About this property

Sand Tusker Villa with Large Pool and Designer Interior

Welcome to Sand Tusker Villa,

This beautiful 4-bedroom / 4-bath townhome will create memories of our beach that your family will cherish forever! Only a 5-minute walk to the county's largest public beach access, where you can play in the sun during the day and have a bonfire at sunset. Cycle, run, or walk along the beach boardwalk and beach road! This unit is also a short walk from several award-winning restaurants. Being so close to the beach and restaurants makes getting around safe and easy for the whole family.

Sand Tusker Villa is an energy-efficient ''Earth Cents'' home that will wrap you in luxury. The living room TV has a catalog of over 1000 movies and shows. It is pet-friendly and includes a garage, community pool, paved driveway, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops in the kitchen & baths, two sets of built-in bunk beds, hardwood flooring, porcelain tile, and crown molding throughout. The open living area, kitchen, and outdoor spaces are ideal for large gatherings. Each level of the home has its own temperature control. Balconies are located off the living room and 2nd-floor front bedroom. The spacious master bedroom/bath, with a large walk-in closet, garden tub, and oversized shower, rounds out the luxurious features!

We know pets are family, and we welcome some small dogs, so please contact us about the fees and acceptable "fur babies" you wish to bring.

You'll find bathrooms, utilities, dining, a beachfront bar, and a host of fun watersport rentals at the beach.

Enjoy a beach cart and four beach chairs as our standard amenities in the home!

Pool was warm- could have been cleaned. Walls could have used a fresh coat of paint - definitely looked marked and scratched. Kitchen could have used more pans, maybe a griddle. Lots of stairs to climb from level to level.

Cozy vacation home

From the moment we arrived, this beach house felt like our own little slice of paradise. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated with that relaxed coastal charm, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Afternoon walking the beach just steps away, and evenings with the sound of waves in the background—it was pure bliss.

Great location! Clean and comfortable. We always appreciate an updated, modern, and clean dog friendly rental. Short walk to the beach and Pompano Joes. My only complaint is there was no extra bedding. We were there for a week. Plenty of towels were provided for the bathrooms. I did not see any beach towels, so you may have bring your own. Having a washer/dryer was helpful. Would stay there again!

Wee at the Beach

The property was just as described and perfect for our party of 9! The only downside is that the "kids" room is on the 1st level so we ended up not using just strictly from a safety standpoint and being at street level. There are lots of stairs, which we handled just fine, but just an FYI. Area is very safe, there is additional parking within the complex and the check in and check out process is very, very simple. Our family would stay here again!

Great townhouse

Overall our experience was pretty good, my only disclaimer would be that there are visible spots where the walls have been touched up and it looks like the entire wall needs to be repainted. Also when we arrived I looked around on the ground outside the townhouse and there was trash that needed to be picked up, we tried keeping things picked up as best as possible. I also think a great addition to this rental would be patio furniture on the outside, because that would have been nice, when walking the building almost every other property had patio furniture. My only other disclaimer was the cleanliness of the pool. Other than those couple things we really liked the area and enjoyed the stay.

Beautiful townhome and great use of space

Overall the townhome had a good use of space for multiple families to stay for a week. It was walkable to the beach and drivable to Destin. The only negatives were the kitchen needed more things, such as potholders, containers, etc. Also, the air conditioning was irregular between rooms. We would definitely consider renting this place again.

The place was great! 3 floors and plenty of sleeping areas. Be ready for a lot of stairs but the main floor is a nice common space. The TV Internet wasn't working initially and there was a broken door on the TV cabinet which I notified the rental owners about, and they were quick to respond. It's a very convenient location to the beach. They provided a beach cart and 4 beach chairs which was amazing!!! My only biggest wish was that they had a golf cart to make things even easier. But I can also understand why they don't because it's only a hop skip and jump away from the beautiful Emerald Coast 😍

This home is beautiful and well equipped . we loved it the distance to the beach is great . Short ride on a bicycle and even better on a golf cart . Owner was very helpful with giving us information for this . The only complaint I have and its a small one is the parking at the home . You have an assigned spot but other renters and cleaning staff don't adhere to those rules . Its very narrow parking to begin with and everyone is in a SUV so I highly suggest parking your car and renting golf carts
