* Summer Discounts! Holiday Isle Getaway
Condo was exactly how it was pictured online. We were able to check in a little bit earlier than anticipated. Once we arrived, it was extremely easy to get into the condo and it was very clean.

Vacation home BEACH & FUN (2911)
Me and my friends enjoyed the stay, it was very clean & comfortable. Very much peaceful & beautiful.

Casa Marlin Beach House PCB, FL
This stylish, modern condo was a perfect coastal retreat, impeccably clean with a bright, open layout that felt both luxurious and welcoming. The private pool was the star for the kids—they splashed and played for hours, safely enclosed in the condo’s gated outdoor area, while we relaxed on comfy lounge chairs nearby. Just steps from the beach, we could easily alternate between pool time and building sandcastles by the ocean. The condo was fully equipped with a top-notch kitchen, cozy beds, and high-speed Wi-Fi for streaming kids’ shows. The host was phenomenal, quick to respond. Every detail, from the smart TV to the stack of fresh towels, made this stay effortless and memorable. This private oasis was the ultimate beachside getaway for our family, and we’re already planning our return! Highly recommend for anyone seeking kid-friendly, poolside paradise.

Stay salty * 0.6 miles to beach* monthly discount
Great location very close to all the stores and restaurants. We will be coming back and booking again

Somer Seas: Your 30A Getaway!
We had a closet door on the pantry that was kind of hanging there when we checked in. It eventually fell next to our 3yo grandson. Door was pretty heavy. We ended up propping it up so it wouldn’t fall again. Dryer had issues. Sounded awful. Husband said bearing were shot. Took a long time to dry. Overall great place besides those 2 issues. Enjoyed our stay with family. Will definitely rent again.

Miramar Beach Luxe Retreat 3BR/3.5BA
Stayed here for a week with a small group of friends, and we absolutely loved the house. It was no more than a 5 min drive to the beach! The house itself was very nice. Very spacious downstairs, couch was ungodly comfortable. Landscaping is pristine and looks very nice. Plenty of good restaurants 5-10 min away. House is at the end of a very quiet, upscale neighborhood drive. We really enjoyed our stay, and would definitely recommend the place to anyone that wants something bigger than a condo, and doesn’t need it right on the beachfront. Thank you Luxe for an amazing stay!

Lake/Gulf views! 3 public beach accesses on 30a
Great place to stay! Host was responsive to any questions and walkable distance to the beach

Still Searching for Summer? June Dates Available!
The home was absolutely as described and wonderful for our trip! The access to the beach was unmatched and the size and cleanliness of the home was even better than stated! Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Amazing Moonlight Escape-
Beautiful house in walking distance to shops and restaurants. Easy access to the beach and the community pool. The house was perfect for our group of 3 families with young kids. The bunk bed room worked perfect for our little ones.

Destin For Greatness - SLEEPS 12
Our group loved our stay at Destin for Greatness. We had everything we needed and plenty of room for 8 people. The pool was convenient and the beach shuttle was so helpful and quick! We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our girls trip!

11 Pools,Beach,Mini Golf,Pickleball,Fun
Our stay at Nicole’s Airbnb was a blessing, especially as we were evacuating from a hurricane. Despite the situation, we felt completely at ease thanks to her hospitality. The comfortable and stylish rooms, multiple pools to choose from, and the short walk to a pristine beach gave us a much-needed escape. Nicole went above and beyond, providing beach chairs, an umbrella, towels, toys for the kids, and many fans, which helped the kids sleep better. When the cart for our beach gear broke, she had a replacement within hours—amazing service! The beds were incredibly comfortable, which was perfect for our extended stay. The private office space was convenient, and the restaurants and activities nearby were great, with everything just a short drive away. Due to the hurricane, Nicole let us extend our stay at a reduced cost, giving us peace of mind when our power was out at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better place and will definitely return!

