Rosemary Beach Rentals
August 16th, 2010 Categories: Rosemary Beach Living, Seaside Living, South Walton Living
Rosemary Beach Rentals are properties very worthy of consideration for your next beach vacation getaway. Rosemary Beach is a 107 acres gulf front development on the very eastern end of CR-30A. Like its sister community, Seaside, Rosemary Beach was founded in the principles of New Urbanism and Traditional Neighborhood Development making Rosemary Beach Rentals appealing from a community standpoint.
Rosemary Beach Rentals also reflect the newness of the community as none of the homes are over 15 years old. The architectural styles of the Rosemary Beach Rentals are influenced by St. Augustine, Charleston, New Orleans and the West Indies. The streets are pedestrian friendly with footpaths and boardwalks. Rosemary Beach Rentals insures that cars are given secondary status and foot and bike movement throughout the community is placed at a premium.
Another reason to consider Rosemary Beach Rentals is the mixed use nature of the community such that you can dine, shop, rent a bike, bank, etc. There is a unique town square that houses some very unique shops and restaurants. Two of the newest are Paradis, a small but excellent fine dining restaurant with a comfortable and inviting full service lounge and La Crema, inspired by the tapas and chocolate shops of Madrid and Barcelona – very cool atmosphere, food offering and wine.
Of course Rosemary Beach Rentals also features other dining venues that while not as new – still stand up exceedingly well to the test of time. This includes Cafe Onano, very tiny and intimate with wonderful outside dining featuring northern Italian cuisine. Another temptation to try Rosemary Beach Rentals is the diversified Wild Olives. They feature casual and gourmet foods to enjoy on site or to take home.
There is so much more to cover that makes Rosemary Beach Rentals a must consideration when you are taking a beach vacation. I will explore more of these features in a future blog post. (Click on all pictures to Enlarge)….

Watercolor Rentals

If you are considering a vacation to Destin and/or CR-30A, then Watercolor Rentals is certainly an option that you should consider. The Watercolor property sits on 499 acres and 1400 feet of sugar white beach front. Nearly 50% of the space is devoted to open space and preservation areas which helps make Watercolor Rentals a unique experience.
Watercolor Rentals also makes sense from an architectural and community feel standpoint. The homes in Watercolor have a classic, Southern architectural feel to them with use of natural landscape accentuated. Watercolor has received the Award of Excellence from the Urban Land Institute, a nonprofit education and research institute with focus on the use of land in order to enhance the total environment.
Another fun aspect for those who chose Watercolor Rentals is the option to participate in outdoor activities while staying on the grounds of Watercolor – there is kayaking, canoeing, sailing and biking. The water sports are compliments of Western Lake, a 220 coastal dune lake, that borders the property.
Another relatively new addition to the Watercolor experience that make Watercolor Rentals worth considering is the addition of Chan’s Wine World to the commercial mix of tenants. Conveniently located at the corner of CR-30A and Watercolor Boulevard, Chan’s offers a retail wine and cheese shop along with pizzas in its front room but opens to a full dining experience in the adjoining room. Outside dining rounds out a unique experience for those who chose Watercolor Rentals.
There is so much more to add as to why you should consider Watercolor Rentals – like the outstanding Fish Out of Water Restaurant overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, the Watercolor Workout Studio, the Olympic size heated pool overlooking the gulf and so much more. I will post more in depth information at a later date such that I think you will agree Watercolor Rentals will be at the top of your consideration for beach vacation rentals.
