Enjoyable stay

We had a great family trip! It was outlr 2nd stay at gulf place and we love having the pool access and a very short walk to the private beach. Many complain about crowded beaches along 30a, but that has never been the case there. Property was well stocked and met our needs. Owner was great and responded very promptly. Wonderful time had by all!reaponded

We loved everything about...

We loved everything about the condo. It was very clean, very well stocked, decorated nicely and plenty of room for everyone. The view from the balcony was excellent! The Santa Rosa/Gulf Place area was beautiful. We spent all day, every day at the beach, which was gorgeous with the white sand and clear water.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Rouse

Host profile image
We are from Norther Kentucky. We enjoy providing an opportunity to make as many memories as possible for your family by sharing our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We came down for my nephew's wedding and fell in love with Santa Rosa. We love the sugar white sandy beaches and the beautiful water. It's not a crowded beach its very peaceful, but it's close enough to Destin and Panama City if you decide you want a little more night life or excitement.

What makes this property unique

Wish You Were Here has everything you would need. If you didn't want to go anywhere else during your stay it's all right here for you at Gulf Place Caribbean. We have shops, entertainment, restaurants, bike rentals and even concerts in the summer. We have access to three pools, tennis courts, pickleball courts, corn hole, shuffleboard, and walking trails all within Gulf Place.
