“The Emerald Coast's most architecturally serious hotel. Hugo Ortega's Ovide is the best restaurant within thirty miles of Seaside.”

“The only true beachfront hotel along 30A's premier residential community. Fish Out of Water remains the corridor's most considered restaurant.”

★ Honeymoon

30A

“The only hotel where the boats are tied to your balcony. Autograph Collection polish, City Dock at your feet, and a sunset that closes the case.”
