About this property

Worth The Wait Beach House - 3/2 Coastal Townhouse in Gated, Beachfront Resort!

Welcome to Worth The Wait! We've thought of everything to make your vacation carefree and relaxing, including all of the amenities & extras you'd find in your own home. We wanted to create the perfect vacation getaway where you need to pack only your clothes, and have everything else available to enjoy a wonderful stay at the beach!

Our beds are comfy with crisp white bedding and plenty of fluffy pillows to get a good night's sleep, along with upgraded ceiling fans in each bedroom.

* King 2nd floor primary BR - 55" TV w/ cable, closet & 2 dressers; USB chargers in the lamps, ironing board, iron, steamer, clothes drying rack; 43" desk, chair, and 27" LED monitor (please bring your adapter for HDMI cord).
* Queen 1st floor BR - 42" smart TV, closet, armoire, USB chargers, ensuite bath
* Full/Queen bunk BR - Solid wood adult-ready beds, 42" TV w/ cable, reading lights on beds, closet, drawers & USB chargers. Seating area on the deck off the bedroom.
* Upgraded trampoline support Queen sleeper sofa in the living room, and USB chargers in both LR lamps.
* Pack n' Play for the little one

The two full bathrooms on each floor have modern dual vanities, large walk-in showers and private bathrooms with plenty of room to move around. We also provide shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel in each shower for your convenience. There's a full size washer & dryer on the first floor for any laundry needs, and we provide starter supplies like paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher tabs, laundry detergent & dryer sheets. We've been renters for many years and know that the little things are appreciated!

The modern kitchen boasts plenty of gorgeous soft-close cabinets with all of the essentials (and many "extras") to make a huge breakfast, lunch for the kiddos, or a full dinner for your group. There's a pantry with room for all of the groceries so you keep your counter space clear!

* Stainless appliances, granite countertops, and motion-sensor under-cabinet lighting, and a breakfast bar that seats 4
* Place settings for up to 10, beverage & wine glasses, koozies, cold-cup tumblers for the beach, kids cups, dishes, bowls & plastic utensils
* Separate coffee bar area with mugs, a Keurig brewer, and plenty of storage for extras. We also provide starter coffee pods, stirrers, and sweeteners. We also have a small drip coffee maker in the pantry if needed.
* The chef in the group will have heavy duty pots and pans, a huge griddle, Cuisinart bread/bagel toaster, crockpot, Ninja blender for the pina's and daiquiris, waffle maker, and a hand mixer for baking!
* We've included baking pans, as well, for Monkey Bread or cupcakes.
* Portable high chair for the little one

After a day at the beach, grill some burgers or steaks on the infrared gas grill out on the back patio while playing a game of cornhole (we provide), and enjoy a family dinner with seating for 6 at the table and 4 more at the breakfast bar. Later, cozy around the 65" smart TV with the family and watch a movie on Netflix or Prime on our high speed network, or pull out one of the games or books in the entertainment cabinet, that doubles as an electric fireplace in the winter months! If it's cool out, or you're looking for a beach reprieve, grab a book and head out on the 2nd story deck and relax. Bring your Alexa or Google devices and listen to your favorite playlists, or fall asleep to your favorite sounds.

When it comes to enjoying the beach, we've got you covered there also! With 6 backpack-style beach chairs, and two upgraded sand beach umbrellas, enjoy the best part of the resort - it's beachfront! Pack it all up in the foldable wagon and fill the wheeled cooler we provide, and take a short 12 min. walk to the 600 ft. of private beach down a dedicated sidewalk. If you'd rather ride than walk, the free resort shuttle picks up right at our driveway and drops you off at the beach entrance. We've got beach toys for the kids, and we provide 6 beach towels for your use as well. You won't find all this in most other rentals!

