Steps to the Beach, Pool & Pier – Your Pensacola Escape with hot tub

Purple Haze is a bright and spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat tucked inside the private, gated community of Santa Rosa Villa Estates. Perfectly positioned between the sparkling Gulf of Mexico and the peaceful Santa Rosa Sound, this home offers the best of both worlds—sugar-white sands just steps away and calm waters for sunset strolls or paddleboarding.
Inside, you’ll find an open, sunlit layout with a fully stocked chef’s kitchen, cozy living room with smart TV and fireplace, and plenty of dining space for gathering with family and friends. Multiple porches and balconies invite you to relax with a morning coffee or evening cocktail while soaking up the coastal breeze.
The home comfortably sleeps families and groups, featuring three queen bedrooms (including a master suite with private balcony and spa-style bath) plus a twin room perfect for kids.
Step outside to enjoy the ultimate vacation setup—covered patio with hot tub, fire pit, outdoor TV, dining area, and all the beach essentials, from chairs and towels to bikes and toys. Guests also have access to the newly renovated community pool, private pier, and boat dock, all just across the street.
Located less than 4 miles from the lively Pensacola Beach boardwalk, with a seasonal trolley stop right outside the community, Purple Haze is your ideal blend of relaxation, family fun, and coastal adventure.

Girls weekend

Booked this for my wife and her friends the following is her review: we had a great time. The house is beautiful. You have the option to go to the sound side to swim, boat, or fish. If you have kids the sound side is much safer for kids. Or just walk across the street to the beach. The place was beautiful. Easy check in and check out. I would definitely stay here again.

Paradise Found! The Perfect Vacation Home for Families and Friends – 10/10!

This home was everything we dreamed of for our Pensacola Beach getaway! The property is spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed with coastal charm. The 4 bedrooms were comfortable, with the master suite’s private balcony and fireplace being a standout. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the open-concept living area was bright and inviting. The outdoor spaces were incredible! We loved the front porch for morning coffee, the back porch with a TV and hot tub, and the fire pit for evenings. The host provided so many extras—beach chairs, towels, life jackets, bicycles, and even a crib and high chair for families. Thoughtful touches like puzzles, games, and extra blankets made it feel like home. The location is unbeatable, steps from the Gulf’s emerald waters and in a quiet, gated community. Though the community pool was under renovation, the beach access more than made up for it. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. This is hands down the best vacation rental we’ve stayed in. If you’re looking for comfort, style, and convenience, this home has it all. We’re already planning our return trip!

This place has EVERYTHING!

Great house, great location, SO well-stocked! You literally just need to bring clothes and food. We have stayed in several beach rentals over the years and there is always something they are missing. NOT THIS ONE! They had plenty of beach chairs, toys, umbrellas, bicycles and towels for our whole family. Not to mention a kayak, hot tub and fire pit in the backyard! The inside of the house is just as well stocked as the outside. There are plenty of linens, towels, kitchenware, etc. as you would expect. But some well thought out extras too, like board games, cookware, and a baby gate for the stairs(godsend). The house itself is updated, spacious and has a nice layout. You can tell it has been renovated recently and the appliances are all brand new. It was super clean when we arrived and I can't think of anything I would change really. The location is awesome. Walking distance to the gulf and the sound. We saw some amazing wildlife...dolphins one day and some really playful sting rays the next. There is also a neighborhood pool which was really nice to have after being in the gulf. Plenty of food choices nearby and we enjoyed BadAss coffee each morning right down the street. All in all I would say that this house exceeded our expectations and we definitely plan to visit again next year.

Moms 70th bday

My sister said this: Beautiful and perfect beach house! It was immaculate and very comfortable. I have never stayed at a rental with so many great accommodations. This house truly had everything you could need - chairs, beach towels, sand toys, bikes, beach bags. It’s an EXCELLENT, quiet location. We really enjoyed the very easy access to BOTH the gulf and sound side as well as the pool. And I second all of that! Fully stocked. In a quiet area. Will definitely be coming again!
