Description Sugar & Shoreline: Santa Rosa Beach

Cross the street and you're on the sugar-white sand of Blue Mountain Beach – that's how close this six-bedroom house sits to the Gulf. Back on the plot, a private pool surrounded by coastal greenery, a screened porch, and a fenced backyard with a fireplace and grilling area give large groups everything they need to spread out and unwind without going anywhere. A six-passenger low-speed vehicle and four bikes are included, making it easy to explore Scenic 30A at your own pace.

Home truths:
* You'll need to bring your own beach and pool towels – bath towels and linens from the home aren't permitted to leave except for laundering.
* The primary renter must be at least 25 years old. If you're travelling with guests under 25, they'll need to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian – one adult over 25 for every four guests under 25.
* The swimming pool isn't fenced.
