Beach Retreat

- Type: Homes

Welcome home to Beach Retreat! Whether it’s for a week-long getaway or an extended stay, we invite you to make this poolside cottage your ‘beach home away from home.’ Nestled along scenic 30A in the gated community of Old Florida Village, you’ll be a half-mile from the white-sand beaches of Florida’s famed Gulf Coast and just seconds from one of two neighborhood pools.
Each of Santa Rosa Beach Retreat’s three bedrooms boasts its own private deck, where you can enjoy relaxing vibes and palm tree views along with coffee, cocktails, or conversation—or maybe even a few moments alone, if that’s what you’re after. The master bedroom is upstairs and features a king bed, TV, two closets, and bathroom with dual sinks and shower heads. The second upstairs bedroom includes a queen bed, TV, ensuite bathroom, and a desk for remote school or work needs. The third bedroom, on the main floor, also features a queen bed, TV, dual nightstands, and private screened deck with seating for 2-4, as well as a dedicated workspace if needed. The third bathroom is adjacent to the main-floor bedroom and features a shower/tub. The kitchen is well-stocked, and there are plenty of excellent restaurants within less than a mile. A few favorites are Kith + Kin coffee, The Perfect Pig for happy hour, the upstairs bar/restaurant at Shunk Gulley for lunch or dinner with a view, Pecan Jack’s for a double-scoop of unique ice cream flavors, and Growler Garage for a flight of local brews.
*No more than two small pets (dogs under 25 pounds) are allowed, only with advance notice and permission. Exceptions as to size and number of pets can be made only with Emerald Coast Vacation Rentals permission in advance of arrival. A NON-REFUNDABLE PET FEE OF $224 IS REQUIRED

We had a wonderful stay. The home was incredibly well equipped, especially the kitchen and it had everything we needed for our longer stay. The neighborhood was very quiet, the location was perfect right across from the pool, and it was just a little over a 10-minute walk to the beach. We’d happily stay here again.- Reviewed On: 7/28/2026

My family and I had a great time. The house was perfect for us, located right next to the pool, and about a 10 minute walk to the beach. With the $200 Vaykgear credit received for booking the house for a week, we rented bikes at no cost to us and biked to the beach every day. We also loved this location on 30A and is always the area we try and stay in. Just a hint, the beach was never that crowded but if you want a for sure front row spot, take your stuff out early morning to claim it. You don’t have to stay and wait but just throw it out there and come back later.- Reviewed On: 6/25/2022
We had a wonderful time at this property. There was plenty of space for our group of 6. We enjoyed the balconies in every room and having the pool right next door. The beds were very comfortable and the house was impeccably clean. The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable was how bright it is in the bedrooms since about 6 am. The neighborhood was quiet and very well maintained. Overall a great place to stay.- Reviewed On: 6/16/2022

We visited Casa Seaesta in October with our two children, 11 & 8. It was a vey nice home in a beautiful neighborhood. The pool is right next door, but it was never loud or crowded. The house lay out is open and each bedroom is spacious. The kids loved having a TV in their rooms! The beach is a quick drive (approx. 3 min) so I would drop off the wife and kids with the beach gear and then park back at the house since public parking was tough to come by. Then it was about 5 to 10 minute walk to paradise! More than once my wife commented that this house was better stocked than any we stayed at before. They had coolers, umbrellas, a gas grill, and plenty of cooking utensils. There were plenty of games, as well. One night we walked down to Pecan Jacks for some ice cream after a family game night. Overall, we would definitely book here again the next time we visit if it is available. I hope this review helps, and I hope you enjoy your vacation!- Reviewed On: 11/3/2021
I stayed here Labor Day (2021) weekend with my boyfriend and 2 other couples and we absolutely LOVED our rental. Check in/out was super easy, this 2 story unit was clean and had the perfect layout for 3 couples. We each had our own bathrooms, the kitchen/dining/living room area was open for entertaining and the pool was steps outside our door. About a mile from the beach-too far to walk for us but perfect for bikes or a golfcart, which we rented. We will DEFINITELY return with other friends and/or family in the near future. It was a good 45 minute drive to Destin where we did water activities and shopped and bar hopped but you can NOT beat the price and setup plus there are a few yummy restaurants not to far away at all. Til next time. Thanks again!- Reviewed On: 10/3/2021

Family enjoyed having a house to retreat to after military ceremony’s. Location allowed for beach time, great dining options, walks, and comfort for long talks to catch up. WiFi was the only issue. We were never able to get it to connect.- Reviewed On: 5/31/2021
I am sorry to hear about the wifi issue, in the future, please let me know and I can have maintenance come by to repair the connectivity problem. Normally, just a quick power cycle of the modem/router will correct this. I am glad your family had a great experience on your beach trip!Emerald Coast Vacation Rentals staff
It was a great neighborhood!! The only thing it is a little hike to the beach without a golf cart!! Other than that our trip was great!!- Reviewed On: 7/26/2020
