White Shell Sea

Sitting directly on 310 feet of white-sand beach along the Gulf of Mexico, this villa earns its place in the Emerald Coast by making the water feel ever-present – from the living room, the dining room, and the balcony off the main bedroom. The Gulf-front infinity-edge pool adds another layer to beach days, heated through the cooler months, while the complimentary morning beach setup and included bike rentals mean you can move between sand and shoreline without a second thought. Harborwalk Village, with its waterfront dining and live music, is about a twenty-two-minute drive when you're ready to venture out.

Home truths:
* You'll need to bring your own beach and pool towels – bath towels and linens may not be taken from the home.
* You have two dedicated parking spaces here.
* The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.
* The bedroom window shades are quite thin and may let in light from the exterior walkway at night – light sleepers may want to pack an eye mask.
* A complimentary beach setup is included with your stay from March to October, with two chairs and an umbrella provided each morning, plus unlimited bike rentals and two dedicated parking spaces.
