Gorgeous 5 bedroom home with private pool, just steps from the beach!
Looking for a home with a private pool, close to the beach, with exquisite attention to detail and many custom add-on's? After Dune Delight is the house for you!!
This gorgeous home in the exclusive gated community of Waters Edge is simply stunning.
As you walk into your vacation home, you will notice the open area that includes the dining room, family room and kitchen. State-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, custom cabinets, a large dining table that seats 10 (hand made by a good friend of ours!) a window seat and custom barn doors make the kitchen a place you may never want to leave! It opens to a spacious family room with windows overlooking the pool, and a large 70" flat screen TV. Just off the kitchen is an additional sitting room that allows a little privacy if you find you must work while on vacation! That area is also perfect for game night, puzzles or extra meal seating. The first floor also includes a half bathroom and a large bedroom with a king bed and private bathroom.
On the second floor, you will find three complete bedrooms. One bunk room with a private bath. The beds are twin over full-size. This floor also includes two primary suites. The first has its own private balcony overlooking the pool. The second is the largest and most luxurious primary bedroom. It includes a sitting area, 60" flat screen tv, large bathroom and beautiful views. The most unique detail to the second floor is a screened-in sleeping porch. A twin size day bed allows you to sleep in the sea breeze and a large sitting area and flat screen TV gives you more room for the family to spread out. The fall months at the beach will make this your favorite spot for sure!
The third floor includes the fifth bedroom with a queen bed and private bathroom. There is also a media room with plenty of seating to watch the big game or gather as a family. The media room also has a Keurig and cups so you can have that first cup of coffee faster on the balcony! The best part of the third floor is the absolutely stunning view of the gulf from your private balcony. Gather in the evening for a drink with friends and watch the sun set on another perfect day!
After Dune Delight is a wonderful escape for your entire family. A private pool area includes an outside bathroom and shower and a professionally landscaped back yard with ample, comfortable seating makes it a perfect place to relax after a long, hard day at the beach! A 21 inch diameter Weber charcoal grill is also available. A palm tree-lined path that leads to the beach frames one side of the pool area. The beach is less than a one minute walk from your front door! Your rental includes one beach set up with two chairs and an umbrella (from March 1 through Thanksgiving weekend only). You can order extra set ups directly through the chair company for an additional fee in advance if you wish.
Should you wish to explore what the local area has to offer, you'll find an abundance of choices. The home has parking for three cars. A bike and walking path is just outside the entrance to the neighborhood. We are steps away from famous Rosemary Beach where you will find numerous unique shops, award-winning restaurants, and a relaxing day spa. We are a short half hour drive from Destin and Panama City Beach, both of which have numerous restaurants and unlimited shopping possibilities!

After Dune Delight far exceeded our expectations! The host was amazing to work with and everything was absolutely perfect! The house is a one-of-a-kind gem to stay in, from the private pool to the private beach. Not to mention the incredible "sleeping porch" where we spent hours visiting with dear friends. The home's decor in each room is well thought-out, pristine and special. Coffee on the 3rd floor balcony is not to be missed here. We will certainly be back! Thank you for having us!

We rented this house for our 49th birthday celebration - 8 women. The location is perfect, lots of space in the house, great Gulf views, and super clean! The ice maker was a huge bonus. All beach rentals should have them, but very few do! Host was great to work with too! We will be renting it again next year!

We had a fabulous stay at After Dune Delight! The property manager was excellent with communication. The listing accurately depicts the home. We traveled with our two adult children and there was ample space, comfortable beds…the house was so comfortable and inviting. It was steps from the beach and the gated community was quiet and secure. It was easy to walk to Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach restaurants and shops. We loved the property and hope to visit again!

PERFECTION. 10 plus, plus, plus! It's our second time renting this gorgeous home and we’ll be back again if the owners will have us. You really have to see this home to believe it. Its location in a small gated community is perfect and you can quickly and easily walk to so many restaurants and shops. The beautiful private beach is literally about 35 steps away. The owners and property manager are accessible (if you have any questions), they’re so kind an accommodating and they make the rental process a breeze. We love your home, and we love Rosemary Beach. Thank you so much! Diane Downes, Milford, MI

Excellent Home & Host!
We just returned from 7 nights at After Dune Delight and had an amazing time! We traveled with two adult (mid 20's) children and their significant others along with a 17 you, 14 yo, and 11 yo. The adults took the masters. The 17 yo took another room. And we still had two open bunks. The home is immaculate and our host, De Lyons, was extremely helpful and accommodating. This property is an extremely short walk to the beach. The location could not have been better as we either biked or walked to shopping and restaurants. The private pool was perfect for afternoon and late-night dips or as a break from the sand for some of the kids. All of the beds were extremely comfortable, the indoor and outdoor living spaces were clean and very well decorated. There are a couple of balconies and a bonus "sleeping porch" that was a great place to hang out with the family during an afternoon rain shower. The only change I would make to this property is to add a gas grill. All though I love charcoal and smoking meals on occasion, the convenience of a gas grill would have made grilling at home much easier. We will definitely be back! Seriously, we mauled over a lot of different options and could not have found a better place!

