The most unique vacation villa available on the American Riviera, and one of the most sought after properties on VRBO!

Osprey Villa is your get-a-way opportunity on the Gulf Coast. Incredibly, although somewhat secluded, this property is only 15 minutes away from the crowds, if thats what you need.

NO crowds and NO traffic.

If you're tired of vacationing in a shoebox, packed into a big building with a bunch of people you don't know, or stacked next door to people that are not with you, then you might like Osprey.

Osprey Villa is maintained and cared for to the highest of standards, and those who know and enjoy the difference will appreciate our unique home. This is an extraordinary piece of real estate, unlike anything in this area, and is fully equipped for a unique and relaxing vacation.

Most don't want to leave Osprey Villa when they get here. But if you want to venture out, you are a short drive to Owa Amusement Park and Water Park, The Wharf, where you'll find all kinds of restaurants, bars, shops, Rave theater, and a world class amphitheater featuring the top entertainment. Also within a short drive is the World famous LuLu's (famous because LuLu is Jimmy Buffet's sister and he sometimes shows up at the restaurant unannounced!), Tacky Jacks, or Acme Oyster House.. The beautiful Soldiers Creek Golf Club is only a five minute drive to the North. The infamous Pirates Cove is 4 miles away (best 'dive' bar and hamburger joint on the Coast).

Want to shop The largest outlet mall in the South is only 15 minutes away.

Don't miss the Legends show.... highly recommended. Straight out of Vegas.

And yes, a large pontoon boat is on site and experienced boaters are welcome to use it for a daily fee! The boat is great for sightseeing, sun tanning, exploring, fishing...!

A green thumb lives here..... Something you won't find at most vacation rentals....Trees! Osprey Estate has literally thousands of trees and plants! Palms, live oaks, magnolias, river burch, cypress, red oaks, oleanders, bananas, loblolly pines, redbuds, azaleas, lemons, satsumas, peach.... goes on and on - we've catalogued over 10,000 individual plants, and nearly 100 species.

I know all of this 'sounds' really great. But possibly the best feature Osprey Villa has to offer is the lack of noise. What you are likely to hear: Osprey (fishing hawks), pelicans, ducks, geese, a dog bark now and then, dolphins, speckle trout, the occasional fishing boat or dolphin tour boat, the occasional cigarette boat making a high speed run in the Intercoastal, crabs (jk), the pool dribbling over the infinity edge, the breeze blowing through the palms, or maybe some Bob Marley tunes coming from your Cabana.

What you are NOT likely to hear: Traffic, crowds, announcements, elevator dings, horns, sirens, people complaining, or annoying people (unless you bring 'em....and PLEASE don't bring annoying people to our paradise)....

Osprey Villa is very easy to get to. The Villa is located approximately 40 minutes from Pensacola Airport, and little over one hour from the Mobile Airport. Drive times are approximately four hours from Birmingham, five hours from Atlanta, nine hours from Dallas / Houston / Nashville.

Grocery service is available :-) For a fee, you can have the pantry and refrigerator stocked before you arrive. Just send us your shopping list. . We can also assist with catering for your parties, and helicopter tours or hot air balloon rides over the beautiful American Riviera. We can also assist with fishing trips...anything from a back bay trip, to a bottom fishing trip, to a super lux tuna or marlin trip. Just ask. We are life long residents and we can help you with just about anything.

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but with all the pictures we took on this vacation, it still is just not enough to convey the absolute beauty of this property. Driving in past ponds with fountains, ducks waddling by, flowers everywhere lining brick paths and towering trees with swings. Opening the door to the house itself felt like coming home..but walking out to the back patio was magic. The pools edge blends into the water of the bay and walking down to your own private beach was perfect. We watched dolphins daily, played Marco polo for hours, caught and released blue crabs, kayaked sunsets and sunrises. There were even kittens!! Everything was beyond perfect. None of us wanted to leave! The house was stocked with anything we could have wanted along with super comfy beds, linens, towels etc. We will absolutely be going back!! This trip gave both us and our two girls (6 & 11), core memories that will last us a life time!! Cant say enough. Thank you so much for having us!

    This was a beautiful and perfect place to stay for our family celebrating several occasions. It was spacious, clean and a beautiful setting. A perfect setup for kids to play at the pool, beach and fish off the dock. The property manager and the owner were very responsive for any needs! We will definitely be returning.

    I couldn’t have imagined a better week away with my family. This property is like none I’ve seen before. We enjoyed soaking it all in, swimming in the pool and exploring the property. Our kids especially enjoyed the swings, pool and seeing lizards, frogs, crabs, dolphins and 2 friendly cats. Stacey was a wonderful host!

    This property is tucked away from the Hussle and bustle of day to day life. The pool from the infinity pool was amazing. The house was open concept and very clean. Within a half hour to beaches bars and restaurants. Some friendly neighborhood cats might visit! The owner lives next door but you wouldn't know it. Everyone keeps to themselves. He was very responsive when needed though. All in all we would rent again.

    Beautiful property with everything you see in the photos. I liked the cleanliness of the place and how quiet and private the location is. The owner is great and very helpful. Easy access to the south shore beach and grocery store about 20 min away. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely go back someday.

    Osprey Villa was a gorgeous rental house. We loved every minute of it. The host was easily accessible and answered our questions via text very timely. We loved the views, the amenities that were offered (including bikes, kayaks, pool table and infinity pool over looking the bay, private beach). It was about a 30 minute, very easy, drive to the public beach and more action and dining. We loved having our privacy. Highly, HIGHLY, recommend!
