About this property

Dogs OK~Community Pool~Short Walk to Beach~Grill

  • About this space

    Welcome to 61 Charming Way, a spacious 3-story coastal retreat tucked into the quiet Dune Allen community on the west end of scenic 30A.



    ✔ Unbeatable location, about a quarter-mile stroll to the Dune Allen Regional Beach access and directly behind local-favorite Stinky's Fish Camp

    ✔ Community pool just three houses down, shared only with our small neighborhood

    ✔ Four bedrooms across two upper floors, sleeping up to 12

    ✔ Bright, open main level with a large U-shaped sectional, a 65" smart TV, and dining for eight

    ✔ Fully stocked kitchen with a gas range, Keurig K-Duo coffee, and everything you need for a week at the beach

    ✔ Back deck with a gas grill and an outdoor shower to rinse off after the sand



    Main level: Step up into an open living, dining, and kitchen space made for gathering. Cook a big meal in the well-equipped kitchen, gather around the table for eight, and unwind on the oversized sectional. A half bath and a full-size washer and dryer are right on this floor.



    Second floor: Three bedrooms and two baths. The king bedroom has its own updated en-suite with a walk-in tile shower, a 42" TV, and a shared walkout balcony. The bunk room is a kid favorite, with a pyramid bunk (double on the bottom, twin on top) plus a twin trundle. A queen bedroom shares a full bath with a dual-sink vanity and a shower and tub combo. A landing desk makes a handy workspace.



    Third-floor master suite: Your private getaway at the top of the home, with a king bed, a twin trundle daybed, a desk, and a 65" smart TV. The spa-style en-suite has a freestanding soaking tub, a dual-head walk-in shower with a rainfall head, a dual-sink vanity, and a large walk-in closet.



    Beach gear is included, with a beach wagon, chairs, and assorted gear ready by the front steps so you can head straight to the Gulf.



    With tall 10 to 11-foot ceilings, thoughtful updates throughout, and a location you can walk to the beach from, 61 Charming Way is your easygoing home base on 30A.

Amazing house and close to the beach with plenty of room to accommodate a big family. We had no troubles with the place at all the only thing is that my grandma had a hard time with all of the stairs but other than that it was great!

All 10 of us had a wonderful time. The host was available anytime we needed them. The house was spotless. We all had plenty of room. It was a short walk to the beach and a short drive to Walmart and outlet stores. The pool was close by. We would definitely stay again. It really was 10/10.

Family get away

This was our 2nd time back to Santa Rosa beach (last was 2021). It was a great return, minus the green algae in the ocean. I had no idea occurred during May/June. Luckily by our 4th day it had pretty much started to clear so we could see the pretty water. The area is close to all the other beaches along 30A from Santa Rosa to Seaside was about a 30-minute drive but worth doing to see all the pretty sites. The house was great. Definitely on the hill as mentioned and parking is tight also; we had 3 SUV's and was a close fit for 3 vehicles. We let our 75-year-old park closest to the stairs so getting up the hill wasn't as big of a challenge. The house is very nice, and we had no issue with space. Brian is awesome with communicating. Overall, our family had a great time, and we had teens to adults staying. Would return!

Big beautiful house, walk to the beach!

We shared our vacation with extended family. This house had enough bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone to be comfortable and have the privacy they wanted. It’s a very new, clean, beautiful home with great common spaces and everything you need - extra towels, full size washer/dryer, outdoor shower, boogie boards/beach chairs/wagon, and an oscillating fan for the only bedroom without a ceiling fan. Good water pressure in the showers. Comfortable mattresses and pillows! It takes about 8 minutes to walk to the beach, so we didn’t have to deal with beach parking at all. We also walked to Stinky’s restaurant which is only a 6 minute walk. The owners were very thorough with information ahead of arrival, and were quick to respond when I had a question. My only “heads up” would be that the driveway is steep and there are lots of stairs. Something to consider if you have babies/toddlers or anyone who struggles with stairs. We were ages 5-65 and we did just fine! We would absolutely stay here again!

As Advertised

Was somewhat skeptical with over 20 reviews, all positive and 5 star—but it’s earned. Great space. Everything needed for a great stay. Neighborhood great. Very easy checkin and checkout. Great communication. Driveway incline is steeper than expected, could be an issue for those with mobility challenges. But fine otherwise. The beach is the main attraction so I was curious about how beach access would go given the public/private issue. Beach access is an easy walk. No issues there. Beach is definitely crowded, but didn’t take away from the experience. We still had a great time. Everyone was cool. If you want to show up at 10 and set up for the day, expect to be in the very back of crowded beach. Serious beach goers were set up on the water by 7-8. Most set up and leave (which I get, but is also not cool at the same time). If you want to spread out, there is a state park 2 miles away (free at the moment). You can park and take a tram to a large public beach. We were there during peak summer season and it was fine.

Quick getaway, wish we could have stayed longer

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Vitoria for our long weekend getaway to the beautiful Emerald Coast beaches on 30A. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. It was as advertised and very close to the beach access - a 5 minute walk. The open concept layout was very cozy. Comfortable beds, great internet and really appreciated all Brian & Diana (the hosts and owners) did prior to and during our stay to make sure we were happy. We look forward to staying at Casa Vitoria again very soon!

We just returned from our stay over Thanksgiving break. This was our first Thanksgiving away from home. We had a wonderful time. The house was amazing and big enough to accommodate all 7 of us comfortably. The house was clean and the kitchen very well equipped. The hosts were extremely friendly, helpful and professional.
