**BEACH ACCESS INFO**
There are 2 great beach options near Beachside Villas:
• The public beach at the end of San Roy Road • Walton Dunes public Beach at Beachfront Trail
---Public Beach Access at San Roy Road The public beach access located at the end of San Roy Road is a 3-4 minute walk from Beachside Villas (1200 ft), but 10 or so minutes from our building 11. It borders both Eastern Lake and the Gulf of Mexico. It is the recommended beach for Beachside Villas owners and guests. This is a large 2+ acre beach with plenty of room. As an added convenience to access this beach, Beachside Villas provides golf cart transportation to/from this beach from the Beachside Villas mailbox. Please note that you may not park cars or golf carts at the end of San Roy Road, which are subject to immediate towing. Beachside Villas provides transportation via golf cart service from 9:15am to 4:45pm every day of the week, from May-1 through Aug-31. The Beachside Villas mailbox is the pickup/drop off point on Beachside Villas property. The golf cart will travel to/from the San Roy public beach. Wrist bands are required for golf cart transport (and pool) access.
---Sugar Dunes Beach Sugar Dunes Beach is steps to the beach from Beachside Villas near Building 6. Unfortunately, the beach is privately owned on both sides of the boardwalk. Anyone may access the boardwalk and beach, but only so far as to walk from the boardwalk to the water, and then turn either left or right and walk to either public beach area further down, which are the San Roy road beach, and Walton Dunes public beach.
---Walton Dunes public Beach at Beachfront Trail. Walton Dunes Beach is 3⁄4 of a mile from Beachside Villas if you use neighborhood roads but only 1⁄4 of a mile if you enter at the Sugar Dunes boardwalk and walk east (left turn off the boardwalk) on the beach to Walton Dunes. The route via neighborhood roads is a bit longer walk than other options, but is still readily accessible. Using the boardwalk to get onto the beach and walking to Walton Dunes is about the same distance as to the beach at the end of San Roy road. Walton Dunes is a Walton County managed public beach, available for use by all. There is public parking and bike racks nearby, if you prefer to drive or ride your bike, and the golf cart trolley will pick up and drop off here as well.
*PLEASE NOTE* Walton county allows beach chair/umbrella set up RENTALS at the Walton Dunes public beach. The number for the approved company, Coastal, is 850-233-0914. We provide 4 back pack chairs, 2 umbrellas, and a rolling cart for guests convenience if you prefer not to rent.

Lovely condo with a short walk to the beach! We were also able to rent bikes on property and had a great time exploring the neighborhood. Very close to many restaurants and attractions.
Host-Samantha, was very sweet and understanding when we had an unpredictable situation arise. Thankfully everything worked out and we had a very relaxing stay. Summer’s Shell was a great place, very clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed! Also it was a very short walk to the beach!
Enjoyed our stay, while we were visiting family who own a house nearby. It was nice to have our own place to sleep, was very comfortable and clean and convenient. Thanks!
My family (husband and 2 daughters) loved our stay! Condo was very clean, nice furnishings, and the location to the beach/gulf was ideal. Short drive or bike ride to shops and restaurants in Seaside was great! Will be back!
We loved our stay at the condo! It was clean, comfortable, and the perfect size for our family of 4. It was great being just a short walk to the beach. And having the beach umbrellas, the cart to carry them, and the backpack folding chairs all provided was huge. We'd be happy to stay there again.
We drove from Oklahoma and we were in awe of this friendly property so close to all amenities and the beautiful beach!
The property manager went above and beyond with our needs.
So clean and lacks nothing!
We love this area and this was our favorite condo we have stayed at in the complex. The living was spacious. Communication with Samantha was prompt, accommodating and hospitable!
We had a blast on our vacation. The condo was clean, close to lots of shops and restaurants, and the property staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.
Steps to the beach and two different pools, it had everything we needed! Check in was a breeze, and our stay seemed too short. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful getaway! The property is well maintained with great amenities. There is a closet with all the supplies you need for a trip to the beach.
We were so happy to return to this beautiful unit for our vacation this year! The location within Beachside Villas couldn't be better for our young family. The beach was gorgeous. The unit was perfectly clean and wonderfully comfortable. We can't wait to visit again!
We stayed at the condo for the Songwriters Festival. It was conveniently located and perfect for the two of us. Clean and well equipped. Check in was easy.
