About this property

Gulf Front... Casa De Sounion... Private Beach Paradise pet friendly ‘

Gorgeous beach home has terrazzo floors with Oriental rugs and tasteful furniture that fill the living and sleeping areas. Bedrooms feature queen-size beds.

The large, glassed-in solarium (porch) of Villa Sounion serves as the third bedroom and overlooks the beach with fabulous views of the emerald water, dolphins, and exquisite gulf sunsets. Set on a bluff, wood decking and steps take you down to the gulf and crystal white sands. Fishing from the shores will ensure your dinner, and crabbing at dusk is an added bonus.
PLEASE NOTE: there is a four night minimum mid March through September and a four night minimum October through December.
Enjoy panoramic views of the emerald gulf in your private tropical home where you do not have to share walls with strangers. This home comes complete with your own private driveway and private parking. It is a quaint, older retro style stucco beach house that has been in our family for several generations and is reminiscent of past family beach holidays.
For those who golf, Panama City beach area has been chosen as the third best 'golf destination' in the nation
There is an option to split payments if necessary.

Perfect location right on 30A. Accessible to Alys, Rosemary, and Watersound but nice and secluded to not be in the middle of those either. Place is a wonderful throwback to old 30A/ gulf coast beach houses. Wonderful ocean view and steps away to your own beach. Host was wonderful and very communicative if needed.

Peaceful beach house

We loved staying in this private, peaceful oasis. So much better than a typical condo, the house has authenticity and history and a beautiful view.

We are so glad that these appreciative guests enjoyed our family Beach House. My parents built it in 1970 as a getaway with the unique architectural design of that period, and we have kept it pretty much the same except for periodical improvements.

Another great family vacation on 30A! Excellent location and very private. The sunroom isn’t air conditioned so we didn’t use it much because of the heat but the house has a lot of old classic charm. Owner and groundskeeper were very helpful and responsive. We enjoyed our trip and didn’t want to leave!
