Our family enjoyed our vacation stay at this piece of paradise. Close to the beach with views from the master suite. The backyard and pool area offered more than enough space for our family. The home was supplied with all the amenities necessary for our stay. Beautiful inside and out! Thank you so much.

Our family had a fabulous week at this home in Santa Rosa. The home is beautifully decorated, lots of space, well equipped kitchen, stock with the essentials, balconies on every floor with views of the pool, koi pond, lake behind the home or the beach in the distance. The lower level has a nice size pool, covered porch and sun porch as well as a fenced in grass area. Beach access is right up the street as well as a walking/bike path. Right off 30a there are several restaurants. Destin is 30 mins away. The home sits on a nice quite street.Perfect family getaway. We will definitely be back.

This home was perfect for our family. The living area was open and spacious and the bedrooms were plenty spacious and comfortable. We cooked several meals and had everything we needed to prepare them. Our favorite thing was the backyard area with swimming pool. Plenty of chairs for lounging, great pool and deck as well as a yard that our dogs could use to run and play. Owners were very responsive and available for all of our questions.

The private beach access was fantastic - not crowded at all and pristine white sand with gorgeous turquoise water. Host was fantastic to communicate with and house was exactly as pictured! We walked to the beach or parked in a nearby spot along the road. This area of 30A seems like the least crowded which we loved.

Pat & John were wonderful local hosts that ensured the smallest of details. Great love went into this home and it is Beautiful. The Pool & Spa were Amazing & the Koi Pond was a Hit.
We enjoyed our stay & hope one day to be back again.

We ended up enjoying the home as much as the beach itself. There was a riptide situation and seaweed washing up so with young swimmers we were nervous about staying at the beach and allowing them to play in the ocean even supervised. With the house we were able to relax and the kids could practice swimming until the flag was not red. We also brought our dog and was able to have her with us. We used every room with two kids, parents and daughter. It was all we needed!

This house was perfect for our family of five and large pup! It was so spacious and comfortable. Super clean, well stocked and beautiful. Our kids are all in agreement that this was their favorite beach rental we have stayed in, and they are probably at 20+ beach trips! Great communication! We would be thrilled to come back!

Our family could not have choose a better property to enjoy our 4 week vacation! The weather totally threw us under the bus the entire stay! However the house rescued us and provided every comfort we could have ever asked for! We made some of the best memories ever, the house was everything we could ever ask for!
The living room fireplace was a huge hit as well as the hot tub! Kitchen was big and spacious! We enjoyed many hours of playing volleyball in the heated pool! Our pets absolutely hated leaving the large yard.
See you next year Gulf Pearl!

A great place for a family vacation. Loved the private beach accessibility and the location is nice and quiet. The pool area is perfect for a family party.

This was the first trip to the beach that we didnโt go to the beach. We enjoyed the pool and just relaxing around the pool. We even stayed at the house and cooked, completely different for us. The house had everything you needed and more. I didnโt need the sound of the ocean because we had the sound of the BEAUTIFUL Koi Pond. The owners are kind and wanted to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed. Again one of the most relaxing family time we have had in Florida and we have been going for many years. Thank you Pat and Jon for letting us rent your beautiful house for the week. We all enjoyed it. Debbie

We had a wonderful time at this house. We came with family and brought our dogs. The dogs loved running around chasing lizards in the large fenced in yard. When we had trouble with the Keurig (probably pilot error) and I reached out to Pat for some guidance, she very kindly brought over a new one though there was still a coffee pot and another Keurig for us to use. She was vey kind and super responsive. We would definitely consider staying at this house if we are in the area again.

Our week was perfect! Our first vacation with our grandbabies, the house is perfect. The house is just as pictures show, beautifully decorated and clean. Main floor offers nice space for family togetherness and each bedroom provides nice space and privacy. Pat and Jon are awesome. Any questions or concerns that you have are answered immediately. We are looking forward to our next stay, House is close to beach access and lots of great restaurants and shopping.

We really liked the place and the owner was very helpful. Really well stocked kitchen (they even had olive oil, salt/pepper). We ended up renting a golf cart which was easier. It is only 0.6 to the beach but it was >90 degrees every day. Only downside was further to other restaurants etc but we were happy.

The property exceeded our expectations. The additional amenities (home furnishings, beach accessories) and bikes were great. The property is off 30A but is on a dead end street, which provided a tremendous amount of privacy. Beach access is close and and easy walk. We had six adults, two teenagers and a nine year old and everyone had a great time. I recommend.

