Family perfect
This worked great for my family! 3 yr old & 4 month old We used the pack’n play provided & put a twin mattress on the floor in the bunk room for my 3 yr old. Baby even had her own room, if needed the master closet is big enough for the pack’n play! Pool was perfect. Loved the quite neighborhood & big yard. Yes, still close enough to restaurants etc. Games in bunk room were an added bonus, as well as the cooler. We would stay again!

Perfect Spot for Relaxing Family Vacation!
This property was perfect for my family (my husband and I, my in-laws and our two young children). It was very clean, much better equipped than any other VRBO we have ever stayed in. The host could not have been nicer and more accommodating. She was very quick to respond to any questions and happy to help us in any way. Location was ideal for our family. Very close beach access, close to restaurants and shops but tucked away in a safe and quiet neighborhood. We loved having the golf cart to get around. The pool was amazing! My family had such a nice stay and we’ve already decided we can’t wait to come back here.

Lovely home in a quiet peaceful location!
We had the best week - the photos didn’t do this house justice. It was stocked with everything we needed. The furnishings were so tasteful and everything seemed brand new. The pool and backyard was our favorite part and the golf cart was icing on the cake. We had just a couple issues during our stay but Breann was amazing to work with and took care of everything within minutes. Loved the quieter end of 30A, had no trouble with traffic and the beach was a 2 minute golf cart ride away. Overall, just lovely.

Paradise!
My family really enjoyed our stay! The pool was AMAZING and gorgeous! We had some questions throughout the week and the property manager was so attentive and helpful. The kitchen had everything we needed to make home cooked meals and Publix was right down the street. The beach was a short walk/bike ride but Grayton Beach was our favorite. Deer lake was beautiful as well!

LATE SUMMER FUN
We just returned from a super fun week in 30A. This was our 2nd time in the area and it is such a beautiful & fun place to visit. The Thompsons home was the perfect size for our family of 7. Kids ranging 3-13. It was clean, one level, with a nice private backyard. Good sized pool, lots of seating options, turf, a small shed with everything we needed for the beach... wagon, several chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, cooler, and also pool toys & some floats. The neighborhood is quiet and access to the beach is super quick and easy (especially with the provided golf cart!) They also had 6 adult sized bikes that we didn't use as we had rented ebikes (HIGHLY RECOMMEND!). Home is on the more western end of 30A and is definitely quieter than Seaside and further east end. If we ever get to come back to this area we would not hesitate to stay in this home again! Thanks again!

Great location
We stayed with our family of 7 including a 3 and 14 yr old and it was the perfect house for us. Not too big, not too small. The location is great and the golf cart made it so easy to get back and forth to the beach quickly and easily. The backyard and pool were great and so relaxing. The lights in the pool made night swimming a fun time. We really love the area, the house and will definitely be back for sure.

Amazing stay at Gulfview Beach Escape
Everything about this stay was amazing! Breann's communication couldn't have been better. The house, amenities, and pool were perfect for our family of 7 (kids 17-8). My wife and I wanted to stay longer but work/kids don't go away. We will certainly be back to Santa Rosa and hope to stay at GBE again!! Thanks!!

The best backyard ever!
We stayed here for about 4 days prior to our longer stay. We had a smaller group so this house was perfect. Plenty of room for everyone. What we loved about it was the amenities. Golf cart was a huge plus to get us to shops and the beach, which is not a far ride at all. The master bedroom and bath were both super spacious. We had two kids sleep in the master with us. One in a pack n play that the house provided. Along with a sound machine, baby monitors and high chair. All a major bonus for us. We didn’t have to pay extra to rent it all. The backyard was the best we have experienced. Even the bigger homes we rent don’t touch this one. The turf, landscape, lighting and furniture were all awesome. It’s so beautifully done. And the larger shallow end of the pool was a huge plus for our babies to play in. A few things that I would share with families of littles is that there are a lot of doors in the home. Four doors in the main living area. If you are bringing safety knobs bring a combo of handles and knobs. The pool alarm is a nice feature but there is no security layer beyond the two doors that open up to backyard. It’s straight to the pool. The sliding door in the master didn’t have a safety bar which would have been an added bonus. The back porch got slippery with wet feet and there were a few spills. More rugs could probably fix that up. Overall, we loved this place and plan to rent here again! Breann was awesome at communication too!

Fantastic Week!
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Gulfview Beach Escape. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, the layout was perfect for our family of 7, and the backyard was amazing. The beach access was a short golf cart ride away. The beach was pretty crowded the first day so we decided to drive a little further to the "Fort Panic" access and there was a lot more room to spread out. It turned out to be a perfect beach day. We had some storms during our stay, which unfortunately knocked the power out. The owner was quick to respond and very helpful. I would highly recommend this vacation house and our family looks forward to returning!

Simply the BEST!
We had an amazing stay at Gulfview Beach Escape! Location was perfect, the private pool was wonderful, and everything was so clean and well-kept. We loved: the pool and outdoor areas (so many seating areas with easy to move outdoor furniture to make it perfect for eating outside to relaxing by the pool, and we loved the rocking chairs and swing on the front porch), the golf cart, the beach access, the beds (so comfy!), the labeled light switches, the well-stocked kitchen, the fully stocked pool shed (with pool noodles, floats, beach chairs, boogie boards and sand toys for the kids), a pantry (so helpful to store all of the food), the game closet, the quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for morning runs. Breann was so accommodating and easy to work with, providing clear and concise checkin and checkout instructions and answering a few questions we had. We loved our stay here and can’t wait to return next year!

About the host

Hosted by Breann Thompson

Host profile image
Hello! we are The Thompson Family, and for years we have been drawn to Santa Rosa Beach to enjoy the sugar-white sand beaches, turquoise Caribbean like waters and the quaint vibe that 30A has to offer. We have always dreamed of owning a vacation home to escape to and make memories as a family, but were nervous to take the leap of faith. As our kids started to get older, we knew we couldn't wait any longer...life is too short to wait on a dream. We wanted a place where we could enjoy family holidays, long weekends, vacation getaways and share with our friends and family too! Welcome to your new favorite place, Gulfview Beach Escape! We hope you love it here as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

When we saw the white picket fence and large wrap around porch, we knew this was the right place for us! We love that there are so many places to spread out and relax, and enjoy your time. When the ocean is angry, you can even hear the waves crashing from the front porch. Often we will sit in the rocking chairs out front with our coffee and just listen, it is pretty cool! We just love this neighborhood! It is a blend of full time residents and rentals, so you get that friendly charm or a hello wave on your morning walk and it just makes you feel right at home!

What makes this property unique

Gulfview Beach Escape was completely renovated in 2020 and is a single story, so it is convenient for many travelers young or young at heart. Our on-site golf cart makes transportation a breeze, and you can get to all of your local favorites in a few minutes time. We also have plenty of parking for your travel group, so no worries.
