A Piece of Heaven on Earth

A Guest from Houston, TX United States
Apr 2025
This property is amazing. The views are amazing and unlike any other place we have stayed on 30A. The beaches are well maintained and not very crowded. The house is very clean and well maintained. We spent so much time on the deck... The sunsets from the deck are second to none. The management company were so helpful with all of our needs. We felt safe at all times. We consider "A Shore Thing" our 2nd home. This property is fantastic... We will be coming back many times....
Manager Response
Gordon, thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review. We are so so happy to hear you have found a home-away-from-home in Ashore Thing. With a great Gulf front location, this home has unparalleled panoramic views of the Emerald Coast- we are glad you enjoyed it. Let us know when you're ready to return - we would love to welcome you back soon!

Location, Location, Location!

Leslie C. from Nashville, TN United States
Jul 2024
This house is great for 2 families. We went with our best friends that have kids that grew up with mine. Our last two are going off to college next month so it was a great place to celebrate and have our last trip together before everyone is spread throughout the country at different schools.The open floor plan was great for the boys to play games and spread out while the girls could chill out on the back porch right in front of the beautiful white sand beaches and clear water. Beach Front location cannot be beat! Just a walk down the back stairs and you are on the beach in an uncrowded area. We could come in and out for lunch, snacks, or just a beach break with zero effort getting back to the house. No cars. Bikes, or golf carts needed, except to go to dinner. There are 2 bikes provided if you’d like to use them. We loved hanging out on the back porch after a day at the beach to cool off before dinner. Ashorething is close to many great restaurants in Rosemary Beach, Inlet, Seagrove, and Grayton beaches.The team and especially our contact Shaun at Royal Destinations were on top of keeping in touch with us for any information we would need. Also, our questions were answered promptly. Fantastic customer service!There is only 1 thing I’d suggest. The house is vey hard to find at night for Ubers or door dashers. We even passed it a few times after being out because there are no markers around or near the driveway. A sign, reflectors, or a flag would help. However the privacy is great and this is not a complaint, just a thought.I’d give Ashorething a 5 out of 5 stars and would definitely stay there again.
Manager Response
Leslie, we are so happy to hear you and your family had a nice stay at Ashore Thing. Ashore Thing is a great home with a hard-to-beat Gulf front location in Seacrest Beach. We are glad you enjoyed it. We will certainly pass your suggestion for lighting on to our team. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Ashore Thing is a Sure Thing! Amazing location & well-kept home!

Gordon A. from Houston, TX United States
May 2024
"Ashore Thing" is a “sure thing”. We love this property. We have been coming to the 30A area for 4 years and this was the best accommodations and experience we have had. As they say... "location, location, location" is the key. This well-maintained one-story home is right on the beach. It has a very spacious front yard with plenty of room of paved parking. The deck on the beach side of the house is huge and very well maintained. The deck was the best feature of the house. The deck chairs and chaise lounges were very comfortable and sturdy. They were great for sunbathing and watching sunsets on the deck. The deck has a wonderful, covered picnic table that is great for lunches and dinners. We used the outdoor grill to cook out on the deck several nights. We loved sitting out on the beach or on the deck for the gorgeous sunsets. The sand and beach are spectacular and very well kept. Lots of Pelicans flew over the house and deck all day. It was fun watching them fishing in the surf. We saw dolphins and other marine wildlife in the surf from the beach and deck. The kitchen is well laid out and designed and a pleasure to cook in. There is a large dining area and bar area with seating for everyone. The TV/Audio Visual System in the house is impressive and very easy to use. We loved the large couch, and it was very comfortable for binge watching on the very large TV in the living room. All of the roomy bedrooms and bathrooms are well designed and a pleasure to stay in and use. The beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was of high quality. The house was VERY clean and well maintained. We felt very safe at this property. The complimentary bicycles, beach chairs and umbrella set up were a nice touch. The Royal Destinations staff were always very interested and helpful. They were a delight to work with. They were very eager to make our experience the best we’d ever had .... and they did. We will be coming back to this property many times.... It fe

Great House and Location

Robert F. from Dublin, GA United States
Sep 2022
The house was really nice and in a great location. Beautiful beach goes without saying and the even the rare front lawn was pretty impressive and lush. Nice well appointed kitchen (we cook a lot), great outdoor shower to wash the sand off, and plenty of shade and seating on the impressive deck. Very few downsides, Beds were not the most comfortable and if you have older people in your party the steps to the beach might be a bit much for them but that's about the only negatives.

