About this property

Shellnel No. 9 Three bed, three bath, two balcony w/2 car garage on the beach

Location, Location, Location!

Nothing beats being on the Gulf with nothing between you and the waves, besides sand!

THE AREA:
Discover Navarre Beach Florida, a small beach town with access to everything but with the privacy and relaxation you are looking for.

No wonder they call it Florida's Most Relaxing Place.

Navarre Beach is an island with the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Navarre Sound (bay) on the other. The area is connected to Pensacola Beach and all of it's amenities by Highway 399 (Gulf Blvd.). The two areas are separated by 7 miles of protected undisturbed raw beauty. It is an incredible drive, bike ride or place to just enjoy nature. You can also reach Navarre Beach, known as "Florida's Best Kept Secret", via the Navarre Beach Causeway, a short drive over the bridge crossing the bay that separates the town of Navarre and Navarre Beach.

Our home on Navarre Beach Florida offers the very best of everything you desire. The privacy of this area allows you to truly enjoy the perfect white sands of Santa Rosa county in peace with everything you could desire within a few minute drive. Nestled between Pensacola Beach (20 min. drive west) and Fort Walton Beach (20 min. drive east) you have access to everything without being right in the middle of it all the time. The island boasts the longest fishing pier in all of Florida, a nature reserve and a sea turtle conservatory. The sands are white like sugar and cool to the touch year round. Navarre is known for it's shells. They are everywhere and so fun to search for and collect. At times you can even find full sand dollars.

THE UNIT:
We call our home Shellnel No. 9. The complex is called Beachview because it is on the water and Shellnel No. 9 is one of 14 townhomes that are situated on the gulf. The unit is 1632 s.f and features 3 beautifully appointed bedrooms, 3 full baths and a large tandem garage.

One of our favorite things about our home is that all three levels of the unit are yours. In most all of the really large condo units you park in a parking lot, go through a lobby, climb up the stairs or take the elevator, go through the hall and then get to your unit--while carrying all of your stuff. Same thing when you are ready to go out to the beach. Haul all of your stuff through a crowded building while you are wearing your bathing suit, elevator, lobby, common deck area and then 10 minutes later you are on the sand. With Shellnell #9 you have the best of everything--Amazing views from the main (second) and top (third) floor balconies with steps that lead from the main balcony to the sand! When you arrive you pul into the garage inside the unit! When you are done playing you simply walk back to the unit, enjoy your outdoor shower and drop your stuff in the garage--all on ground level! We wanted a home, not an apartment. That's exactly what Shellnell No. 9 is--our home. And you are our guests!

The townhome is made up of three levels:

Ground floor features include the 2 car tandem garage space with both front and rear garage doors, a full dining table and 6 chairs, lounge chairs, a patio and an outdoor charcoal grill. The patio also offers an outdoor shower for your convenience. There is NO comparison to pulling into your garage and directly entering the home.

The main floor features include a beautiful living room with a balcony, dining area with table for 6 and four bar stools, fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, and a bedroom with a queen bed and full bath. There are also two small roll away beds (best for children) located in the closet of this bedroom.

The top floor features an over sized master bedroom with a wall of windows overlooking the gulf, a private balcony, master bath with full shower, jetted whirlpool tub and double vanities. The laundry (stacked washer and dryer) area is on this floor along with a bedroom with two twin beds and a full bath.

NOTE: The townhome is a multi-story unit with multiple staircases and no elevator.

The maximum occupancy is eight and there are sleeping accommodations for eight:
King in master (2)
Two twin beds in upstairs (2)
Queen bed in bedroom on main floor (2)
Two (2) small roll away beds-best for children.

The unit was built in 2008 and was totally redecorated in 2017. It is gorgeous! The custom decor includes beautiful light fixtures, artwork, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, beautiful bedding and so much more making Shellnel #9 an incredible home away from home. the complex offers a swimming pool and tennis court exclusively reserved for Beachview guests.

Wake up to a gorgeous sunrise and have your coffee while listening to the sound of the waves. Keep your eyes open for dolphins which are frequently spotted in the area. When you are ready walk down your private staircase and you are right on the sand! Simply walk over the Beachview guest bridge and find your spot for the day.

Everything about Shell no.9 was perfect! The parking was easy and extremely accessible. The layout was a comfortable and very easy to live all while being very beach chic. The two ocean front balconies were all of our favorite.

This was our first time staying in Navarre. SHELL No.9 is a spacious place with plenty of beach items in case you forgot anything. The kitchen is beyond well stocked, literally has everything. Loved being able to leave our beach gear in the garage so we didn't track sand everywhere, it was nice having our own outdoor shower. If you have knee or back problems just know the couch and the bed in the master bedroom sits very low and you will have difficulty getting up. My favorite part was having a balcony off the living room and master bedroom. My suggestion, have a vacuum cleaner for guest to use on the rugs. Just walking inside from the parking lot brought sand in. We enjoyed our stay and our first visit to Navarre.

A Perfect Thanksgiving Getaway!

Our stay at ShellNel No. 9 in Navarre Beach was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Four generations of our family, ranging from ages 2 to 88, enjoyed this inviting and comfortable home for a long Thanksgiving weekend. The accommodations were perfect for our diverse group and conveniently located near additional family staying close by. Being right on the ocean with just a short walk to the beach was such a treat, offering beautiful views and easy access for all. Communication with the owners was timely, accurate, and welcoming, which made the entire experience seamless. We all would definitely recommend ShellNel No. 9 to other guests. We’re already looking forward to the chance to stay again next Thanksgiving—if not sooner!

