What You Will Love About Mermaid’s Retreat

Welcome to Mermaid’s Retreat (formerly 30A Frame), a one-of-a-kind southern-style chalet in the heart of the Gulfview Heights community of Santa Rosa Beach. This pet-friendly, three-bedroom vacation home accommodates up to ten guests and offers the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern comfort. Its iconic white A-frame design features a wraparound balcony with cushioned rocking chairs where you can enjoy the coastal breeze. Down below, a wood bench swing under a majestic Live Oak provides a peaceful spot to relax, while the backyard’s paver patio surrounds a sparkling private pool, complete with in-water seating for soaking up the sun.

A nearby bathroom with a walk-in shower also serves as a poolside powder room. The second-floor living area boasts vaulted ceilings, beach-washed hardwood tile flooring, and cozy seating around a large flat-screen TV. A rustic hardwood dining table seats eight, while the open kitchen, with stainless steel appliances and granite counters, inspires memorable meals. A king guest bedroom with cottage-style furnishings and a hall bath complete this level. The third floor houses a primary suite with a king-size bed, an ensuite bath, and access to a private rooftop sundeck, along with a cozy loft area featuring two twin beds.
