About this property

Sweet 'N Salty · Sweet 'N Salty *Private Gated Beach* Heated Pool

Sweet 'N Salty is a quaint home tucked away in the Emerald Shores gated community in Miramar Beach! Our 3 bedroom 2 bath home can accommodate up to 12 guests. Our guests can enjoy our 2 community pools (1 seasonally heated), basketball & tennis courts, seasonal tram service to our private gated beach access, and peace of mind with community security. Come enjoy some sweet memories & the salty air at our cozy home!

Our home is situated on a cul-de-sac in the beautiful gated community of Emerald Shores. We offer the convenience of our community having two access points-one from Highway 98, the main road through Destin/Miramar Beach, and one from Scenic Highway 98, the "beach road". Our home is just steps away from basketball and tennis courts, and one of the community pools. A few minutes walk will take you to our second seasonally heated community pool located centrally in the neighborhood. Our private gated beach access is right at the entrance of the neighborhood on Scenic 98, complete with pavilions & close access to Kenny D's beach bar & grill!

...Amenities we know will make your trip sweeter...
-Private Gated Beach access complete with a pavilion, beach wagon parking, restrooms, showers, optional Beach Service rentals, and a Cabana Bar.
-Two community pools, with the central one being seasonally heated.
-Play your heart out on the basketball, tennis, and shuffleboard courts right out the back door.

...Where You'll Sleep...
Bedroom 1, King bed
Bedroom 2, Triple Stacked Twin Bunk Beds
Bedroom 3, King Bed
Living Area, Queen Pull Out Murphy Bed

...And here's a walk through of what it's like to stay at Sweet & Salty...

Our home offers keyless entry for each guest, so no need to fumble with keys during your trip! Upon entering our home you'll be welcome into our living area. We offer two sofas, a TV with Cox Cable, a built in dog crate for your furry guests (no need to bring one along!), and a console table that doubles as a queen sized pull out murphy bed!

Our open concept kitchen and dining area overlook the living area. Our table comfortably seats six, and there's additional seating at the breakfast bar. The kitchen boasts beautiful quartz countertops, brand new stainless appliances, all the standard cookware you'll need, and a bonus margarita machine for added fun! Our back patio can be accessed directly from the living & dining area. We include both a propane & charcoal grill, and a few seats to kick back and relax!

Down the hallway to the left you'll find out spacious Master Suite with a comfortable King bed & Tv for relaxing at the end of a beach day. The En-suite bathroom provides an extra level of comfort with a walk in closet, his and her sinks, separate toilet room, a jacuzzi tub, and standalone shower.

Our bunk room is situated a little further down the hall on the right. Your kids will be talking about these triple bunks for years to come! The bottom bunk is safe for even the smallest travelers, as it sits right off the floor, so no tumbling off to worry about!

The final bedroom is another spacious King room with custom painted Shabby Chic furniture, a tv, and closet space for your luggage. This room offers an attached full Jack & Jill bathroom with a shower & tub combo that also opens up to the hallway for access.
Finally, the laundry room can be found at the end of the hallway with a full sized washer & dryer for guest use.

PARKING
We can accommodate up to 2-3 vehicles (depending on size, parking is slightly narrow in front of the home). Unfortunately, we do not have any streetside or additional overnight parking, so please plan in advance prior to your arrival.

BEACH
We are about a 7-8 minute walk from our front door to the Emerald Shores private gated beach access! Seasonally, our neighborhood offers a shuttle to and from the beach for ease of access for our guests.

A few important details to keep in mind when booking our property:
-All linens (bed linens, towels, beach towels) are provided for any length of stay, with a washer and dryer in the home. Do note that we supply a small courtesy amount of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher/dish soap, laundry detergent and hand soap that's typically enough for the first 24 hours of your stay. For larger groups or longer trips, it is recommended that you bring additional supplies as seen fit for your group size/length of stay.
-We are pet friendly (up to two pets), but we must know upon inquiry as we do implement a non-negotiable pet fee, and we expect that your fur-baby is house trained, cleaned up after inside & outside, and if left in the home unattended that you do crate your animal (in our provided crate). Emotional support animals are not an exception to the pet fee, but we do not charge for any ADA recognized Service Animals. It is 100% necessary to have your pet leashed and cleaned up after at all times outside of the home. We do not allow pets in the pool areas of our community at ANY time. Please note that if you do show up with a pet, we will enforce this fee, regardless if you have chosen to disclose it to us up front.
-We do not host students/groups under age 25 at any time, due to HOA rules. Sorry, no exceptions.

We are always available for our guests anytime before and during your trip. It is highly encouraged to read our listing in detail for any questions about the space, location, and amenities. We ask, please, for NO text message communication as you will not receive a response. For more immediate needs and emergencies please place a phone call to Matthew (and be sure to know the logistics of your trip such as the dates and location). We can be reached most times of the day, but ask for no late night contact-we will do our absolute best to take care of any needs and questions as soon as they arise!

Short walk to the private beach
We had a lovely Easter weekend. The hosts communicated very well and the house was charming. We loved that we could walk to the private beach. It was a beautiful well kept quiet neighborhood as well.

Lovely vacation home.
The house is very nice and well equipped. Owners are very helpful. Great location to beach, restaurants, shopping, et . The only 2 comments we have is it would be nice to have full size light weight beach chairs. And we had to buy a step stool for me to get in the bed in the master because I’m short and recently had 2 knee replacements. Since elderly people rent in Florida, these two items would be a good addition.