This property is excellent. It was definitely a plus to have the pool and hot tub. We used them a lot! I would highly recommend a golf cart. We took ours everywhere. Pat was great to work with. I would definitely stay here again.

Before our arrival Pat ensured that we knew how the check-in process worked. We enjoyed our family vacation at the Santa Rosa Beach during June 17-24, 2023. The house layout enabled each of our adult children and their family to have separate floors and private bathrooms. The walk to the beach is very easy.
Our family enjoyed the backyard pool and the heated hot tub!
Pat is a very gracious host and ensured all needs were meet and would highly recommend booking this house!

Pat was amazing to work with. We communicated prior to the arrival and was able to check in early. She was able to answer any and all questions from the beginning to end of the stay. There was a minor problem with one of the shower doors and she came and fixed it which was very impressive. The house is equipped with pretty much any and everything you could possibly need for a week. I would definitely recommend this house and may even make it back some day. My party of 10 had a wonderful time, it was nice having a big house like this because there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out.

We really enjoyed our extended 3 week stay at the Gulf Pearl. This property is nestled in a fairly secluded area on the west end of 30A. The private beach access worked out great (I would recommend renting a golf cart to help with the getting around). Pat and Jon checked in with us periodically and were very responsive and helpful throughout the stay. Top floor master with views of the gulf was outstanding. The pool and backyard amenities were great options to wrap up the beach days. Looking forward to heading back!

We had a great stay at this property. Located on a quiet street itโs a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to grocery stores and restaurants. House was great. Lots of TVs and all the other things you need. We cooked most of our meals at the house and it had everything we needed. Big spaces to be together and lots of room to spread out.
The backyard is big and very private. The pool, hot tub, and seating areas is where we spent a lot of our time.
What a great week. Weโll definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our two week vacation. New to retirement it was great to check out the area. Close to the State Park. We enjoyed that it was off season. The backyard is a nice oasis. We rented a golf cart and found that helpful. Great communication from the owners.

My husband and two teen daughters stayed for Fall break. The house is located at the quiet end of 30A which we absolutely LOVED! You can easily hit Seaside or San Destin within a few minutes - very convenient, central location for our needs. We didn't leave the house much as I found all I needed to cook most of our meals - we've never stayed at a house with so many spices and pantry staples - amazing! The the girls really enjoyed the pool and all the loungers - the outdoor furniture was super clean as well as the pool deck. My husband and I rode bikes to the beach almost every morning to enjoy some quiet time. The ride was fairly flat although you do have to cross 30A twice, but the drivers are VERY considerate to let you cross. The house has a lot of steps, so if you have health conditions this house is probably not for you. It worked perfectly for my family as we all like our together time and also enjoy our own space. The master suite on the very top floor was exceptional, AC worked fantastic, and the wrap-around deck views up there are gorgeous (especially at sunset). My girls loved feeding the koi every day. It really was one of our most relaxing trips yet... we very much enjoyed the downtime and amenities of this house. Well done Pat - a lot of love has gone into this house and it sure shows!

We had a great time at this property, the pool, hot tub and back yard were amazing! The rooms were all big and able to fit our extended family comfortably. Warning, there are a lot of stairs, this was not an issue for us at all, but might be for others. The private beach was amazing and quite, but quite a walk to get too and not much parking once there, again, not a problem for us but might be a consideration. Overall we loved this property.

This is a great large property for a family! There were nine of us on vacay and there was plenty of room for all!
Perfect home for teens who want their own space.
We loved being close to Destin but not in the crazy traffic. Best stocked home we have stayed at. Hosts were gracious and close by if anything should arise. Kids loved the Koi pond!
Thanks for a great stay!

Great house & pool, location was perfect, quiet street/neighborhiod & walking distance to beach. TheAny questions we had were answered quickly. House manual including things to do. Nice to have bikes to use too.

We wish there was a map showing how long the walk to the private beach was, along with parking availability. The walk is not bad for adults and teens, if you have small children it is a bit far. Especially after your done on the beach and need to walk home with cranky kids.
We also wish we notified that we did not have access to the lake from the property.
Other than that the house was one of the best we have stayed in for our family vacation. It was very accommodating for our large group. It had tons of room, plenty of kitchen supplies, very clean, the hosts were more than helpful, and we enjoyed our time there very much!
