About this property

Dog Friendly, Private Pool, Close to the Beach + Free Attraction Tickets!

Looking to get away from it all, while being in the middle of it? Need a place that feels like home for kids, grandparents, couples, teenagers and doggies, too? Experience Leo’s Hideaway, a dog-friendly beach retreat in Laguna Beach, FL (Panama City Beach) with a Private pool (with option to heat), Screened porch and large, Fenced yard, with gulf and lake views.
 
This is truly a family retreat where you can be steps from the action, but also feel completely insulated with your own travel group. This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom beach cottage is very private. Leo’s Hideaway is tucked away at the end of a long palm tree-lined driveway. Relax on the large screened-in porch overlooking your private pool, fenced back yard and Lake Pierna. Listen to the waves as you have coffee in the morning or watching the sunset. There are also Gulf views from the porch!

Once inside the property, everyone will immediately find their own space and make themselves at home. It’s easy to settle in, with everything at your fingertips in this open floor plan. Choose between a king bedroom with a dedicated full bathroom, 2 queen bedrooms, or a cool hidden bunk room in the hallway with a set of twin-over-twin bunks! There is an additional full bathroom accessible to the other bedrooms.

Located on the quiet west end of Panama City Beach, FL in Laguna Beach, this beach cottage is proof that location means everything! 0.1 mile to the Gorgeous emerald waters and white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, 0.2 mile to Carousel Supermarket and 0.2 mile to Thomas’ Donuts!

The living area is equipped with comfortable loungers and sofa, along with a 55” Smart TV. The living area leads out to the screened-in porch, which has more comfortable furniture and a dining table for four. The fully-equipped kitchen, which is completely open to the living area, has an island with 4 bar stools, so the whole gang can hang out while preparing snacks for the beach or dinner for the family.  

Leo’s Hideaway is also just 3.8 miles to Pier Park, with lots of shopping, dining, and entertainment options, 4 miles to Publix or Winn-Dixie, and 7 miles to Rosemary Beach, FL. You can experience everything Scenic 30A has to offer for a Fraction of the cost of staying in Rosemary, Watercolor or Seaside. Plus, you can retreat to your quiet oasis after you have had your fill of the crowds. Enjoy 8 beach towels, 4 backpack beach chairs and 2 umbrellas, along with lots of privacy, making Leo's Hideaway your Perfect vacation experience! We look forward to welcoming you!

Excellent!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at Leo's Hideaway! We spent a lot of time in that amazing pool and our pups Buddy and Taffy loved the huge yard. The screened in porch was a great spot to get out of the sun for a bit and I even set up my laptop to get some work done out there. The house had everything we needed for a great week! Can't wait to stay there again!

Great location for a getaway!

This property was fantastic for our weekend getaway! The house was well equipped with most everything needed to cook meals and enjoy the weekend. The kids loved the pool! The house is located a short walk to the beach and is in a great neighborhood with a cute market and bakery/ice creamery down the street. We will definitely try to make it back here again!

Great little Hideaway in a great location

The house was perfectly located near the beach by about a 2 min walk from the beach. It is tucked back where you enjoy privacy with a great pool and fenced in backyard for our dog. A nice screened in porch good for eating or just relaxing. The house was very clean. This is a great little spot and we will be staying here again.

Laguna Beach Paradise

Perfect bests describes our stay so much we booked again for next year for an additional week. Hosts and staff were excellent in responding to all our questions promptly. Amenities, location, and housing was one of the overall better stays we’ve been to. Beach was in our sights and was less than a city block for easy access. We so hated to leave but we were blessed to have stayed. Thanks to the owners for a little slice of paradise.

Leo's Hideaway

Leo's Hideaway has everything that we wanted in a beach house! It was close to the beach and the Carousel Grocery Store. It was very comfortable and had a well equipped kitchen. The beds were great. The beach house was very quiet and had a great screened in porch to listen to the ocean and watch the beautiful sunsets. Our furbabies loved the fenced in yard. We would definitely rent Leo's Hideaway again. Thank you for making our stay wonderful!

Truly no words...

What an amazing house!!! My family and I decided we need a little getaway from all the craziness in the world. This house was absolutely perfect. The house is just a block from Front Beach Rd, yet felt so isolated and peaceful. And I can't say enough about the property manager Michael; I would email a question and in less that 5 min he had a response for me!! We will DEFINITELY be back!!

Leo’s vacation retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, newer pool, dog friendly and the right amount of space for us. Stayed for 3 weeks this spring as we did last year. Had a couple mechanical issues, no fault to management but they were quickly resolved. Cleaning could have been slightly better but we always do a once over when we arrive. Enjoy Leo’s and plan to stay again next year.

Perfect Spot

The house was even better than the pictures. It was spotless clean, the perfect size, and the back porch, pool, and fire pit were perfect for finishing out the day after the beach. The area is quiet and low-key. The beach is not crowded at all. The house had plenty of chairs, umbrellas, and beach wagon for easy walk to the beach. The grocery store around the corner had anything you might have forgotten. Plus donuts were around the other corner. Will definitely keep this one on our short list.

Great house FANTASTIC location!!!

This house is close to everything and yet you have tons of privacy. It is within walking distance to both the Carousel Market and Thomas’ Donuts. The beach is just across Front Beach Rd, and BONUS...you can see the ocean from the back deck! The view of the sunsets is exquisite! There are two wagons, lots of floats, and even a cooler on wheels! No need to pack these items 😃 The house was clean and spacious. Our grandson LOVED the bunk room! We will definitely be back!!! Thank you for a great vacation!
