About this property

Sanctuary at Redfish Luxurious Beach Resort Experience

Sanctuary at Redfish is a unique 14 acre luxurious gated resort sitting between 30A and the gulf of Mexico. The property provides breathtaking lake and gulf views. Big Redfish Lake is a rare natural phenomenon known as a "coastal dune lake". Only a few places in the world are fortunate enough to have favorable conditions for these lakes to form and they provide a unique environment for a diverse collection of wildlife normally in separate fresh water or salt water ecosystems. Sanctuary at Redfish preserves as much of the natural vegetation as possible to create an environment of serenity and privacy unmatched along 30A. Great for bird watching and you may see the occasional deer.

Sanctuary at Redfish provides a long list of first class amenities. The expansive pool deck consists of four separate pools, including one adult pool, one zero-entry pool and one heated pool which is great for children. There are also two hot tubs. A complimentary water taxi is available consistently throughout the day, to take you the short distance, across the dune lake to the beach. This scenic and relaxing way to the beach is offered from March 1- October 31, from 9am until 6pm. You can also walk to the beach down the board walk, about a 10 minute stroll. We offer complimentary beach service which includes two beach chairs and an umbrella that awaits you at the beach for the duration of your stay. You can take advantage of the complimentary canoes and kayaks for your use, on a first come first serve basis. There are 5 weber gas grills, excellently maintained and a fire pit behind the pools for your use. There is a full service fitness center with water fountain, men and women showers.

Paved and Non-paved bike trails are accessed either in front of the complex or just down the street. Scenic Hwy 30A runs in front of the complex connecting Blue Mountain Beach with Grayton Beach, Water Color, Seaside and Rosemary Beach resorts to mention a few and the paved bike trails run the length of these towns and more. Bicycle rentals are available close to the complex. Also, a public beach and public parking is located about 6 blocks from Sanctuary at Redfish.

This spacious condo has been newly renovated and updated. It has 3 bedrooms, 3 and 1/2 baths, full laundry. The master suite has a king bed, tv with blue ray player, walk in closet, large jetted tub and balcony access. Guest room one has a queen bed, Twin bed, private bath with shower and TV. Third guest room has king bed, TV with full private bath. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, refrigerator with double ice maker. The kitchen is stocked to a chefs delight. Fully equipped with a Keurig and 12 cup full pot coffee maker, electric tea kettle, and electric wine opener. There is a breakfast bar with bar stools on the kitchen island and a formal dining table that seats six. This unit has 10 ft. ceilings with Travertine floors in bathrooms, hallways and kitchen. The entire unit has been recently painted and new porcelain tile in all the bedrooms and living room. The balcony over looking the nature preserve is furnished and a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or your evening cocktail. We hope you will enjoy our home away from home as much as we do.

Family Beach Vacation
Beautiful property. Love the renovations. The boat shuttle was easy to use and having a chair and umbrella setup by the ocean was great. Enjoyed the pool area (especially the adults only pool). Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We would book this place again.

Beautiful and Peaceful
We had a wonderful, relaxing week. The condo was spotless at check in, and was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, etc. The back patio is so peaceful, a wonderful place to watch the deer and birds in the morning. It’s very convenient that each bedroom has its own private bathroom. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful condo
This condo was absolutely beautiful! We love Sanctuary at Redfish. It is amazing and not crowded at all. The amenities are phenomenal and having the option to paddleboard or kayak in the lake while also having access to the beach is second to none. Definitely recommend Sanctuary as well as this unit!

Everything we expected and more.
We have stayed at Redfish for the past few years. This is by far the best condo we’ve stayed in except for the view. However, it was quiet where we were, and wildlife can be seen all around. The beds are very comfortable. We cooked in the condo several meals and there was every appliance and cooking utensil we needed. The 2 chair 1 umbrella set up is a good deal as I always purchase another set since we need 4 since and we choose not to take our own. We love boat captain Kristina! I would definitely recommend this condo. We hope to book again for next year.

Great condo and location
We loved the condo and the unique set up of the beach. It is such an easy ride over on the pontoon boat to the beach. My kids loved playing in the dune lake as much as the ocean! Condo was a nice set up with seperation of each room so everyone had privacy. Kitchen was well stocked even with spices and K cups which we appreicated. Even left some of our own for future guests! Owners very communicative when i had questions. Thank you!