Within the TOPS'L resort, you get access to the gorgeous beachfront pool and deck, Blue Dunes Grille & Bar (Mar - Nov), Topspin bistro just 3 min from our front door; putting golf course (adult & kids clubs in our front closet), half basketball court, shuffleboard, and most importantly, 600 ft. of private, sugar white sand beach! You just need to bring your swimsuit and you're all set!

For those guests who want to use the fitness center (the Club) with steam room, hot tub, sauna, private indoor/outdoor pool, and tennis/pickle ball courts, a 3-day or 5-day guest pass can be provided for an additional $45/day (3-day min.) in advance of your stay. The pass is good for your whole party.

Our property manager is local, which ensures that should anything arise during your stay, you've got folks available to you at all times to get it resolved. You must be at least 25 years old to reserve our vacation home, and you must be present for the full duration of the stay. No more than 3 guests under 21 per each adult over 25. All arriving guests will need to check in at the resort security gate to show your ID before receiving your vehicle pass(es).

* Our home has exterior security cameras and NO PETS of any kind per our resort HOA policies.

An Amazing Vacation
Me and my family had an amazing time at the resort. The condo was everything that was stated in description and more. Melanie provided beach chairs, beach towels, goggles for my grand kids, beach toys. The linens in the house were hotel quality. The beds were super comfortable. You could tell that Melanie and her husband really cared about their guests having a great time. We weren't directly on the beach but we'd call the free shuttle and be at the beach in 4 minutes. I felt safe and secure in the home and very welcome. The condo was spotless and care was taken in ensuring that I felt welcome as soon as I walked in. It's definitely a condo that I'd recommend. I travel the world for work and get tired of staying in hotels. I felt like I was a home in this condo.

Home Sweet Home
The title, Home Sweet Home, says it all! The hosts have created a tastefully decorated, clean, welcoming, cozy yet spacious, highly functional home in a safe, gated racquet / beach community ideally located in Miramar Beach. The attention to every detail by the owners made our stay the best ever as renters (abundantly supplied kitchen, toiletries, cleaning/laundry supplies, beach supplies, etc.). Through the gracious, professional & timely communication with the hosts, it was evident that their goal was for us to have an extraordinary stay and they succeeded. We loved the Worth the Wait Beach House & fell in love with the Emerald Coast!

About the host

Hosted by Melanie & Brad Ellsworth

Host profile image
My husband and I are both originally from IL, and I'm from Chicago proper, where I was born and raised. We both grew up on the water, boating and enjoying the time with family & friends, so our dream, when we married, was to one day have a place by the water. After raising our family and living in Central IL for over 15 years, we've called Texas our home for the past 11 years!

Why they chose this property

After vacationing on the Emerald Coast and 30A for the past 15 years, and all of the kids grown and out of the nest, we decided it was time to get a place of our own, so we can share this beautiful beach with our family and friends. The beach is truly where I find serenity and my calm, so this is our happy place.

TOPS'L became our home away from home because of the lush grounds, quiet yet active resort community, and the gorgeous private beach. We love having dinner down at the bar and grill and knowing we're safe and secure in a gated resort is wonderful peace of mind. We'd love to share the beautiful white sand beach and gorgeous emerald waters with you in our beach home for your next getaway. We promise it will be Worth the Wait!

What makes this property unique

We've provided everything you could possibly need for a beach vacation: Fully equipped and well-appointed 2-story end unit townhouse with tons of natural light; 3 great bedrooms for up to 8 adults; beach towels, beach chairs, rolling cooler, wagon, beach toys, and mini-golf clubs and balls for the course on the resort!

There's the fantastic Blue Dunes Bar & Grille at the main beachfront pool for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and the best frozen cocktails around; or grab a bite at Topspin sports bar and grab a beer, a bite to eat, and watch the games on multiple TVs. Plan a romantic dinner at the Ocean Club right before the resort gates. There's something for everyone!

We manage the property ourselves, with a dedicated on-site cleaning and management crew, to ensure your vacation is unforgettable and stress-free! So close to everything, or do nothing but stay at the beach and relax. Whatever you decide, it's worth the wait!