Would Stay Here Again in a Heartbeat!

Kristin S. from Rogers, AR United States
Jul 2022
The house is fantastic! Views from all main areas are incredible, and the walk to the beach is much shorter than the ones we've stayed in previously! The house was well equipped with everything you need, and rooms are very comfortable. We had a wonderful family vacation with four different families staying together and it worked out very well! Tons of room for storing your clothes and they've thought of everything you might need. Just bring your toothbrush and swim suit!
Manager Response
Kristin, we are so glad to hear you enjoyed your recent stay at Ashore Thing! With impeccable views of the Gulf, Ashore Thing has a location that is hard to beat. We are happy to hear the home was stocked to your liking and you were able to comfortably make yourself at home. Come back and drink in the views with us again soon!

Wonderful stay at Ashore Thing

Ann B. from Searcy, AR United States
Jun 2020
The house was immaculate and vacation-friendly! The views were amazing, we spied dolphins each day! Having our own bit of private beach was such a blessing. We loved the open floor plan for the common areas. There was plenty of parking for our vehicles, and plenty of storage and closet space. We loved the private outdoor shower just outside the large laundry room. We will recommend this to our friends!
Manager Response
Hi Ann, Thank you for reviewing your recent stay! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time taking in the panoramic Gulf views and your daily dolphin sightings! Please let us know if we're able to offer assistance in the future - we hope to welcome you back soon. Sincerely, The Royal Destinations Team

only one major problem-no wifi for the stay. attempts were made to fix but were unsuccessful. one minor problem-no air conditioning the last day. Royal Destinations attempted to help and were professional and polite. But were unsuccessful in their efforts.
Manager Response
Thank you Tom for your review! We hope you enjoyed your stay at Ashore Thing with your own private beach access and being close to many restaurants and shopping! Ashore Thing has a beautiful wrap around porch for you to sit and relax while grilling out during the sunset or wake up early with a cup of coffee and watch the sunrise. Thank you for your patience while we worked on the WiFi. We were able to get the WiFi back up and running as well as fix the air conditioner. We hope you come back and stay with us again!

We'll be back!

Autumn E. from Jacksonville, AR United States
Jun 2019
We loved our stay at Ashore Thing! Everything was perfect! The house is beautiful, love the layout and the views from the house are amazing! We had 5 adults, 2 teenagers, and 2 little ones and never felt like we were on top of one another! The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals at the house. I would only fix two things: 1) There are no lights on the back porch, a light would be nice. 2) The bedrooms need blackout curtains! We were awake with the sun every day! We like to sleep in or at least until 8 on vacation and that did not happen one time. Other than that we had the best time and plan to book again for next year!
Manager Response
Thank you so much for the nice review on Ashore Thing ! This is one of our favorite gulf front homes. Its open, one level floor plan makes it comfortable to multiple families. The best part is the view of the gulf, which can be seem from all parts of the common areas. The owners keep the kitchen well stocked and love to hear guest feedback.. That being said, we will certainly pass along the feedback for the back porch lights and blackout curtains. We hope to see you again next year!

Perfect Home

Amy S. from Houston, TX United States
May 2019
We have stayed here 5 years in a row, and we could not be happier. It is a little far away from restaurants, etc. if you are walking, but that is not a problem for us.The bedrooms are perfect for two families or a group of friends. We love the back that opens up right to the beach. The property managers are very good and deal with things very promptly. We have had a wonderful experience every year. Thank you for opening your home.
Manager Response
Hi Ms S! Thank you for your review of Ashore Thing! This is one of our favorite beach front homes and we are so glad you had a great experience. You can't beat the view, the location on 30A and the convenience of walking right out to the beach. We hope to see you again soon!

Awesome House!

Brandon L. from Alpharetta, GA United States
Apr 2019
We had an absolute perfect stay. First, the home was thoughtfully designed and furnished to meet all of our needs. Second, the home has unrivaled views and it is on a perfect stretch of 30A. Close to the restaurants and shops, yet far enough away to get lots of privacy on the beach. I would stay here again in a heartbeat if we get the opportunity.
Manager Response
Hi Mr. L! Thank you so much for your review. We are ecstatic that you had a perfect stay at Ashore Thing! We agree, the views of the Gulf and location on 30A are amazing. The privacy of the back deck and beach just down the stairs make this home the perfect getaway for creating lifelong memories with family and friends. We hope to see you back soon!

