The views are better than the pictures show. The three bedroom condo sleeps 6 adults and possible 1 child on the leather living room couch (not a fold- out bed but has roll out liner). The newly furnished balcony is completely private with seating for 6 with a table for food or drinks. The balcony can be accessed from the Living Room or the Master Bedroom. There are two full length sun lounges with small tables. This incredible unit features 10 foot ceilings, granite kitchen & bar counter-tops, updated kitchen appliances, wireless internet and a gas fireplace. The living room/ dining room and all three bedrooms have new hardwood floors. All bedrooms have their own private bathrooms, ceiling fans, cable boxes, HDTVs and DVR. The master bath has a large jet tub & separate marble walled shower. The living room has two ceiling fans and a new 55” adjustable flat screen smart HDTV w/cable box, DVD & a Blu-Ray player. The kitchen is fully furnished including small appliances such as a toaster, toaster oven, a blender & 2 coffee makers (drip style & Keurig unit). The cable network has the sports package and a DVR (recordable programing) package for the living room & master bedroom. Sanctuary at Redfish is situated on 14 beautiful acres that border Big Redfish Lake, an ultra-rare coastal dune lake. These lakes flow in & out of the Gulf & are unique & very rare throughout the world. In the United Stated dune lakes are only found adjacent to our very own Northwest Florida beaches. They are truly a treasure of nature & make this location a one-of-a-kind destination. Sanctuary at Redfish is a gated 64 unit, 3 story complex that does not ‘overwhelm’ the amenities provided, even at peak periods (unlike high rise apartment complexes). Sanctuary at Redfish has a giant tastefully landscaped pool complex with 4 swimming pools and two hot tubs. The large swimming pool has zero depth entry at the west end. The pool area is fully furnished with tables and chairs and pool side lounges. The three small pools are great for families and small children and help reduce the number of people in the large pool. There are two hot tubs bordering the large swimming pool and the pool complex is beautifully landscaped and lighted at night. At the back of the pool complex just past the Fire-pit are 5 Weber Gas Grills which are excellently maintained and replaced often. For beach goers, a shuttle boat service is provided (Shuttle service runs from March 1st through the end of November) from our dock for a quick 3 minute trip across Big Redfish Lake to our private white sands beach on the Gulf (or paddle across the lake to our private beach in one of the common kayaks or canoes - available when shuttle is running). An umbrella and two wooden beach lounge chairs will be set up daily on the beach for our guests (included in the rate). Extra chairs can be taken to the beach aboard the shuttle, but tents and extra umbrellas are prohibited (extra umbrellas and/or chairs can be rented by the on-site provider - La Dolce Vita). Alternatively, a short 10 minute walk to a private boardwalk (code provided for gate) also delivers you over the dunes onto the beach - (or back to the condo after an evening beach stroll). There is a full state-of-the-art gym complete with a water fountain, men's and women's bathroom and showers. Paved and Non-paved bike trails are accessed either in front of the complex or just down the street. Scenic Hwy 30A runs right in front of the complex connecting Blue Mountain Beach with Grayton Beach, Water Color, Seaside and Rosemary Beach resorts to mention a few and the paved bike trails run the length of these towns and more. Bicycle rentals are available close to the complex up the street at Big Daddy's Bike Shop. Also, a public beach with Lifeguards and public parking is located about 6 blocks from Sanctuary at Redfish (a good place to swim when the Gulf waves rise). For winter renters; one small pool is heated to 80 F throughout the winter (unless the temperature drops below 50 F and the heater is shut down) and two hot tubs are always running. Shuttle and common boats are not available from Nov. 1st to March 1st.

From check-in to check out everything was so easy & convenient. The location was perfect being right at the beach. You could see the ocean in the distance from our balcony each morning. We were able to walk to coffee & shops or drive within minutes. And we loved the pools and the ease of having the ferry take us over to the beach with chairs & umbrellas set up each days, very nice for our family of 6. The condo was bigger than we expected which was a nice surprise. We had a great stay. ##### Jennifer B.

