About this property

LUXURY CONDO W/ BEAUTIFUL GULF BEACH & REDFISH LAKE BALCONY VIEWS. 4 SWIM POOLS.

This professionally furnished unit is on the second floor with views of The Gulf of Mexico and Big Redfish Lake. The views are better than the pictures show. The three bedroom condo sleeps 6 adults and possible 1 child on the leather living room couch (not a fold- out bed but has roll out liner). The newly furnished balcony is completely private with seating for 6 with a table for food or drinks. The balcony can be accessed from the Living Room or the Master Bedroom. There are two full length sun lounges with small tables.

This incredible unit features 10 foot ceilings, granite kitchen & bar counter-tops, updated kitchen appliances, wireless internet and a gas fireplace. The living room/ dining room and all three bedrooms have new hardwood floors. All bedrooms have their own private bathrooms, ceiling fans, cable boxes, HDTVs and DVR. The master bath has a large jet tub & separate marble walled shower. The living room has two ceiling fans and a new 55” adjustable flat screen smart HDTV w/cable box, DVD & a Blu-Ray player. The kitchen is fully furnished including small appliances such as a toaster, toaster oven, a blender & 2 coffee makers (drip style & Keurig unit). The cable network has the sports package and a DVR (recordable programing) package for the living room & master bedroom.

Sanctuary at Redfish is situated on 14 beautiful acres that border Big Redfish Lake, an ultra-rare coastal dune lake. These lakes flow in & out of the Gulf & are unique & very rare throughout the world. In the United Stated dune lakes are only found adjacent to our very own Northwest Florida beaches. They are truly a treasure of nature & make this location a one-of-a-kind destination. Sanctuary at Redfish is a gated 64 unit, 3 story complex that does not ‘overwhelm’ the amenities provided, even at peak periods (unlike high rise apartment complexes).

Sanctuary at Redfish has a giant tastefully landscaped pool complex with 4 swimming pools and two hot tubs. The large swimming pool has zero depth entry at the west end. The pool area is fully furnished with tables and chairs and pool side lounges. The three small pools are great for families and small children and help reduce the number of people in the large pool. There are two hot tubs bordering the large swimming pool and the pool complex is beautifully landscaped and lighted at night. At the back of the pool complex just past the Fire-pit are 5 Weber Gas Grills which are excellently maintained and replaced often. There is a full state-of-the-art gym complete with a water fountain, men's and women's bathroom and showers.

For beach goers, a shuttle boat service is provided (Shuttle service and complimentary beach service runs from March 1st through the end of October from our dock and gazebo for a quick 3 minute trip across Big Redfish Lake to our private white sands beach on the Gulf (or paddle across the lake to our private beach in one of the common kayaks or canoes - available only when shuttle is running. An umbrella and two luxury wooden beach lounge chairs will be set up daily on the beach for our guests (included in the rate) March 1st through the end of October. Extra chairs can be taken to the beach aboard the shuttle, but tents and extra umbrellas are prohibited (extra umbrellas and/or chairs can be rented by the on-site provider - La Dolce Vita).

Alternatively, a short 10 minute walk to a private boardwalk (code provided for gate) also delivers you over the dunes onto the beach - (or back to the condo after an evening beach stroll).

Paved and Non-paved bike trails are accessed either in front of the complex or just down the street. Scenic Hwy 30A runs right in front of the complex connecting Blue Mountain Beach with Grayton Beach, Water Color, Seaside and Rosemary Beach resorts to mention a few and the paved bike trails run the length of these towns and more. Bicycle rentals are available close to the complex up the street at Big Daddy's Bike Shop. Also, a public beach with Lifeguards and public parking is located about 6 blocks from Sanctuary at Redfish (a good place to swim when the Gulf waves are rougher).

For winter renters; one small pool is heated to 80 F throughout the winter (unless the temperature drops below 50 F and the heater is shut down) and two hot tubs are always running. Shuttle service, common boats, and beach service are not available from Nov. 1st to March 1st.

The host is always available and intuned to the needs of the client. The kitchen pots/pans should be replaced since all skillets with teflon like coating are severely scratched. Several of the sinks/faucets including the kitchen sink need faucet replacement. This is twice we reserved the condo for the month of January and overall its a great place and location. We would rent the condo in the future.

We enjoyed a fantastic stay at this property. The condo is incredible. It is large and very clean. The owners were very responsive whenever we had a question. The beach is the best beach on 30A we’ve been to. The set-up of 2 chairs & 1 umbrella was greatly appreciated. The pool complex was perfect with ample pools. It is a quieter area which was exactly what we were looking for. Our kids loved the pontoon ride down to the beach (& not having to walk home from the beach after a busy day playing). I would recommend this property again and we plan to stay here again.

Quiet sanctuary with great amenities

A large and quiet sanctuary away from the hustle bustle of Hwy 30A and with views of Redfish Lake and the beach. We loved the spaciousness and comfort of the condo, including the large balcony. The best parts are the amenities - pools, fitness center, boat shuttle to the beach, and available canoes/kayaks. We look forward to returning in the future.

What a wonderful place to rest and relax!! The condo was awesome. The kitchen was well stocked with most everything we needed to eat in. The beds were very comfortable. Having a view of the gulf from the patio was a nice bonus and having 4 pools to choose from each day was a good thing! Can’t wait to come back…..Sanctuary at Redfish is a great place to hang out!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Bulger

Host profile image
I was born in Tampa, Fl., grew up in Ft. Worth, Tx and moved here from Atlanta, Ga. in 2010. I'm an Engineering consultant & I do a lot of work out of the country/state. I absolutely love Santa Rosa Beach and the greater 30A area. I live alone in a house on nearby Okaloosa Bay. Living on the water is a long standing dream of mine & I go fishing and crabbing whenever I am not working. My son Kevin (age 27) recently graduated from Florida State University and is working for the University in the computer department. My oldest son, Nicholas (age 34) lives in Destin and is a real estate agent.

Why they chose this property

I visited my sister in the 30A, Blue Mountain Beach area for several summers and enjoyed it so much that I decided to move here and buy at Sanctuary at Redfish, a decision I have never regretted. I lived at SAR for 1-1/2 years and still stay in the condo in the winter when it is not rented. I found real peace & serenity living on the lake with the Gulf view and when the surf is strong I can see and hear the breaking waves from the balcony.

What makes this property unique

The huge pool area is unique and beautifully landscaped with 4 swimming pools and two hot tubs. The facility is never over-crowded and the small swimming pools allow small children to play safely in the water (3 feet deep) while reducing the numbers in the main pool. As the nights become cool in the fall season, one of the small pools is headed to 80 degrees. We have a wonderful 'very' private beach. Access to restaurants stores and markets. Alternatively, the area is not a concrete jungle but supports parks, biking & hiking trails, brackish lakes, with trees and greenery everywhere. Living over a state sanctuary and dune lake has been relaxing & wonderful.