Ashore Thing is Amazing

Ryan S. from Edmond, OK United States
Sep 2018
We loved almost everything about Ashore Thing! We made so many great memories there. There were 8 of us (5 adults and 3 children) and we had plenty of room. Spent most of our time on the beach or back deck admiring the views. The views were amazing! It might be time to update some of the furniture in the living room, other than that we loved it! Hopefully we get to stay at Ashore Thing again!
Manager Response
Thank You For Your Review!! The furniture will be professionally cleaned and if it doesn't look good there will be new furniture in the living room! We agree the views of the beach from the house are stunning and the beach is literally your backyard! This is the perfect house for families to make memories!! Ashore Thing sleeps 10 comfortably! Royal Destinations looks forward to seeing you again very soon!

Excellent week in an excellent house

Beckett H. from Oxford, MS Unknown
Aug 2018
Our group consisted of 6 adults and 5 children ages 3-8. We've been taking family beach trips for over 30 years and everyone agreed this place was among the top 3 or 4 we've rented. Not a huge space but very well laid out and appointed with a minimum of kitsch. Outstanding view, very close to beach. The stairs down (and back up!) are long but the height amplifies the view. Kitchen has great counters, good pots and pans, plenty of utensils and tableware. Knives were mediocre, but anyone who rents a beach place and likes to cook in, knows to bring a couple of sharp knives from home.A fourth bath would have been ideal but floor plan was still good. Whoever sleeps in the room without a bath goes across the hall and tends to share with however many children you have in the double bunk room. Bunk room functioned very well. No windows to let in light, so instead of first up the children were often among the last.Comfortable beds, big ocean-facing deck (though maybe a little short on shade), outdoor hot water shower were some other plusses.The beach was crowded in comparison to places along the north Gulf that seriously restrict building heights and condo size. However, if you enjoy going out in the evenings, having more people in the area means there'll be more restaurants, bars, and other diversions.All in all, an excellent week in an excellent house.

Best house and location out of 6 beach vacations!

A Guest from Dayton, OH United States
Jun 2018
Walk in to immediate, dramatic beach view even from front door! Grandparents could actually sit inside or on porch and watch ocean. Great open floor layout. Worked well for 6 adults (38 to 72) and 6 kids (1.5 to 10). Beach was not crowded at all. We were able to use a canopy. Could leave things at bottom of stairs at end of day. Maintenance responded to outside water problem (which turned out to be a false alarm) within 15 minutes!! Only issue was red flags on the beach for several days. Didn't expect gulf to be so rough! Go to Fonville Press for coffee. Kids loved Sugar Shack.

We loved our stay at this home, located right on the beach! The open floor plan allowed for beach views in all the common areas. There were lots of hooks for towels and beach gear, the fastest clothes dryer on the planet. The kitchen was pretty well-stocked and had plenty of room for multiple cooks. It also had a lot of pantry storage. The few needs we had, Royal responded immediately. This rental management company is so helpful, and always goes above and beyond! While the furnishings are super-posh, everything here is very comfortable and it met all of our needs! The view was the best part!!:-)

Love AShore Thing!

Dax E. from Houston, TX United States of America
Jun 2018
We went to AShore Thing for our family vacation. We had 3 couples and 2 kids. This was a great house right on the beach! Our portion of the beach was much less crowded than down near the condos and public access! The well stocked spacious kitchen allows for some great cooking. The rooms are nicely separated to allow for privacy. We loved the large deck, shaded area, and outdoor shower. The only small issues we had were the bedroom blinds do not block the light. The sun woke us up every morning before 7am! Other than that, it would be nice to have more than 1 kitchen towel. We had to go buy some at Walmart. You definitely need to bring your own beach towels! The hooks for bathing suits and towels in the utility room and in the hall were perfect! We liked this house and would stay there again!

Great place to relax. Home gets 5 stars across the board. Suggestions for improvement: Beds/bedding could be better quality. Window treatments in the bedrooms need work - every room we had to temporarily hang blankets to block out morning sun. That said, we have booked it again for 11 days in September!

