Discover the Charm of Container Living on Okaloosa Island with our bespoke 20-foot container home, thoughtfully crafted by CargoHome. Perfectly positioned along the scenic boardwalk to Beach Access One, our Beach Boardwalk Bungalow offers a one-of-a-kind retreat that merges eco-friendly design with modern comforts and stunning views.
Unmatched Style and Comfort
Step into our tiny home, where innovative design meets cozy beach living. The original shipping container doors, now reimagined as storm shutters, open to a bright, airy space with a full-width glass sliding door, complete with a smart lock for secure and seamless access. Inside, a plush queen bed and a swivel-mounted 32-inch Smart TV ensure relaxation is always within reach. The living area features a comfortable chair—ideal for unwinding after a sun-soaked day.
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.
Compact Luxury
Behind the queen bed, a well-equipped kitchenette provides everything needed for a beach getaway: a microwave, toaster, coffee maker, kettle, French press, and a compact fridge and freezer. The bathroom features a fully tiled walk-in shower with a luxurious rainfall showerhead and simple controls, complemented by eco-friendly linens, fresh towels, and a full-size mirror.
Elevated Outdoor Living
Step outside to a cozy seating area, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee. A spiral staircase leads to the upper deck, where Adirondack chairs offer elevated views of the bustling boardwalk, tranquil Santa Rosa Sound, and the iconic Brooks Bridge. It’s the ideal spot for sunrises, sunsets, and moon-gazing.
Beach Ready
Just a 3-minute walk from the Gulf of Mexico and only a 2-minute stroll to the popular Stewby’s Seafood, our location offers the best of Okaloosa Island. Whether you’re into paddleboarding or relaxing by the beach, everything you need for a memorable coastal escape is right at your doorstep.
Additional Perks
Guests will appreciate the high-speed Wi-Fi, blackout blinds for restful sleep, and an onsite EV charger for added convenience. Exclusive parking off Bream Ave leads you via a 100-foot boardwalk to your seaside retreat.
Premium Water Filtration
Our container home features a state-of-the-art 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, offering cleaner, fresher water for drinking, cooking, and bathing. Enjoy water that feels softer on your skin and enhances your comfort—an added luxury not often found in most Airbnbs.
