Wonderfully appointed kitchen, very comfortable living rooms, extremely comfortable bedrooms.The porches were great and we watched entire pods of dolphins! The property was quiet even though it was on the main road.The pool was the perfect size and there were not too many stairs to the beach. There was an alarm system at the doors to the pool for child safety.

Gritz Carlton

We had another great stay at Gritz Carlton! Our family loves this home in Santa Rosa so much. The pool and private beach access is really what makes it the ultimate vacation - we rarely leave the house once we arrive! It is convenient to walk to local restaurants. Beds are comfortable as well. We have already booked for 2026!

The house was perfect for our family of 14. The location was excellent. The view was amazing. The large balcony on the 2nd floor was so pretty - to watch sunrise and the sunsets. The private beach was spectacular. The pool was great as well.

Perfect family spot!

Gritz Carlton is the perfect place for your next multi-generational family trip! The pool and porch areas are setup so conveniently to supervise kid activities while relaxing. The beach access is ideal and you are minutes away from several restaurants and shops with a nice walking sidewalk path. We have already rebooked for next year!

Incredible property!

My family LOVED this property for our Spring Break getaway. We were close enough to everything to do what we wanted to do but far enough away to not be overcome with the crowd. The house was incredible and had everything we needed. It was stocked well and the accessories were top of the line. The heated pool was a blessing as the weather was cool and very windy. I would give this a 10/10 for an awesome beach vacation with family.

Best house on the beach!

Our 8th year at Gritz Carlton. Everything you could want/need right there. House perfect for family. Beach access and location ideal. Pool a wonderful bonus. If you can pry yourself away from this perfect relaxing beach and beach home experience, great restaurants, shops, golf and deep sea fishing opportunities are oh so near by!

Wonderful beach location, pool, expansive decks - we were wanting for nothing. Had a full house and it was very comfortable. Really felt like home. Kitchen is very easy to cook in and entertain. The hosts are wonderful people and great to work with. We love coming here and are grateful that the hosts open their home for the opportunity for us to stay here.

Family New Year's vacation

The GritzCarlton is great, exactly as shown & described on the website. The location is close to grocery stores and restaurants. The pool and beach are wonderful. Becuase the house faces south, it was surprisingly comfortable on the pool deck and beach even in the low 60s. The only issue we had was with the pool heater, which stopped working a couple of times, but the manager got service on it right away and they refunded the our payment for the pool heat. The management gets an A in my book.

Epic holiday experience

We had a marvelous stay on 30A in this great house with all the amenities you could want. We were a family group with my older parents (70s-80s), my adult kids and their partners and my husband and I. We had a wonderful time. This house --in addition to all the amazing amenities at the property and the beach--was proximate to restaurants, the bike path and lots of fun shopping.

Amazing family vacation

We’ve been coming to the gulf coast since 2012 and this was by far the best accommodations we’ve EVER had. There were 7 adults and two children and we had plenty of space to hang out together or have our own separate places to relax. The distance between the pool and beach made it super easy to go between both water sources. The host was super easy to communicate with and gave personal recommendations about local restaurants and activities. I highly recommend the Gritzcarlton. We loved it so much that we’ve already booked for the same week next year.
