About this property

What more could you want in a vacation home!! If you want to be very close to the beach, have your own PRIVATE POOL and enjoy a tastefully decorated beach home, then this home is for you!! Access to uncrowded sugar white sand and private beach is hassle free. We are so close to the beach you can hear the waves and the beach access is just steps away! Leave the crowds behind and enjoy the most beautiful beaches in the world almost to yourselves! Check out the map to see how close we are to the beach. Many rentals in the area are on the north side of the highway and require longs walks and crossing traffic to get to the beach. Our street is quiet and gated.

PERFECT CIRCLE is located only 25 yards away from the beach
(steps away from the beach walkover) and features a beautiful large heated private pool!! Located south of scenic highway 30 A in a secluded gated community neighboring WaterSound, we are just a short drive (approximately 25 - 30 minutes) away from Panama City Beach (ECP) airport. This ideal vacation home features easy GULF and LAKE access, vaulted family room ceilings, a well appointed kitchen, an open floor plan and a bunk room for kids! Getting to the beach is easy with your private beach access right outside the door. No busy streets to cross to get to the beach!! Many of the rentals in the area are on the northside of 30A, have no dedicated beach access, and must use crowded public beaches. At Perfect Circle, there is no need to spend the money to rent a golf cart as the walkway to the beach runs adjacent to our property.

Families will love the easy beach access, kids bunk room (with built in bunks and a large flat screen TV), nature trails, and proximity to shops, restaurants and activities in the neighboring communities of Seaside, Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach. Everyone will love being so close to the gulf that you can hear the surf,

Relax and enjoy your favorite book in the large open family room which features two attractive sitting areas, original artwork and beautiful views. Enjoy a cozy meal for two or a feast for the entire family at the beautiful antique barge board farm table. Cooks will love the well appointed open kitchen (and the easy drive to grocery stores and markets). If you are not a cook, there are many top rated restaurants just minutes away. Please note: The kitchen, living / dining areas, and master suite were just renovated in late 2021 & we have not even had an opportunity to update the photos on the VRBO site to reflect the improvements.

Don't leave your canine family member at home! We are one of very few pet friendly rentals in the area. Your well behaved dog is welcome with prior approval. Pets will enjoy the miles of walking and biking trails in the area. Pet owners will enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a quiet subdivision and no busy streets. Local pet ordinances and pet fees apply.

Nearby you will find the beautiful Camp Creek Lake with a private dock to enjoy to gorgeous evening sunsets. Kayakers and fisherman alike will love having the choice of the coastal lake and the gulf for variety!

Spend the day on the beach or relax with a book. Once you tire of the beach, take a dip in your own private pool or relax in the shade on the deck. You are only minutes away from the towns of Seaside and Rosemary Beach, where shopping, strolling and dining await. Browse in the galleries, have a cup of coffee or get ice cream for the kids. This is all within a short car ride, 10-15 minute bike ride, or a 20 - 30 minute walk along the 30A path! You can rent bikes, paddle boards, and beach chairs from a number of local companies. They'll deliver the bikes and set up chairs daily.

Play a round of golf in the morning at one of the many nearby top rated courses or spend an afternoon visiting the many local shops and restaurants. Finish off the day by enjoying the fiery sunset on the private dock overlooking Camp Creek Lake. Grill your favorite dinner while the kids swim in the pool! We offer both a propane gas grill and a traditional Weber kettle charcoal model. It is all here and waiting for you at PERFECT CIRCLE.

Other features include Smart TVs (log in to your account for streaming services like NETFLIX and watch like you are at your own home or use our YouTube TV), sound system, secure high speed wireless internet access, outdoor hot and cold shower, and large master bedroom with King sized bed.

Whatever you choose, you are sure to enjoy your stay at this charming beach home!! Book your reservation early as this beautiful home fills up quickly.

NO HIGH SCHOOL OR COLLEGE SPRING BREAK RENTALS! This is our second home, not a full time rental, and is suited for families to enjoy in our quiet neighborhood. If you are looking for a place for your group to have a beach week party, this isn't the place for you.

Rentals other than 7 day Saturday to Saturday check in / check out require prior approval as we generally rent full weeks.

Pool can be heated for an additional fee. Please inquire.

Another perfect stay!

This was our fifth year at Perfect Circle and it was perfect in every way! The weather was outstanding and the house feels like our home away from home. We love being so close to a private beach and a pool is a real bonus especially for our grandchildren! The owner and manager are always so helpful and we plan to keep on coming back as long as possible!

Great House, super location

Our family of 11 stayed in this great home. It is a very short walk to the private beach with the softest sand ever. And with 11 we prepared most of our own food and the kitchen was fantastic with the amount of cookware, cutlery and quality appliances. The pool was very nice for evenings and the outdoor shower a special touch.

Great place to spend a week!

This home, pool, and location were perfect for six adults and one dog. The beach was uncrowded and private, the pool was partially shaded to escape the heat, the home was well equipped, and the new publix was a 5-minute drive away. You could never leave the neighborhood if you brought enough food, or you could go to a ton of restaurants and bars a short bike ride away. We'll definitely come back!

Perfect Location!

