Sandy Feet has a great location! A quick walk to the beach with restaurants close by!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Sandy Feet. The property itself is in a perfect location to walk to the beach! Right off of 30 A and near Gulf Place, there are several restaurants and some shopping nearby. There is also a Publix very close which made it helpful. Our kids 5 and 7, also loved the location because the walk was easy for them. Gary was very helpful and kind, and he provided several suggestions on things to do with our family while we were there. We had a wonderful Spring Break, and will be back!

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.

A Santa Rosa Beach Delight

We haven't been to Santa Rosa Beach in a few years, and the area has certainly grown busier. The house was perfectly located to walk to restaurants and shops as well as the beach without having to jump into the crowds. When the house needed some emergency care, Gary was attentive and immediately resolved the unexpected repair. The space was just right for our family, with comfy beds and a well-equipped kitchen. Sandy Feet was delightful.

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!

Family Vacation - 6 Adults & 2 Children - ages 8 and 2

This property was the most beautiful place we have stayed over our many years of vacationing. This home was decorated beautifully and it was so well stocked with everything we could have ever needed. The beds, all of them were so comfortable. This was a very safe and quiet neighborhood. By the 2nd day, we had the trip to the beach down to a science. Would have been nice to have a pool in the neighborhood. The only thing that a couple of the women mentioned that was needed, was a full size mirror. We all enjoyed our stay very much at Sandy Feet.

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!!!

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!
