300 Steps to Beach, Luxury Feel, Very Private Pool, Hot Tub, 4 Kings, Dog Run

Welcome to Luxury Dune Retreat, your sanctuary crafted for unforgettable time together. Four private king suites, two Gulf-facing balconies, a brand-new heated pool, and shaded hot tub greet you just steps from sugar-white beaches. Scallop in crystal-clear St. Joseph Bay by day, then come home to watch your pups play in the fenced run while you unwind in the outdoor lounge with cold drinks from the mini fridge. Fire up the propane grill for fresh catch dinners. It is the kind of place where mornings start slow with coffee on the deck, stories stretch late into the night, and you look around grateful to have everyone together in one beautiful place.

The Space:
Your beach getaway, made easy. Four king suites with private bathrooms means privacy for everyone and zero bathroom traffic jams. The primary suite shines with a spa-like en suite, soaking tub, double vanities, and walk-in shower. Each bedroom is its own retreat. Spread out when you want, come together when it matters.

Open-concept living flows from a spacious kitchen with stone countertops and top-of-the-line appliances into dining for eight and a living room where Gulf breezes drift through. Smart TVs throughout keep rainy afternoons easy. Board games wait for family game night. High-speed Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected. Life here moves at the pace it should.

Head upstairs and discover a bonus living area with a day bed, smart TV, and work desk for remote needs. A coffee bar and mini fridge complete this upper-level retreat. Step out to the second Gulf-facing balcony and let the panoramic views take your breath away.

Step outside and find your rhythm. The brand-new heated pool glows under the stars. The shaded hot tub tucked beneath the home offers a cool escape from the sun. The outdoor lounge area with TV and mini fridge invites you to spend the whole day outside in comfort. The fenced dog run (complete with dog bed, bowls, and crate) lets your furry family play while you lounge in view. After beach days, rinse off in the hot and cold outdoor shower, then fire up the propane grill. Challenge someone to ping-pong, cornhole, or bocce ball. Ample driveway and boat parking mean you bring everything you need. Walk across the dune and claim your spot on one of Florida's last beautiful, uncrowded, white sand, coastland. This is how the Gulf is meant to be lived.
