Our first visit to Santa Rosa Beach was wonderful thanks to this beautiful home that was close to so much. You will not regret staying here. The owners are great communicators.

Hello there!

We're Brian and Aimee, and we've been lucky enough to call North Texas home since 2004! Originally hailing from the sunny Tampa, Florida area, we've built a wonderful life here with our four beautiful daughters, two amazing son-in-laws, and one adorable granddaughter. As we gear up to be empty nesters, we've found our happy place in the laid-back charm of Santa Rosa Beach.
We absolutely adore everything 30A has to offer our family, and we hope you'll come to love it too! Your stay at The Blue Marlin is bound to be fantastic. Feel free to reach out if there's anything we can do to make your time here even more enjoyable.

Enjoy Your Stay!
