Casa al Fin has a unique second floor large airy living room area with comfy sofas and chairs, large screen TV and complete with game table and games. This room is surrounded by windows and views. The gourmet kitchen features a high-end 6 burner gas stove with griddle and double ovens, instant hot, wet bar, separate ice-maker unit, large granite surfaces, counter seating for 4, and a sitting area great for sipping cocktails while enjoying the view through a giant feature window overlooking the courtyard and down Town Hall Road.

Beach Wedding Weekend

Review Submitted: 11/27/11
My husband and I stayed here along with three other couples for a wedding a few weeks ago. We were blown away by how beautiful the property was! We were amazed by the pictures we saw before coming to the house, but even they could not capture how immaculate everything was. The bedrooms are more than spacious, the kitchen was beyond gorgeous, and the location could not be more perfect. My only regret is that we could not stay longer to enjoy all of the wonderful amenities this home has to offer! We toured several other homes around Rosemary Beach during all of the wedding festivities but none compared to Casa Al Fin! Everyone agreed that we would all love to stay again, hopefully in the near future. -Mr. Ray, thank you for making the rental process so easy and worry free. We've never had a process like this be so smooth and organized. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home with us. We were able to make great memories with our friends!

Our family spent a great weekend in fantastic accommodations! The pool was beautiful and the short walk to the beach was no problem. The house had all the ammenities one could want and plenty of space to relax, rest, and enjoy football games, The kitchen was amazing as we cooked breakfast each morning. On Sat. evening we had a "low country shrimp boil" as we had too many ball games to keep up with. It is a great place to go with other family members or a group of friends. I highly recommend this beautiful home.

We've visited Rosemary Beach for many years but have yet to find a home as accomodating and beautiful as Casa al Fin. We had three families, but plenty of space. The lay out is perfect, the decor is just what we wanted... understated elegance with every attention to detail. The location is ideal. Only a 5 minute walk to the beach and town. Our kids, ranging in age from 10-12, were able to venture out on their own to the beach and town, on foot or by bike. The owner and management company were extremely accomodating, professional and curtious. All bedrooms were nicely decorated and we were pleasantly suprised to see that all bedrooms had more space than appeared on the website! Our children enjoyed the spacious courtyard and carriage house as well. We highly recommend this property and hope to be back next year!

Ray is either the smartest man in Rosemary Beach or one lucky sonofagun. Why? Location, location, location. This was our 4th trip to) and proximity is the name of the game. Across 30A and you are too far away from the action. But Ray made sure he is across the street - literally across the street - from one of RB's pools. I could throw a seashell into it from one of his balconies. He is easy walking distance to all the shops on main street and the green for movie night. Now let's get to the house itself. The outdoor fireplace in the courtyard looks like something out of Sonoma's wine country. He has bikes and beach toys galore - major plus! The layout of the house is great. Super private upstairs bedroom. Kitchen was an absolute pleasure to cook in. Ice maker is a great bonus for coolers to the beach. No carriage house. Instead a beautiful screened-in porch just made for board games or a cigar. The wrap-around couch in the den is just made for afternoon naps. Dare u to lay on it for more than 10 mins and not fall asleep. An absolute gem of a place. We'll be back!!! Thanks Ray!
Owner response:Thanks for the great review! You were excellent guests and we will look forward to you returning to Casa al Fin next time!

Wow!! What an amazing place to spend your vacation!! From the reservation process to the concierge service, every 'i' was dotted and every 't' crossed. We have rented homes in Rosemary Beach for the past 6 summers, but this was the first time we have ever rented from an owner, and we were very impressed! The reservation process was so easy, and the owner was so accomodating. All the information we could possibly need for our stay was provided well in advance, and the concierge service was wonderful. Our bikes were waiting on us when we arrived, and the service even helped us out with a referral when we had car trouble. :-) Casa al Fin is simply incredible. The architecture is sublime......beautiful exposed wood beams and a multitude of windows.......wide open living space and every luxury you can imagine from comfortable furniture and relaxing showers to a separate icemaker perfect for filling up your beach cooler! We didn't get to enjoy the cozy firepit or the beautiful outdoor screened room because of the summer heat, but we would love to come back during a cooler season and spend some time in those spots. The layout of the home is perfect for families. There is plenty of room for privacy and family time too! And the proximity to the beach and the pool (just across the street) is so convenient for families with small children. We truly can't say enough about our week at Casa al Fin. We never wanted to leave!

Our family stayed at the Casa al Fin the week of Memorial Day. We had 7 adults and a one year old and the house worked out perfectly. It was large enough that everyone had there own space and we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. The outdoor balcony was great as well as the room on top of the garage (great place to hang out in the evenings with sofas, chairs and ceiling fan). The house is in a great location about a block and a half from the beach and the neighborhood pool was literally right across the street. The town square with all the shops and restaurants was also very close. The kitchen was also very nice with professional ranges which was great because we cooked a lot of meals at the house. We also used the outdoor grill which was also very nice. The owner was very helpful and responsive. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to spend some time in Rosemary Beach. I know we'll be back!

What a beautiful home! The pictures don't do it justice!! This was the perfect place to stay. When I arrived I was in awe at the beauty of the architecture and the special accents all around the house. It is very obvious a lot of thought went into the design and decorating of this home. The property was very clean and all the furniture super COMFORTABLE - I slept like a rock!! The location is awesome! A two minute walk to downtown Rosemary Beach and a 2 minute walk to the beautiful beach, not to mention a short drive to just about anywhere in the area. I am DEFINITELY coming back here and have already recommended it to friends.

Casa al Fin and Rosemary Beach are the perfect combination of style, class and luxury. The home is perfectly furnished and laid out to afford you and your guests a very memorable beach vacation. Casa al Fin offers wonderful views from all of the patios and outdoor space as well as a great private courtyard with built-in fire pit that is perfect for evening gatherings of wine, cheese and crackers. The environment of Rosemary Beach is simply breath-taking and it is very obvious the effort that was put in to create it and the continual effort made to keep it looking beautifu! Choose Casa al Fin - you will NOT be disappointed.
Owner response:Thanks very much for the great review! You were a great group of guests and it sounds like you have a really great time! Hope to see you next time!

We stayed over our Spring Break in March: five adults and three teenagers. We all loved it! Everything was just as we expected when we arrived, and the owner provided everything we needed. The extra screened room over the garage was a favorite hangout spot. The house is in a great location, a short walk from the beach and very close to one of the pools. I especially enjoyed riding bikes and running on the path that follows the main highway a short walk from the house. This was a fantastic house and location for our vacation with family and friends!