Beachfront perfection!

We had a great week at Navarre Beach in this rental! We usually stay in Seacrest/Rosemary Beach area but were looking for a lower key, quieter option during the busy Spring Break weeks. This did not disappoint! The rental is tastefully decorated and very comfortable with everything you could possibly need for a week at the beach! Very nice not having to bring our own beach towels or beach chairs, everything is already here for you! So happy to explore a new area in the panhandle, we definitely will be back!

Two Thumbs Up!

Shellnell No. 9 is an excellent rental for anyone looking for easy beach access, beautiful decor, & plenty of amenities. The townhouse is right on the beach, & the walk to the beach is a mere two minutes or so. It is perfect for those who want to be able to easily go from the rental to the beach & back again. For families/larger parties, you can also see your family on the beach from the property’s two balconies. The townhouse is beautifully decorated in a rustic beach motif, with plenty of seaside touches, such as turtle shells, whales, oysters, seashells, & more. The decor really gives this rental an aesthetically-pleasing touch. The rental has everything that you need to enjoy the beach - chairs, umbrella, toys, rafts, boogie boards, shell scoopers, & more. No need to bring all of those items with you from home - Shellnell No. 9 has them for you! The property has two televisions - one in the living room & one in the master. The living room television is a Smart TV with access to Netflix, Hulu, & Amazon Prime, if you have your own accounts. The two smaller bedrooms do not have TVs, so take note if a TV in every bedroom is a requirement for your trip. This property really has everything that you need and is in a good location. It is toward the end of all of the high-rise condos, making it a short walk to the pier, but not right in the midst of all the hustle & bustle that the condos bring. The owner, Scott, made communication & check-in/out a breeze. He communicates through text, making it easy for you to respond/get info wherever & whenever you are. You also don’t have to worry about coordinating an arrival time to meet-up & get keys because the townhouse has an electronic keypad. Scott will text you your code before you arrive. Everything was effortless & accessible, allowing us to focus on & enjoy our vacation! Property comes highly recommended. Thank you, Scott & family, for a wonderful rental for our vacation!

The townhouse was very clean, beautifully decorated and in a prime location. The kitchen is well stocked with most anything you could possibly want (no need to bring your own salt/pepper or spices) and the gas grill already had a full propane tank for grilling with plenty of grilling tools. It is nice to have a large table and chairs on the ground level in the garage to use while grilling. We put two cars into the garage, even with the table in there. I’m not sure the garage is wide enough for a full-size SUV but there are two designated parking spots outside in front of the unit. There are plenty of beach chairs/water toys, an umbrella and life jackets provided. My 84-year-old mother took the stairs slowly but had no problem making the short walk to the beach every day. The check-in process was seamless and the property owner was quick to respond.

We’ve been to Navarre several times and this place is really special! It’s right on the water with perfect views, came ready with anything our family needed, and host communication was top notch. We especially loved direct access to the beach, eating meals with a view on the patio, the wide selection of beach chairs and beach toys, the fully stocked kitchen, and the thoughtfulness of providing beach towels so that we didn’t have to lose a lot of packing space for our roadtrip. We really enjoyed your condo. Thank you so much for being such great hosts!

Perfect Family Vacation

So glad we chose this townhome for our family’s vacation over a condo located in a high rise that we had looked at. Right on the beach, which was super convenient to run back and forth when we didn’t have the “right” snack for the kiddos or had to grab another bottle of sunscreen. Everything you need for the beach or pool is located in the garage. At least 8 beach chairs, multiple umbrellas, and plenty of toys for the kids! We all had an amazing time!

About the host

Hosted by Scott Werner

Host profile image
For years we have loved the ocean and spending time near and in it's beautiful setting. We live a long way from the water and for years dreamed about and made plans to purchase a home on the ocean for our family and friends to enjoy. Shellnel No. 9 became the fulfillment of that dream in 2017! We hope that you enjoy it as much as we do and return as often as you can.

Why they chose this property

We had very specific criteria when we were looking:
1. We wanted to be right on the water. This townhome offers something unique in that you are directly on the gulf. You can literally walk out of the living room doors and down your private staircase and your toes are in the sand. Nothing beats that for us! The sound of the waves, the views from both balconies and the immediate access made this the perfect spot.
2. We wanted to be in a quiet community.
Navarre is truly the best of both worlds. It is surrounded on one side by the gulf and on the other by the "sound" (bay) so everywhere you look, you see water. Unlike many other gulf areas, it is still relatively undeveloped allowing us to enjoy the beach without stepping over people, getting caught in traffic jams and waiting in long lines. One quick ride over the bridge allows us to get to anything and everything we need--grocery stores, restaurants, fast foods, a zoo, golf courses and so much more.
3. We wanted easy access.
Navarre is a short drive from both Pensacola International and Ft. Walton airports so you can catch a great deal on Southwest, Allegiant or whatever airline you prefer and quickly make it to the townhome.
After years of planning we found everything we were looking for in this amazing location. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

No hauling your stuff through the lobby, up the elevators, down the hall into your unit on the 10th floor. Just pull into the garage and all three levels are all yours! Walk to and from the sand from your patio. Privacy with all the perks! Enjoy being one of fourteen homes in our building as opposed to hundreds in a high rise.
