10/10! We had such a great time at Greg and Norma’s home. Their home was fully equipped making our week stay feel just like home for all 5 of us. The kitchen was above and beyond what we needed and all the extras for the beach was a huge bonus. They are fantastic host and we miss their home already. The screened patio was amazing and it was so nice to be close to everything but far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet and space for our boys to be outside riding bikes, etc.

Beautiful home, wonderfully equipped, convenient location and awesome hosts! This was our first time to visit the 30A area and this was the perfect home for us! It was conveniently located while also located in a more secluded community that was quiet. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds were comfy, the home was in great condition and the hosts were very responsive. We really appreciated the use of the bikes and the screened in porch made for relaxing mornings. There were several pools within the area to choose from as well. Overall, we highly recommend and look forward to a return trip to Wanderawhile 30A!

Greg is a great host. He communicates well and provides great information about the local area. We loved the house and will definitely plan to stay there in the future!The location of the house is perfect for my family as we enjoyed exploring the entire area and having quick access to hwy 98 made this handy for traveling to Panama City or Destin.Inlet Beach was our favorite place to relax and just a few minutes to drive from the house. The bikes were also very handy for a short ride into Rosemary beach area for shopping and dining.

Great spit

This house is great and the hosts are very accommodating. It is very clean (we have high standards) and newer construction. The location is close to several beaches and the owner provides bikes so you don’t need to drive anywhere. We have younger kids and the roads are low traffic and safe for them to ride their bikes. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Home!

Everything about Wanderawhile 30A was wonderful! The house was clean, well maintained, and had some "extras" we've not found in other rentals, like beach towels, more kitchen appliances, and ample linens. Greg and Norma were so easy to communicate with and always very responsive. Would definitely go back!

Excellent vacation stay

We had a wonderful week at Wanderawhile. The house had everything we needed. The pool was right around the corner. We road our bikes to the beach, which was actually a lot of fun. The grocery store was just down the road. It was nice to sit on the front porch and have coffee in the morning. We liked the quietness of Treetops. I would highly recommend Wanderawhile

Great family vacation rental

This property is a great place for families to stay! It is on a quiet street but so close to all the shops/beaches. We really enjoyed taking the bikes around town. One thing that would make the house even better is a gas grill, having to mess with charcoal was a bit time consuming. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again!

Cozy beach retreat

We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others. The property is not located in the town of Rosemary Beach, but is a nice/short bike ride away. It is well positioned near many beaches, including ones with public access. There are plenty of dining options, grocery stores, and shops nearby. We rented a car and recommend having one. The home itself is cozy and comfortable. The hosts were lovely and responded quickly to our questions and concerns.

Amazing location, amazing home, you won't be disappointed

What an amazing location and perfect retreat for those looking to relax at the beach. Access to a private and public beach are all within 1/2 mile from the residence, you may either walk or take the community provided tram. You can also use one of the many provided bikes to explore Rosemary beach. Shopping and food are a few minutes away in any direction. And your guests home is as welcoming and stocked as you can hope for. 5/5 stars, we will absolutely be returning.

We were very impressed with the house. The location is farther away from the beach than we expected but the beach tram made it pretty easy. One of the adult bikes was pretty horrible but we made do. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could need. I would 100 % recommend this house.

Fabulous wedding weekend

The home is beautiful and spacious for all 10 of us, the kitchen had everything we needed! The bikes were a huge plus! We rode together all over the neighborhood, especially enjoying the beaches and playgrounds. It was perfect for entertaining our extended family as well. We went to a bonfire on the beach one night and a gorgeous wedding at the Pearl hotel another, all so close to our weekend home. Thanks for treasured memories ❤️

Family Spring Break

We had a great stay, as a family of 5 (kids age 4,7 and 9) the home was beautiful yet comfortable and clean. Access to beach was easier than anticipated. Beds were super comfy (I’ve been to others with terrible mattresses). Shopping and dining an easy 5 minute bike ride or 20 minute walk! Only thing I would have loved was if the community pool was heated, which sounds like something that may happen in the future! The water was too chilly to swim when we were there end of March. My kids enjoyed the train set on the one rainy day we had. Home was well stocked! Thanks again!

Lovely Home

Overall our stay at Wanderawhile was wonderful. The house is beautiful, the kitchen is well appointed, and they even provided a bike for each adult and child in our group. Since biking in this area is a necessity not an option it was great that we didn't have to rent bikes. Potential guests should know that the only pool you have access to is the small Treetop pool. And the other pools enforce this. Also, if you plan to rent chairs and umbrellas for the beach do so as soon as you book your vacation. Two comments for the owner - there is a very bad smell at the top of the stairs. Perhaps due to water damage? I wish that would have been taken care of before we arrived. Also, the mattress on the lower bunk bed in the room with the King bed is stained. I suggest a mattress pad if you are not replacing that mattress.

5 Star Diamond

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed staying at this vacation home. If you have family, this place is for you! From all the toys/games, books, puzzles, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, wagon, beach toys, bikes, the owners were very thoughtful having all these at our finger tips..... We didn't have to worry about bringing all this extra stuff because it was already here! The kitchen was well stocked as well. The tram to the beach was very close from the home and the tram drivers didn't have a problem bringing us right to the house after a long day at the beach. All the drivers were wonderful. Location was very close to all the shops, restaurants etc... There is quite a bit of construction going on in the community which wouldn't stop me from booking but thought that should be noted. Excellent home you won't be disappointed staying here.

Family of 9 Vacation

We spent five nights here. The bikes and the bike trailers were by far the best part of the entire trip. The kids rode bikes the entire time and we took them out as much as we could. The proximity to the beach was great and the pool was super awesome with shade for the hot days. My wife and I did complete one of the puzzles during our stay, the house was stocked with almost everything you could imagine. Plenty of board games and the direct tv was awesome as well. There is a house directly across the street that was actively under construction during our entire stay but it’s about 80% complete and shouldn’t be an issue for the future. There were plenty of beach towels for everyone and toys for the kids, truly a great place for a family or two families even. About a 15 minute drive to Pier Park in Panama City and we also ate at the Shade Bar and Grill one evening that was nice and kid friendly with the outdoor seating.

I'll start by saying the owners, Greg and Norma, are beyond helpful and responsive. Which can make or break a VRBO stay. They delivered. As we planned our trip they gave us the skinny about some things to make it smoother (the rundown on each beach, getting groceries, etc.). Their instructions on everything were spot on. The day before we got there, there was a big storm that messed with the internet, thermostat and fridge (which suddenly quit a few days in). They addressed everything as quickly (including a next-day new fridge!) and these fairly big things never ruined our vacation. The bikes were a hit with all of us. The house was the perfect size for two families and had all the amenities we needed - including that big dining room table where we could all eat and play games together. The screened in patio is nice to eat or hang out on. And the kitchen has everything you need. (one note to future renters: our kids were 10-13 and the bunk room beds just fit the younger two, which was great; just don't read "bed" and assume it's full length as a heads up)The beach is super close. The pool is close (and just the right size). The neighborhood is quiet. Overall it was a great house and location for families. Pro Tip: do yourself a favor and hit the nearby Donut Hole. We did. Three times.
