Wonderful House!

This was the third time we spent our Spring Break at Sandy Feet. We love it! We enjoyed the layout where we could all cook delicious seafood meals while visiting and watching the final four basketball. The porch is a lovely place to read. We could easily walk to the beach and ride our bikes from the home. The home is clean and comfortable! We will return soon!!!

Wonderful summer getaway

This is the perfect location for busy summer months. It’s a quick walk to the beach and restaurants, but far enough from the crowded areas to feel quiet and private. Gary is a great host and the check in process is very simple.

Perfect Property

We travel to Santa Rosa Beach every year (20 years) and we were very impressed with this property. It was very clean, spacious and had all of the amenities that we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked for any type of cook. We rented bikes and the path to the beach and Gulf Place was easy and accessible. The neighborhood was quiet. We will definitely consider staying in this property again. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property.

Great House!

We spent last year's spring break at this house and we booked to stay again this year. We had a wonderful time! The house is clean and comfortable. The bedrooms are roomy and the beds are comfortable. We love the open floor plan. We all took turns cooking using the well-stocked kitchen and the charcoal grill in the back of the house. We enjoyed reading on the shaded front porch. The location is a short walk to the beach and to some restaurants. With our own bikes we hopped on the bike path that goes right by the house. We will definitely return!

Great location close enough to beach and shops

Gary was great host. Our group needed more parking and he had a plan for that. Quiet neighborhood just off a county road that has a great walking sidewalk to beach, and shops and restaurants. Kitchen has all the amenities for cooking just about anything. Great floor plan for 2 families as 2 bedrooms are basically master, plus 3rd bedroom and upstairs living room can sleep kids. Living area downstairs accommodated the 6 of us for meals and hanging out. Definitely will consider next trip to 30A!
