Our family had one of the best vacations at this property. The house was amazing and beautifully decorated, it exceeded our expectations. The location is perfect for families with small children. We didn’t have to bring beach chairs, towels, beach toys or bikes, everything was provided. The proximity to the Big Chill was just a few steps away, there is so much to do there without having to drive anywhere. Our grandchildren had so much fun and we will cherish the memories that were made. We will definitely be back soon!

We had the most memorable vacation at this beach house, it truly exceeded all of our expectations! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully considered. The home was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need, from small appliances to all the little extras that made our stay feel effortless and comfortable.One of our favorite parts was the variety of bikes available for everyone, we loved riding around and exploring the area together. The beach supplies were abundant, which made our beach days easy and stress-free. And the evenings spent relaxing on the screened-in porch, absolutely priceless. It was the perfect space to unwind, laugh, and enjoy time together as a family.The beds were incredibly comfortable, which made it easy to rest and recharge after full days in the sun. You can really tell the owners care about creating a welcoming and enjoyable experience for their guests.We did have a small issue during our stay, but the owner responded immediately and handled it with genuine care and clear communication. That level of attentiveness made all the difference.This home offered everything we needed and more, we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend!

2nd year in a row, did not disappoint.

The property is top notch and owners are delightful. Highly recommend to those who like the peaceful and quiet neighborhood vibe yet still only a few blocks from family entertainment. You have a 5-10 minute bike ride to good eats, Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach to the east and Seaside to the west. Looking forward to next year.

This is our 4th stay at Maurice Au Mer, and it was a wonderful stay! We celebrated our parents' 50th Anniversary with a family trip, and we had a comfortable amount of room for our 3 families. Communication was exceptional and the written instructions were very helpful. Check in and check out was so convenient, and the beach toys, chairs, and bikes were so nice to use and not have to pack. The kitchen was equipped to make family meals, and The Big Chill had great variety when we wanted to eat out.We would definitely come back to this home away from home again and again!

This was our last big summer trip to celebrate our recent high school and college graduates. We had the most wonderful time making memories with our family. The house was the perfect location, beautiful and clean. I wish we could’ve stayed longer! Our 4 year old miniature Dachshund was so happy to be able to come with us. It’s always a great vacation when your pet can join. We could not ask for better hosts. We will definitely be back!

A Wonderful Place for Family Time

We really enjoyed our stay! Our adult children and spouses joined my husband and me for a week full of conversation and activities. There are lots of things to do in the immediate area. We had a couple of days of rain, but the house was perfect with its screened in porch where we just spend time catching up, snacking and drinking, and working on puzzles. It was a GREAT time!

Friend Beach Trip

Our group of 10 and 2 pups had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and well kept. The owners are very thoughtful. We had everything we could have needed from a crate for our pup to beach towels. The neighborhood was very family friendly. And there was a nearby dog walking area with bags and a trash can near the pool.

Our 2nd time here! Our family of 6 adults, 3 children, 1 infant and 2 pups had another memorable vacation. It’s just a perfect place - quiet neighborhood, access to big chill, 2 pools. And safe for kids to bike ride and play. The porch is a perfect spot. Plenty of beach equipment to take to the sand a golf cart ride away. Our grandson cried when we were leaving this morning , he didn’t want to leave “this cool house!”

Well laid out home so everyone had their space when they needed a nap from the beach. We’re already planning to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Maurice

Host profile image
We live in Atlanta and after vacationing in the Santa Rosa area for many years starting around 1990, we finally purchased a 2nd home there in 2016 with the goal of renting it and also enjoying it ourselves for several months during the off-season (if there is one!).

Why they chose this property

There are many beautiful neighborhoods along 30A but we fell in love with Prominence when we came down to look at a home in another neighborhood that was for sale. We loved the anchor of The Big Chill, the vibe of the neighborhood and the open and airy feel of the homes. We named our home "Maurice au Mer" as a shout out to our family name's French Canadian roots even though it's not grammatically correct (in fact, my husband's middle name in honor of his father, is the rhyming Omer).

What makes this property unique

-All the windows and light in the house
-The big screened-in porch
-Thoughtful touches and fully stocked kitchen that make you feel like it's a home, not a rental
