About this property

1-min walk to quiet beach, renovated, 2 kitchens!

  • Wake up less than a one-minute walk from one of the calmest stretches of sand in the Destin area. The Salty Seahorse is a freshly renovated Miramar Beach townhouse whose neighborhood beach access is shared only with this residential community and one condominium complex. With no public parking at the access point, the sand stays quiet even in peak season, and guests consistently tell us the walk feels even shorter than the map suggests.

    You are tucked into a relaxed Miramar Beach neighborhood while staying close to the Emerald Coast's favorite destinations: approximately 2 miles from Sandestin, 6 miles from Destin, and 7 miles from the communities along Scenic Highway 30A.

    DESIGNED FOR FAMILIES AND GROUPS
    The Salty Seahorse sleeps up to 12 across 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and a queen sleeper sofa. Two separate living levels and two kitchens give larger groups room to gather for meals and movie nights while still finding quiet corners apart. The step-free lower level has 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a living area, and its own kitchen with a standard electric stove, which many guests choose so grandparents or little ones can skip the stairs. The upper level holds the remaining bedrooms and baths, the main gathering spaces, and a full kitchen with an induction cooktop (induction-ready cookware is provided and stays upstairs).

    SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

    • Bedroom 2: California king
    • Bedroom 3: Two queens
    • Bedroom 4: California king
    • Common area: Queen sleeper sofa

    BEACH GEAR AND PADDLEBOARDS
    Beach days are easier with the provided chairs, umbrellas, wagons, and beach toys, and you may also find extra gear left by previous guests. Two paddleboards are included; the access code is shared once the required waiver is on file.

    WHY GUESTS COME BACK
    Families of nine and larger tell us the same things again and again: the beach really is that close, the kitchens have the cookware and counter space to feed a full house, and there is room for everyone to spread out without anyone feeling crowded. Miramar Beach offers more than one kind of coastal day. The Dolphin Reef near Miramar Beach Regional Beach Access is a favorite snorkeling spot for experienced swimmers who bring or rent their own gear, when Gulf conditions are suitable. Destin Commons adds movies, public art, shopping, and family activities, while The Village of Baytowne Wharf offers boutiques, galleries, outdoor festivals, and scheduled entertainment. Each is within easy driving reach, so the group can mix beach time with an outing without changing home base.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ July 2026 | Group trip
    We loved our stay! Easy walk to the beach and shopping, great layout, and we used the kitchen and grill a lot.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ May 2026 | Stayed with kids
    Steps to the beach was an awesome experience. The distance to the beach was just as described. My whole family was just as impressed as I was about the house and location. We will definitely book again in the future.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ April 2026 | Stayed with Kids
    “This home is in a fabulous location, so close to the beach, a 2-minute walk. The beach is pristine. The kitchen was well stocked and the wagon, chairs, and beach toys were great. Parker was quick to respond and the owner also called to help with some needed supplies. This is a large house with indoor and outdoor space. Our family of 9 was very comfortable. We enjoyed the fire pit table, grill, and balcony.”

    A FEW PRACTICAL NOTES
    Up to 4 vehicles fit on the property, including the garage. Oversized vehicles, boats, trailers, and jet skis need written approval before arrival so we can plan parking with you. Quiet hours run 10 PM to 8 AM in this close-knit neighborhood. A doorbell camera monitors the exterior entry area only. Cancellation terms follow the policy attached to your reservation, and we recommend travel insurance for every trip.

    ABOUT YOUR HOSTS

    The Salty Seahorse is part of Peacock Paradise Vacations, a family-run collection of homes my husband, Oz, and I personally love and care for. We want each stay to feel easy, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared, so you can spend less time managing vacation logistics and more time with your toes in Miramar Beach sand.

Great Location!!!

The beach is a short walk away. The house is exactly as listed. The decor is beautiful. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to enjoy the outdoor area but it was really nice. Everyone bragged about how comfortable the beds were. We will definitely be back.

Family vacation

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. This property was beautiful and exceptionally clean. It looks exactly like the photos, even better in person! It was stocked with plenty of toiletries and also with everything that we needed and more to prepare meals. We loved that we could walk to the beach, it was that close! The beach chairs and umbrellas that were provided was an added bonus for enjoyable days at the beach.This property is also very close to a shopping outlet and grocery store. The property manager (Host) was gracious. I would definitely stay here again.

The house worked perfectly with multiple family members staying together. The two kitchen areas worked great. There was plenty of seating in the main family room and the kitchen was nicely stocked. The main dining table had adequate seating for our large family and had a high chair that was an added bonus.

Good time with good friends

Our trip was to celebrate my graduation from college with some of my close friends. The house was absolutely beautiful & accommodated all 8 of us. The house is just a short walk to the beach, and in a family friendly neighborhood. We all have said it was the best trip we’ve had in a LONG time! We will forsure have to have another reunion again!

Absolute Paradise

My family and I were in paradise! The home was everything a family of seven could dream of. The floor plan was perfect. The Destin beach is breathtaking and the location of the home is perfect at the end of the street so no traffic. Perfectly well thought out with all the amenities you would ever need in this exceptional home. Thank you for making this awesome property a paradise away from home for our family. The hosts are sensational. We did not want to leave and will definitely book in the future.
