AREA ATTRACTIONS: 

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 Gulf Place community is located along a 26-mile stretch of sugar-white sand and turquoise waters of Northwest Florida’s celebrated Emerald Coast. As one of the 16 distinct beach neighborhoods in South Walton, it has its own distinct character and charm. This colorful community on 30A is comprised of 25 acres located in the heart of Santa Rosa Beach on the corner of 30A and 393. Gulf Place was specifically designed to slow visitors and locals down with palm tree-lined streets, wide sidewalks, colorful outdoor patios with large umbrellas, nature walking trails, green spaces and ample park benches to sit and enjoy the views. Gulf Place is unique from all the other South Walton neighborhoods. Residents and guests gather here to enjoy original art, boutique shopping, local cuisine, live music and a laid back atmosphere.

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!

Great Property, Great Location
My hubby and I had an awesome trip. Our kids backed out on us last minute and we had the 3BR place to ourselves and it was so fun. The home was comfortable, the beach was AMAZING and is just a 3 minute drive down the road. The home is in a VERY nice neighborhood with an awesome pool and workout area. My hubby needs high speed internet and theirs was great for his work!! We also enjoyed using the bikes that were provided. We had a couple of glitches but they were dealt with and we felt heard on all of it. Here are the small issues: 1. The previous tenants had filled the trash to the brim and the subdivision did not pick it up even though it was on the street. However, the management company came and got it promptly!! 2. The AC controller went off for a bit and the management company was about to bring us a fan until it could be investigated, but thankfully it came back on. 3. The TV connection does not work well on the channels, but we played card games instead. More quality human time anyway!! 4. The master shower had a good bit of mold in it. Their home cleaners charge $350 to clean the property and should really have removed it for the price. SHAME ON THEM!! But the management company is taking care of that as well. ALl in all we had a GREAT time and would stay here again. Realjoy was awesome to work with. : )

Definitely Disappointing
We have stayed in this area 2-3x per year for the last 12 years, & always use VRBO. We have never been disappointed until this stay. We simply would not stay here again. We were so uncomfortable that we even asked for a partial refund so that we could move to a different property, as to not be uncomfortable for a two week trip. We were told no, as it's against the rental agreement. The furniture is extremely uncomfortable. This can be a to each their own thing, but it goes beyond that, for example the dining chairs have no seat cushion left to the point of having large dips. The bed is rock hard. They did bring us a mattress topper & this was much appreciated. The sheets on the bed were dirty & we had to request more because there are no extra sheets or pillows in the home. When we arrived after a long day it was very hot inside, there was no ice, and the ice maker did not work. So, no cold beverage. The ice maker was never fixed during our two week stay. The tv remote no longer worked, We replaced the batteries, this did not help. The property manager did finally replace the remote after several days. The house is extremely bare bones for the price. We were there two weeks and I had to buy hangers to hang up our clothes, there are none, pillows because they were so uncomfortable, an extra blanket, Tupperware, a hair dryer... lots of things that are typically staples at a nice home in this price range. The home is very rough around the edges, needs some attention. We love this neighborhood & would absolutely stay in the neighborhood again but we would not stay at this home again. We did an additional week at a different location in the area, managed by a different company, and the whole process from before check-in to check-out was a dream easy. So having the two experiences back to back, we also would not stay in property managed by RealJoy again either. I never leave bad reviews, things happen, & we typically expect some hiccups & don't mind. This was just not a good experience.

Awesome Vacation Home
The Whole process could not have been easier and the home/neighborhood was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. The only negative is that there is not direct beach access and parking is limited. If you get up early enough you will not have a problem. We would come back to this property for sure.

Beautiful area
My husband and I extended our Florida stay and booked this property. The community was beautiful and very quiet and peaceful. The pool area was picturesque. The home was comfortable. The screened in porch was a nice bonus. The bed was very comfortable. I think the only thing I noticed and it was not a big deal was that there were some signs of wear to the property. It could use some freshening up but honestly who really cares? It was such a great place to stay! My husband even saw deer eating lily pads when he walked on the neighborhood boardwalk. It is right down the street from Topsail National park and the beach there is one of the prettiest I have ever seen! It was a great stay! Thank you!
