About this property

30A 1st Floor Condo At Gulf Place Caribbean - only Steps to Beach!

Everything about this condo is about location, location, location !!! Gulf Place Caribbean is located in the heart of Santa Rosa Beach along scenic highway 30-A. The complex offers three pools, a hot tub, tennis courts, and shuffleboard courts. Gulf Place Town Center just a few steps away offers artist shops, unique shopping, wonderful restaurants including the Perfect Pig and Pizza by the Sea. You can also rent everything you need from the town center or beachfront including beach equipment, bike rentals, YOLO boards, and kayaks. The huge green space is perfect for the kids to run off that extra energy , throw a ball or grab a blanket and end the day by relaxing and listening to live music offered in the evenings during the summer . This is truly a place where you can park your car and never have to drive for the week. However, I do recommend exploring the idyllic beach towns of 30-A . The towns of Watercolor, Seaside, Seagrove, and Rosemary Beaches are not too far away. Each town offers its own unique characteristic adding its own charm to the beautiful emerald coast.

The condo is conveniently located on the first floor where you don't have to worry about carrying your luggage up steps or elevators. After a long day of traveling , you can drop off your bags and let your kids jump into the pool that is right out your patio door through a private gate. The quick beach access is a mere five minute walk across highway 30-A. This 1 bedroom 1 bath condo offers a master bedroom with a king size bed, hall way bunks, and a pull out sofa. The condo is perfect for couples in need of some vitamin 'sea' or a young family wanting to make wonderful memories.

No need to pack your whole kitchen, the kitchen is fully stocked with all of your essentials to make the perfect meal for the family. Publix grocery store is only 3 miles east on Hwy 98 and Wal-Mart 3 miles to the west. Get what you need on the way in or a quick restock mid-trip. The kitchen also includes a Keurig. The breakfast bar area has two counter height stools and the dining table that accommodates four people comfortably.

Check-in is 24/7 after you receive your door code. Arrive early and head straight to the beach or pool. Arrive late evening and check out the walkable city center restaurants. No need to time your arrival for office hours or meet a property manager. You are on your own schedule.
Absolutely free Wi-Fi is provided for all your mobile electronic devices. (code provided with check-in email)

Walking to the beach is easy. Right outside your patio door and across 30A. Look for the 'Gulf Place - Private Beach Access' pergola arbor beach access path. (simple to see on google street view)

Great Stay!!

We have been coming to Gulf Place for over 10 years, but this was the first time in this condo. We loved it! Everything was as described. The kitchen was well stocked. The bed was extremely comfortable and we love being on the ground floor right by the pool. The owner was quick to respond & very friendly. We will definitely stay here again.

Review

I have been traveling to Gulf Place for over 30 years with my family since I was a kid. Now as an adult, I’m bringing my own children back. It’s the best place! This unit was great! It was right outside the pool, making it easy for our kids to get to. The condo was set up perfectly for all of us. I would definitely recommend this unit to others!

Best Place in Santa Rosa

Everything about this place along with host and concierge was tops. The unit was immaculate, convenient, accessible and perfect for us. Easy walk to beach, pool, eateries and more. The host and concierge provide you every piece of info you need and are responsive. I can always tell my wife was happy, she wanted to buy it or another unit in the facility. Anyway, I highly recommend it. Many thanks for the stay.

Perfect in every way

I loved this property. The owner had it stocked very well with lots of things so I didn't need to worry about purchasing kitchen cookwear, like pizza pans, coffee maker etc. The 2 TVs where top notch. Having things for 6 people- a big plus. Beach towels, beach chairs, chairs at the table, porch chairs. The location of this condo also fantastic. On the ground level, steps to pool,hot tub, beach and lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. The maintenance crew keeps the property beautiful. It was quiet at night, so overall was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Once again Tops in our bookings

The unit is immaculate, well furnished with all your rental needs (linens, kitchen supplies, etc.) convenient to a pool, a beach, restaurants, shopping and grocery stores and one of the best we have stayed with in our rental history along the Gulf. We previously stayed here and loved it only to return again. The owner and concierge make this place a warm friendly experience. They are very responsive to your needs and can provide you with information valuable to shaping your experience. The unit has one bedroom, but also has two bunkbeds and a sofa couch making it a family friendly unit. There are two TVs , a DVD player and 5G internet that allow for family entertainment. I highly recommend this unit when visiting the Santa Rosa Beach area.

Location location location

We’ve stayed at several properties on this floor, and we always end up choosing this building because of how convenient it is to the pool and proximity to the beach! Loved this one and can’t wait to go back to Gulf Place. Linens and decor are updated from some of the pics, very comfortable and relaxing place to stay.

We spent a lovely 6 days at Gulf Place. The kitchen was well stocked, the unit was spotless. Comfortable furniture and easy access to the pool, which was also well maintained as well as the hot tub by the pool. Communication with the owner and the concierge was easy and helpful.

Loved being back in Gulf Place Caribbean!

We had five families staying in Gulf Place Caribbean and all loved our time there. I could not be happier with unit 110 the courtyard and access to the pool is amazing. A member of our group stayed in 109 and loved having the shared outdoor space. We had great neighbors on the other side. The unit had everything we needed and could have left a few extras we brought at home. I loved that we had our own personal concierge Todd. He was very responsive and took care of of every question and concern. Will recommend and look forward to returning again.

Wonderful place for a family

We had a terrific stay. Both Brian and Todd always responded to us in a timely manner and helped with any questions we had. The location is very convenient for a family and the apartment is clean and has everything you need. Going out to the pool was something we took advantage of since my 8-year-old daughter could go to play and we could watch her from the patio of our apartment or sitting next to the pool. There are several accesses to the beach which, being private, prevents many people, as happens near public entrances. There are also restaurants and businesses within walking distance. We only have good things to say about our experience! We´ll definitely be back in the future!

Will stay again!

The condo was absolutely perfect for our family of four. It was super clean upon arrival and was ready way before check in. You could tell a lot of thought has been put into the decor. The unit had everything we needed for cooking. As a mom of boys I greatly appreciated the washer and dryer in the unit too! The location was perfect. We parked our car and didn’t leave the community all week. We loved that there were restaurants and shops within walking distance. We ordered groceries from Walmart and Publix which was a life saver. We had the best weather and spent the majority of our time on the beach or in the pool. Todd was great and answered any questions I had almost instantly. Thank you for such a great stay! We can’t wait to come back again.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Karns

Host profile image
I am a wanderlust travelers that loves to explore new areas, restaurants, and enjoy what life offers.

Why they chose this property

I have stayed in beach homes from Hilton Head, Virginia Beach, Gulf Shores to Malibu. I choose the beaches of 30A as my retreat. The perfect mix of beach, urban, and leisure activities.

What makes this property unique

I also use this home for my vacation stays. We want to make sure you feel as home and comfortable during your stay as you would in our home. When we arrive we want to feel at home, enjoy the urbanism, sun at the beach, and running/biking trails that 30A has to offer. We hope that you enjoy the area as much as we do. Feel free to reach out for anything that you need, might make your trip better, or any additional insight of 30A.
