Santa Rosa Beach One of America’s Best Towns for the Holidays

Locals have long known Santa Rosa Beach is a special beach town that enjoys miles of sugar white sand beaches, hundreds of acres of natural lands within four state parks, rare coastal dune lakes and one of the state’s designated scenic byways, Highway 30A. Now, Travel & Leisure magazine has discovered this best kept secret.

After being recognized as one of “America’s Best Little Beach Towns” by Travel & Leisure Magazine, Santa Rosa Beach was recently named among Travel & Leisure’s “America’s Best Towns for the Holidays!”

As the summary mentions, Santa Rosa Beach ranks well for beach vacations, family getaway and boutiques and is great for those who do not want gain those extra holiday pounds.

One of the best ways to shop and stay healthy during the holidays is to bike the 30A Bike Path (aka the Timpoochee Trail). This 19-mile paved bike path extends the full length of Hwy 30A from Dune Allen through Inlet Beach. Bikers will traverse the area’s beach neighborhoods, including Grayton Beach, WaterColor, Seaside and Seagrove Beach, which are filled with locally-owned businesses ranging from boutiques and galleries to sidewalk cafés and award-winning restaurants. The best part is that as part of Newman-Dailey’s Gift Card program, one adult bike rental from Black Beard’s Bike Rental Shop is included with each night of your stay.

Rentals are still available for the holidays so explore our Santa Rosa Beach vacation rentals online or call one of our friendly vacation specialists at 1-800-225-7625.

Happy Holidays!
