About this property

Incredible NOLA-Inspired Condo in Baytowne Wharf!

Right where you want to be! "French Haven" is a 2 bed, 2 bath, 2nd floor condo right on the main pedway of Baytowne Wharf in Sandestin® Golf and Beach Resort. Walk down the back stairs to the courtyard, and head out to fun in any direction. No need for a car or golf cart as you will be within walking distance of all the action and entertainment, and just a tram-ride away from the beach and additional shopping and dining. There's even a gym, pool, and hot tub just steps away. Sleeps 4-6.

* 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
* Sleeps 4-6 comfortably
* Master suite has a king bed and an attached bathroom, sleeps 2
* Guest room has a full-over-full bunkbed with attached bathroom, sleeps 2-4
* Smart TV's in every room
* Large full kitchen with stainless steel appliances and essentials
* Laundry area with full sized washer and dryer - detergent is provided
* Fabulous balcony overlooking the Village of Baytowne Wharf
* Elevator access to condo entrance (please note there are 3 steps to enter the condo)
* Parking for 1 vehicle in covered garage
* Pets 20 pounds or less allowed if listed in the booking and the pet fee is paid
* Please note that the "property fee" of $10 a night is to pay a mandatory tax from the HOA that we cannot line-item as a tax in VRBO

You will love "French Haven!" The unique brick and wood flooring, along with the artwork on every wall, really gives you that jazzy New Orleans feel, and the music streaming in from "Rum Runners" and other neighborhood haunts will make you feel like you're truly on Bourbon Street! This child-friendly condo is right in the heart of Baytowne Wharf with room to sleep 4-6 (ideally 4 adults OR 2 adults and 2-4 kids). Enjoy the balcony and watch the hustle and bustle of Baytowne Wharf right below your feet. This is where it's all at - you won't need a car to get anywhere you'll want to be. The owners have purchased tram passes for their guests, so just head to the main pickup at Baytowne (a 2 minute walk) and you're on your way to the beach, Grand Boulevard, tennis, golf, and the marina.

There is a king-sized bed in the main floor master bedroom, with a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and dual showerheads. The master suite is incredibly spacious with a large walk-in closet, a mounted smart TV, and lots of privacy. There is a ceiling fan for added air circulation and multiple canned lights to make the space cheery and bright!

The guest room has a full-over-full bunkbed (with steps) with a full bathroom attached. The walk-in shower in the en-suite bathroom is gorgeous! Like the master bedroom, this room is filled with light from recessed lighting and a nice-sized window. This is not a dark and closed-in bunkroom! The décor is just delightful and makes guests feel at home with their own private smart TV.

The living room has a large sofa and oversized chair for kicking back and relaxing in comfort. The living room and both bedrooms each have mounted smart TVs - so remember to bring your Netflix/Amazon Prime/streaming credentials with you on your trip. There is plenty of room for everyone to settle in at "French Haven."

This privately-owned home has an amazing kitchen featuring granite countertops, granite and stainless steel backsplashes, and outstanding GE Monogram stainless-steel appliances. Yes - that is a gas cooktop you see! The kitchen is fully equipped (full-sized Sub-Zero refrigerator with 2 freezer drawers!) for the enthusiastic cook who enjoys feeding family and friends! A Keurig coffee maker is available along with a traditional coffee maker. The kitchen has dining space for 4 at the raised counter, and access to the second full bathroom is off the kitchen.

There is a full-size washer and dryer off the main entry hall with detergent provided. It's nice having the laundry separate from the main living space!

The balcony at "French Haven" is the star of this property! Enjoy dining "al fresco" as you watch people enjoying their time at the Village of Baytowne Wharf. The nights with live music can be enjoyed right from your own condo as well as the fireworks every Tuesday during summer!

We do allow pets at or under 20 pounds to stay as long as the pet is listed on the reservation and the pet fee is paid. If your pet is over 20 pounds, please reach out before booking.

"French Haven" is located within the resort of Sandestin® and is on the bayside amongst golf courses, the conference centers, the Marina, and Baytowne Wharf! The beach is a mere 1.5 miles away (please bring your own beach towels), close enough to tram, walk, or bike over but far enough away to escape the hustle and bustle (and noise) of beach life. Walk out the back door and head in any direction towards fun and entertainment!

The owners take great pride in providing the types of amenities that they, themselves, look for when traveling with their friends and family. You will find everything you need to cook, relax, and enjoy your vacation, including a full-sized washer and dryer in the home, smart TVs, coffee makers, bathroom amenities, laundry detergent, a pack-n-play (please bring your own sheet) and booster seat for your use. Cleanliness is critical to a guest's experience and we employ the most highly-rated housekeepers in the area.

Nice getaway

property owner was quick to respond to questions and it was very clean. Due to the face it was a holiday weekend it was very difficult to park - several nights we had to go to other parking lot. Also not enough luggage carts though this is not fault of owner. Kitchen was very well stocked. Only item I’d suggest to upgrade is dryer. To be nice and help out , we started some laundry and it took 3 times to run the dryer to get towels dry. Would stay here again and found the ow we nice and always available to assist

Easy access to parking garage, entertainment, conference center, dining, shopping, EVERYTHING!!! Was happy to see more businesses and restaurants opening up again in Baytowne Wharf. EXCELLENT, quick communication with host. We look forward to staying with you again!!!!!!

Great Place To Stay

Location of this condo is great. You walk out your doorstep and you are in the middle of the action. The greatest attribute is that the condo is dog friendly. I'm always apprehensive that the condo will smell like a dog. No worries here! There is no carpet in the condo for smells to harbor and it is very clean. Don't let the dog friendly status scare you away if you do not have a pet.

Awesome Location

We stayed here on Spring Break with our 2 kids. They loved the bunk beds. The location was perfect. Above Baytowne Wharf, so convenient to everything. Having a kitchen made it great for cooking in some nights. Such a short distance from parking garage to condo. Would stay again due to the location.

Great location and beautiful condo

We stayed here for a short period as we were coming to Sandestin for my brother’s retirement party at the beach house restaurant. The location of the condo was close by and convenient. However, we did not spend much time in the condo or the area sightseeing as we were very busy spending time with family and friends at planned gatherings prior to the event. We would love to come back to this condo when we come to visit this area as the location was fantastic and hope to do some shopping and eating at the local restaurants that are within walking distance. Karyl was very responsive to an issue we had in entering into the condo when we first got there and was a great host

The Perfect VRBO!!

We absolutely adored everything about our stay!! First, the owners are amazing to work with and so kind and attentive! The condo was exactly as described and better! It was very well stocked, and had everything we needed! The beds were super comfortable (I even looked at the label for the sheets because I need them at home as they are so soft!) The location was perfect for a family with children as the Village is right outside the door with restaurants, ice cream shops, shopping and fun activities! The tram to the beach was great! We will be coming back and booking this same condo soon!! Thank you guys!!