Grayt Dayz Ahead Vacation House
We loved our stay, just as advertised! We really enjoyed using the tram to the beach. We packed up the rolling cart from the shared closet with beach chairs, an umbrella, shovels and buckets, and walked a few blocks to the tram pick up and got no sand in our car, which was a plus for us! Tram came around every 3-5 minutes. Location was awesome, good lunch or dinner spot at the beach access. Bathroom, water, snacks all easily accessible. Great house and location, and friendly and accessible owner. Thanks!

The Panama City Beach Getaway
I would highly recommend staying here! The house is clean and cozy and conveniently located close to the beach.

Sand Dollar 7B - 2BR Private Beach, Free Bch Svc
Great place right on the beach. Having the chairs and umbrella put out every day was nice. Didn't have to worry about carrying that stuff down ourselves and always had a great spot on the water. As others mentioned the parking spots are very tight and the stairs to the beach were steep. However the neighbors were kind enough to stagger parking so that made it easier. The stairs were steep but manageable, if you have bad knees it may be an issue, but otherwise it was good.

Ocean Views, Pool, Near Pier Park, Walk to beach
Great customer service, very responsive with communication, was able to check in early , it was a great experience I will recommend this place to anyone. They was Awesome 😎

Views! Steps to the beach. Great pool and hot tub
This place was lovely. It had most everything we needed. We really enjoyed the amenities and the location. Nancy was extremely responsive to any questions I had. We hope to return next year!
Your guide to Santa Rosa Beach
Introduction
Santa Rosa Beach is the largest of the 16 small communities that make up South Walton County along Florida’s Emerald Coast. The area is known for its stunning aquamarine waters and powdery, bright-white sand that, from afar, almost looks like snow. Spend your days relaxing on the beach and hiking the trails in nearby state parks such as Deer Lake, Grayton Beach, and Topsail Hill Preserve. You may have to dodge a summer storm, but Santa Rosa Beach has plenty of art galleries, boutiques, and theaters where you can pass the time. North of town, Choctawhatchee Bay is great for kayaking and fishing, and you can easily find a seafood restaurant to cook your catch while you sit back and enjoy the sunset with a cold, locally made craft beer.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Santa Rosa Beach
Summer in the Florida Panhandle is famously hot and humid; in fact, the air conditioner was invented in Apalachicola, Fl, just 100 miles from Santa Rosa Beach. Memorial Day marks the start of the busy season, when the weather gets humid, temperatures climb into the high 80s and low 90s Fahrenheit, and families arrive at their beach vacation rentals. June ushers in hurricane season, which peaks in late summer and brings afternoon thunderstorms. Visitor numbers also spike over spring break in March, when the weather is warm and sunny and the coastal wildflowers bloom. But Santa Rosa Beach aficionados know that fall is the best time of the year here, thanks to temperatures around 70 degrees, low humidity, and waters still warm from the summer heat. Winters can get chilly and windy, but temperatures generally hover in the mid-50s, and the beaches are blissfully deserted.
Top things to do in Santa Rosa Beach
Point Washington State Forest
This 15,407-acre preserve contains cypress swamps, pine flatwoods, coastal scrub, and sandhills, as well as more than 27 miles of trails to hike and bike, including a popular 10-mile loop. You might even be lucky enough to spot gopher tortoises, flatwoods salamanders, and American kestrels.
Eden Gardens State Park
Eden Gardens State Park sprawls across 163 acres and includes flower gardens, woodlands, and a reflecting pool. The park’s crown jewel is the renovated Wesley House mansion, which was built in 1897 and is now open for tours. Visit in mid-March when the camellias and azaleas are in full bloom.
Drive Highway 30A
Stretching for 28.5 miles along the Gulf of Mexico, scenic Highway 30A is lined with sugar-sand beaches, dune lakes, pine forests, saw palmettos, and pastel-colored cottages clustered into quaint villages, including upscale and artsy Gulf Place, mellow Blue Mountain Beach, the WaterColor vacation home community, and the design-forward planned communities of Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach.