We are drawn to an ocean setting and this is the perfect retreat. Once you walk in the front door and see how beautifully the condo is furnished, you immediately feel at home. It only gets better. Walk out onto the balcony, take in the scenery and breathe the ocean air. This is where we relax, read, drink coffee and nap. We love biking to Seaside, eating ice cream at Blue Mountain Creamery, walking long stretches of beach and taking advantage of all the amenities at this complex. You will leave feeling totally refreshed and thankful for experiencing such a beautiful place on earth. ##### Gary and Faith D.

The condo was wonderful. It was much bigger than I anticipated. Very clean and tastefully decorated. The pool and the beach were never crowded. I wasn't too sure about the boat service to the beach, but we never waited more than 5 mins for the boat. They also have a number of canoes and kayaks which my kids enjoyed. If you are the type of person that enjoys early morning walks on the beach, you must walk or take a kayak to the beach. The walk to the beach is a bit of a trek. Other than that, we loved the condo. ##### Sung H. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brent T., Lake Orion 8 Jun 2014 #### An Amazing Place! This was such a wonderful place to stay! It is nicely decorated and the furniture and beds were very comfortable. The pictures show how nice it is but it's size is so much bigger. More then enough room for a family of five. The condo is stocked with EVERYTHING you would need. Michael was GREAT to work with and very committed to making sure he could do everything to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Sanctuary at Redfish had everything you would want. It was never busy at the pool or beach. I personally was concerned about the point of getting to the beach via the pontoon boat before our trip. It was actually very nice and very convenient. I have no regrets with this resort or condo at all. I only look forward to another trip to the Sanctuary at Redfish and this condo next year! ##### Brent T.

We stayed for a week and had a wonderful time at Redfish. My son was able to fish with his friend . I along with my wife had a great time at the beach which was just over the lake. The boat was easy to take over to the beach and boat captain was easy to contact. The Blue Mountain area is a great place to get away from the rat race of crowded beaches during holiday periods. The condo had everything that we would need for a week. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils for any cooking that would need to be done on a vacation. The condo had a washer and dryer that worked great. The pools were awesome. The people that stayed were mainly families with children and a few retired couples. What a great place. I am hoping to get to go back soon. ##### jeff f. ### 8/10 Good #### Amanda L. 13 Jun 2018 #### Location is great. Views are beautiful. Pros: The views are better than pictured. The condo is spacious and the layout is nice. The layout of the sleeping rooms are separate from the main living space, great for families who may have kids that go to bed earlier than the rest of the family. The pools are great. Cons: We traveled with 2 other families and their hosts let them check in at 2:30 instead of 4, but we were told there is s strict no early check in policy. There’s no documentation in the condo of common amenities and things guests would want to know (like all beach access points, check in/ out instructions, where to find common things guests may need, recommendations from the host, WiFi, etc). The condo dishwasher doesn’t work great. I had to wash a load of dishes multiple times to get it clean, and found dirty dishes in the cabinets where presumably other guests hadn’t noticed the dishwasher was lacking. If you have ATT you won’t be able to make calls from the condo and the WiFi is pretty spotty as well. ##### Amanda L. Stayed 7 nights in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Cheryl D., Zeeland, Michigan 5 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Santa Rosa Beach condo - great for vacation but not remote work Pros: - gorgeous lake/ocean view from the balcony and lovely pool area - the condo is spacious, and looks like the photos - the surrounding area is lovely - Grayton Beach State Park, Seaside, and the beaches Cons: - I had inquired about Internet access prior to booking since I planned to work part time while there for a month and was assured it was reliable and should be fine. While we did have Internet access most of the time - it was very slow and I was not able to use VPN to connect to work files or participate in Teams calls consistently. We had stayed at another condo in Sandestin the month prior and had no issues at all with that access. - the furniture in the condo is quite firm (mattresses and new L-shaped sofa). However the balcony chairs were comfortable for us. - it has a rather eclectic collection of dishes, pots/pans that could use a refresh. - the unit is not very soundproof but the owners did provide large fans that were helpful to reduce noise at night. In summary - a great option if you are there for the pool and ocean and the view and not concerned about the cons I mentioned. However, I do not recommend it for remote work. ##### Cheryl D.