Woke up to picturebook sunrises, listening to the waves roll in

A Guest from Columbia, MO United States
Jan 2018
It has been our experience reviews and pictures rarely match our expectations. In this instance, not only were our lofty expectations met but exceeded. We are a loud, busy group. However, each morning we opened the sliding glass doors, allowed the sounds of the ocean to enter the unit, drank our coffee and absorbed the sunrise in almost complete silence. It was far too beautiful to interrupt with words.The management company was outstanding. The unit was in terrific shape. The floorplan accommodated our three families well (5 adults/2 teens). The central living area is well suited for gatherings. The home directly overlooks the beach along the entire large kitchen, dining, living, and master bedroom with direct access to the beach from the attached wrap around patio/deck.The location was ideal. The beach was quiet and beautiful. The ocean is gorgeous in this area - multiple shades of blue customarily reserved for Caribbean destinations. Even outside the landscaping and layout allowed privacy. The country highway in front of the property was busy, but you wouldn't know it inside the unit or on deck. The home sits back in a large lot, and the front door is at least a hundred feet from the road. Upscale shopping, groceries, and dining were no more than 10 to 20 minutes drive in either direction.Next time we head to the area, we'll look for this property again.

Beautiful Home

A Guest from Little Rock, 72207 United States
Sep 2017
The house was very clean and nice. The layout and floor plan was very well thought out. The many hooks along hallways and in the laundry room! A++ for hanging all the towels and wet gear daily. Great outdoor shower. Loved the updated amenities and the bicycles that came with the home. The 2 things I would pass along as the only cons for this property are; the open floor plan and beautiful terrazzo floors make for a loud sound level with a group(or kids), and the modern open lighting is great for sunny Florida except in the bedrooms. There could be better shades on the bedroom windows and some small ones have none. Other than those two small issues this property was fabulous, beach was beautiful as always on 30a. Would recommend this house.
Manager Response
I am thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Ashore Thing!! The views of the beach as soon as you walk in the door is beautiful and very relaxing. The house has windows along the the gulf so that you can see the beach throughout the day as you relax inside or outside of the house. Thank you for the feedback on the window treatments. We will definitely mention this to the homeowner. Perhaps more rugs would be an alternative to the sound. We will mention this to the homeowner as well. The rooms are also nice and cozy and spread throughout the house. Thank you for your review of this amazing beachfront property!

Great house, beautiful beach!

Annual Mother's Day Vacay

Brittany W. from N/A, CO United States
May 2017
Beyond pleased!!! The view right when you first walk in took my breathe away. We had 4 families (one took the twin bunk room) and we really had plenty of room for everyone! The kids had an amazing time for so many different reason, space to play and location being the main reasons! Being able to shower outside was easy clean up for parents and fun for the kids. The view was just perfection. The attention to detail was impressive too! Royal Destinations really impressed us with the Aveda products and the presentation of the rooms/bathrooms. I would look into replacing the grill, the bottom was pretty much rusted away and only one of the burners work. Thats easy to fix and wouldnt ever stop us from coming back. We appreciate the hospitality and thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home. We have found our Annual Mother's Day home! See you next year.
Manager Response
Hello and thank you so much for the nice review! We are so happy that you enjoyed this perfect beach home. Ashore Thing has the BEST view on 30A and the beach is private so there are no crowds!! We just made the change to Aveda so we are happy to hear that you like the products and presentation! The open floor plan allows for plenty of room for the family and the panoramic views are just breathtaking. Thanks so much for the feedback on the grill. We will certainly suggest replacement to the homeowner. Thanks again and we can't wait to see you next year!

Fiesta Rehearsal dinner

Kelli W. from Palmyra, TN United States
May 2017
My son got married May 6th in Seaside, with Cinco DE Mayo the day before his wedding we decided on a Fiesta on the beach for his rehersal dinner; only it was too windy so we had to set up tables on the beautiful balcony overlooking the beach.The party was wonderful but, beyond the party this was such a wonderful place to continue our family vacation after the wedding. The open layout of the kitchen, dinning room, and living room was amazing! And let me just take a minute to emphasize the kitchen it was supplied with everything we needed and the storage space was wonderful. My family and I have decided to make this our go-to yearly destination house! I would not change anything except maybe next time a longer stay!
Manager Response
Hello Mrs. W! Thanks for the nice review! Congratulations on your son's wedding and we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay a Ashore Thing! We are glad to hear that the rehearsal dinner went smoothly and that the house was well stocked and spacious. The panoramic gulf view makes it the perfect place to have a fiesta or to relax after a big wedding. We look forward to your return to Ashore Thing!

