Family Beachhouse with Private Heated Pool!

Looking for a home that will accommodate large or multiple families? La Vida del Sol is it!!!

Our beach house features two covered porches appointed with relaxing wicker rockers and chairs, a huge deck overlooking the private pool and terrace level lanai (covered) adjacent to the pool.

As you enter the driveway, you experience the tranquil view of the private pool area featuring comfortable lawn chairs, a dining table & chairs, gas grill, and outdoor shower; all enclosed for privacy by a white picket fence.

Entering on the Terrace Level, the cozy media room opens directly onto the covered lanai for relaxing in the sun or shade while enjoying family and friends. There is a queen bedroom and full bath off the media room. The sofa in the media room also serves as a queen size bed, when needed. The double garage is filled with beach chairs, beach wagon, pool toys/floats, and bicycles, plus an extra refrigerator, washer and dryer for your convenience.

The Main Level invites you into a wonderful open and spacious Great Room, Dining Room and Kitchen with Florida views and access to the secluded front covered porch – great for morning coffee. There is a full bath and two bedrooms (queen and double bunk) as well, with access to the large deck overlooking the pool.

The Upper Level Master bedroom suite (queen and full bath) accesses a small balcony with a view of the pool.

La Vida del Sol is spacious both inside and out and has four TV’s throughout the home

• Media Room with a 55" Smart HD LED TV, Blueray home theater -CD, DVD, mp3
• 27” Flat screen TV in upper level Master Bedroom
• 27” flat screen TV w/DVD player in Children’s room
• Main floor 27” flat screen w/DVD player

Wireless internet and cable are provided for your entertainment.

We are located on a quiet residential street just off Hwy 30A at Seacrest Beach in White's Gulfview Estates, which is a “stone’s throw” west of trendy Alys Beach. Only 100 steps from the house, you’ll find the private beach boardwalk used exclusively for White's Gulfview residents.

La Vida del Sol is perfect for vacationing with family and friends. If you're not a beach bum, South Walton is considered a golfer's paradise. There are numerous golf courses in the area. However, if golf isn't you're thing, you can take a morning stroll along the beach or bike, walk or jog the 18-mile path that winds along Scenic 30A passing several lakes and National parks offering gorgeous views of the Gulf. Shopaholics can browse the unique shops and boutiques and foodies will be delighted by the many casual or fine dining choices in nearby Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach & Seaside.

Moreover, there is always something going on around the South Walton beaches including markets, craft fairs, free outdoor theatre/concerts, and much more.

Great Stay in FL
This was our first VRBO in the panhandle of FL. A very lovely house and the location so excellent. The house was lovely. Very accurate description. This was the first time we used VRBO with a pool and it was excellent. The kids and adults loved it. While the house and pool were great, the access to a very nice, wide beach was also very beautiful. The best of both water worlds. Easy access to house. Well supplied kitchen. thanks for the opportunity to share this Florida experience.

Purchase a vacation each year for our family for Christmas. We love this home, just recently returned home from our 3rd stay...my young grandson refers to it as "Grammy's Beach House"...truly is our home away from home. Location is wonderful, great host and property manager is very responsive. Each time we return the house/furnishings have been updated in some way. Private pool is well used during our stay...and we get to bring our small dogs. A great little retreat for our growing family. Couldn't ask for more! Looking forward to returning and continuing to make memories here!!!

Great location, lots of steps down to the beach
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is in a great location, close to Publix, Shades and The Donut Hole restaurants (which we enjoy), shopping in Rosemary Beach and there is plenty of space for family. The pool area is nice as well with much needed shade. The garage had lots of pool/beach toys and chairs and a wagon to take items down to the beach. There is also a washer and dryer in the garage and an additional refrigerator which is helpful. A couple of cons: The owner needs to clean out the cupboards as there was no place to put groceries! Also, many of the pans/skillets/cookie sheets need to be replaced. (I'm not expecting All Clad but some of the pans are really shabby). Also, like most houses in this area, this is vertical living. If that's not for you, then heads up. Finally, while the private beach access is close, it's at least 60 steps down to the beach. (The beach is nice once you get there). The property manager was very nice and responsive.

The house was perfect for our family (5 adults and 2 kids ages 4 and 2-1/2). The location is very close to the beach and easily within walking distance. The pool was perfect after a day at the beach. No complaints at all!

Great place!!
Great house for families! Plenty of room for everyone. We are an extremely picky family and very hard to please and we were satisfied with our stay at this home. The pool is small but a great thing to have right outside in the backyard. The wall to the beach is short, however, the climb back up the steps is a bit steep. I will say that our only two complaints would be more linens, definitely need more bath towels, and maybe an upgrade of some of the mattresses. Other than that we were completely comfortable and satisfied with the house.

Honest Review
Good: location is great, amenities are good, air worked well, check in was simple. Bad: TV in main family room is outdated (20” low res in cabinet) only “new TV” is in basement, “new leather furniture” is tired/outdated, linens are not updated, house has a lot of potential, just isn’t cared for. I texted property owner 3x at number listed on the fridge with no answer all week (Lisa 850-819-6936) - disappointing. We had black ants in lower level, all furniture under deck is rusted/outdated. Those new blue chairs were all in plastic in the garage so I got to put all those out to even use the pool area. Pool needs a deep clean - bottom is black. We have stayed at more than 20 houses with VRBO on these streets and this feels like bait/switch with the listing/reviews posted. My advice is they should deep clean and upgrade as stated in the listing and then get a management company.

This beach house was great for our family vacation. It had plenty of space for our large family. Fully stocked with everything we needed and things we didn’t even know we would need. Very short walk to the beach. Great space! Would definitely occupy again and/or recommend to others!

Everything was great, very close walk to the beach. The online description says you can see the gulf view from 3rd floor, we were not able to, not a problem, just think maybe that should be updated on the description. Also, bring your own ice, the refrigerator doesn't make enough to keep up. Everything else was just as it says online. The family had a great time!

We had a wonderful experience. We had 12 in our party and everyone had a bed and space. The best part was the short walk to the beach and location. 30a can be busy but it didn’t feel like it here! We will be back.

Great Location
We had a lovely stay at this property. The house was exactly as portrayed and the location is great! There are some minor updates that could be done but nothing that took away from the enjoyment of our stay. The walk to the beach is quick and easy. We were able to easily bike to Alyce and Rosemary Beach with the bikes provided (2 adults and 2 kid bikes). It's also a short drive/bike ride in the other direction to the The Big Chill. The pool was the perfect addition. The heater broke our second day there but the owner quickly made arrangements for it to be fixed and reimbursed us the cost of heating it when it wasn't able to be fixed right away.

Great house and location
House was very clean. Bedding has been updated since photos in listing. Bathrooms are on the small side, but worked for us. Nice separation of sleeping areas. Great pool and very short walk to the beach. Loved it! But, if anyone in your party struggles with stairs, this probably isn’t the house for you. An older adult could stay in the downstairs bedroom and handle the stairs to and from the kitchen, but the stairs out front and out back of the house may be more of a challenge. Beach access has four flights of stairs. Again, worked for us, but perhaps not everyone, especially if you want to haul a wagon or large coolers to the beach. Never struggled to find beach frontage along the private access, even during busy Spring Break.

An AMAZING Spring Break!
My husband and I took our son and a couple of his friends to Florida for Spring Break, and we stayed at this lovely property. It is absolutely beautiful and just as pictured on the site, with the exception of the new furniture in the downstairs media room, which was really nice! Check-in was simple and it is a very short walk to the beach. This property is now our FAV! We loved the home and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
