South Walton Vacation Rentals

Planning a vacation to South Walton? Ocean Reef Resorts has a large selection of vacation rentals in the South Walton area, including condos and homes.  

With a relaxed, laid-back attitude, the beaches of South Walton recall simpler times along a beautiful, twenty-six-mile stretch of coast known as scenic Scenic 30A. The area is known for its family-friendly rental homes, in contrast with the high-rise condominiums you'll find in the neighboring towns. The calming, slower pace of South Walton Beach is highlighted by gorgeous walking paths, lined with Loblolly pines and dotted with rare coastal dune lakes.

In terms of water activities, the area has everything, from boating to fishing, and Yolo boarding to kayak rentals. There are also six different scenic golf courses to choose from, and the Florida State Parks that surround the area are perfect for biking, hiking, or picnicking. When you've worked up an appetite from all that activity, you'll find a wide variety of restaurants. Many feature fresh local seafood and are located directly on the beach for scenic dining.

Make your way to the beaches of South Walton, and you'll see why Frommer's named this location one of the Top Destinations. Contact us today to find out more about staying in South Walton, or to get more information about any of our Destin vacation rentals.
