About this property

Gulf View and Oyster Lake! Private beach boardwalk! Allen's Dune

  • Allen’s Dune – Gulf Views, Oyster Lake Views & Your Own Private Beach Boardwalk + 20 Feet of Private Beach Frontage!



    2 Beach Chairs and 1 Umbrella provided everyday March 1 – October 31



    Welcome to your happy place. Allen’s Dune on 30A is a classic, colorful, old‑Florida beach house that radiates joy the moment you walk through the door. This beloved family retreat sits just one row back from the Gulf—but with its private beach boardwalk, you’ll feel like the sand is your backyard.



    Inside, the home is bright, open, and designed for effortless together time. The spacious family room flows into the dining area and the newly remodeled kitchen, featuring crisp white cabinetry and sparkling countertops. From the kitchen, enjoy dual views—peaceful Oyster Lake to the north and the shimmering Gulf of Mexico to the south. It’s the best of both worlds.



    Step outside and the magic continues. The screened porch opens directly to the private boardwalk, making sunrise strolls, sunset chats, and moonlit beach walks part of your daily rhythm. After a day of sun and saltwater, unwind on the back porch with a gulf breeze and a view that never gets old. This is where family stories are told, laughter lingers, and memories take root.

    Located on the quiet, scenic west end of 30A in Dune Allen Beach, Allen’s Dune is just 0.9 mile from Gulf Place Town Center—an easy, leisurely bike ride to dining, shopping, live music, and kid‑friendly art classes. It’s no wonder this home has become a cherished vacation tradition for so many families.

Best of both worlds family vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Love that this house is located between a lake and the beach! You can sit on the screened in backporch and hear and watch the waves roll in. You can also sit on the front porch and watch mullet skip across the lake. There’s a pier our grandsons loved fishing from at the lake. House has a great set up. 4 bedrooms with 2 tub/showeres and 4 toilets!! Things were clean for the most part but felt they could have been even cleaner. Coffee pot needed to be cleaner, potholders were dirty, little things like that. Smoke detector kept going off but I called and someone came and fixed it. Was disappointed because someone showed up at the door and said they were there to fix the dryer. We had no idea they were coming. We had plans and one didn’t get to participate because he didn’t want to leave him there by himself. A heads up would have been nice. Overall, a great place to stay with a great location with your own little strip of private beach.

Great Location Makes Up for Everything

We loved the location and the quietness away from all the Spring Breakers. The house was convenient to every thing and it was wonderful having a view of the Gulf and the Lake. The description said the house had 4 baths. In fact it has 4 toilets and 2 bathtub/showers. This is not 4 baths! I would NEVER have rented this had I known the true situation. However the home was lovely and we had a wonderful time. My only other concern is the beds only had a sheet on them....no blanket or spread. We had a cool spell and had to dig around to find blankets to keep warm. The blankets were in the house just not put on the beds.

Santa Rosa Beach Relaxation

The house we had was a “veteran” house but just like it was described in the listing. It could stand to be updated, but it met our needs. We enjoyed the location and really appreciated absolutely no crowds on the beach. It was like a private beach most of the time.
