True On the Beach Experience

If you're looking for a true in the beach vacation, look no further. Wake up to a sunrise on the deck, walk to the beach and hangout for the day, enjoy the views in the evening, watch movies at night in front of the massive outdoor bar area or while relaxing in the hot tub. Great house, fun location!

Wonderful Waves & Whiskey

We had a wonderful week at Waves & Whiskey. Being right on the beach to watch the sunrises and sunsets was just what we needed. The house was pristine with plenty of room for everyone. We can't wait to go back again!

Great Home and Location

We absolutely loved Waves & Whiskey. It is in a great location right on the beach. It was so relaxing to sit on the balcony in the morning and have coffee. Besides the beach, there are several things to do in the area that are not crazy expensive. We will be back again!

Perfect Getaway

Enjoyed a relaxing and fun weeklong trip with several girlfriends and could not have been more comfortable! This beachfront property has every expected amenity... including a glorious outdoor shower! Beach access is easy and the house is beautifully decorated. Enjoyed several of the nearby restaurants and felt very at home. Would definitely visit again!

Great Family Adventure

The house was great for our family of 14. Plenty of room to spread out. Great 2nd floor for gathering and partying. The 3rd floor was great for getting away from the mob and relaxing. Great access to the beach. The kitchen was well stocked. I love the easy check in, clean up and check out. Everything was clean and well kept. We had a blast! Thank you!

Weekend at the Beach

Property and location were fantastic. I was a little disappointed with the check in/out times. Spent and awful lot of money for basically 36hrs. Having to check out by 10am is a little extreme. There was an issue with the shower and drain in lower room, I partially fixed it to get us through the short time we were there. Non need to contact anyone and disrupt the short amount of time we had. Overall pleased but could have been a little better if we have would have been able to take our time on check out day.

We had an amazing stay.... already thinking when to rent it again... wished we could have stayed longer. We all loved the middle deck with the bar, hot tub and small kitchen.The only small picky thing was that the door code didnt work.. but just used the keys in the lock box!!!

Great Times at Waves & Whiskey

My family had a great experience at Waves & Whiskey! The location on the beach is second to none. The house was great with plenty of outdoor spaces and plenty of room for our family. We loved the outdoor shower as well.

Excellent - 5 Stars

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Waves and Whiskey! The private access to the beach was a game-changer — it made everything so convenient and allowed us to spend hours by the water without any hassle. The location is perfect, offering breathtaking views right from the property. The downstairs room was fantastic for the kids, giving them their own space to hang out and enjoy the beach vibe. We especially loved the kitchen on the bottom floor, which made it super easy and convenient to relax and hang at the bar. There's truly nothing better than soaking in a hot tub while taking in the incredible view of the ocean. It was the perfect way to unwind after a day on the beach. Overall, Waves and Whiskey exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to come back. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing, beachside escape!

Excellent - 5 Stars (even with less than ideal weather)

Our trip was on the tail end of a rare snow and ice storm in January of 2025. Fortunately, we didn't incur any travel delays or power outages despite airport and road closures the day before our arrival. Once we were settled into Waves & Whiskey, we were able to relax and enjoy the beautiful gulf views and local restaurants/amenities. The cooler temps and high winds never did allow for extended time outdoors (without being in the hot tub) but we still had a great visit with friends and family! The house was well suited for our group size and it is so easy to get to stores and restaurants - including a nice afternoon at Margarittavillle. A great getaway for sure.

Excellent location and great amenities

Three families, 6 adults and 6 kids stayed at this property for 5 nights in December and had a great time. The property is located by the beach and has all the amenities as listed online. Everything we needed was available at the property. The kids really enjoyed the hot tub and easy access to the beach. My only complaint was with the room in the lower level (2nd floor) which had no windows and was kind of muggy even with AC turned on. The floors are high and that makes someone old or with physical condition tough time to climb up. An elevator would be great add, similar to one in the adjacent property

32 steps

Home was beautiful and well maintained. A caution might be posted that the stairs can be challenging for older folk and “bunk room” is not accessible from main living area. Probably not advisable to assume the “kids” can sleep on that level unattended.

Perfect relaxing beachfront vacation

We had a great week at Waves & Whiskey! The house is perfect for multiple families and the spacious deck is awesome for hanging out in the sun or the shade any time of day. The ocean breeze made even hot days comfortable on the deck. The house had everything we needed to cook but I was also pleasantly surprised that there were tons of awesome restaurants/bars close by with great food. Overall a great choice for a relaxing week!
