About this property

South of 30a! Private Beach!! Private pool, gas grill, and 4 bikes included!

Come enjoy lazy beach days and relaxing nights at our spacious beach retreat. This four bedroom, four bath, open concept home has lots of room for you to spread out and make yourself at home. Three covered porches, fire pit, and your own personal plunge pool expand your living area even more. Cooking dinner is easy in the large kitchen or on the backporch grill, but the excellent restaurants of 30a will tempt you too.
The sugary white sands of the Gulf are just a short walk or bike ride away, through our gated community at Watersound West Beach and across the picturesque boardwalk that crosses the protected sand dunes of Deer Lake State Park. Enjoy the calm waters of the rare coastal Deer Lake or walk the quiet beaches by the beautiful blue waters of Gulf
Located between Seagrove and Seacrest Beach, Watersound West is a private retreat that is still close to all that 30a has to offer.

We had such a terrific stay. There was more than enough space for our group of six, and it’s location to the beach and pool made allowed us to have a great time. We were grateful to have found such a comfy place!

Another amazing stay at Watersound West

This property was our 6th on Watersound west (it is our go to on 30A) and we had another wonderful stay. The house is immaculately kept, perfect for a family much larger than ours (we have 3 young boys). The kitchen is huge and it’s great having the grill setup for all the fresh seafood we were grilling. We had a very responsive experience as well with the landlord which was great. Would love to come back here next year!

Perfect beachside getaway

We had a fantastic 2nd annual stay at this beachside rental! The accommodations were top-notch—well-stocked, clean, and comfortable. We had a minor issue with an appliance, but it was resolved swiftly and smoothly. Communication was excellent throughout. The neighborhood and amenities were perfect for our needs. Highly recommend!

Our second stay

As usual, we found the house clean, well stocked and quite comfortable. The neighborhood is great for walking/biking and was very quiet. It’s close to The Perfect Pig and the Florida Fish House both of which we highly recommend. All in all, a great getaway from the craziness of the world!

Fantastic week!

This was one of the best places we have stayed for our family vacation. Property was clean, plenty of space and the private beach was PERFECT! Bit of a walk to the beach but my 75 & 78 yr old parents made it just fine. Kids loved the bikes and the neighborhood pool!

Perfect family vacation home

We are a family of 8 ranging in age from 16 to 80. We have been coming to 30A for 16 years, first to Rosemary Beach now WaterSound West and this is by far the best house we’ve ever stayed in. The house was perfect, plenty of room to spread out or gather to play games. The outdoor spaces were great, after a day at the beach we loved lounging by the plunge pool. The house was well appointed with all the necessities.

2024 Thanksgiving Week

Great house to have a family thanksgiving celebration. Even had guest entertainment from Frank the black bear. He only tried to help with the garbage collection in the neighborhood. He’s not much on the clean up. Teenagers had some wild life education. Cleanest gas grill I’ve ever had at a 30A rental. Some of the bikes need a little attention with fenders on tires. Thanks for letting my family rent your house. Allen H

I would like for the home sponsor to contact me. The home is beautifully appointed and the same for the neighborhood. Some TLC is needed in some areas of the home.

Another great stay

Our 3rd straight summer at this property! The beach is a 15 minute walk, but we managed with the provided wagons. A big pro is that this area of the beach is so much less crowded than the public area. Our kids (ages 6, 4, and 2) had a great time in the community pool, and we loved having the plunge pool available when we were home for naptime. The house was very clean and true to the photos with lots of areas for our group to spread out!

Cozy Gem

This house was such a hidden treasure. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The home was extremely clean and very nicely appointed. The plunge pool was a great bonus! We absolutely loved our stay. A note for improvement: The upstairs King room mattress could use replacing-it felt really old and squeeky. Overall, our week was magic. The home was perfect for our family and so very comfortable.

Absolutely Fantastic!

The house was fantastic. David, the host, was most accommodating. There were ten of us (4 grandparents, 2 parents and 4 grandchildren (18, 16, 12 & 10). Plenty of room for everyone! And TWO refrigerators! Seven (I think) bicycles, beach wagon and other beach amenities. We all had a wonderful time! About .6 of a mile to the beach, but plenty of private area. Very large pool. Thank you, David!

