About this property
A hidden secret. Escape the crowds, not the view! Bayfront oasis with boathouse.
**NEW RENTAL** Come for the beach. Stay for the bay. It's a little known secret that the locals love the bay more. How would you feel waking up to a wrap around water view and having coffee or cocktails on your private dock overlooking the Choctawhatchee Bay, all while only 5 mintures from the beach?! We are also one of the only rentals, if not THE ONLY rental on the bay with a boat lift and access to deep water. We love it so much, we live right next door.
The Hewett Point Bayhouse is a contemporary four-bedroom bay front home featuring sweeping views of Choctawhatchee Bay and a lush front garden filled with magnificent oak trees, magnolia trees, azaleas and palms. A gated entry into a private drive finishes in an exposed-rafter carport creating a sense of arrival.
Entering the newly furnished home, a striking open floor plan and panoramic views greet you. The interior features timeless finishes, luxury plank flooring, custom lighting and four exquisite baths.
Boat lift is available for use upon request. Bring your own boat or there are nearby options available to rent a pontoon.
It’s a relaxing vacation home for families with children or a group of friends that offers easy access to the amenities of Grand Boulevard and is just moments away from the sugar-sand beaches of 30A.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Laura E Madden
We moved to Santa Rosa Beach 6 years ago from Alaska with our 3 boys and have fallen in love with the bay life and all it has to offer. Everyone told us when we moved here that we'd come for the beach but would stay for the bay, and they were not wrong. We conveniently live right next door to this bay house rental which makes it even more special for us to be able to host and share our love of the area with you.
Why they chose this property
The house sits behind a gate at the end of a quiet road. The neighbors along our road are all full time residents and dog lovers. We love that it is super quiet and serene, yet only minutes from the beach and the hustle and bustle of town.
What makes this property unique
This property is unique because of it's location on the bay. Not only does it face the bay, it is also wrapped by a canal which provides seclusion and water views on 2 sides.
