Family retreat on the Bay near 30a at Casa de Bahia
Come and enjoy a beautifully remodeled home nestled among 300 year oak trees right on the bayou at the opening of the Choctawatchee Bay. You can fish, paddle board or boat right off the dock. This is family friendly home with lots of space for kids to run around, privacy for your family and a large drive way to park all your cars and even an RV if needed. (Inquire about hook ups.)
Wake up to the view of the water from the master bedroom. Then take a relaxing bath in the jetted tub or rejuvenating shower in the brand new enclosed dual head master shower. Finish up the perfect morning by enjoying your coffee or glass of Champagne sitting at the floor to ceiling windows to see the most beautiful view of the bayou. Enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner at the farmhouse table that sits beside the most beautiful Gastby inspired bar with breathtaking views of the bayou from floor to ceiling windows and sliders. If you love to cook, you'll love the gas burning Kitchenaid stove top and double convection oven with warming drawer, perfect for a large family dinner. The large island is perfect for a quick breakfast, appetizers or serving station for dinner. The farm house sink and new Samsung dishwasher will make clean up a breeze. If eating out is more your style, we are 5 minutes from North Beach Social and the Bay by car or 20 minutes by boat. If you launch your boat around the corner you can keep it at the dock your entire stay, no messing with launching every single day.
We are a quick drive down to the turquoise beaches, shopping and restaurants of 30a and just 30 minutes from the fun in Destin or Panama City Beach. You're able to enjoy the vacation amenities without the hustle of staying by the big city beaches. There is so much to do within a short drive if you're looking for activities. If fishing and relaxing is more your style you can just stay at the property and fish right off the dock, enjoy a glass of wine at sunset and take a walk along the Bay. Whatever you decide to do, when you stay at Casa De Bahia a memorable and serene experience.
At Casa de Bahia we pride ourselves on low toxic living. We do not use any artificial scents, cleaning agents or detergents. You won't walk in and smell the scent of a Glade plug in or Downy dryer sheets. You can trust that we are using safe low toxic and non toxic cleaners that still do the job so rest assured that your stay is safe, clean and nontoxic.
You are also able to use our free weights and peloton as part of the stay at Casa de Bahia because a healthy lifestyle does not stop when you're on vacation.

Great place!
Overall great place to stay. House accommodated our large family well. Nice back yard for kids to play. Boat dock was very convenient. Would rent again if returning to the same area!
