About this property
Gulf View, 4BR, South of 30A, Easy Beach Access, Pool
This large townhome has Gulf views from the living room, eating area, balcony, and especially from the large Master Suite & its seating area. From the front door, it's just a few steps to the pool, and just a few more to put your toes in the sparkling white sugar sands and emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. BEACH ACCESS IS VIA PRIVATE BOARDWALK--NO STREETS OR ROADS TO CROSS. From the balcony, you can monitor the pool, the Gulf, and maybe the kids playing in the large courtyard below. Watch large-screen TV in the living room, while the kids watch TV or play games on floor below. Wireless internet provided.
The four bedrooms are set up for maximum flexibility: The master suite has a king bed; another bedroom has a queen bed; a third bedroom has extra-long twin beds that can be pushed together to make a king-sized unit; the fourth bedroom has regular twin beds. All bedrooms have TVs.
Santa Rosa Beach is family-oriented--no high rise condos or hotels. In addition to easy access to beach and pool, guests can also walk to many close-by restaurants, shops, and music concerts (Gulf Place amphitheater).

Area restaurants offer terrific local seafood--or, cook it yourself in the fully-equipped kitchen or on the gas grill provided.

Access to beach was a 5-7 minute walk..The pool was nice and not too crowded and the hot tub was nice. The unit I felt was dated and needs renovations…There is no pantry so you have to take all the necessary items for your stay…
We had a great stay. Communication was easy, the house had everything we needed and the location was perfect. We love the easy access to the beach and local restaurants and shops.
Perfect location, there was some construction nearby but overall nice place to stay, conveniently located close to activities and in a gates community.
GREAT location and property. This is the second time we have stayed here. Steps to the beach, shops and restaurants. Would HIGHLY recommend this location.
A family friendly place. Loved the closeness of the pool and beach. We also enjoyed the shops and restaurants in walking distance.
The host was amazing with communication and customer service.
Unit could handle two small families based on good setup with beach view on the top two floors. Kids enjoyed the warm pool. Short walk to the beach. Also, within a 5-10 minute walk to Goatfeathers and Shunk Gulley.
This was our first time vacationing in Santa Rosa Beach and it did not disappoint! This house was in the perfect location next to the pool, close to the beach and near all kinds of shops and restaurants. It was a great size allowing everyone to have their own space. The house was clean and the owner was very friendly and attentive to any questions we had. I could definitely see us coming back here again!

Great beach vacation property.
When we arrived we found the place clean and very welcoming. The living space was big enough to accomodate all eight of us that were staying there(four adults and four teens). There are plenty of dishes and linens for your use, so you won't need to bring any towels and wash cloths. The owner was quick to respond to any and all questions. Both before and during our stay. We will definitely consider using this property when we stay in the same area again.
Awesome townhouse in The Sea Haunts that’s close to a lot of family friendly places in Santa Rosa Beach!!
Raymond was awesome with fantastic availability. The unit was clean and perfect for our family of 7. The pool and hot tub are perfect for the Red Flag days at the beach. The beach is only a 2 minute walk from the front door! The unit has beach umbrellas and chairs to take so you don’t have to rent anything unless you’d like to.
Walk to restaurants, ice cream, a local artist venue, the beach, the pool….you almost don’t need a car while you’re here.
Wonderful clean townhouse with great amenities that’s close to everything. Love this place and you will too!
We had an enjoyable stay. The layout of the house took some getting used to (you have to walk through one bedroom to get to another), but it wasn’t anything that would keep us from staying there again. 90 steps to the beach is a little bit of a stretch- it was more like 250, but still not far at all and the views were lovely. Its also a stretch to say that you can watch the kids in the pool. Perhaps you could if there weren’t trees between the house and the pool (the pool is right next to the house, but you can’t necessarily see it from the balcony). Overall though, the gated community was nice and the pool was great. It was convenient to the shops without being next to the super crowded part of the beach. The owner was helpful in helping us get our left behind phone charger back.

Enjoyed our stay
Our family enjoyed ourselves using this unit. The AC had issues BEFORE we arrived and the owner took care of it promptly - and other than stepping around HVAC workers on Monday, there were no real issues.
Let me give you the bad first. This unit [as do most of them in the area] has steps. Three levels with two staircases, which for someone who can't do steps, they would need to know. For us, it wasn't an issue, other than we had a toddler and had to make sure he was careful. For elderly travelers, this could be an issue. An other issue we had revolved around supplies. Only two trash bags were inside the unit, and TP was limited. Also, ants were bad in the kitchen, though I suspect, it had nothing to do with our unit, as we saw numerous ants working outside in the yard and walkway area's. Keeping food in air tight containers helped. But you must keep the kitchen clean and food free, otherwise, the ants win.
However, the good far outweighted those few bad things. The unit is very close to the water and swiming pool. It's also very close to numerous eating and shopping places. The gated community was a nice touch as well. Other than the previous guest stuffing cookies in the cushions of the couch [ guessing toddlers! :-) ] the unit was very clean, and the HVAC worked [once replaced] wonderfully. The owner had plenty of towels, blankets, pillows, dishes, etc to use. The cleaning people were at the unit on Sunday @ 9am. I think we had to be out by 10am ... so they're on top of things.
Bottom line?
We would come back, as we enjoyed ourselves, and the owner was very easy and nice to work with.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr 2020
We very much appreciate the overall positive review. We also appreciate when minor problems are brought to our attention. Property manager will take care of the ant issue. Guests should be aware that initial limited supplies of household products (e.g., toilet paper, paper towels, tall kitchen bags, etc) are provided to get you started, but are not intended to last an entire week. Thanks.
Amazing family vacation. Easy access to beach and restaurants
Excellent property. Lots of space! Beds are comfortable and condo clean. Lots of cookware, utensils, Tupperware, and dishes. Property manager is very responsive. My grandkids and kids give it 2 thumbs up. Highly recommend this place!
There were 8 retired folks in our group and we had a very good time. The stairs got a little tough by week's end, but fortunately there were railings on each side of the stairways which helped those of us with bad knees. The pool was very nice and the hot tub had nice, hot water. There was quite a bit of seaweed washing onto the beach, but one lady who was somewhat of a regular said it was due to the hurricane down south as she had never seen it like that before. It also caused rip current warnings our last two days. Otherwise the,beach was great. Well supplied kitchen as far as dishes and utensils, however don't expect spices or condiments. I'm sure that is due to pandemic issues as Ray, the landlord, has tried to accommodate all the renters' needs.
Everything was exactly as described, but the descriptions could not capture the pure beauty and magic of the view. The beach truly was a short walk from the front door, you could hear the waves and smell the ocean. Even the rainy days weren’t bad at all. We had great family time playing games. I highly recommend any families that are trying to decide, should stay here.
Easy to get in, but the gate didn't recognize our car to leave. Had to go outside and use the code to leave the property. The beds were great! The kitchen was well stocked with pots pans and dishes! Enjoyed our stay!!
