About the host
Hosted by Kelli
We visited 30A back in 2017 and fell in love with the area. The crystal clear water of the Gulf, the quaint shops and the delicious restaurants within walking distance make this one of our favorite vacation spots. We love that Gulf Place has a gated beach access for its guests, so we don't have to worry about the crowds. We also love having the convenience of wonderful restaurants and shopping within walking distance.
