5 Minute Walk To The Beach On 30A! Family Friendly. 5 Bedrooms, 3 Baths. 2 Pools

Calling all mermaids and seafarers….shoppers and land lovers! Find your perfect beach retreat at Beyond the Sea in the adorable Old Florida Village community in Santa Rosa Beach, FL. 5 minute walk to the beach. A stone’s throw from the pools. A half a block away from bicycle paths that connect all of the charming beach communities along 30-A. Come for a visit and create wonderful vacation memories.

OUR HOME HAS BEEN RECENTLY UPDATED WITH ALL NEW APPLIANCES AND A FRESH COAT OF PAINT. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED OUTDOOR LIGHTING OUT BACK!

Beyond The Sea is a quintessential beach house. From the moment you arrive, you will be greeted with style and comfort. Open the doors and breathe in the ocean vibe…from your first step in the door, the light airy decor and special touches make this truly a great home away from home.

There is plenty of space in our 4 bedroom 3 bath home for your family to spread out and relax. The main level has an open floor plan with a comfy living area, well stocked kitchen, and a casual dining table. The main level also has a bright bedroom with an iron queen size bed and a bathroom with a semi-circular shower directly across.

Follow the pine staircase to the second floor and you will find three additional bedrooms. The master bedroom includes a queen size bed with luxury bedding, an en-suite bathroom with double shower heads, and private access to the second level deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee before heading to the beach. One guest bedroom greets you with warm cheerful colors and a comfy queen bed. The other guest bedroom on this floor is coastal-calm and is furnished with two twin beds. There is a shared bathroom for these guest rooms.

On the third level you will discover the tower room which is perfect for the kids to play or teens to relax. Decorated in bright colors, this room will put a smile on your face and will keep your children entertained when returning from a long day in the sunshine. It has a bunk bed with a pull-out trundle.

Not all the enjoyable moments happen inside! Spend the mornings with a book on our quiet front porch. In the evenings, relax in the backyard.

Old Florida Village is a charming neighborhood with winding streets lined with 'seaside-cottage-style' homes, lush landscaping and a family atmosphere. Beyond the Sea is one of closest homes to the beach (less than 700 yards/ 5 minute walk to Gulfview Heights Beach Access). We are three homes away from one of two neighborhood pools. Our home has a convenient outdoor shower to rinse away the sand from an enjoyable day of playing in the crystal clear water and basking on the white sand beach. Hang your beach towels and store sandy shoes on the inviting side porch.

So what’s there to do around here besides the beach and pool? Everything!! The shopper in you will appreciate the huge outlet mall as well as the upscale boutiques, quaint gift shops, big souvenir emporiums and art galleries galore. Kids going stir crazy? Mini-golf, movie theaters, water parks, and pirate cruises just to name a few are all less than 20 minutes away.

One of our favorite things to do is take advantage of the miles of wide scenic trails along 30-A. It’s a great place to walk, run or go cycling as a family. We love that with our family of six, even our smallest one can enjoy a safe scenic ride. Stop at one of the locally owned coffee or ice cream shops and stroll through the charming towns you will pass along the way. Santa Rosa Beach is home to two state parks, coastal dune lakes and protected dunes. It’s the perfect place for fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, or bird watching. For the golfers, beautiful Santa Rosa Golf Club is just two miles away along with many other award winning courses nearby.

After a fun filled day, grab dinner at one of the many fabulous restaurants within walking distance or just a short drive down the scenic coastal highway. Tired of being on the go while on vacation? Stay in and relax, grill out for dinner, and enjoy a family movie night from our DVD library or play one of the many games available for your enjoyment.

We’ve thought of everything to make your getaway at Beyond the Sea comfortable and relaxing so pack light! You’ll especially enjoy the uncommon extras in our home including:

*High Speed WIFI
*Keyless Entry
*Lots of movies and games
*Beach towels
*Beach cart
*Beach umbrella
*Coffee maker as well as a Keurig
*Blow dryer
*Pack & Play, booster seats, baby gate
*Gas grill

A Happy Spring Break

My family and I have stayed in Old Florida Village at least once a year for the past 15 years. We love Santa Rosa Beach. For us, the Old Florida Village is perfect. Two swimming pools (more important when my sons were younger), gated, quiet, across the street from the beach. It has a "neighborhood feel" even though you're at the beach.Beyond the Sea was perfect for our family of four. Clean and well equipped with modern appliances, televisions, and bedrooms on all three floors. Plenty of room to spread out. The front porch and porch swing were great for reading, scrabble playing, or relaxing. The house is near at the front of Old Florida Village, which makes it even closer to the beach and provides for easier entrance to and exit from the neighborhood. The owners are very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend.

Perfect Getaway!

My family absolutely loved our stay at Beyond the Sea. We are a family of five (7 and 9 year old) and our pup! There was plenty of space for everyone and the kids loved the Tower Room! It was the perfect place for them to call home for the week. The balcony from the Master Suite was also perfect! We could sit and enjoy coffee or an adult beverage at night and enjoy the family friendly neighborhood (not loud at all). From the time we booked, we had excellent communication with the owners. Whenever we had a question, there was a response within minutes. They made it easy! Beyond the Sea had everything you needed for a successful beach trip! There were beach toys, chairs, bikes, umbrellas, pool noodles and a wagon. The walk was super easy (about an 8 minute walk to the beach at most). The house is at the front of the complex so it was so easy to make the trip back and forth to the beach to let our pup out! When we were booking Beyond the Sea, we debated on it because of the distance from the beach that previous visitors mentioned. It was easy and quick! We enjoyed morning walks to the local coffee shop (Sunrise Coffee), local restaurants (Stinky’s, Goatfeathers, Los Rancheros, and Grayton Seafood). On the walk to the beach there is a rental place that also has amazing snacks and ice cream! We loved the Jalepeno and Mac and Cheese bites. So delish! The ice cream is also amazing and you get a ton per scoop. This house is super close to so many things! We were about 15 minutes from Baytowne Wharf - super fun place for families! We rented a boat in Destin (Crab Island) and the drive back was longer due to the traffic. I would recommend not driving back to the house from Destin in the late afternoon. I’ve been coming to this area for the past 30 years and the traffic continues to get worse and worse! Overall, Beyond the Sea was wonderful! It has everything you need to have a perfect vacation! Highly recommend and we hope to be back!

We had such a great time visiting the beach while having the creature comforts of home. The house was well outfitted with everything we needed for our stay. Even on the rainy days, we had games to play, movies to watch, and books to read. It really is a quick easy walk to the beach or food, and a short bike ride to the estuary. Sandestin and Seaside are about 15 minutes either way for more shopping or food.
