Description

This custom-built vacation home features five bedrooms and comfortably accommodates up to 14 fortunate guests. This Grayton Beach location is nestled off South Walton's Scenic 30A in the residential community of Gulf Trace. Completed in July of 2014 and professionally decorated, it's comfortably furnished and appointed with an abundance of amenities. Gulf Breeze at Gulf Trace provides guests with the luxuries of home while residing here on a vacation stay at the beach. It has a coastal look of casual elegance and ample room for multiple family members or friends with two separate living areas.

This hospitable home is situated just steps away from the sugary shore and emerald-hued waters of the glowing gulf. A rare coastal dune lake is right down the beach. This additional body of water is scarce and found in only a few other places in the world. This lake has a magical composition created when the dunes periodically open a freshwater estuary connection to the Gulf's salt water. Besides splashing around in the surf, you may want to catch some fish or go paddle boarding on this serene lake. You also have the option of taking a refreshing pool plunge right out back. This gracious home has its own 38' x 16' private saltwater swimming pool. It features colorful LED lights for a magical evening effect and an expansive patio studded with tropical palms that's perfect for lounging around and having fun.   

The open living and dining area has a triple panel of windows that look out onto the pool with a glass door for easy access. A white wrap-around couch faces these views, along with a large TV for entertainment. A rectangular hardwood dining table with eight high-backed straw woven chairs has a tropical look and inspires family feasts. The open kitchen has everything you need to make this happen. It also has a granite-topped bar with saddle-topped stools where drinks and appetizers may be served.

 The first floor showcases a Master Bedroom with a king-sized bed beside windows that look out upon the pool patio. A private en-suite bath includes a glass-walled walk-in shower. A half bathroom off the hallway serves as a convenient powder room. The cottage-styled Guest Quarters are upstairs with access to a large nautically attired den with a queen-sized sleeper sofa, a big TV, a Wet Bar with a wine cooler, and glass doors leading to a furnished covered balcony overlooking the pool. One Guest Bedroom has a king-sized bed and en-suite bath. Two full hall baths serve the other Guest Rooms with queen beds in two and double twin bunks in the other.

This home in Gulf Trace is in a seemingly remote world of its own but minutes away from excellent restaurants, friendly beach bars, and specialty shops in nearby "downtown" Grayton Beach and Seaside.

Our family had an enjoyable stay at Gulf Trace. Our house was clean and close to the beach.
Our family loved the quiet and privacy of Gulf Trace. We loved staying at the home we rented.

Amazing house with perfect pool.
Spacious, beautiful and clean! Kitchen had all items needed. Private property and one min walking distance to the beach! The only downfall was i needed to buy extra trash bags, napkins, and toilet paper because we were a family of 12 and we stayed for 5 days. Overall, i recommend the house and we will definitely book again next year! Thank you

Wonderful family vacation!!!
My family thoroughly enjoyed Gulf Breeze! The kitchen was very well-stocked, the home was very spacious and tastefully designed. The walk to the beach was very short and convenient. Overall we had no complaints and Ocean Reef was very responsive every time that we needed anything or had a question, we'll definitely be back again in the future!

Could you tell me where the beach access is located in relation to this house?
Angie E - Posted: 03/13/2022

Answer:

The beachfront neighborhood of Gulf Trace includes two beach access points for owner and guest use. The one closest to Gulf Breeze is located at the end of Gulf Breeze Dr, less than a two-minute walk away. The other is located to the east along Gulf Shore Dr. 

Is beach service included?
Nicole M - Posted: 06/21/2022

Answer:

Beach chairs and umbrellas are not provided complimentary, but are most certainly available for rent. Once you have secured your reservation, we will provide you with the beach services contact information. You can reserve chairs and umbrellas over the phone, or directly on the sand. See you soon!

Can this pool be heated?
Jennifer J - Posted: 06/27/2022

Answer:

Gulf Breeze is a beautiful five-bedroom vacation home in Gulf Trace of Grayton Beach. It includes a refreshing private pool, but it cannot be heated.

Are there any items at the house for toddlers, crib, porta crib, high chair, booster seat?
Maryann N - Posted: 10/29/2022

Answer:

Gulf Breeze is a gorgeous 30A vacation home in Gulf Trace of Grayton Beach! It does not include baby gear, but you do receive discounts on these items by being an Ocean Reef guest. Here is a link to discounted baby equipment!

Is a dog allowed?
Cory B - Posted: 12/04/2023

Answer:

We love our dogs here at Ocean Reef, however - Gulf Breeze is not a pet-friendly property. If you are unable to board your pup, you may want to consider one of these Pet Friendly Rentals.
