Where to stay in and around Seacrest Beach

It’s easy to mix up the names in this stretch of Walton County. Seacrest Beach is a walkable development between Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach, anchored by an HOA with a huge lagoon pool, a beach tram, and a private beach, while Seacrest, often called “Old Seacrest,” is the quieter, less walkable stretch to the west, from Camp Creek Lake to Alys Beach, made up of separate neighborhoods. See how each compares.

Seacrest Beach community
Stay here if the pool and the community tram matter most to your family. The houses around the lagoon pool are part of the HOA, so registered guests get wristbands for the pool, the tram, and the private beach. The beach is across 30A, a boardwalk walk or a tram ride away.
The Village and nearby developments
The Village of South Walton is the pick if you want to walk to restaurants and shops, with Peddlers 30A on its square and Rosemary Beach next door. It’s a neighboring development with its own pool, and it shares Seacrest Beach’s private beach. The Inn at Seacrest Beach, The Alexander, and Treetop Village are separate too, so check for individual amenities.
Beach side of 30A
These sit on the Gulf side of 30A, so you reach the sand without crossing the highway. Gated High Pointe has five four-story buildings, a resort-style pool, and Crabby Steve’s beach bar, and its association sets a three-night minimum. Water’s Edge is at the Rosemary Beach end, and Sandy Shores is beside the HOA’s beach access. All three are outside the Seacrest Beach HOA.
Old Seacrest and Seabreeze
Old Seacrest and Seabreeze, west of Alys Beach, suit groups interested in a house without HOA rules. The houses there typically have their own pool. County walkovers reach the beach but have no public parking, and Alys Beach’s town center is about a 30-minute walk.

What you get with a Seacrest Beach vacation rental

Staying within the Seacrest Beach development makes it easy to build a vacation around the community itself. Spend the morning at the lagoon pool, catch the tram to the Gulf, then walk or bike to nearby restaurants and town centers for dinner.

The lagoon pool

The community's 12,000-square-foot lagoon pool is at the center of Seacrest Beach, with a fountain, poolside cafe, and nearby amphitheater. Registered guests need valid HOA wristbands to use it.

Crabby Steve's on the sand

Crabby Steve's at High Pointe has an ocean view. You can walk there for lunch or dinner without giving up your beach day.

A complimentary beach tram

Five tram routes serve the community. Walk to a designated stop and call for pickup. The tram takes registered guests to the beach access and lagoon.

Deeded beach access

Access the community’s 240-foot stretch of private, deeded beach across 30A at Sunset Beach. Walk the boardwalk or take the tram instead of carrying beach gear across the road. There's a restroom at the northeast corner.

Peddlers 30A and The Village

In The Village of South Walton, you can walk or bike to restaurants, shops, covered pavilions, a fire pit, and even enjoy live entertainment. Try local favorites like Ticheli's pizza or Charlie’s donuts.

Bike the Timpoochee Trail

Rent bikes in The Village and follow the paved 30A path toward Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach.

Walk to Alys Beach

A 10- to 15-minute walk west, Alys Beach's white masonry streets borrow from Antigua in Guatemala, Bermuda, and Morocco. Young kids can splash in the free fountain by the amphitheater.

Spend Sunday at Rosemary Beach

Rosemary Beach's Barrett Square anchors its town center with restaurants, shops, and the weekly 30A Farmers' Market every Sunday morning. Families love dining on Pescado's rooftop, which is open until 3 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.

Seacrest Beach vacation rental FAQs

Straight answers to what people ask us most.

What airport should you fly into?

+
Northwest Florida Beaches International (ECP) is about a 30-minute drive from Seacrest. Destin–Fort Walton Beach (VPS) is about an hour and 15 minutes.

How much does a vacation rental in Seacrest Beach cost?

+
The median rental here costs $303 a night for a house or $118 a night for a condo. Seacrest vacation rentals are commonly houses that sleep 10 or more. For a couple, a studio condo in the Village of South Walton is the smaller option.

What is the cheapest month to visit Seacrest Beach?

+
January is the cheapest month to visit, at a median of $209 a night.

Do Seacrest Beach rentals come with the lagoon pool and the tram?

+
Only rentals within the Seacrest Beach HOA include the lagoon pool. However, surrounding developments such as The Village of South Walton, the Inn at Seacrest Beach, The Alexander, and Treetop Village all have tram and deeded beach access. These developments also have their own amenities. Verify with the owner what is included.

Is Seacrest Beach dog friendly?

+
No, the beach is not dog friendly. Some Seacrest rentals are pet-friendly, but dogs aren't allowed in the lagoon pool area and its amphitheater. For a run, Frank Brown Park in Panama City Beach, about 20 minutes away, has three fenced dog play areas.

Is Seacrest Beach a good place to visit with kids?

+
Yes. Children 12 and under need someone 18 or older with them at the HOA's lagoon pool and on its tram. Inlet Beach Regional Access has county lifeguards from March through October, and Frank Brown Park has four separate play areas.

Should I stay in Seacrest Beach, Rosemary Beach, or Alys Beach?

+
Seacrest Beach is a good option if your group needs space. Rentals here run to large group houses, and from the HOA's streets the town centers at Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach are each a 15-minute walk or less. Stay in Rosemary Beach if you'd rather live in a town center than walk to one. Its European architecture provides a truly unique feel. Alys Beach is a quieter, upscale community with cobblestone streets and bright-white buildings.
