About this property

Gulf Front Cottage with Beach Access In Private Gated Community

Long term rentals welcome. Please reach to me for details. Please WATCH THE VIDEO to appreciate the views and the condition of this property with direct Gulf of Mexico access https://youtu.be/R-ihjZbHW3A. Reverse Living Floor plan provides gulf front views from the open concept kitchen, dining and family room. The vaulted ceilings upstairs enhances the space and feeling of openness. Enjoy unobstructed Gulf views from a huge covered balcony (the empty lot between the house and the beach is vacant which we own it as well with no plans to build till 2028). The kitchen is perfect for the hosting your friends and family. Relax and get away from it all in a the huge master downstairs with its private bath. The Kids will love their own get away in a private bunk room with a private bath. If you have a few little ones, or if you just needs some privacy for reading, an additional room is available off the master. This cozy spot has a daybed with trundle and room for a stow away crib. The house is equipped with a private outdoor shower and the direct beach access is less than steps away. Beach chairs and an umbrella are set up daily by La Dolce Via who also rents bikes, paddle boards, Kayaks and can arrange a Bonfire on the beach for you. Unlike crowded beach towns on 30A, Carillon Beach has a private entry with 24 hour security. You can let your kids explore on their own and feel safe, yet you are less than 3 miles from Rosemary Beach. The closest pool is less than a block away - see the map in the photo section. Although the listing shows no cancelations, I will work with you to move your dates. You can rent a golf cart from Coastal Cars and Carts (www.coastalcc.net). Please note Carillon beach charges a $35 access and parking fee per automobile which is collected when you download the link to get your QR code for automated entry into the community.

Perfect house and location for our family of four. We love the gated neighborhood of Carillon Beach. Slice of Heaven offers great beachfront views and access which is importantly when you have young chidren and are making numerous trips back and forth from the beach. Great communication with the hose and house manager as questions arose. We will definitely be back!

This was the second time staying at this property and our 10th stay in Carillon Beach. The view is amazing and being adjacent to the walk over is clutch if you have children. Our 12 year old and 8 year old daughters loved the bunk bed set up. And we all loved the gulf view of the deck.

Truly is a Slice of Heaven!

Absolutely love this place! Carillon Beach is the best private gated community with less people and quiet. Home is best one we have been to, of our 4 years coming here. Gorgeous views and wonderful accommodation. House manager was outstanding and kind to work with and home well maintained and had everything we needed. Nothing can compare to the view of gulf from the windows and balcony. Wish we could come back here next year but already taken! Will try again.

Amazing View and convenience

We rent a place in Carillon every summer. This was the first time at this property and I can say that the view and adjacent walkover make it a place we’d like to rent again. It was perfect for our family of four which consists of an 11 and 7 year old.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Drotar

Host profile image
Bill and Barb have been Owners in Carillon Beach since 2008. As full time residents of Tulsa, we look forward to spending as much time as we can with our family and friends in this truly unique community. The only bad thing about this community is that we have to leave it far too often. We hope you enjoy our property and make Carillon a regular vacation spot for your family and friends.

Why they chose this property

Quiet Beach Getaway. Close enough to the excitement of 30A but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet on the most expansive private beach in the region.

What makes this property unique

Direct Gulf Front in Private Community. Close to everything the Panhandle of Florida has to offer.
