If your checklist for a perfect beach vacation includes things like “friendly people,” “clean beaches,” and “small-town feel,” take a look at the Gulf-front beach communities of South Walton, Florida, in an area affectionately known as 30A for those in the know.
You may recognize 30A from the signature blue, white, and yellow stickers stuck on cars across the country, but now you know where the name comes from: East County Highway 30A, also known as Scenic Highway 30A, which stretches down the Florida Panhandle’s Gulf Coast from Grayton Beach to Rosemary Beach, passing through several charming beach communities along the way.

Reviews
We Felt at Home
From the moment we walked in, we felt at home in your beautiful house. We had everything we needed at our disposal. There was ample room for our two families - 6 adults and 6 kids ages 5 - 19. The pool was the big hit with everyone. We ate dinner one night at Goatfeathers and it was great. Thank you so much for opening your home to us. We would definitely love to come back. God Bless You! - The Nieves / Clark families

Our Week Was Phenomenal!
Our week long stay was phenomenal! We had three families - 4 adults and 8 children. We all had plenty of space. The kids absolutely had a blast in the pool. The house is in a beautiful setting and was more than what we expected. The water here on the beaches is gorgeous compared to Gulf Shores and Dauphin Island. We plan to come back again with the children to enjoy this all. Thank you so much Ted! - The Ramer Bunch, Versailles, MO

#1 Vacation House
My 5 grown children, husband and I spent the week at Nivel Del Mar. After visiting the areas of Seaside, Watercolor, Rosemary and Destin for many years, we all agree this is our favorite house and location. We enjoyed the fabulous pool, porches and quite neighborhood. The beds are all very comfortable and kitchen well stocked for our needs. The house was very clean when we arrived. We girls enjoyed all the art, pictures, do dads (birds on shelf, butterflies, lighted pictures over stairwell. The TV's were awsome. Yes this is our #1 vacation house. We will be back! Thank you Ted!

Family Tradition
We began this family tradition of vacationing to Florida for a relaxing, peaceful, getaway years ago and to say we were pleased would be an understatement. The kids loved the pool, the location is amazing, and the house is outstanding. We were so happy to have been able to continue this tradition in your home!

Best Family Gahering Ever
Words cannot describe our stay at the Nivel Del Mar! The house had everything we needed to cook our meals, including outside grilling! We were very close to public beach access but the pool was truly wonderful for cooling off at the end of the day and playing water volleyball with our family! But the best part of all was Ted, our host, who was fantastic! He was always available if we had a question or needed something for our stay. Nivel Del Mar is the best!

Outstanding!
I can’t express to you how wonderful this home is. In additional to the home, the owner, Ted, was so wonderful to work with. We’ve stayed at many beach rentals (mostly condos) and decided this year we would try something different. We’ve never been to Santa Rosa or rented an actual house and were a little nervous about both. As soon as we pulled up the this home, we knew it was something special. Everything was as it appears in the photos but better. There are so many personal touches that make it feel like a home and made it very convenient (2 refrigerators, a separate ice maker for those coolers, plenty of pool toys, bikes…….the list goes on and on). The location is perfect and we were minutes from everything. In addition to that, Ted offered a complete list of food recommendations, public beach accesses and parks and even had links and directions. We referred to this list the whole week and were never disappointed. He added such a personal touch and truly cares about making our stay very special. We will definitely come back - there’s satisfactory and then there’s outstanding - this place was beyond outstanding!!

2020 Vacation
We decided on this home for our 2020 Family vacation because it would accommodate our large family, it did not disappoint. Also being pet friendly was important. Everyone was comfortable, plenty of room to move around. The pool was awesome. With such a large group , cooking at home was very imporant, the kitchen is well equipped to handle that. Our favorite feature is the large screened porch which was a great place to have morning coffee. The beds are comfortable, plenty of baths and plenty of hot water. Very comfortable furnishings. Ted, the owner, gave very good instructions to the use of the home and visiting the area. Although we had a few issues with the booking , we were able to resolve those with Ted.

Home Away from Home.
I have rented vacation homes throughout the US for many years, yet previously, I have not found a place that truly feels like home. Nivel Del Mar is in a quiet and lovely neighborhood a block from Hwy 30A; an easy walk to the beach; and close to shops and restaurants. The home is on a large lot with a beautiful lawn and gardens. The pool is amazing. And there is also a hot tub, all surrounded by a tropical paradise of palm trees and flowers.The home is comfortable with furnishings one would chose for their own home.I arrived to find a basket of treats; a selection of waters and juices; plenty of towels; comfortable beds; great TVs and the entire home is very well decorated.I stayed for three months and could not have been happier. Nivel Del Mar truly feels like you are at your very own beach home!
