This is a fantastic location with  Gulf Place Town Center  only  2  miles to the West and Watercolor,  Grayton  Beach, Seaside, Seacrest and Rosemary Beach just minutes away to the East. Biking is a great activity to enjoy as the scenic bike path meanders along 30A.  Bike over to Blue Mountain Beach Creamery for some homemade scoops that will have your taste buds coming back! 

30A is a fantastic destination, the beaches are some of the world’s best with sugar white sand and emerald green waters. You will find plenty of beach accesses along a 17 mile stretch of Santa Rosa Beach. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine and the incredible architecture that makes 30A famous, there are activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, tennis -- you'll find it all right here.

The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Loved this spot, right on the beach with private breach access. Quick walk to a local natural food store that had everything we needed when we weren’t eating out. Great location for what we were looking for…quiet and lowkey. Can’t wait to go back and will stay here again!

The condo was comfortable and nicely decorated and updated. The king size bed was so comfortable. RealJoy was very responsive when there were a couple of operational issues with the WiFi and washer/dryer. Some of the hard and soft goods in the condo were very worn and could use replacement: living room throws; sleeper sofa; cookware quality.

Overall we had a very nice stay. We came in from Ohio for a wedding so we didn’t spend a ton of time there but it pretty much had everything that we needed. Nice decor and bed was very comfortable. Perfect location for the beach.

Time away on my birthday

This was the perfect spot to be close to the beach as well as neat coffee shops and ice cream at Blue Mt. Beach. I felt completely safe and everything was perfect. The parking is a little tight and the condo is a little hard to find if you aren't looking closely - watch for the sign and know you have to drive back behind the condo on the main road to get to this one.

Great place

This place was perfect for the two of us. The kitchen supplies could have been better, but that’s ok because we ate out most nights. The stove burner never got hot enough to boil water. However the location was fantastic, quiet, quaint, private beach but still close enough to restaurants and activities. Seaside is only 10-15 minutes away.
