Amazing Location/Property

We LOVED our stay here. It's such a great location to easily walk to the beach and restaurants. Greg is great at communicating and there are so many thoughtful details at the home that we enjoyed...blocks, games, comfortable beds, linens and towels, everything you need in the kitchen, not one but two luggage stands, two bottles of water, starter coffee and even soft toilet paper instead of the cheap stuff. Our five year old loved having her own bunk bed. Again, comfortable mattresses and bedding, and the extra half bath is really nice to have. We loved everything about our stay, except maybe the check out process. I haven't stayed at a place in a while that requires all the up front work (loading dishes, taking out all trash, stripping beds, cleaning out refrigerator etc). We love places that say enjoy your stay, please run the dishes and we've got the rest (i.e. you paid for the rest in your cleaning fee). Otherwise, A for this place! I'm sure we'll be back.

Awesome Condo!

Location was amazing! Close to the beach, and all the little stores, shops, restaurants in Santa Rosa. Condo was stocked with everything we needed (tp, soap) and the kitchen with spices, Pam and every appliance you might want. Beds were comfortable and place was immaculately clean. Decor beachy and welcoming. Loved the balcony and view of the pool/beach. Beach chairs/umbrella provided. Free parking close by. Look no further! This is the place to stay!

Would definitely stay here again!

The condo was cozy, comfortable, and fully equipped, exactly as advertised. The decor was nice, not over-the top beachy like a lot of places in the area. The location was convenient to the beach, and we enjoyed starting our mornings at the coffee shop in the building next door.

Wonderful location! Steps from the beautiful beach!

Our family loved the location. A quick 2 minute walk to the beach. Close to local eating and shopping. The condo was clean, updated, and perfect for a family of 4. So glad we chose the quite secluded Santa Rosa area to spend some much needed down time!

Gorgeous & Perfect for All

Great place to stay and hang out! Beach is gorgeous and almost private - perfect for anyone. The Cabana was beautifully decorated and you can tell owners take pride in their rental. We would definitely book again and actually looking for dates now! We loved the close proximity to all the quaint towns and fell in love with the 30A area. Can't wait for a return visit! Oh and pizza is fantastic and so convenient.

Great trip!

My husband and I had a great time staying in Santa Rosa Beach. The condo was perfect for us. It was the perfect size, the decor was great, it was well stocked with everything we needed, and very comfortable. We will definitely be returning. The only negative was the overwhelming amount of water that was still standing due to the storms that came through the area a week or so earlier. Hopefully the pool, walkways, and ponds will be repaired soon.

Perfect location

We stayed at Greg’s condo in April as a family of 4. The condo was clean, well-stocked, and in the perfect location. We were able to walk to the beach, restaurants, pools, shopping, ice cream… all within 2-3 minutes. The condo also had books, board games, and blocks that our 5 year old loved playing with the day it rained. Communication with the owner was quick and efficient. We go to 30A every year and would definitely pick this condo to stay at in the future.

Summer Vacation

This was our first trip to Gulf Place. We enjoyed our stay. The condo was beautiful and well furnished. The only kitchen essential we lacked on the trip was a tea pitcher. The walk to the beach is quick and easy. We loved the free beach service. The owners responded to questions in a helpful and timely manner. The only negative of the whole week was the bed. It was a very firm mattress with flimsy pillows and stained sheets. We did not use the bunk beds, but they are large and off the hallway in a little nook. They had more privacy than I expected from the pictures. We used the washer/dryer several times. It was free to use and accessible next to the elevators. The sounds from the other units were often heard through the walls, but that is to be expected in a middle unit. Overall, we had a positive experience in 211 and enjoyed our time there.

Why they chose this property

We love this area. You are minutes from some of the best dinning 30A has to offer. It's a 5 min walk to restaurants like Shunk Gulley Oyster Bar, Sunrise Ice Cream and Coffee, Pizza by the Sea , and then only a short drive to Paradiso, Stinky's Fish Camp, The Vue, Bud and Alley's, Old Florida Fish House, Cafe Thirty-A, George's, just to name a few. It also has great shopping and bike rentals nearby. Santa Rosa Beach is one of the prettiest beaches on 30A with it's crystal blue water and white sandy beach coastline. Come stay with us and I think you will fall in love with it just like we did!!!

What makes this property unique

One of the things we love about Gulf Place is it has 3 beach access points which makes it more exclusive and much less crowded! Gulf Place also has 3 swimming pools, 2 of which are heated hot tubs as well, and two are located very close to our unit. There is a pool view and partial ocean view from the unit. Also, the area on 30A is fabulous for restaurants, water activities and shopping. Destin and Panama City Beach are only a short drive away!
