About this property

Santa Rosina, a Beachfront Cottage and legacy of Old Florida!

This family oriented cottage is located on the beautiful beaches of the Gulf. A step out the porch door puts you on your way to a day of sun, fun, and the clearest waters ever. The glass enclosed sleeping porch sleeps four and is perfect for the children of the family.

This is truly a beachfront cottage. Two flights of stairs, shown in the photos end at the beach - which is perfect for beach combing and long walks!

Our cottage is available for rental Spring through Fall (March 15 - November 15).

A legacy from Old Florida, the property is close to Carillon Beach and Inlet Beach. It is a relaxing location, but near to many area attractions for those who like a more active pace. Even though you're at the quiet end of Panama City Beach you're still close to many restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, biking, hiking, not to mention all the water fun on the gulf. To the west you're only a short drive to Scenic 30-A, home to many upscale shops and restaurants. Going east takes you to the fun spots of Panama City Beach including Pier Park for movies, restaurants and shopping. Bay Breeze Bait & Tackle is located 1.0 mile from the cottage, on Back Beach Road. Bay Breeze Adventures, Bait & Tackle can help with fishing trips and rents kayaks and paddleboards.

Keywords: Friendly, comfortable cottage on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico Beaches.

Great Beachfront House
This little house is perfect. Plenty of space for us and our 3 kids with a couple of beds to spare. There’s no substitute for being right on the beach. Much more spacious and private than any condo anywhere near this price range. I love the quiet and calm Sunnyside location. This section of beach was never crowded even though it was 4th of July weekend. Highly recommended. We will stay here again.

Host profile image
Our family has owned this cottage since 1952. Our grandparents raised five children in this vacation location. A fourth generation of the family are now crabbing, discovering sand dollars, building sand castles, and enjoying their childhood beach vacations.

Why they chose this property

My grandmother always said that if heaven was not like this beach, she would be disappointed.
