5 stars!    May 18, 2025

5 ⭐️ Ideal Spot for Families and Friends in Rosemary Beach! We had an amazing stay with three couples and four kids, and this home was absolutely perfect for our group! The layout made it easy for everyone to have their own space while still enjoying time together. The location is unbeatable: walking distance to the beach, shops, restaurants, and everything else Rosemary has to offer. The convenience made traveling with kids a breeze, and the service from the host was exceptional friendly, responsive, and helpful every step of the way. We felt completely at home and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommended for families or groups looking for a relaxing, perfectly located beach getaway!

This home was a perfect, private location for a girls trip. We fit 12 girls more than comfortably. Beach access was beautiful and chairs were set up for us with umbrellas and tables upon arrival to beach. We were also able to walk into town. 30A escapes was very responsive via texts with any questions I had regarding our stay. I will definitely be coming back!

Mother/Daughter Trip    Apr 27, 2025

review star


We do a mother/daughter trip every year. This year we kept it simple b/c one of my daughters is 6 mths pregnant and we had my 73 yr old mom. This was a perfect location. Less than a 10 min walk to beach to your own private section of beach. Easy drive to either Destin or Panama City Beach Pier Park or just walking down 30A to different restaurants and shops.

30A Escapes .com's reply:

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that Barefoot Sands was perfect for your mother-daughter trip, accommodating both your pregnant daughter and your elderly mother. The proximity to the beach and the convenience of nearby attractions seems to have made for an enjoyable and hassle-free getaway. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We look forward to welcoming you and your family again in the future.

The house perfectly fit our family of 14. Plenty of kitchen items but need more cereal bowls and spoons. The guest bathroom is actually in the hall next to bedroom, but not a problem. Pool and hot tub were awesome. Great large patio around pool with lots of seating. Loved having 6 bikes and the chairs and umbrellas. Short walk to beach.
