Watercolor-Mexico Beach! Gulf-Side Home!
Welcome to Watercolor-Mexico Beach! Escape to this custom-designed coastal retreat, where modern luxury meets the Gulf's natural beauty. This newly built home is situated on a first-tier lot in the white sands of Mexico Beach, offering a private pool that can be optionally heated. With gulf views from many rooms and a location on the premier stretch of shoreline, Watercolor offers both tranquility and convenience. Enjoy beach access right out the front door, pool access through the back, and a short stroll to the Marina, restaurants, and local commerce.
The property has 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 3 decks. The first floor includes an open concept design and access to front and back decks with stunning gulf views. Also on this level is a bedroom with a queen size bed and a full bathroom directly across the hallway. Upstairs, on the top level, there are additional 3 bedrooms. The first is an oversized master with a king size bed, office desk and expansive gulf views; the master also has a private deck overlooking the Gulf and a generous full master bathroom. The second room on this level includes a queen size bed, while the third has a bunk-room with 2 twin-over-twin bunk-beds - the latter two rooms share a full bathroom.
Watercolor comes equipped with the cooking and living essentials you'll need to enjoy your beach retreat, including dishware, cookware, washer/dryer, coffee maker, a Weber gas grill, a Weber charcoal BBQ grill, WIFI, smart TVs in each room, beach gear, among others. Located in a family-friendly beach community, Watercolor is perfect for relaxing getaways. Please be conscious of the relatively quiet and family atmosphere—loud music, parties, or events are not permitted. This is, generally, a Saturday-to-Saturday rental during peak season (June & July); 3-night minimum the remainder of the year. Outside of summer, longer-term rentals considered on a case-by-case basis.

“This house is a fantastic value, as it's practically beachfront without an actual beachfront pricetag…You can be on the beach in seconds, so it's easy to pop back and forth.”
“The gulf views were breathtaking, and having the beach just steps away made it so convenient. Great to have a newly added pool, two grills, and a beautifully designed house with plenty of space and everything we needed.”
“We had an amazing time at this beautiful beach house. Very clean, well-equipped for cooking, great beach toys, comfortable beds, blackout shades, and excellent water pressure—never ran out of hot water. Beautiful sunsets and a 5-star experience. We'll definitely be going back!”

Our annual family vacation. Everything was great - house, pool, location. Views from balconies were amazing. Kitchen made cooking for our large group a breeze. Loved the big dining table where we could all sit down together. We all 100% would recommend the property.

Loved the house. Need to add more furniture for sitting in the Living Room and decor. Wish it had an elevator but understand the cost of that also.
