ASH IN THE SAND — YOUR 30A FAMILY VACATION STARTS HERE

Bring the whole family and settle into **Ash in the Sand**, a beautifully designed 3,300-square-foot, three-story vacation home in Santa Rosa Beach where space, comfort, and fun come together for your 30A getaway.

The place was great and check in and out a breeze. Easy to get to other places but far enough back you did not feel crowded. The golf cart was in great condition and pool perfect for all ages.

Vacation Perfection

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Ash in the Sand was nothing less than perfect! The home is beautifully decorated, very clean, and well equipped. The extra amenities such as a 6 passenger golf cart, ping pong table, foosball and cruiser bikes just add to the fun! The beds are quite comfortable, the location is ideal...10 minute walk, less than 5 min ride in the golf cart. Very close to downtown shops and restaurants. The property manager at Vacation at It's Finest is very friendly, responsive and so accommodating- genuinely concerned with wanting to make our stay the best it could be. And that it was...have stayed in many vacation rentals over the years and this one was hands down, the BEST!!!

Best Vacation 2024 Ash In The Sand

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed with Vacation at its Finest at a vacation rental property in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida in May, 2024 for 7 nights. My husband, our daughter's family of 5 and my son's family of 3. Five children ages 9 mos, 2.5 yrs, 7, 9 and 11. The kids loved having their own private paradise including pool, gulf cart, pingpong table, foosball and corn hole. The property management staff was the best I've worked with since we started taking our family vacations to Gulf Shores, Orange Beach and 30A Florida for the last 9 years. Donna and her team were very attentive, quick to respond, knowledgable and friendly.The location was the best and everything was within walking distance (beach, coffee, food).
