We are planning a family vacation in June - finally narrowed down the location to somewhere along 30A -
Close to the beach is important, would LOVE beachfront but not sure it's in our budget. Pool access is a must with young kids.
Any thoughts of where to stay? Seaside? Seagrove? Seacrest? Rosemary Beach? or Inlet Beach? It's hard distinguishing what is different about each area.
The whole area is great. Seaside is popular, and you may pay a little more because of the popularity. Seacrest is where a lot of my friends go and they love it. Blue Mountain beach is nice as well.
30A has some amazing and gorgeous beaches. You can't go wrong. We went down to Destin (also in the area) last summer and loved it.
We stayed here www.vrbo.com/456135 Baytowne Wharf was such a fun area especially for those with kids. Free shuttle to the beach just across the interstate.
We're returning, staying in the same area but got a cottage house this year. www.vrbo.com/106177
I have an old blog post on our last trip, if you're interested.
