Back in September, we went to 30A (Rosemary Beach and Seaside). This was our first time, so this 30A Travel Guide is purely from the things we experienced but I loved everything we did and I wanted to share! We stayed in a rental house with our best friend and their 2 kids so it was perfect!
30 A Travel Guide
Where To Stay: We rented the most amazing house! It was perfectly central to Rosemary and Seaside and it was perfect for 4 adults and 4 kids! It had 2 master bedrooms upstairs as well as a living room, half bath, and kitchen. Downstairs there was a bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds and a trundle and another room with two twin beds. There was also another full bathroom, as well as a HUGE game room. The house also had a pool and a hot tub! It came with tons of beach equipment and the kitchen had a wine fridge and Vitamix. I couldn’t recommend it more. Also, this was not sponsored, we paid fully for this I just really loved the house.
Where To Eat: We went to a few restaurants and we loved them all! The first night we ordered pizza from Bud and Alley’s pizza. It was SO SO SO GOOD! But for sure order more than you think you need. The next day we got Publix sandwiches for lunch then ate dinner at Great Southern which was also fantastic. The day after we ate dinner at The Perfect Pig. Such a great meal. The last night we went to The Hub which has live music and tons of food options as well as shops! We also got Donuts from Dough Sea Dough one morning and they were incredible!
Where To Shop: We did not do TONS of shopping but we did go to the main shopping area in Seaside and had to check out The Seaside Style, and Seaside Style kids to outfit ourselves. There were tons of cute shops there as well!
What To Do: We went into this trip knowing we mainly wanted to relax. At night after we put the kids to bed we played lots of games (our house came with tons and we brought some). We also went to the beach of course! The beach access at our house was wonderful and the beach was private which meant it was not too crowded.
We definitely look forward to going back and adding more things to this list!
Have you been to 30A?
A private beach with less people around, sounds like a calm place to relax and take a break from the busy world.
This just sounds like the perfect break! How great that the house had 2 master bedrooms in addition to rooms for kids. Makes things perfect for two families to get away, support each other and get some much-needed relaxation. So fabulous to be so close to the beach and the beautiful sea. This is a place I would love to escape to.
Wow! This is a really amazing post! I really love this travel guide!
Looks like the perfect beach get away and the ideal spot for slowing down and feeling relaxed.
I’d really like to visit 30A one of these days. I go to FL nearly every year because it’s where my husband is from and we visit his family in Ft Lauderdale – but I haven’t been to many other parts of FL. This looks so nice!
This looks like such a great trip! We’ve actually never taken our kids to the beach, but I’m hoping to do so this summer. Mama needs a beach vacation!
This was such a great trip itinerary! My family and I enjoy playing games as well in the evening when we travel. Saving this for future trip inspiration!
Oh wow, what a fun trip! I’ve never been, but I totally want to now!
No, I haven’t been to 30A. I would love to. Those sands won’t get to enjoy themselves, you know, hihi!
This place is amazing. I also love the house you rented. I wish I can take my kids here too
This is truly a beautiful beach. I miss the beach and hope to visit one sometime in the future. You didn’t do much of shopping but I think I will do a lot in this place. SO many cute shops
The beach is my happy place. There’s something about them that makes me forget my worries and problems. Thanks for sharing this guide. It was helpful
I’ve never been there before, or heard of 30A either. Sounds like such a great place to go as a family; we would have a lot of fun there.
I love that your trip included something for everyone in the family, so you and your husband got a chance to have fun and relax too. Too often my husband and I make sure to book a place that has lots of stuff for the kids to do and then forget about ourselves and we find ourselves exhausted by the end of the trip!
Sounds like an amazing vacation! I love visiting Florida and will definitely have to plan a trip to 30A. It looks so beachy and fab!
I’ve traveled on this road and had a great time! There is so much to see and do along the way!
You all seem to have a relaxing time there and I wish I could spend time there too.
