Furnishings are all tastefully upscale with an eye towards comfort and create a serene ambiance. Soft pleasing pastel colors are used throughout along with decorative art that provides a fabulous Floridian feel. A wall of windows in the open Great Room provides full views of the shimmering gulf, which are tropically framed on each side by towering palm trees. Sliding glass doors lead out to the breezy balcony from both the living and dining areas. The large Master Suite is decorated in soothing color tones and has a big four posted king sized bed that faces a wall mounted flat screen TV.

Ramsgate 9 is an attractive (and quiet) one bedroom beachfront hideaway that sits atop an ancient sand dune overlooking the luminescent waters of the gorgeous gulf. This rental is located in the southwest corner of this residential complex, which provides spectacular views of the sunset. Two walls of windows provide panoramic views of this sensational scenery while cathedral ceilings enhance the spacious living area.

This location is at the far eastern end of Seagrove Beach and is adjacent to Camp Creek Lake and Deer Lake State Park. Besides the pristine beautiful beach you can hike for miles on trails that meander throughout the massive forested park and enjoy getting in tune with nature. However you are still close to a wide assortment of unique restaurants, friendly bars, specialty shops and fun seasonal festivals in nearby Seaside as well as Seagrove Beach itself.

We have three choice vacation rental properties available at Blue Mountain Villas in the charming quiet South Walton town of Blue Mountain Beach. This locale is close to many area restaurants and shopping along Scenic 30A in nearby Santa Rosa and Grayton Beach. The community's claim to fame is that it sits on the highest elevation anywhere along the Gulf of Mexico. Blue Mountain Beach was named by early Spanish explorers who were mapping the area from far off the coast. The indigenous Blue Lupine was in full bloom at the time covering the hills above the beach. The explorers mistook these for blue colored mountains on the beach, hence the name. Blue Mountain Villas sits perched upon one of these dunes with sensational views of the emerald hued waters. This is a romantic serene setting as a special beach getaway spot. There are views of the gleaming gulf extending as far as the eye can see from covered patios in two of the units that are beside a lush lawn that borders the sugary dune. It is a truly divine view since the expanse of the gulf at this height is fully enhanced by the sparkling southerly views. A staircase conveniently leads down from the lawn to the jeweled water's edge.
Blue Mountain Villas 11 has been completely remodeled with new comfortable furnishings and state of the art everything. The main open living area has a long beige cloth couch and a nice dining table that can seat four. A large TV is wall mounted and available for evening entertainment. The openness of this room and the wide expanse of glass windows provide lovely views of the gulf. Sliding glass doors lead to the patio where you may hear and see the sensational surf. The kitchen has new stainless steel appliances and a bar with a sleek charcoal colored granite countertop. The cozy bedroom has a charming nostalgic old Florida ambiance as well as a queen-sized bed and another wall mounted TV.
If you have close friends who want to visit as well but you all want your own space, another one bedroom vacation rental Blue Mountain Villas 12 is right next door. Its open living area also has full views of the glistening gulf throughout with sliding glass doors that beckon you out onto the private patio so that you may enjoy the dazzling vista. The living room is cheerfully decorated in pleasing pastel nautical colors, which include the big comfortable couch in blue accented by a love seat. A handsome armoire houses the TV and provides a warm homey feel. Nearby a dining table with four chic looking high backed chairs sits beneath a shaded chandelier. The kitchen is light and bright with white cabinetry as well as a nice breakfast bar with two raised saddle topped stools. Another table out on the covered patio allows you to enjoy tasty appetizers and drinks while soaking up the scenery. The comfortable bedroom has a raised king sized bed that faces a wall mounted TV.
Blue Mountain Villas 21 is a unique three level unit with two bedrooms as well as another special bonus loft. The main living area has sweeping panoramic views of gulf, which are readily apparent as soon as you enter. A set of plate glass windows frames this sensational scenery. A beachfront balcony allows you to take in these views up front and center. A cream-colored couch and armchairs sit beside the windows facing a wide screen TV. Colorful decorative Floridian styled art on the walls gives you a cheerful sense of happiness. Eight may dine around a big rectangular oak table and four more can saddle up to the granite topped island. The modern kitchen features new stainless steel appliances. A lovely spacious Master Bedroom Suite upstairs has a vaulted ceiling and a set of glass doors that lead to an intimate private viewing balcony. The Guest Bedroom has two full beds decorated with a whimsical nautical theme. The special Bonus Loft Bedroom with two brightly colored twin beds is on the top level.

We are also pleased to let you know about another wonderful property that is now ready for its first guests. Boothbay 5 is a spectacular beachfront townhome located in fashionable Seacrest Beach. The serene awesome locale is somewhat surprising since you are minutes away from restaurants, specialty stores, seasonal events and friendly bars in prestigious Alys Beach as well as the exceedingly charming Dutch colonial styled village of Rosemary Beach. This two-story residence has three bedrooms, three baths and a half bath Powder Room. It sits high upon a dune with totally unobstructed views of the pristine coastline along with the shimmering emerald hued waters. A beachfront porch on the first floor and a balcony above it off the Master Suite share these marvelous views.
