Salt air moves easily through wide decks as the Gulf stretches out nearby, shifting colors throughout the day. Mornings begin with quiet coffee on shaded balconies, afternoons drift between the courtyard pool and the beach just steps away, and evenings settle into relaxed conversation carried by coastal breezes.
Designed for large groups, this home offers space to gather and room to spread out across the main house and a private carriage house. Multiple living areas create natural places to reconnect or unwind, whether you are sharing meals, watching a movie, or enjoying quiet downtime. Thoughtful layouts and indoor-outdoor flow keep the home feeling social yet unhurried.
Sleeping arrangements
The property features ten bedrooms across the main house and carriage house, offering a mix of king beds, queen beds, twin beds, and custom bunk rooms. King suites are located on multiple levels, some with private balconies overlooking the Gulf. Bunk rooms include queen-over-queen bunks, queen beds paired with bunks, and stacked twin XL bunks. Bathrooms include ensuite, detached, and shared layouts, allowing flexibility for larger groups.
Living spaces
Four separate living rooms give everyone space to settle in. A first-floor living area with a kitchenette and wet bar opens directly to the courtyard. Upper levels include additional living rooms with seating, TVs, and access to balconies. The carriage house adds privacy with its own living room and wraparound balcony.
Kitchen and dining
The main kitchen is equipped for group meals, featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas range, granite countertops, a wine cooler, and two dishwashers. A large dining table and bar seating support shared meals. A second full kitchen in the carriage house and additional kitchenettes make it easy to manage cooking across a full house.
Outdoor living
A private courtyard surrounds the pool, which is heated seasonally from October through May for an additional nightly fee. Lounge seating, outdoor furniture, and a grill create a relaxed setting for afternoons and evenings. Decks, patios, screened porches, and balconies throughout the home offer constant access to fresh air and Gulf breezes.
Location and access
A brand-new public beach access is just steps away and includes parking, restrooms, and a wheelchair ramp, with lifeguards on duty during peak season. A complimentary six-passenger street-legal golf cart makes exploring along 30A simple, with nearby dining and shopping options close by.

This property is perfect for large groups. Really nice with a nice pool area for entertainment. The location was only a block away from the beach which was great since we didn't have to worry about parking. Our family enjoyed our time there.

Great Experience
We rented the commanders Palace for a week long stay with 35 family and friends. The home had plenty of space to support the group our size. Many of the rooms are multi sleep so as long as you have people willing to share a room this place is great for large groups. Parking was a little issue so make sure you have no more than 10 cars. Location was awesome and beach is walking distance.
Our contact Ray during our stay was awesome- we had an issue with the grill and gas stove, this was identified late evening but he still responded and was there the next day to correct. Ray service alone would motivate me to book this place again

Two houses with a pool two blocks from the beach
The houses were laid out to offer lots of options for kids, families, teens. There were 29 of us and we were not crowded .
Tasteful decorations. Easy walk to the beach and a fun local restaurant. Renting the golf cart was great for carrying beach stuff.
Also, we were able to arrange for a bonfire on the beach one night.
The only drawback is the kitchen range. It still works but not well.
All in all I would highly recommend this listing for location and space and the really helpful local management!

Fabulous Property !
The property contact person was very responsive,, and this whole property was perfect for our family reunion. Two of our cousins already own houses in Santa Rosa Beach, so we only had to have 17 people staying in this rental. So, with 6 bedrooms in the main house, and 4 bedrooms in the carriage house - we had plenty of room to spread out. The pool was awesome! We paid to have it heated, and we're so glad that we did. It was so wonderful and relaxing to swim in. Plus, this house is sooo very close to the beach, that it's a just very short walk (past 4 maybe 5 houses) to the public beach access. The house also comes with a beach chairs -*AND*- a golf cart, which my sister (who has nerve damage in her foot) used to get to the beach. Most of our group preferred to walk to the beach every day, because it's just so close. And - It's an absolutely beautiful beach - best in the world, IMHO. The sand is incredible - very white, clean, and soft as power. Everything about this place is great, and we would not hesitate to rent this property again.

Didn't live up to ad
There was left over trash on the property as well as left over food in the kitchen cabinet. Did kill some monster cocroches inside the house. The pool cleaning company needs to learn how to clean a pool. Both times he left bugs in the pool. We watched he barely skimmed the pool. The bottom was filthy. We saw a lot of rust and mold thruout the home. They also need to improve the lighting outside. You can't see the steps outside and my elderly mom fell. The house also needs to come with instructions about the house. Like how to use things. Also one dishwasher was out of order. The beach chairs and umbrellas are barely usable. No umbrellas around the pool area and dangerous rusted lawn furniture. They also need more large trashcan for inside the house you only get one.Plus trash bags would be nice.
Over all thus house was not luxury like they described in the ad. I feel its overpriced. I also didn't like the next tenant showing up 2 days early wanting to see the house. Who does that? But I must say when I did call to complain about certain things they did make it right very fast.

LOVED THIS HOUSE
This house was soo beautiful and way nicer than what we expected. The beds were super comfy and there was tons of space everywhere. We did our wedding reception in the back and it was PERFECT. I highly recommend staying here. The only complaint I have is that the trash cans were all half full when we got into the house so we weren't able to fit everything. But the maintenance crew was very quick at responding and very helpful with all of our questions! We want to book another stay here!!

Getaway Greatness
The Commanders Palace was a great place to stay! Perfect location for our large family and easy access to the beach. The property manager was easy to get ahold of and our contact during the week (maintenance contact) was wonderful. We had a few hiccups with the golf cart and front door lock and she was extremely quick to reply, sourced a new golf cart and put on new door lock. Very responsive with other house questions I had.

Nice, but needs a little attention
The house and location are nice. Only a short walk to the beach. There are a few issues that need to be addressed. The air conditioning can only be turned down to 72. The hot tub water is only hot in the evening, so if you like to use the pool earlier in the day the hot tub water is cool. The photos show 10 chairs around the dining room table, but there were only 7 when we arrived. The couch in the living area has a very musty odor. Several pieces of bed linens had stains. One of the billiard balls was missing and the ques were broken.
