About this property

Sandy Seahorse ground floor condo, close to beach & pool, pet friendly, grill

Welcome to the Garlands Getaways Sandy Seahorse condo, located in 30A along the stunning Emerald Coast.

Positioned in Santa Rosa Beach (about 3.5 miles from Seaside) Garlands Getaways Sandy Seahorse is a compact but cozy 2 bedroom, 2 bath ground floor condo just a 3-leisurely-minute stroll along flat ground to the amazing white sand beach and perfect for a single family or small group of friends. It features a living room with Smart TV that is as comfortable as it is refreshing and a kitchen that is well-equipped to serve up any meals for your group, and seating for 7.

The master bedroom offers a queen bed. The guest room features a comfy queen bed and a trundle bed. Both bedrooms have smart TVs. Each bathroom offers a shower/tub combo. The sofa in the living room is a sleeper.

A washer/dryer and high speed fiber internet is available for your use.

We have a covered patio for dining al fresco or simply soaking up the Gulf Coast warmth. Resort grills are available for your use, and a small, grassy area just outside our villa offers space for little ones to burn off energy while staying in sight.

We do welcome furry friends (maximum of two dogs) with a non-refundable pet fee of $100 for one or $150 for two. NOTE: Walton County does not allow visitors' dogs on any of its beaches. A dog beach is located about 20 min away in PCB, and there is a dog park nearby as well (not on the beach).

The Resort offers one regular and one seasonally heated pool in very close proximity to our villa--one of which is just across from the front corner of our building, about 30 steps away. There are also tennis courts and a shuttleboard/cornhole court available. And we are just steps away from the white sand beaches of 30A.

Primary renter must be at least 25 years old, sign a rental agreement within 48 hours of booking, be present for the duration of the stay, and agree to a $300 damage deposit hold (not a charge) placed on the guest's credit card prior to arrival that will be released after his/her uneventful stay. No smoking or parties allowed. We provide starter amounts of soaps and paper products (like tp, paper towels, and trash bags). Please plan to bring/buy additional if your stay is longer than a couple of days.

BEFORE YOU BOOK - IMPORTANT NOTES:

We have specific BEACH AREAS our guests may use. Due to the private beach allocations in Walton County, our area of beach is a .2 mile, flat, easy walk (about 3-4 minutes) down a side street to the west or walk east or west down the beach itself to either beach access. You can play in the water or in the wet sand anywhere. The resort also offers free tram service from the complex to these areas during high season (mid March to mid September).

Great vacation spot

My family really enjoyed staying here. This place is located in a beautiful area with great access to all the local places to visit. Unit is well stocked with all the necessities. Description and photos are very accurate. The unit is not very big but plenty of space for our family of 4. Hosts were super responsive with any questions we had. We loved that it was a first floor unit. Walk to the beach was quick and the beach is absolutely beautiful. My only issue with the unit would be that the bed in the main bedroom was not very comfortable but doable. We will definitely keep it at the top of our list for future stays in the area. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home!

This condo not only was spacious but quiet. It was clean and affordable. Quick walk to the beach. Grilling right outside the condo. Everything is convenient even the best restaurants within 5 minutes from condo. Would love to come back. Kim & Dana

An uncozy flat in a great location

Great location but everything else about the flat was an oversell. The flat isn't big enough for 6 people and it definitely wasn't bright and airy. The flat was also not very clean and it felt claustrophobic because of the furnishings. Lastly, the bed was "lumpy" and uninviting. The public beach access is small and gets crowded quickly. It was unfortunate about the private beach space that wasnt accessible to us. The property manager was responsive. Overall, we enjoyed our stay nit because of the flat but because of what we got to do and experience.

Great stay!!

The listing was accurate and showed where everything is and the pictures gave a good feel for the unit. Communication ahead of time was clear and easy to follow and made check in and out very easy. It is not right by the beach but was a great first floor unit that made walking our small dogs easy and we enjoyed the pretty little lake across the parking lot. The beach was just a short walk and the provided beach chairs that you could carry like a back pack made it easy to spend time at the beach. We had a great stay!!

Small, Dated and towels with stains

The place was dated. I drove in at midnight and had to search for my condo for 15 plus minutes because the instructions said my building was number 11. I finally realized my building was number 10 because my condo number started with a 10. I walked through the door and the place didn't smell very fresh and was much, much smaller than the pictures online. Towels were stained. The location was really great and so was the shuttle to and from the beach.

We really enjoyed this cute condo close to the beach! We brought our small dogs, so it was perfect that this unit is on the ground floor. The condo complex was tucked away from all of the traffic in 30A. We had no complaints!

Loved our stay at BSV!

We loved our stay at Meghan's condo! It was clean, convenient, and just as described. The private beach was very nice, seeing as how we were there during a very busy week. The walk wasn't too bad, especially if you could catch a ride on the golf cart. Would definitely stay here again!

Difficult Location

Condo, pool, and area around it were fine and owner was very responsive. Did not like finding out that the distance to area of the beach we had to be in was much more than I expected, did not like the lack of responsiveness of the chair people. The shuttle helped some and the people driving were lovely but not always available. Would be nice to have water and ice in refrigerator. Decor was attractive and comfortable but condo and porch was small for four people.

Family-friendly

We enjoyed our stay! The condo was very clean and decorated very cute. It had all the necessities and large TVs that were easy to use which is always a plus during game season. The location was secluded so we felt safe and we were also able to meet a lot of people staying at Beach Villas. Very easy walk or bike ride to the beach. We loved that we didn’t have to walk far and the views were amazing. 2 pools and plenty of secluded neighborhood roads to ride bikes nearby.

About the host

Hosted by Megan Hicks

Host profile image
We are Dan and Michelle Garland and we love our lake/beach properties that we manage (with our good friend and co-host Megan) as Garlands Getaways. Our tight-knit family of 6 (+1 furry family member) lives in NE Atlanta and includes kids that range from high school to college plus two fun-loving parents who believe life by the water makes life in general better.

Why they chose this property

We love the 30A area for it's lack of hustle and bustle, leisurely bike-riding atmosphere, gorgeous white sand and emerald water. With an abundance of houses for larger groups, we wanted to have a condo that would also allow individual families or small groups to enjoy this amazing area. Beachside Villas offers precisely that. It's ideally located and the perfect size for up to 6 folks.

What makes this property unique

Ground floor location offers quick, easy, seamless access without waiting on elevators or lugging your gear very far! We're just a 3-minute stroll to the white sands of the Gulf Coast. The resort even offers grills for guest use -- if you can tear yourself away from one of the many phenomenal restaurants in the area.