visit to Ashore Thing

A Guest from Atlanta, GA United States
Sep 2016
We had an amazing time at this beautiful beach cottage. Unlike so many other "on the beach" houses on 30a where you can see the beach but have to walk quite some ways to a beach access, this one is truly ON the beach. The house was clearly renovated recently and it is beautiful inside. The only caution is that the flooring is quite smooth and gets a bit slippery when wet, and since at a beach house there's no way to avoid some water being tracked in, one of our party took a hard fall. (I would be careful of having elderly people in the party.) But that doesn't change the fact that we absolutely LOVED this place and had an amazing time!
Manager Response
Hello and thank you so much for the nice review! Ashore Thing is truly one of a kind. The view is breathtaking and the modern renovation and furnishings give it a clean and crisp feel. We are so sorry about the slick floors! Perhaps we can add some additional rugs to create more traction in high traffic areas. We will discuss with the homeowner. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Ashore Thing. We hope you come and stay with us again!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Ashore thing. You cannot beat the view!! Beach access was perfect, and it was great having the bikes as well. My only negative is the sofa is old and dingy. We would definitely stay again.

We loved our experience at ashore thing!! The house was clean beautiful and perfectly located on the beach ?? There was a rock formation in the water just offshore and we saw abundant sea life there. The children really enjoyed that. We would recommend this property to any family. Very comfortable and user-friendly.

Ashore Thing was Ashore Thing!

Trey W. from Nashville, TN United States
Apr 2016
Ashore Thing was the perfect place for our vacation. The house was clean, uncluttered and had everything we needed. The house is very spacious and all one level, so it was great for my mom who couldn't do steps. The views were unbelievable. We felt like we had our own private beach! It was a little chilly when we were there, but it was perfect on the back deck. We spent most of the days on the deck and felt like we were right by the water. The location was great and convenient to many shops and restaurants. Royal Beach Rentals was great to work with. We will be back!
Manager Response
Thank you so much for the review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your spring break vacation! Ashore thing is a delightful property.

Gorgeous views

Bayard L. from TX US
Jan 2016
The house is right on the beach with spectacular views! Plenty of room. The feel of the house is more mid-century modern than beach cottage. The huge windows and sliding doors give panoramic views that are fabulous. The outdoor shower has hot water and is right beside the door to the laundry area - very convenient with children! The rental management company was terrific! Very responsive, helpful, and easy to reach even during the week between Christmas and New Year's.We would definitely return!

Wonderful Vacation time from a Family from Austin, Texas

Stephanie E. from Austin, TX United States
Jul 2015
Our stay at Ashore Thing was fantastic. We rented the house for 2 weeks and were delighted over the location and the house. The house is spacious, clean and modern. The view of the gulf from the house is spectacular and the best attribute of the house. We loved getting the bikes, chairs and umbrellas as part of our rental. I would recommend the owner add area rugs to dining room, bedrooms and side seating area. I would also recommend they close in the outdoor shower for privacy. We wanted to bring our little dog down with us and offered a sizable deposit and additional rent however the owner declined. We would likely come back year after year if the owners allowed pets. I would happily recommend this house to family and friends.
Manager Response
Thank you for your review and all "five" rating. Ashore Thing has the "View"; comfortable rockers looking out the glass doors and plenty of seating along the large back deck for enjoying meals and a perfect sunset! We look forward to seeing you again along Highway 30-A.

Perfect Vacation Spot

A Guest from Atlanta, GA United States

In summary, it was an exquisite experience. The house is comfortable, well maintained, picturesque, and the beach view is simply the best. Easy access to Rosemary Beach shops/restaurants (our kids loved Sugar Shack). This was by far one of the most relaxing vacations we have ever taken; wish we could have stayed longer... A huge thanks to the owners of this property for making it available for rent!

Julie C. from Kingwood, TX United States

This gorgeous home housed 8 of us and a baby. We had a blast. It is missing nothing. The location is perfect. Being right on the quiet beach with the fabulous deck...outstanding. We have rented many houses on 30A and this one was tops by far. And the view..couldn't get any better. Having the beach chairs and the bikes to ride to Rosemary was super too. I hope we have the opportunity to rent this house again in the future.

Ashore Thing - late July 2014

Overall, a good experience. There were a could of minor issues with the house however. The outside shower's water comes from well water and the well pump failed and was not repaired while we were there. The bunk beds also had some integrity issues that were addressed by the management company immediately.

My girlfriends and I had an incredible time at Ashore Thing! The location was perfect, and the beach wasn't busy in front of the house. There's also a surprisingly large front yard! We did have an issue with a breaker the first day, but maintenance came out and fixed it right away. The outdoor shower was AWESOME, and there was plenty of space in the house and on the back porch. We had a wonderful time and hope to come back in the future!
