to come back again. Our memories last for all of time, the week we spent at Once Upon a Time.

Once Upon a Time: It feels liek being wrapped in cashmere and cool sunsets. It resonates with giggles and butterfly kisses. It takes us through time with angel wings brushing our face. Yes, it's lions and tigers and bears... oh my! This is the magic and power of this house... oh my!
