About this property

Dockside Paradise!- Kayaks, Hot Tub & Private Dock–Minutes from Beaches & Dining

Skip the condos and experience Reel Paradise — your private waterfront retreat in Perdido Key. No elevators, no noisy neighbors — just a hot tub under the stars, your own dock for boating and fishing, and inviting outdoor spaces built for family memories. Paddle into sunrise, grill your fresh catch in the outdoor kitchen, and relax while watching sunsets over Bayou Garcon.

Just 5 minutes from Johnson Beach National Seashore, Perdido Key State Park, and Perdido Key Seafood Market. Grab lunch or launch your boat at Hub Stacy’s, or enjoy waterside dining at The Point, Oyster Bar, or Holiday Harbor Marina & Sunset Grille. Explore the Perdido Key “beach strip” — including Cubi Bar Café, Jellyfish Restaurant & Bar, The Crab Trap, or enjoy a bushwacker at the iconic Flora‑Bama. For family day trips, head to Waterville USA in Gulf Shores or Tropic Falls at OWA—both offer action-packed waterpark fun just a short drive away.

Reel Paradise is a recently updated waterfront home designed for both comfort and convenience. The main floor features an open living/kitchen area with bright coastal décor, a fully stocked modern kitchen, and bedrooms with crisp hotel-style bedding. Downstairs, a private queen suite with its own bath and bonus living room creates the perfect retreat for teens, in-laws, or friends — note that upstairs and downstairs are connected only by exterior stairs, offering privacy and flexibility for larger groups. Wide decks overlook Bayou Garcon, complete with a hot tub, outdoor TV, and a gourmet kitchen setup, fire pit, making it easy to cook, relax, or simply enjoy the water views. Watch the Blue Angles practice from the comfort of the back deck.

Recent Upgrades: New outdoor DuraWeather furniture (2025), fully renovated kitchen with white cabinetry and countertops (2024), and brand-new floors, spa-inspired bathroom, and a third bedroom addition (2023).

Great property, wonderful location

We scheduled a guys trip to Pensacola to see the air show. This property is well-situated close to NAS Pensacola and is a short drive to Publix and local restaurants. The land across the water from the house is a preserve, and provides an amazing backdrop to time spent on the deck and dock.

Just Amazing!

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect in every way. We especially loved watching the dolphins swim in the morning with a cup of coffee from the outdoor kitchen. It was very convenient to the beaches, shopping, dining and all the local favorites. We will definitely be coming back.

Great Property!!

This place was amazing. More than what we expected it had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed watching the dolphins and fishing. The deck was the best part of the property that’s mainly where we were the entire time. We will definitely be returning in the near future.

We loved our stay! We had a family get together from Virginia & Alabama. It was wonderful to enjoy the outside with the whole family, cooking, eating, playing, fishing, and watching the dolphins visit daily at dawn and dusk! Thank you.

Private getaway

We’ve stayed in Pensacola during spring break before and you can’t get a private, quiet moment of peace as it’s all so busy. This rental was amazing because it was literally 1 mile from stores and 5 min from the main events but was tucked back in the bay in a quiet tree lined alcove. We had everything we needed, enjoyed the hot tub, kayaks and peace!

Great inside, even better outside

House was clean and very nice inside. Quiet and off the beaten path but close to lots of shopping for necessities and restaurants. The outside deck was amazing. Enjoyed grilling fresh shrimp and fish from the local fish market on the outside kitchen while watching the beautiful sunset over the water. Wish we had time to play a little more with the kayaks and paddle boat available. The heron enjoyed watching us fish off the pier and we liked watching the dolphins swim by.
