Experience Your Vacation Haven!

It has been said there are moments in life we live for … a week of sun, fun, and good friends. So why not make those times more memorable by securing a beachfront rental on the extraordinary Gulf of Mexico? Wave Catcher is located on desirable 30A, within the Dune Allen area, part of Santa Rosa Beach. It’s known for its idyllic surroundings and uncrowded beaches.

This house provides an extraordinary bird’s eye view from east to west of truly remarkable sunrises and sunsets. The designer of this home on stilts took full advantage of the view by installing floor-to-ceiling windows in the common area. In addition, an oversized window in the full-sized kitchen provides a breathtaking view of the rolling surf. There have been recent updates made to this home including new paint, new decking, and new furniture in the bedrooms and living area.

As you enter the main area, just inside the French doors, there is adequate seating for 12 to dine. The deck also offers plentiful seating for everyone to secure their favorite spot in the sun or to enjoy stargazing in the evening.

All four bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and smart TVs. The front-facing bedrooms have amazing Gulf views, while the back bedrooms overlook Oyster Lake, a very rare dune pond natural habitat. And, knowing how beach towels and bathing suits mount up, a separate laundry room with an ample cabinet, makes this chore a little more tolerable.

This venue comfortably sleeps ten.

A Sweet Spot for a Quick Getaway

We had a great stay at this vacation home! It had everything we needed—from kitchen essentials to comfy spaces to relax. There was plenty of room for everyone, and the location was perfect—close to several great dinner spots.We were pleasantly pleased with how smooth and enjoyable everything was. Would definitely stay here again!

FAMILY VACATION!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was perfect for us and would recommend 100% , hope to be able to book again in the next few years for our family vacation! We loved having a quiet beach area right in front of the home , only 3 to 4 other families around on any day. Great location away from the hustle of the main areas but still close to grocery stores and such. A great plus for us was the 4 bedrooms and 4 separate baths, everyone had their own space and then main living area was great for everyone to eat and just hang out together while looking over the beach!

It was perfect for what we wanted. Right on top of the ocean and beach. Great proximity to restaurants & walking path. Clean. Clean is priority! Mattresses encased in zip cases. Kitchen- I had to get creative to make cookies only one cookie sheet. But that’s nothing. Clean and on the beach. Quiet considering how close to the road it is. No complaints!

The only thing we were disappointed in was the TV situation of having to stream - no regular stations but all in all this was the perfect house. We will be back next year!

The expansive view is unbeatable! We had a bbq grill last year and it was no longer there. The lounge chairs on the deck are pretty uncomfortable but I know that anything with a cushion wouldn’t hold up. Overall, super pleased with this rental!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Close to everything but far enough for some privacy. Loved being able to walk right out to the beach from the house. We were there during busy season but had little traffic on the beach in the area. House was clean and very well stocked in all aspects. Only negative comment is I would have liked more comfortable patio furniture. Otherwise everything was great.

Our rental house was Wave Catcher. It’s a beautiful house.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about the house on the beach. We stayed 7 days. The house is located kinda close to the public beach access. We had problem with people from public beach access trying to set their umbrellas and chairs right in front of our chairs. ( between us and the beach). We had to ask people to move on down the beach on a daily basis. Some of them were nice about not setting up in front of our chairs but some had attitudes. I’ve rented different houses on different areas of the beach for several years and this has never been a problem. Not sure if it’s just Santa Rosa area but I will definitely look at proximity of public beach access for my next stay.
