About this property

Salty Air Retreat A Comfy WATERFRONT Home

Your beach retreat is directly off of the bay, and across the street from the ocean waves. Walk to the beach, restaurants, and shops right from your home. A 5 minute drive takes you into Navarre, and a 20 minute scenic drive down the island brings you to Pensacola Beach.

This island townhouse has been designed and equipped to provide you with the perfect beach vacation; whether you are coming to relax and unwind, to seek adventure, or to do both! There are three stories, comfortable and roomy, with 3 large balconies and deck. There is private parking for 2 cars under the house and the community pool is just to the right.

Both comfy bedrooms and the large bath are on the top (third) floor, as well as the laundry. The master bedroom has a king size bed, 55" smart TV, walk in closet, and private deck providing breathtaking views of both the bay and gulf. The second bedroom has a comfy queen size bed, large closet and 55" smart TV. The second floor has a large living room with stunning views of the bay, dining room, fully equipped and stocked kitchen with top of the line Kitchen Aid appliances, and also a second full bath. This is where the queen murphy bed and twin sleeper are found. There is also a 55" smart TV and Bose bluetooth speaker. There are 2 decks on this level. One large deck off the living room that is perfect for lounging and visiting while watching for dolphins and seabirds. The other smaller one is off of the kitchen and has been designed to be a child's play area with playhouse and dining set.

The bottom floor has the large deck which is the ultimate gathering area. There is a large gas grill and brand new dining set, plus hammocks. Here you will also find locked storage that has all the beach essentials (beach chairs, sand toys, life vests for your littles, and a cart to transport). We also have a SUP board available for guest use as well as two beach cruisers.

Many come here year after year because of our amazing location! Sandcastle Townhomes is easily accessible and is the first complex on the right after crossing the bridge. Therefore the public beach, the pier, restaurants, wildlife, and nightlife are easily walkable. There's no need for a car once you've arrived. Walk across the street to watch parades and the blue angels as they do their final fly by. From your back deck enjoy live concerts from Juana's newly constructed outdoor stage.
Swimming pool just to the front of the home.
Sound front beach directly out back.
Gulf front beach is a few minutes walk across the street.
Lit fishing pier with open dock slips for your boat (largest private pier on island!) on site. Access code to pier is given at check in.
Juana's Pagoda, which has all sorts of beach rentals, food, and live music is just a few minutes walk down our beach.
Just a short drive away from Pensacola Beach, Fort Walton Beach, and Destin, where you can find more shopping, restaurants, and nightlife!

Other things to note
Very relaxed, small waterfront community with a great view of the bustle of activity on the water of dolphins, sailors, kayakers, fishermen, and a plethora of sea life.

Wonderful Stay #4

This was our fourth visit the to the Salty Air in Navarre. Always a very clean and welcoming condo, perfect for families and pool just a few feet away. Communication with our host is always excellent. Close access to beach, beach front restaurants and short drive to Destin. Highly suggest checking out the best porch view in Navarre!

We love the Salty Air Retreat

This was our second time staying at this property, and it was the second time we absolutely loved it. We saw lots of dolphins in the bay from the balcony and fished from the pier. The hostess was the best, making our entire stay from check in to check out a breeze. I highly recommend this place to everyone I know!

Relaxing Navarre Getaway

This property was perfect. The host answered everything immediately. The views from all the balconies were beautiful. Furniture and beds were all comfortable. Saw dolphins in the bay several times and caught all different kinds of fish from the private pier while jamming out to the live music at the nearby waterfront restaurant. We cannot wait to come back again with our kids!

Nice

Location is great. Walk to beach, pier, restaurants. Cameras were a surprise viewing outside enjoyment areas. Roaches were seen throughout. Cooking pans etc. we’re very old and lacking a lot. Host was very fast to communicate. Storage shed was a complete mess. Lighting was very poor in upstairs.

Perfect relaxation

We were so pleased with our stay. The location was wonderful. The place was a perfect size for our family of 5 but could have accommodated the grandparents too. We could easily walk to the beach and multiple restaurants. We loved the view of the sound and the shallow, calm water was great for the kids. It was a wonderful stay.

Wonderful Stay.

Highly recommend this perfect location. This was our third time at the Salty Air Retreat. Always clean, great communication from the host. Close to Destin, parks, food trucks and most importantly the beach. Can't beat the porch too.

Slice of heaven

This location is amazing. Our kids loved the bay so much they didn’t want to go to the beach a few times. It’s a 30-foot walk from the deck to your own “private” beach. Janelle was easy to communicate with and made our stay enjoyable.

Second stay in paradise!

This was our family's second stay in Navarre at the Salty Air Retreat! Have no doubt this is an absolutely beautiful location right on the sound of the gulf with quick access to the beach, restaurants, and close access to local attractions. The property itself is beautiful, clean, and has a perfect set up for your family vacation on the porch overlooking the water. Looking forward to our next stay in the best kept secret in Navarre!

About the host

Hosted by Janelle

Host profile image
I am a childcare provider from rainy Washington state who has fallen in love with the sun and sand of Navarre, Florida! I love animals, nature, and all kinds of people.

Why they chose this property

We started coming to the area 6 years ago when our daughter attended college in Pensacola. I have traveled all over the world but never had seen beaches and sunsets as gorgeous as what I found here off the Gulf. We have been trying to come to visit every chance we get to enjoy the beautiful emerald green waters and white sand, along with the exciting fishing!

What makes this property unique

This beautiful property checks every box we were looking for: short walk to the beach, stunning views from the large windows, and a dock right outside the door for my husband to fish. We even get to watch dolphins from our deck which is a bonus! The calm waters of the bay have been a surprising benefit. It is perfect for paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming and watching incredible birds and fish.
