This was the third time we spent our Spring Break at Sandy Feet. We love it! We enjoyed the layout where we could all cook delicious seafood meals while visiting and watching the final four basketball. The porch is a lovely place to read. We could easily walk to the beach and ride our bikes from the home. The home is clean and comfortable! We will return soon!!!

About the host

Hosted by Gary Cornett

Host profile image
We're an active retired couple from Franklin, TN. In 2012 we invested in Sandy Feet, a beach home, that we can also enjoy with family and friends. Through out the years we’ve made frequent visits to Sandy Feet and have enjoyed working on and making it very special. We are located at Santa Rosa Beach, which features the most beautiful sugar sand beaches, bike paths and walking trails. An eclectic selection of restaurants are within walking distance.

Why they chose this property

We love the tucked-away feeling that the shaded Cottages of Santa Rosa Beach offer as well as the nature preserves that surround the area and the lovely beach, bike paths and small community feel. A beach access, Ed Walline, is a short walk away, or a 1 minute drive. Plus, the communities of Grayton Beach, Seaside, Rosemary Beach are short drives down scenic Hwy 30A. We also love the close-by restaurant selection from Stinky’s Fish Camp, The Perfect Pig, Shunk Gulley, Pecan Jacks Ice Cream and the Growler Garage to name a few. There are plenty of great restaurants along 30A.

What makes this property unique

Sandy Feet is located .4 miles from the designated Ed Walline public beach access with showers and restrooms, bike paths, as well as the unique restaurant and bar selection. But what we really love more than anything are the quiet evenings on our front porch after a walk on the beach at sunset. The sunsets on this beach are spectacular and are different every night. Brilliant oranges, pink and silver. Gorgeous!

Another thing that makes this property special is that we constantly improve and update the house inside and out, which is evident by the growing number of 5 star reviews we've earned over the years!
