Kidd Carriage House – Stylish Beachside Retreat Near Pool & Gulf Access
Perfect for couples or small groups, Kidd Carriage House is a flawless flat with a luxurious, beachy flair. Located behind Kidd Cottage and near the Cabana swimming pool and downtown Rosemary Beach, this posh apartment home also keeps you close to the sparkling white sandy beaches. With a king-size bed and a sleeper sofa in the living area, there’s room for four at Kidd Carriage House.
The main level of Kidd Carriage House is located one flight up. Take the cobblestone path and lighted stairway up to the second level, where the front door opens into the bright and elegant GREAT ROOM. The LIVING AREA boasts a serene and calming blue and white palate, with a slip-covered sleeper sofa, two armchairs, a tufted ottoman/coffee table, and a large HDTV. The vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams add a lovely feeling of spaciousness to this adorable space.
Next to the living area is a FULL KITCHEN, with a central island that has seating for four— ideal for dining in or creating an impromptu workspace. Also on the island is a convenient under-counter refrigerator and a separate deep freezer in the garage, so there’s plenty of cold storage space. The full kitchen also includes a dishwasher, a gas range, and a deep, modern farmhouse sink. Over the island are three gorgeous pendant lights that perfectly illuminate the space.
In the plush GUEST BEDROOM, a queen-size bed is flanked by two convenient closet spaces. This private oasis is ideal for recharging after a day filled with beachy adventures and also houses a large HDTV for a lazy Netflix binge from bed. In the FULL BATHROOM, you’ll find a spa-like tiled shower with a glass door and a roomy marble-topped vanity. There’s also a full-size stacked washer and dryer.
Tucked within the picturesque coastal community of Inlet Beach, you’ll love the central location that keeps you close to everything. When you’re in the mood to catch some sun by the pool, the gorgeous Rosemary Beach community swimming pool is right around the corner. And when it’s time to sink your toes into the sand, the beach access points are a short walk or bike ride from your door.

This was the perfect place to stay for a beach getaway! It was just perfect for the two of us! We walked everywhere; the beach, downtown for dinner, and some shopping, it was amazing!
We stayed for an anniversary weekend with our 2 year old and it was a blast! The bicycles that were included was really nice to have. The area was quiet and it was a plus being within steps from a pool! Definitely will stay again!
We always enjoy our time in Rosemary Beach. This property was very nice and perfect for 2. The location is great as well. The property managers were very helpful and quick to respond to questions while we were there.
We picked Kidd Carriage House for the location, amenities and design and it exceeded every expectation. Our week long stay provided exactly what we wanted from this trip - we parked our vehicle upon arrival, rode bikes and walked

We had such a wonderful stay at this property! The home was beautiful, gorgeously decorated, and in a perfect location. It felt inviting and pretty tidy overall, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the trip.One small suggestion would be to add a full-length mirror and perhaps improve the bathroom lighting, as both would make getting ready a bit easier.That said, those are minor details compared to how lovely the space was. Overall, it’s a gorgeous rental, thoughtfully designed, and I would absolutely stay here again.

Thank you for your feedback! We're delighted you had a great stay at Kidd Carriage House and that our team was able to assist you promptly. It’s wonderful to hear the location worked well for you, offering both convenience and a peaceful setting. We’d love to welcome you back again!
The accommodations were at first sight lovely except for a raised step platform we had to climb up and down (3 steps each way) to use the bathroom and bedroom. ??? We are an older couple and would have appreciated a heads up on this. The fridge and freeze were 1/2 size which was challenging at times.We lost hot water. The management responded wonderfully to this and it was restored by a plumber later in the day.The fridge door did not close/open easily (wooden frame in the way) nor did the doors to the washer and dryer.Areas needed updating… particularly around the bathroom and kitchen faucets/countertops. Evidence of a lot of ware and tear. Veneer coming off the bedroom dresser and drawers were hard to open.No Kleenex, no salt and pepper, no foodstuff amenities like small amount of oil, sugar, pods for the kureig. These are inexpensive offerings.We came from a stay in St Augustine where we had a 1bedroom with amazing attention to detail. Very generous on all counts at half the price. I realize we paid for the Rosemary Beach location and should cost more. It was a beautiful area.

We come to Rosemary every year and have never stayed in the same spot twice, the Kidd Carriage house just might be the one we’ve been looking for!! Absolutely amazing location, space, and quality. Our stay from beginning to end was great! We absolutely adored this little house and have already looked into next years dates. Perfect for a couple looking to getaway. We rode the provided bikes every single day, used the chairs for sunset, and fully enjoyed the space.

Perfect location near beautiful pool and easy stroll to shops and restaurants. The beach is also within a short walk. The home is well maintained and furnished with all the necessities. The only recommendation I would have is to replace the coffee maker with a Keurig. Many of the other property's in Rosemary have Keurigs. The Cuisinart coffee maker provided produced coffee with grounds in it. Even though the temperature was 100 plus the cottage remained cool.

We loved our stay at Kidd Carriage. The location was perfectly situated in the heart of Rosemary, an easy walk to the beach, coffee shops, and restaurants everyday. We chose this place specifically because we did not rent a car for the week and wanted to be able to walk/bike to our destinations. The apartment itself was clean and well decorated, but could do with a couple upgrades to make it even better: keep salt + pepper on hand, replace the mattress as it’s starting to wear down (note- this is a queen. The listing says king which is not accurate). Those little things aside, we loved our stay!

Thank you, Mary! We appreciate your five-star review and your helpful comments. We hope you can return!
We loved our stay and it was just right for mom and son trip we were on. Great location, and everything was comfortable. Nice being able to park my car in the garage. Loved having use of bikes and gear also. It’s a really lovely place with everything you need. I didn’t use the kitchen much but it’s fully stocked and don’t let the small fridge scare you off. It’s the perfect size for vacationing.
Just a note. The main house slamming door is really loud. Maybe a note can be added to that door to garage area so the occupants in main house know? Housekeeping overlooked washing the pull out bed cover I think, and I couldn’t find sheets for the pull out, but we made due with blankets and I washed the cover.
Thanks for the lovely stay!

Reviewer Comments:
Our stay was good. The carriage house was nice, however its need some attention. The coffee maker leaks water, the dishwasher needs to be fixed and the zero entry shower floods the bathroom. There were only two bowls and a small amount of coffee mugs. I found myself cleaning up and hand washing more each meal. There also needs to be better communication about parking, mention to guests that they need to walk inside the garage to open the garage door instead of using a code. And a note regarding how to work the TV would be nice too, we had to have the maintenance guy on the 3rd day show us. This is important for families with small children. The carriage house beds were vert comfortable and the location is great, it just needs a little TLC to make guests’ stay more enjoyable and less of a hassle.

Reviewer Comments:
Vacation rental was clean and cozy and within walking distance to shops, food, and the beach. All was within a 5-10 minute walk. The pool was just around the corner about a 3 minute walk. The property had everything we needed from linens, coffee, pots and pans, and dishes. It also has a small refrigerator and freezer which are separate from each other. There is a connecting house that has a pool (not for use with this rental) but it was not used during our stay. The pool is right outside the living room window so I could see it being an issue if there were guests there at night but it was not used while we were there. The rental also had cable television and wi-fi. Both worked great for us. There is also a washer and dryer in the rental and washing pods were provided. My only complaint is the bed which was not comfortable for my husband and I. Everyone is different though, so our experience with the bed will not be the same for everyone. Communication was great with the property manager as well, they were just a text away. Overall a great stay for the price and would stay again.
