Peaceful Yard, Private Pool, 5 Min Walk to Beach!
Welcome to Caught By A Wave 30A!
Unwind at our private luxury beach cottage located in Seacrest West - just .25 miles from the Seacrest beach access (requires stairs). The quiet neighborhood makes you feel like you're away from the crowds yet only 1.2 miles west of Alys Beach and 2 miles west of Rosemary Beach.
The home features a serene backyard with private heated pool, cozy fire pit, and outdoor grill - all of which can be seen from the large back porch. Caught By A Wave is perfect for families, couples, and girls trips!
When not relaxing at the beach or pool, ride the four Beach Cruisers and bike trailer over to The Big Chill (formerly The Hub) to check out their latest events - live music, family movie night, or the big game. If that's not your scene, head East to Raw and Juicy for smoothies, live music, and playground time or keep pedaling to Rosemary for some shopping!
There is plenty of space for the entire family to spread out. In the morning, sip coffee from the swings located on the bedroom balconies. Spend the afternoon unwinding by sipping wine by the firepit or keeping the grill master company in the pergola while also watching the pool.
The bunk room is located separately on the third floor, making it perfect for children and teens to watch their own TV shows, play games, or have private space. Each bunk has its own outlet and USB port.

Book here if you never want to leave!!
I cannot express enough how much I loved staying here! The house exceeded all expectations, it is absolutely beautiful & the pool/backyard/deck is a perfect size. I went there for my bachelorette trip, mostly looking for a place that was peaceful and close to the beach. This had all of that and more! The beach is an easy 5 minute walk and the house provided plenty of beach chairs for all us girls (the beach chairs even recline, they are awesome!) The beach access point was so cute & it was easy to find a place on the beach since it was mostly a residential access spot. I canceled plans a few times because I just didn’t want to leave the house, there was so much to do there! My biggest regret is not staying longer. I was internally kicking and screaming I didn’t want to leave! And Christine & Nick were super quick to answer any questions I had upon booking and through our entire stay. I definitely will be booking here again! And if you’re on the fence, just book it. It was hard to imagine it being prettier than the photos but it is. This place is amazing.

Spring Break 2023
We had a lovely stay! The house is beautiful and is in a very quiet location, yet a close walk to the beach and path. The house is perfectly set-up for families traveling with children. The hosts are super responsive and provide great recommendations. The heated pool was such a treat on cooler days. We had a wonderful stay!
