We’d be the first to say that all the Emerald Coast beaches are world-class, but like any locals,
we certainly do have our favorites. In this post, we wanted to take you through
a few of the highlights from each beach in the area, so that you can better
select where you’d like to stay. We manage properties in all of these areas,
and we live in Destin, so we’d like to think we know our stuff!
Santa Rosa Beach (located on 30A, about 10 minutes from Sandestin)

Miramar Beach
On a sliver of land between the Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, Miramar Beach feels like the
classic, cozy beach towns of your childhood. Scenic coast roads, surf shops,
beachfront homes with wide decks and verandas, condos with panoramic views of
the Gulf of Mexico—you’ll get that warm, nostalgic feel no matter where you are
in this town.
But just because it
feels like a town from another time doesn’t mean you need to feel trapped in
1955: Miramar Beach is outfitted with all the latest modern amenities, from
fine dining to water sports. It’s even home to the nation’s largest designer
outlet center, the Silver Sands Factory Stores.
Have Travel Memories offers accommodations across Miramar Beach to
suit any tastes. Drink your morning coffee while watching the Gulf of Mexico
every morning. Bask in the sunlight on your wraparound deck every afternoon.
Head out to fabulous restaurants every night. It’s your vacation—make the
memories you want!

Sandestin (located in Miramar Beach)
There’s always something to do in Sandestin! From championship
golf courses and world-class tennis courts to spotless pools and AAA Four
Diamond restaurants, this golf
and beach resort is the ultimate in affordable luxury vacations.
Seagoing yachts stream in and out of the Marina in Baytowne
Village, hailing from Bahamas, the Virgin Islands, and other international
destinations. Meanwhile, the Grand Boulevard is thronged with shoppers, diners,
theatergoers—and even zip-liners!—on their way to a plethora of excellent
entertainment options. Dinner-and-dance cruises head into the harbor with guests
in search of a good time, and onshore, the clubs open up for natives and
visitors alike to let loose and party into the night.