We had an excellent stay at ADD with our family of 9. The home was spacious and perfect for our family with 6 adults and 3 children. The proximity to the beach and the town was the best part as we enjoyed exploring the town everyday and making multiple trips to the beach during the day. De was excellent with communications and the home came with clear instructions that were helpful. We look forward to coming back for another stay at ADD in the future.

We were in Rosemary for a wedding. What an amazing house! We had lots of events but always looked forward to coming back to the house. Perfect location. Wish we could have stayed longer!There are no beach towels or toys so just know when packing. Also, there was no dishwasher soap or detergent, so add that to your grocery list. We would definitely stay here again! Beautiful home!Communication was great with property manager. We appreciated that!

Perfect Quiet Beach House
Perfect Quiet Beach House. Short walk to the beach. Heated pool was nice in early March since the ocean was still a bit too cold. My large family slept comfortably with all the large rooms. Walking distance to shops and restaurants also made it a plus. Would recommend. Private beach with chairs and umbrella set out daily a nice touch. Sand was the softest I’ve felt! 5-stars

Vacation in paradise
This is our 2nd stay in this property. It is spacious, beautifully appointed, comfortable, and just a moments trek to the beach. The beds are very comfortable and that’s no small consideration at the end of a busy day. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals for our crowd. Love the ice machine! When we had any questions the property manager, De, responded quickly and most helpfully. We made many happy family memories in this beautiful, secure home. Storms from Hurricane Helene were pounding the house one night, but the house is built like a fortress so we all slept soundly. We were on the edge of the storm, so not directly hit, but it was a big deal to feel safe in the face of gale winds. We are so grateful to stay in this home and look forward to returning.

Five Stars!
This was probably the best rental house we have ever stayed in! It felt like we were staying at a home rather than a rental. For being a beach house, it was very homey and well kept. Everything was clean and there was plenty of space. The walking distance to the beautiful beach and food/shops was key for travelling with ypung kids. We will definitely be back!

“Greatest vacay ever”
“Greatest trip ever”, these were my daughter’s words on the way back home.
This Vacation Hope is even nicer than described, and nicer than all the 5 star reviews. It’s truly breathtakingly beautiful, well designed and appointed, spacious and even had a chilled pool, which I didn’t notice on any of the descriptions. The home is about 50 yards from the gorgeous beach and came with an umbrella and two chairs ready from about 8:00 am to 5:00 pm first row on the beach. Renting bikes was about a 5 minute walk, as well as getting to all the shops and great restaurants. We had groceries delivered ahead of time and the property manager was kind enough to let them in to put the groceries away for us. We stayed only 4 nights but it was just perfect for us. Owners/property manager was extremely easy to work with and did whatever necessary to ensure we had a great time. 5+ stars all the way!

Better Than Expected
I'm extremely OCD about where my family stays (wife and 7 year old daughter), but this home far exceeded my expectations. Perfectly clean. Well stocked with the things you need that you forget to pack. Everything worked - rarity. So close to the beach. Privacy was so nice. Quiet, you can't hear anything inside. Nice and safe and away from the traffic. Very very close to all the things you want to do at night...shops and amazing restaurants etc. You don't get bombarded by a checklist of things you have to do... this home is very easy to stay and they are so very fair about everything. *My one and only issue (which has absolutely nothing to do with our host) was the cell service in this area. We knew this coming in, but this year it was worse than years past. I couldn't look up the details email to get into the house - my suggestion - just print this stuff out before you arrive, no biggie. Fortunately they provide very good WiFi that worked wonderfully all week.
This place is a 6 Star listing. I plan to book again next year. Do not hesitate to book. I hope this helps in your vacation decision.

Our stay at After Dune Delight exceeded our expectations. The house was beautiful, very clean, and had the perfect accommodations for our family. The kids had a blast in the pool while parents and grandparents enjoyed the patio.