Great house! Pool is a great bonus.

House was awesome. The kids used the pool more than we thought they would! Bikes need maintenance but they worked. Grill and screened porch were perfect for meals. We picked up buddy’s seafood across the street most nights. Master bed is very firm. We didn’t think we would like it because it seemed hard. But in hindsight our backs didn’t hurt so we’re wondering if we need one. 😂

Great house on 30A

Everything about this house was great. Very large, much larger than it appears in the pictures, plenty of room for everyone to spread out. We've stayed in several houses on 30A and this has to be one of the most well appointed ones. The walk to the beach is about 15 minutes, or a 5 minute bike ride, but it is worth the extra distance since you will not be piled up on top of people on this area of Watersound Beach, compared to some of the other communities along 30A, we like this area for how quiet it is. The garage had several bikes and enough beach gear to accommodate our entire group. I also appreciated the very nice BBQ grill with a direct gas connection (no tank), I can't tell you how many homes I've been to where the tank is out. We'll definitely be back to this house.

Wonderful beach vacation!

We just enjoyed a week stay here and everything was perfect! This beach house was even better than the pictures. Everything was clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook meals during our stay. The house had 6 bikes, beach cart, wagon, chairs, umbrellas and sand toys. No need to bring anything for the beach. We’re a family of 5 with 3 teenagers and we were able to bike with all of our beach things for the day. The bike ride is about 7 minutes from the house across a boardwalk that crosses sand dunes and an area of water. It’s a very beautiful ride. The community pool and the house’s own plunge pool were also very nice. The neighborhood is beautiful and we enjoyed biking/walking around to see all of it. The neighborhood is about 10 minutes away from Publix and there are several restaurants close by. We biked to the Big Chill for shopping and restaurants. Great location and beautiful home! The property manager is also amazing. She’s quick to respond and very helpful. We only had one issue and she had maintenance there within a few hours to resolve the problem.

Great House/location best on 30A

We (family 0f 10 ages 9-66) loved this house. We have stayed on 30A for many years. This is our favorite house we have stayed in. There was plenty of room to spread out. The water pressure and hot water was plentiful (that may seem like a small item but with 10 people hot water goes fast...we were never without hot water.) There is a boardwalk to the beach which is about .5 mile but it is a pretty walk so it wasnt too bad. There are several (6 or 7) bikes which you can ride to the beach which our grandsons did most days. The beach itself was not crowded. plenty of room to spread out and no restrictions. close to lots of restaurants and shopping etc. but not cluttered in the area of the house. The pool was nice and we used it a couple of days on the way from the beach back to the house. Overall, the best place we have ever stayed on 30A.

Beautiful, Spacious, Great Location!

Our group of two families had a lovely week at “Lazy Summers Day” for Thanksgiving 2022. I don’t think the photos do this home justice—-it was so roomy, and several updates have been made, including a bed in the upstairs TV area! The home was clean and beautiful, wonderfully appointed, and had the perfect central location to all of 30A. We enjoyed the 1.5 mile bike ride to “The Big Chill” several times, and found the ride to Seaside to be an easy 3.5 mile trek as well. The pool at the house was able to be heated and was great even with the cooler temps. We enjoyed the Watersound West pool, as well! The walk to the beach is relatively quick, and the beach area immediately outside the boardwalk was blissfully uncrowded. We had everything we needed to prep Thanksgiving dinner and enjoyed the meal out on the screened in first-floor patio. The only suggestion I would make for improvement would be to update the bikes at the property, as they’re showing wear and tear and were no longer very reliable, even after we did some preventative maintenance upon arrival. I would 100% recommend this property and would love to return someday!

Great beach house

This is our second year in Watersound West and will never stay anywhere else! This neighborhood is great; rare to not have to cross 30a to get to the beach. The neighborhood is quiet, well-kept and friendly. The walk to the pool and beach takes 5-15 minutes depending on your speed, but is easily doable with the wagon. This home is clean and as advertised. It was large enough for our family of 7 plus friends that visited us while there. The pool was great for the kids to use. There is plenty of pool and beach gear, as well as bikes. We appreciated how quickly and easily David and Ashley were able to take care of a small issue we had early in the week. We definitely enjoyed our stay and will be back!
