We had a wonderful stay at this vacation rental! The apartment was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable. One of the best features was the location—just a 2-minute walk to the beach, making it easy to enjoy the beautiful coastline whenever we wanted.The pool in the backyard was clean, relaxing, and perfect for cooling off after a day at the beach. We also loved being so close to Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach, with plenty of great restaurants, shops, and activities just a short drive or bike ride away.The property had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway, and the hosts clearly take great pride in keeping the apartment in excellent condition.

The host of Tide Nest is a true gem who is organized and intentional. The house’s features are all updated and very clean. The location really is steps from the beautiful emerald coast beach, which when we stayed in January, we nearly had entirely to ourselves. The area was safe and well lit and a few minutes drive from beautiful downtown Rosemary Beach. Highly recommend and we look forward to returning to stay longer in the future.

I could go on and on.The property, the location, and the host are all absolutely top shelf. A bit of a throwback in a wonderful sort way. The condominium is comfortable, stylish yet cozy, and spotless. Little things are done well, and attention to detail is evident. The beach is close, easy to access, far less crowded and hence (for me) more beautiful than those of the townships a bit further down 30A. Don’t get me wrong. Not a thing wrong with those places; I’ve watched them all grow up over the last 50 years. They’re smartly and thoughtfully done, and fun to see. Go there for coffee, to shop, to dine, or just explore; Rosemary is only a 5 minute drive away. But for me, those are the places to visit, this is the place to stay.Thanks Nikki!

A wonderful place. Great location. All amenities I needed. I totally forgot sunscreen and there were some sunscreen there. I needed to do a lot of laundry. It was easy to do. I love the details. I looked in the freezer and there was ice packs for the cooler that they provided on the back porch. And one of the great things was the property manager named. Nikki was super communicative and willing to help. When I asked her about bike rental. I'll be back. Thank you so much!

About the host

Hosted by Nikki

Host profile image
I have 3 young kids age 7 and under! I love seeing the world through their eyes, traveling, and finding delicious food along the way! I aim to provide beautiful, clean spaces that others can come and make memories with their loved ones.

Why they chose this property

I love this neighborhood because it is so serene and peaceful, 1 minute walk to an uncrowded beach access, while still being walkable and bike-able to some of the best dining in 30A. It's the best of both worlds!

What makes this property unique

The location I think is ideal as a base to explore and adventure the Emerald Coast, and the value that you get from the studio cannot be beat. It's truly perfect for couples, small families, or a small group of friends!
