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, and 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!

Everything went seamlessly with this stay. The host was excellent and patient with me asking questions prior to arrival and the home was as expected so we didn’t need them throughout the stay!!
We enjoyed our stay! There was plenty of room for our large extended family. The property was clean and inviting. We loved the private beach access, which made it easy to come and go. We would recommend it to any large group. We made the best memories and can’t wait to do it again.

Amy, thank you for your 5-star review. We're pleased the space and private beach access worked well for your large family. It’s wonderful to know you made great memories, and we look forward to welcoming you back!
This is the second time we stayed at the property. This was a new management company. Their communication was great! The home was clean especially the kitchen appliances. The kitchen drawers and some of the dishes needed cleaning, but I’m thinking previous guests were part of the problem. I was a little surprised with a home that size, only one kitchen towel was provided and one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. The communication informed us that there wouldn’t be enough supplies for the stay, but for the price of the home that seemed a little cheap not to furnish another roll of toilet paper.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The house was not clean at all. There is mold in the kitchen on several ceiling spots. We emptied the dehumidifier twice daily so there is obviously a humidity problem. The kitchen and living area is on the third floor. There is an elevator that has the breaker turned off so is not usable. You cannot use the garage because the garage door doesn’t work. The oven and stove has an awful gas smell when using. You cannot use either beach service Real Joy recommends because the house is not directly on the beach. The location is wonderful but house not worth what we paid.
