Welcome to After Dune Delight, a serene slice of paradise tucked within the private, gated enclave of Calypso Pointe in Santa Rosa Beach. Just a short walk to the powder-soft sands of the Gulf and only steps from the sparkling community pool, this pet-friendly haven is the ideal retreat for families, friends, and their four-legged companions.
From the moment you arrive, this beautifully styled four-bedroom home invites you to relax and reconnect. Nestled among palm-lined streets and just off scenic Highway 30A, the home is perfectly positioned for easy access to local shopping, dining, and the laid-back charm that defines the Emerald Coast.
The first floor of the home features two elegant king bedrooms. The master suite boasts an en suite bath and opens to a private screened porch, perfect for quiet mornings or unwinding after a day at the beach. A custom bunk room, designed with younger guests in mind, shares a full bathroom with the second king suite. A conveniently located laundry room makes extended stays feel effortless.
Upstairs, the heart of the home comes alive in a sun-drenched living space with vaulted ceilings and coastal-inspired décor. The kitchen is a true standout, showcasing unique copper countertops and a professional-grade French stove—ideal for creating memorable meals with fresh Gulf ingredients. The adjacent dining area is spacious and welcoming, flowing seamlessly into a cozy living room where you can gather for games, stories, or relaxed movie nights.
Also on the second level is a charming queen bedroom and a stylish half-bath. Step outside to the front screened balcony, where a swing bed and dining area invite you to linger a little longer. A second porch with hanging chairs leads to the home’s crown jewel—a rooftop Crow’s Nest deck offering peaceful Gulf views, perfect for sunrise coffee or sunset sangria.
This home comes complete with thoughtful touches that elevate every moment, from both charcoal and propane grills for family cookouts, to multiple screened porches that create quiet nooks for reading or conversation.
After Dune Delight isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to savor.

Reviewer Comments:
The property was very clean. Three bedrooms with a bonus room with double bunk beds...enough room for 10 people. a screened in area with a swing and a bed swing. Living room was spacious with a big TV and games. Community is very pet friendly with bags and waste baskets at two grassy locations. The community pool is right across the street and well maintained. The beach is a short 8 minute walk. A gas station & convenience store is right around the corner. Restaurants are just a short walk/drive. We did have a couple issues upon arrival, but the dedicated staff and maintenance team took care of everything within 24 hours. NOTE: Refrigerator needs to be replaced. Overall, we had a great time and would stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was great for our multi family vacation. It was clean and very spacious. There were a couple concerns with the house— the back yard was overgrown, so we couldn’t enjoy the charcoal grill and the house has a gas leak smell inside and outside after cooking at times. Also, the picture on the listing suggests that there is beach access within walking distance of the house. The access that is within walking distance is considered “private” access and does not allow you to set up in this space. The public beach access is almost a mile from the house location, which is misleading in the details of this house. When we booked this house we were told that we would have accessible beach access with the property that was in walking distance, but that was not the case. These points were escalated to My Vacation Haven, but I have not gotten a response as of yet.

Reviewer Comments:
We were called 1 hour prior to arrival time to be notified that there was a gas leak and the oven wasn’t operating. The stove was a specialty stove and one of the knobs was broken. They stated they would provide a grill and electric cooktop. Based on the amount of hot plates and electric cooker at the unit, it seems like this had been an ongoing problem, and not just occurred that morning. We were also not allowed in the house until 1.5 hours after the scheduled check in time. When we arrived there was blood on the floors in the dining room and on stairs. Obviously they ha dent mopped. Also, the back door was broken and wouldn’t lock or shut. We had to prop something behind it to keep it closed. We couldn’t even be ensured our safety with the door not closing or locking. We notified the company and nothing was done. They said they would have someone out that first business day for the stove, but no one came the entire week.
