About this property
Luxury Beach Home, Gated, Beach Front, Pool, Granite, Bay pier, bikes
Location, location, location!!!
'Beach Haven,' as we call our home, has 3200 sq. feet and was built in 2006. It is the first home as you enter a gated community of 15 homes and HAS THE BEST LOCATION OF ANY RENTAL PROPERTY WE KNOW OF ON PENSACOLA BEACH!!! Walk a few steps to the beach, the pool, the bay, or the bike path - or just sit on the balcony and watch the waves, the sunset, the surfers, and the dolphins! The physical address for the home is 1 Calle Marbella, Gulf Breeze, Florida.
Beach Haven has beautiful, sweeping, unobstructed views of the beach from the large windows in every room of the house. The living area is much larger than in most homes, and all bedrooms are upstairs. Two King Master Suites are located in the “towers” and have attached large bathrooms. The West Tower Suite has a shower and a soaking tub, while the East Suite has a shower only but does have the added bonus of a door leading directly to the outside balcony.
The two Queen Bedrooms share a bathroom with a shower only. Both of these Queen bedrooms have a loft bed built in over the closet. These beds are appropriate for children ages 12 and up. It is your responsibility to determine if your child (or adult for that matter) can safely navigate the ladder up to the loft bed. We simply can’t be responsible for any falls due to the use of the loft beds. The King bedrooms have plenty of floor space to accommodate air mattresses, but the Queen bedrooms do not.
The “Surf Shack” is located down in the garage and has two bunk beds, both with a queen on bottom / full on top. This room is not near a bathroom, but seems perfectly suited for tweens/teens to stay up all night playing video games and texting. Additional sleeping areas are located on the main living area, include two twin daybeds.
The beach is just a few feet away, however, you do have to cross a two lane road. Don't let this alarm you, the beach is VERY easy to access. I have stepped it off myself, and it is 100 steps from my door until I hit sand. A bike path runs right in front of the house also, so it is great fun and is very easy to ride bikes into town. The pool is about the same distance from the house as the beach. It is shared by all the houses in the subdivision and ranges from 3.5 feet to 6.5 feet at its deepest. Then, you can walk right down to the bay, which is about a block. The subdivision has a pier, and it is always fun to set out the crab trap. I’ve found that younger kids actually prefer playing in the bay area where there are less waves and lots of interesting creatures. Last year my kids found live sand dollars and collected and raced their own hermit crabs. I’ve also heard from my renters that the fishing from the pier is quite fun. You can see a video showing the house in relation to the pool/beach on the Beach Haven Face Book page.
OTHER FEATURES
The house has unique hardwood teak floors and ceilings, beautiful granite countertops, marble bathrooms, Wi-Fi, flat screen televisions in every bedroom, a front loading washer and dryer, and a fully stocked kitchen. All linens are provided. I provide enough paper products to get you started. What more could you want??!!
BOOKING INFORMATION
You will want to secure these dates as soon as possible, as we cannot hold your dates without a deposit. Please be aware that requests come in daily and I will book the first guests that meet the reservation criteria. If you decide to book Beach Haven:
Just Press Book Now
No pets, parties, or smoking allowed. Any evidence of any of these activities will result in a forfeiture of your entire deposit. If you have a boat or RV – it must be parked off site or fit in the garage. Our neighbors are only too happy to report parties or other neighborhood rule violations and persistent violations of any rules will result in your eviction from the house.
If for some reason you must cancel, please notify me IMMEDIATELY and I will work diligently to rebook the house in order that you may receive a full refund.
We want all of our guests to treat this home as if it were their own, well…maybe even better. We bought the house out of foreclosure last year and it was stripped to the bones – no door knobs, light fixtures, appliances … even the bathroom sinks were missing! We spent long hours restoring and furnishing the house, so we are looking for families and groups that will treat it (almost) as lovingly as we do. We trust that you are exactly the kind of guest(s) that we will welcome to this home again and again. Thank you for your interest in Beach Haven.

Why they chose this property
We rented a house in the neighborhood with some friends just last summer and absolutely loved the location. We have been vacationing in Gulf Shores, AL, Destin, Ft. Walton Beach and have never had this great of a location - beach/pool/bay/bike path - it just makes for something to do all the time.
What makes this property unique
This is not your typical rental handled by an agency. Beach Haven and Sunset are the only rental properties we own at the beach and we have furnished it for OUR family to enjoy. We have many extras included that you will just not find in other homes. Plus, we have taken great care with the furnishings and decorations. You will love it.
