You can do that and more at Springhill Suites. And it’s just a short walk along a boardwalk to put your toes in the sand, set up a chair, and frolic in the Gulf of America. The all-suite hotel has 161 units and a host of amenities, including Beach House Social, a casual but classy restaurant showcasing Gulf-to-table seafood. And for a change of pace from the beach, the pool is spectacular.

Santa Rosa RV Resort

Some folks want to pull up, park their rig and plug in. Santa Rosa RV Resort is not your everyday camper park. It looks out over Santa Rosa Sound and includes a private beach and a fishing pier that juts 100 yards out on the water. There’s more: a heated pool, a covered gathering area with a fire pit, even a fenced-in dog park. Located on the main drag of Navarre, Santa Rosa RV Resort is only 2 miles from the beach — an easy-breezy bike ride across the Navarre Beach Causeway. You can find several other RV parks in Florida’s Most Relaxing Place.

Vacation Rental Homes For Big Groups (and Smaller Ones Too)

Navarre Beach boasts a wealth of rental homes. Need to sleep eight or 10? We have several places to choose from. How about room for 20? Endless Summer and Big Daddy’s will have your group wallowing in waterfront luxury. For the ultimate, there’s the No Shoes house, a plush, 9-bedroom, 9.5-bath getaway that can accommodate up to 30 guests. Located directly across the street from the Gulf, this spacious home features a heated private pool, game room, outdoor ping pong table, and parking for 14. Our destination also has smaller vacation homes — like quaint bungalows in historic downtown Milton that are within walking distance of restaurants and craft breweries.

Vacation Condos on the Beach

For panoramic views of the beach and beyond, you can hardly do better than a stay in a condo at the 20-story Beach Colony Resort on Navarre Beach. The resort usually has more than 20 condos for rent — either 2 bedrooms/2 bath, or 3 bedrooms/3 bath. You’ll have access to a large, kidney shaped pool, two tennis courts and two pickleball courts, and beach chair service. And get this: All of the units have Gulf-front views.
