Escape to “The Saltwater Container: A Beachside Oasis” – the ultimate getaway for couples or solo travelers looking to reconnect with nature and the waves.
This unique 20ft container home on Okaloosa Island offers an intimate escape just steps from the beach. With direct access to Beach Access #1 and a short stroll to the crystal-clear Gulf waters, you’ll feel the salt in the air and the sand beneath your feet in no time.
Step into a beautifully designed living space that makes the most of every square inch. Our charming container home offers a cozy retreat with a comfortable queen bed, the perfect place to unwind after a day of sun, surf, and sand. The open-concept layout includes a fully equipped kitchenette, allowing you to effortlessly prepare everything from a quick breakfast to a beach picnic. Enjoy your meals at the inviting dining nook, where natural light pours in through the windows, creating a bright and airy atmosphere.
The space is efficiently designed, covering just 180 square feet, with limited storage for luggage. Large suitcases won’t fit, as the layout is made for minimalist travel with small bags and backpacks. A small area next to the fridge behind the bed accommodates up to 10 hangers for your convenience.
The bathroom is sleek and cleverly designed, featuring a modern shower that’s perfect for refreshing after a day at the beach. Step outside to your private outdoor area—an ideal space for sipping morning coffee, reading a book, or enjoying a sunset meal in peace.
For an added touch of magic, a spiral staircase leads you to the rooftop deck, where two Adirondack chairs invite you to relax and take in the spectacular views. Watch stunning sunrises, mesmerizing sunsets, moonrises, and moonsets—all while enjoying panoramic vistas of the water that elevate your experience.
Perfectly located just steps from Okaloosa Island’s pristine shores, our container home offers easy access to the beach, where you can soak up the sun, swim in the clear turquoise waters, or take a leisurely stroll along the shoreline. After a day of coastal adventures, return to your cozy sanctuary and unwind in style.
In addition to its charm and functionality, the home is equipped with a premium RainSoft whole-house water filtration system, ensuring every drop of water is purified and free from harmful contaminants. This advanced system removes chlorine, heavy metals, and other impurities, providing guests with cleaner, fresher water for drinking, cooking, and bathing. The softer water enhances comfort and leaves you feeling pampered—a luxury not often found in other Airbnbs. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference during your stay.
Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or a peaceful solo retreat, our cozy container home is the perfect base for your beachside adventures. Book your stay today and experience the charm of coastal living in an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind accommodation!
