Description

PRIVATE BEACH • GATED COMMUNITY • COURTYARD POOL • PET FRIENDLY!
A one of a kind private vacation rental that will keep you coming back for years to come! This is a private, gated coastal retreat just a 3-minute walk to your own gated beach access—no fighting for space, no long walks, no chaos. Tucked inside one of Miramar Beach’s most desirable gated communities, this 3000 sq ft luxury home is built around a fully private courtyard with its own pool, giving you a rare level of privacy you simply don’t get at the beach. No elevators. No shared hallways. No packed public beach entrances. Just your group, your space, and the Gulf exactly how it should be. And yes—bring the dog. This home is now pet-friendly!
Highlights:
- Gated community = quiet, secure, no through traffic
- Gated private beach access (3-minute walk)
- Private courtyard pool (not overlooked by neighbors)
- Sleeps large groups comfortably with multiple hangout zones
- Pet-friendly (rare this close to the beach)
- Perfect mix of privacy + walkability

Your Own Private Coastal Compound
This home is designed differently than most beach rentals—the courtyard layout creates a true “resort feel” where everything centers around your private pool and outdoor living space.
Wake up → coffee on the porch → quick walk to a quiet beach → back to your pool → grill + drinks → fire at night. That’s the rhythm here.

Outdoor Living (Where You’ll Spend Most of Your Time)
- Fully enclosed private courtyard pool
- Outdoor fireplace for laid-back evenings
- BBQ grill + outdoor dining setup
- Lounge chairs for sun + relaxation
- Covered front porch for coffee or shade breaks
- Direct, easy walk to gated beach access

Main Living Area (Built for Groups)
- Vaulted ceilings + open, airy design
- Large living room with comfortable seating
- Open-concept kitchen + dining
- TV setup for movies, sports, or game nights

Kitchen & Dining
- Updated modern kitchen
- Bar seating for casual meals
- Full dining area for group dinners
- Stocked with essentials
Sleeping Setup (Spacious + Flexible)

Primary Suite (Private Retreat):
- King bed
- Private balcony overlooking pool
- Luxury ensuite with soaking tub + walk-in shower

Bedroom 2 (First Floor Convenience)
- King bed
- Direct access to pool
- Ensuite bathroom

Bedroom 3: King bed
Bedroom 4: Queen bed

Designed to comfortably handle families + multiple groups without feeling cramped

Extras That Actually Matter:
- 3,000 sq ft (room to spread out)
- Multiple TVs throughout
- Beach gear included (chairs, cart, towels, boogie board)
- Community pool access (backup option)
- Pet-friendly

Location: The Sweet Spot of Miramar Beach
You’re in the Frangista Beach area—one of the most sought-after pockets because it’s:
- Close to everything
- But still quiet and relaxed
- Walkable to the beach (huge advantage)

Nearby: - Private beach access (3-minute walk)
- Scenic Gulf Drive restaurants + beachfront dining
- Silver Sands Outlets + Destin Commons
- Golf, fishing charters, water sports
- Family attractions like Big Kahuna’s

Things to Note:
- 25+ to book (must stay during reservation)
- No smoking/vaping ($500 fee)
- Starter supplies provided
- Digital guidebook sent before arrival
- Pet-friendly (nonrefundable fee)

Bottom Line:
If you want a true beach house experience—with privacy, space, and easy beach access—this is it.

Homes like this (gated + private pool + walk to beach + pet-friendly) are rare… which is exactly why they book quickly.
