About this property

Private Beach Access • Gated • Courtyard Pool • Pet Friendly

A one of a kind private vacation rental that will keep you coming back for years to come! This is a private, gated coastal retreat just a 3-minute walk to your own gated beach access—no fighting for space, no long walks, no chaos.
Tucked inside one of Miramar Beach's most desirable gated communities, this 3000 sq ft luxury home is built around a fully private courtyard with its own pool, giving you a rare level of privacy you simply don't get at the beach.
No elevators. No shared hallways. No packed public beach entrances. Just your group, your space, and the Gulf exactly how it should be. And yes—bring the dog. This home is now pet-friendly!

Highlights:
- Gated community = quiet, secure, no through traffic
- Gated private beach access (3-minute walk)
- Private courtyard pool (not overlooked by neighbors)
- Sleeps large groups comfortably with multiple hangout zones
- Pet-friendly (rare this close to the beach)
- Perfect mix of privacy + walkability

Your Own Private Coastal Compound
This home is designed differently than most beach rentals—the courtyard layout creates a true “resort feel” where everything centers around your private pool and outdoor living space.
Wake up → coffee on the porch → quick walk to a quiet beach → back to your pool → grill + drinks → fire at night. That's the rhythm here.

- Direct, easy walk to gated beach access

Main Living Area (Built for Groups)

- Full dining area for group dinners
- Stocked with essentials

Location: The Sweet Spot of Miramar Beach
You're in the Frangista Beach area—one of the most sought-after pockets because it's:
- Close to everything
- But still quiet and relaxed
- Walkable to the beach (huge advantage)

Nearby:
- Private beach access (3-minute walk)
