Morning
Walking off the steps of your front deck onto the path that runs parallel to 30A, it’s another beautiful morning along the highly desired WaterColor, FL corridor. Experience the quiet of the morning and take a relaxing stroll down to the beach access, toss on your running shoes for a quick fitness fix, or just settle in and watch as the neighborhood begins to stir. Walk to Seaside, Florida for a delightful coffee from Amavida Coffee and Tea or a quick bite from Modica Market, we love all of their bakery items, however, we are partial to the spinach croissant. Capture a picture or 100 of all the incredible architecture, murals, and iconic beach pavilions – each unique and designed by a collection of world renowned architects.
Noon
Afternoons are ideal for a lite lunch, a bottle of wine shared among friends at WaterColor Wine Bar, just steps from your door. Explore the locally owned boutiques throughout WaterColor and choose the perfect gift to take home, coastal apparel perfect for your evening out on the coast, or a new pair of beach sandals because as luck would have it, they didn’t quite make it in your luggage this time around. Grab the complementary bikes and take a cruise to Grayton Beach, where the most eclectic dining, shopping, and entertainment is all within a cross walk of one another. Drop by the Red Bar for a cocktail and a friendly chat with a local. Grayton Beach is known forever for Nice Dogs & Strange People but overall, where you’ll find locals and visitors, make memories, and fast friends.
Night
Dining options along 30A are abundant! We could dine for 30 nights and never be disappointed with our selection. Now, everyone has a favorite and we won’t deny that we go to Hurricane Oyster Bar for oysters, Bud & Alley’s for the fish feature, FOOW for the view, and Red Bar for the company.

Stress Free | 197 Scrub Oak Circle ~ WaterColor, FL
“Stress Free is appropriately named. We had five household and four generations all housing together. It accommodated all our needs fabulously. The location was perfect to bike to the square or to the beach. The gourmet kitchen so well furnished for those wanting to cook. The bathrooms were gorgeous, the bedrooms were spacious, and beautifully decorated. Everyone in our party loved the home, the location and the amenities. It was a delightful week, and we will be back! And thanks Dune for being responsive to all of our needs!”
Beach Side of 30A | 31 Park Row Lane ~ WaterColor, FL
“BEST HOUSE SO FAR! Beautiful home and location was perfect!”
169 Scrub Oak Circle ~ WaterColor, FL
“This property is beautiful. Great layout for our large family. Really enjoyed the back deck and pool area with our kids late in the afternoon. Recommend renting a golf cart, which makes it easy to access the watercolor pools and beach. The rooms were well furnished, beds and bedding were super comfortable. Double washers and dryers were also helpful to keep towels and clothes going for a large group. The kitchen was well furnished for a rental and had most everything we needed. The home was clean and mostly well maintained. One significant suggestion is to refinish or change the decking surfaces on the outer part of the lower level and the 4th level overlook. We had multiple issues with splinters with different people, which shouldn’t happen at a property of this caliber. Nada and her team were amazing, perhaps the best property management service we’ve ever had at the beach. They communicated frequently and we felt like they were accessible if needed.”
The best way to experience WaterColor is to stay in WaterColor. With Dune’s WaterColor Collection you and your family can explore the 30A lifestyle and experience the WaterColor, Florida lifestyle the best way…Plan, Stay, & Play!
