Aunt Martha's Bed and Breakfast with its water-view
accommodations is located in the sunny panhandle of Florida in
Fort Walton Beach, recently rated as one of the top ten places
to live in the US by Money Magazine.
The Bed and Breakfast offers nearly 10,000 square feet of
living space. There is plenty of room to find a quiet spot to
read in the library as well as to mingle with a lively
gathering of guests on the spacious front porch. A baby grand
piano entertains guests who want live music, while a
state-of-the-art sound system with speakers throughout the
first floor can be programmed to accommodate a wide variety of
musical tastes.
From the foyer, step into the library adorned with a
spectacular brick fireplace. Adjoining is a living room and
sunroom. Large floor-to-ceiling windows illuminate each room.
French doors open onto the verandah that runs down the length
of the house and overlooks the water. A separate dining room
is spacious enough to comfortably seat 12. The room may be
used for a business meeting or an intimate meal where pocket
doors can be closed to provide privacy.
A winding staircase takes you to the second floor to five
unique rooms, each tranquil and relaxing. Beautifully
decorated with a touch of Aunt Martha's southern charm, each
lodging accommodation is equipped with a private bathroom,
telephone, and cable television. Large windows can be opened
to enjoy the warm Gulf breezes and the sounds of the shore. An
ice machine is located on the second floor, and laundry
services are available as well.
Martha and her staff provide an unforgettable breakfast each
morning. The menu includes such specialties as traditional
southern egg, ham, and cheese grits; stuffed French toast;
baked stuffed apple pancakes; broccoli and cheese quiche; and
crawfish quiche. The central location of the Inn makes it easy
for you to sample many of the fine restaurants in the area for
lunch and dinner. Staff's Restaurant, adjacent to Aunt
Martha's, has been in Martha's family for over 90 years and
offers excellent seafood and steak. |
From the moment you open the front door and step into the
spacious foyer, you are wrapped in the gracious warmth of
Martha and Bill, your hosts. The Bed and Breakfast Inn is an
exquisite example of old Florida summer-house charm blended
with all the comfort that modern-day architecture and new
construction provide, making it an intimate hotel alternative.
Whether you are attending meetings at one of the local
conference centers and looking to unwind from the day's
activities or are here purely to enjoy the beach, there are
several nearby activities to remove you from the everyday.
World-class golf courses, international shopping, and Eglin
and Hurlburt Air Force bases are just a short drive away.
