Drift Bay: Zoo, Boat Ramp, Foosball and Beach
Summary:
Drift Bay is a newly built townhouse, perfect for a relaxing beach getaway near a convenient boat ramp. Enjoy easy access to Woodlawn Beach, the Zoo, Off-site boat parking, and The Eatery—all just 1 mile away! We’ve thoughtfully stocked the home with cooking essentials, towels, and toiletries for your convenience. Stream your favorite shows with high-speed Wi-Fi GBPS 550 on our smart TVs, or enjoy family fun with foosball and games for the kids. With stunning beaches, Crab Island, waterparks, and more nearby, your perfect vacation awaits. Book with Ronin Stays—we won’t disappoint!
The Space:
Check out this spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. All rooms are located on the 2nd floor along with the full bathrooms. For convenience, a half bathroom is right off the kitchen and living space. Washer and dryer are available for use with no additional fee.
Guest Access:
Ronin Stays uses SuiteOp for guest access. Before arrival, guests will receive a link through their booking channel and/or email to complete a quick pre-check-in. Through that same link, you’ll find everything you need for your stay — including check-in instructions, Wi-Fi details, local recommendations, and more. Once check-in begins, the SuiteOp app provides instant access to the property within seconds. In the rare event of any issues, a backup lockbox with a physical key is available on-site.
The Neighborhood:
Located on a quiet street with little to no traffic. The street does a loop coming in and out of the adjoining road.
Just blocks from Highway 98, you have a quick commute in either direction to beaches, dining and shopping. The Gulf Breeze Zoo is a must see and a community boat ramp is less than half a mile away!
Getting Around:
Getting around Gulf Breeze is simple and convenient, especially with a car. While public transportation is limited, driving offers the most flexibility for exploring the area and nearby attractions. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and provide an easy way to reach places like Pensacola Beach, the Gulf Islands National Seashore, and the local shops and eateries scattered throughout the community. Biking is also a great option for shorter trips—Gulf Breeze is known for its scenic roads and coastal trails. For the most comfortable and stress-free experience, especially if you’re planning day trips or beach outings, having a personal vehicle or rental car is highly recommended.
Other Things to Note:
All booking guests must submit a photo of their ID for verification, complete and sign the Ronin Stays Rental Agreement, fill out the check-in form, and choose either the damage waiver protection plan ($45) or a security deposit ($250) before receiving check-in instructions. Once these steps are completed, your personal check-in code will be sent one hour before your scheduled check-in time. To avoid any delays, please ensure these requirements are taken care of in advance.
We’re happy to welcome your furry companions—all breeds, shapes, and sizes are accepted, with a maximum of 2 pets per reservation. This fee covers your entire stay and includes basic pet cleaning. All pets must be house trained, non-aggressive, and up to date on vaccinations. Please note that the pet fee covers standard cleaning; any excessive cleaning—such as indoor accidents, excessive pet hair on furniture, or damage—will result in additional charges. Our standard one-time pet fee is:
- $85 for up to 2 pets
For your safety, this property has 2 exterior security cameras located at:
- At the Front Door
- In the Backyard
There are no cameras inside the house. These cameras are installed solely to help protect our guests and the property.
Please note: The nightly rate includes up to 6 guests. For groups larger than 6 (up to a maximum of 8 guests), there is an additional charge of $25 per guest, per night. This helps cover the extra utilities, cleaning, and general wear and tear. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us keep Drift Bay in great shape for everyone!

If you booked through our website, email is the best way to reach us. Our team actively monitors messages around the clock to ensure timely support.

Breath of fresh air
This was our annual family beach trip to celebrate the youngest who should have turned 25 this year. We were pleasantly surprised. The home is stunning and had all the essentials. We were close to both Navarre beach and Pensacola beach. They were ready to host our pups as well. I must say this is one of the best rental experiences yet! The communication with the host was on point! Thanks again Ronin we will be back. Best

Wedding Venue Stay
We booked this trip with VRBO to visit/review a wedding venue for my daughter's wedding in 2026! This property was our 3rd VRBO stay. This was the best property visit! It was extremely clean and very up to date! Check in/check out was a breeze. Very short drive to Pensacola beach!we will definitely consider when we have another visit to this area.
Very clean and well appointed. Our communication was quick and all of our expectations were met. We will be back!
