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 Seahorse Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 715 feet out from the Topsail Hill Preserve 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 Seahorse Reef is at a depth of 13-18 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!

Thank you for your review! We're glad the house was beautiful and our team was responsive and accommodating. We appreciate your recommendation and would love to host you again. Kindly, RealJoy VacationsReal Joy staff
The home was beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean. Plenty of space for our family of 8 for the week. Our little ones enjoyed exploring the walkable pathways and we enjoyed the outdoor spaces and thoughtful accommodations of games, puzzles and recreational beach gear on site. The grand design of the open floorplan was wonderful for gathering and there was even a sunroom to enjoy the outside. The kitchen was well equipped. We would definitely recommend this property and we look forward to visiting Santa Rosa soon.- Reviewed On: 4/29/2026

House was very clean and in location not too far from the beach and many restaurant options.