Beautifully kept and well appointed
What a beautiful property. Everything from furniture in good shape, to stocked spices, every available cooking appliance and accessible complex was perfect. I am a wheelchair user and was able to get nearly everywhere independently on the property. I suggest property management adjust the pool deck lift so it can be operated by the wheelchair user independently. (Likely a key turn). My kids adored the pools. Seeing deer from the balcony was a morning treat. The walls are well built and there is zero neighbor noise. Everything was just beautiful. The hosts are excellent and very responsive. We were able to snag a few extra days and really enjoyed them.

A Vrbo Favorite!
This property was one of the most beautiful, well stocked, highest quality properties we have ever stayed at through Vrbo. The quality of everything at the condo was top notch which makes such a difference when cooking meals and relaxing at our “home away from home”. We appreciated how well stocked everything was from coffee pods and spices for cooking to aluminum foil and plastic wrap. Those small details make all the difference! The owners/property managers were quick to respond to our questions and great to work with. The short boat ride to the beach was fun and relaxing and the chairs and umbrella included on the beach were great! The pool area with multiple pools and jacuzzis made things feel private and uncrowded. The grills in the pool area were great too and we enjoyed grilling out while enjoying a refreshing swim. We definitely plan to return and will look to use this same condo again.

Wouldn’t change a thing!
We are always on the hunt for a great, family friendly property that will feel at least a little bit like a vacation for us too. This was the first time we’ve booked in the 30A area, and I can’t imagine any place being better. It was clean, fit our family of 5 (3 kids ages 3-7), and in an ideal location. The porch on the back was nice to spend time playing games as a family. If you’re looking for a lot of restaurants within walking distance, this may not be your place to stay, but we cooked most dinners in. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed (blender, pots and pans, and even a cheese grater). We are already planning our next trip!

Second time to this property and condo. Love staying here and this unit is always very clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We enjoy the outdoor area to watch birds and deer walking by. Also enjoy the pontoon service to beach and beach chair setup. Will be back again! Thank you to Philip for early check in as well.

Beach Trip
The condo was above our expectations. Nicely decorated and had everything we needed. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Loved the pools, hot tub and the beach was beautiful. The only negative was the steps to get off the pontoon. There were no hand rails and made it difficult for my mother to get off. But there is a board walk not to far just a longer walk. We had a great stay!

Perfect Family Vacation
This was our fourth summer at Sanctuary at Redfish. We love the property and everything it has to offer. The pools are fantastic and always one of my kids' favorite activities of our vacation. The boat ride to the beach is quick and easy and the boat captains are friendly and fun. We loved the condo! Compared to the other condos we have stayed at Sanctuary, it was by far the most well stocked in the kitchen. It had everything! We even got to try some new favorite spices! Loved the location of the condo on the first floor. It was at the opposite end of the building from the pools (i.e. very quiet). The owner's were easy to communicate with and prompt with their responses. We had a fantastic vacation and would definitely recommend this condo to anyone interested in the Santa Rosa Beach area!

Excellent property with great amenities
This condo was really great for our family. Our kids loved the multiple pools and the access (via pontoon boat) to a quiet area of the beach with an umbrella and chairs set up daily was such a nice amenity! The furnishings were all up to date, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen is one of the best equipped of the rentals we've stayed in. We can't wait to plan our next vacation to Sanctuary at Redfish!

This condo is in a great location and was super clean. The boat taxi was a treat. The ocean did not cooperate, but the heated pool for the kids meant water play remained an option. Nearby food was very good. Host was responsive and gracious.

Beautiful condo with access to a beautiful beach
We loved staying in the condo! It was much bigger than we expected and worked amazingly for our family! Our only con was the walk to the beach was a little far for sunburned feet and the boat only runs for a specific time during the day. But Captain Bob and Captain Kris made the boat rides worth it and the beach was gorgeous and much better than places we have stayed closer to Destin! Would definitely rent again.

Beautiful condo and property with great location
This property and condo were by far the cleanest and most private we’ve ever stayed! First time to Blue Mountain, but have stayed in Okaloosa, Destin, PCB. We will for sure be coming back to Santcuary at Redfish! The pictures don’t do this condo justice. It’s beautiful, spacious and clean. And we are very picky about cleanliness. The kitchen stock was the best here and everything very comfortable. We rented bikes and enjoyed biking to the beach boardwalk and also used the pontoon service which was great. Pool was beautiful and clean and the headed pool was actually warm. Great location to general store, food, and ice cream. We will be back for sure! Thank you Philip for sharing your condo with us!