The house was so beautiful and so close to the beach. It was updated with top of the line appliances and beautiful decor! The private pool was amazing. We had 4 kids (ages 5&6) so having the beach access right there was AMAZING! We would definitely book this rental again!

Fall break vacation

Our daughter, 3 grandsons, my husband and I spent a week at this beautiful house. The kitchen was perfectly equipped with anything you could possibly imagine. Beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room. Walk to the beach was very convenient and JOE saved the day when we had a flat tire! He got our daughter and her baby to the airport just in time for their flight and found a great guy Allen to fix our tire! We’ll definitely be back!

One of the best houses we’ve stayed in yet

This gated community was not only beautiful, but the house is spectacular. It is surrounded by trees and flowers and a short walk to the beach. The open living area with the outstanding kitchen was perfect for our family of 6. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds are very comfortable. The backyard pool was just what our littles needed and the charcoal and propane grills made it great to cookout. The path behind the pool leads directly to the boardwalk for the beach. Joe the property manager came over on a Sunday within 20 minutes after we requested the pool heater be turned on for the kids. That was the only thing we wanted because the house had everything we needed. It is clear that this house is the owner’s second home and they share it so that others can enjoy it. The owners responded quickly with questions we had before check-in, and kept us informed throughout. Also being able to bring our 4 legged child was such a bonus. Our family loves the beach and the 30A area, and my wife and I have been visiting the area for over 25 years. We’ve been able to raise our kids on the beach, and this house was another memory they will have forever.

Pelican lover

Overall a great place to stay. I have two suggestions. A full length mirror so we can see how pretty we look before we go out & a makeup mirror attached to the wall in at least the master bath. Our family loved this house. The pool was absolutely the best. We haven’t been on a family vacation in 4 years, so it was a little bit of paradise.

The perfect family week at the beach!

We loved this house so much and have already talked about coming back. The house is beautiful and comes with so many kitchen things other rentals don’t. The location to all the other beach towns can’t be beat. We drove to Grayton, seaside, Rosemary etc in just minutes and walked to alys almost everyday. The beach is quiet but family friendly with easy and Close access to house. The pool was wonderful and bigger than we expected. We loved our stay!

Family beach trip

We had a lovely stay for a week at the beach in July. The kids loves the pool, maybe a bit too much. And the beach was great. The house was clean and we loved the kitchen great room area. The area around the house is mostly neighborhoods with one area walking distance, the Hub, which was a fun place to have food and drinks.

Fantastic Family Beach Trip

This must be one of the best kept secrets of 30a. My husband and I loved everything about our stay. As other reviews mentioned there were ants by the pool, but this did not bother us. Also, our elderly parents were able to make the walk over the sand dune to the beach, but the stairs leading to the beach are quite steep, so anyone who struggles with stairs or has mobility issues should consider staying elsewhere. Over all would recommend staying here 10/10!

Pretty property

This was a great property close to the beach. The walk was easy to and from the beach. The newly renovated house was very pretty and clean. If you are looking for a view of the beach this is not the house. It was difficult at times to hear the beach on the porch. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and my kids got to hand feed a friendly squirrel. The check out process was the easiest of any Vrbo home we stayed in so that was a plus. Overall, it is a great house to stay at and the area of 30A is perfect.

What a GEM!!! This is an amazing rental - the house is beautiful, having a pool is fabulous, and the beach is quiet and private. We took our dog, and really loved being inside a gated neighborhood vs right off 30A as we have been in the past - it just made it feel safe when walking with a dog and kids! It was lovely to be able to walk to the beach AND a lake! It was also a real treat to be able to cook on the fantastic range/stove and use the nice kitchen equipment - even cooking on vacation was fun!!! I’d give this 10 stars if i could - truly loved it!!!

About the host

Hosted by Rae Bryan

Rae Bryan is currently a Realtor with Gardner Realtors in New Orleans, Louisiana. She, her husband, 3 children and yellow lab enjoy spending time at Perfect Circle whenever they can pull away from the business of everyday life. She has over 15 years of experience in the real estate and lending areas and has been actively, leasing/selling real estate for a number of years. The property is professionally managed and maintained by Rae and her maintenance and cleaning staff.

'Our #1 goal is to insure that our guests have a wonderful vacation at our home. We have many guests who return each year. Your vacation should be hassle free, and we try to keep it that way!'

Why they chose this property

We chose to buy a home in S. Walton County because you cannot find prettier beaches anywhere. The sugar white sand the the crystal clear waters are unique to this part of Florida. Our home is just steps from the beach. There are no busy streets to cross! There are many shops and restaurants nearby at the quaint towns of Seaside and Rosemary Beach. There are no crowds as our neighborhood is private. You have the best of both worlds....beautiful beaches, restaurants and shopping, but privacy and space on the uncrowded beaches. In a word 'Perfect'.

What makes this property unique

According to one of our guests...
'Our week went by too fast! It's in a great location, and it's very difficult to find a nice house close to the beach with a private pool that's also pet friendly. And we had the beach to ourselves most days. So Perfect Circle was exactly what I'd been looking for the last couple of years, and we will definitely be back next year!'
