Experience Your Vacation Haven!

It has been said there are moments in life we live for … a week of sun, fun, and good friends. So why not make those times more memorable by securing a beachfront rental on the extraordinary Gulf of Mexico? Wave Catcher is located on desirable 30A, within the Dune Allen area, part of Santa Rosa Beach. It’s known for its idyllic surroundings and uncrowded beaches.

This house provides an extraordinary bird’s eye view from east to west of truly remarkable sunrises and sunsets. The designer of this home on stilts took full advantage of the view by installing floor-to-ceiling windows in the common area. In addition, an oversized window in the full-sized kitchen provides a breathtaking view of the rolling surf. There have been recent updates made to this home including new paint, new decking, and new furniture in the bedrooms and living area.

As you enter the main area, just inside the French doors, there is adequate seating for 12 to dine. The deck also offers plentiful seating for everyone to secure their favorite spot in the sun or to enjoy stargazing in the evening.

All four bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and smart TVs. The front-facing bedrooms have amazing Gulf views, while the back bedrooms overlook Oyster Lake, a very rare dune pond natural habitat. And, knowing how beach towels and bathing suits mount up, a separate laundry room with an ample cabinet, makes this chore a little more tolerable.

This venue comfortably sleeps ten.

My group of retired teachers just completed our 29th annual beach trip to 30A. Wave Catcher may be our absolute favorite rental. So clean, well stocked with views to die for. Having all 4 bedrooms and baths on the same level was a huge bonus. The living space accommodated 8 well and there were plenty of dishes for our meals. Not a single item that we needed was missing! Kudos!

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that your group of retired teachers enjoyed your 29th annual 30A beach trip at Wave Catcher. Knowing it may be your favorite rental yet truly means a lot to us. We’re glad the home’s cleanliness, fully stocked kitchen, breathtaking views, and single-level bedroom layout helped make your stay comfortable and convenient. It’s great to hear the living space worked well for your group of eight and that you had everything you needed for your meals. Your kind words are sincerely appreciated—kudos right back to you for being fantastic guests! We’d be honored to welcome you back for your 30th annual trip.

The house was clean, comfortable, spacious, with great views in both the front and back; and a super easy walk down to the water. Each room has its own private bathroom which is great when cleaning up to go out after a day at the beach. I would love to stay here again!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed the comfort, space, and beautiful views the home offers—along with the easy walk to the water. The private bathrooms in each room really do make beach days even easier! We’d love to have you stay with us again soon!

It was perfect for us and would recommend 100% , hope to be able to book again in the next few years for our family vacation! We loved having a quiet beach area right in front of the home , only 3 to 4 other families around on any day. Great location away from the hustle of the main areas but still close to grocery stores and such. A great plus for us was the 4 bedrooms and 4 separate baths, everyone had their own space and then main living area was great for everyone to eat and just hang out together while looking over the beach!

Manager's Response

That's what we love to hear, Laine! It truly warms our hearts to know that your recent stay with us was such a positive experience for your entire family. We are absolutely thrilled that you found everything you needed and felt completely comfortable during your time with us. We especially appreciate you mentioning the quiet beach area and the spacious layout, as those are features we pride ourselves on providing. We sincerely hope you and your family created some wonderful, lasting memories during your beautiful family vacation, soaking up the sun and enjoying the stunning beaches. We would be absolutely delighted if you would consider planning another unforgettable beach getaway with us in the near future; we are already looking forward to welcoming you back!

Beautiful stay. We have rented this home a couple times (2 times with previous owners and this time with MyVactionHaven). The ladies who I spoke with on the phone were lovely and called us to check in mid stay. The updates to the kitchen were a lovely touch. We spent most of our time on the deck overlooking the ocean. The house felt very clean and well maintained. We appreciated the welcome boxes in the kitchen and each bathroom. The beds weren’t as comfortable as I had hoped they would be. A little two hard for our taste. We also wished there were plush comforters, but we are a family who really loves to sleep on vacation so beds are always a big deal for us. All and all 5 stars! We will be back and can’t wait to book. Lovely lovely stay.

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the updates to the kitchen and the beautiful deck views. It's great to know the check-in calls and welcome boxes made your experience even better. We absolutely understand the importance of a good night's sleep, and while bed comfort can be subjective, we’ll keep your feedback in mind for future updates. We can’t wait to welcome you back next time for another lovely stay!

This is the second time we have stayed at this house. The proximity and setting could not be more perfect!! The expansive view is unbeatable! We had a bbq grill last year and it was no longer there. The lounge chairs on the deck are pretty uncomfortable but I know that anything with a cushion wouldn’t hold up. Overall, super pleased with this rental!

Manager's Response

It brings us great pleasure that we continue to exceed your expectations! We appreciate your feedback and we have passed that onto our operation team regarding the grill and seats. We hope to host you again in the future!

We loved everything about the house on the beach. We stayed 7 days. The house is located kinda close to the public beach access. We had problem with people from public beach access trying to set their umbrellas and chairs right in front of our chairs. ( between us and the beach). We had to ask people to move on down the beach on a daily basis. Some of them were nice about not setting up in front of our chairs but some had attitudes. I’ve rented different houses on different areas of the beach for several years and this has never been a problem. Not sure if it’s just Santa Rosa area but I will definitely look at proximity of public beach access for my next stay.

Great location. Close to everything but far enough for some privacy. Loved being able to walk right out to the beach from the house. We were there during busy season but had little traffic on the beach in the area. House was clean and very well stocked in all aspects. Only negative comment is I would have liked more comfortable patio furniture. Otherwise everything was great.
