Marina fees were pretty steep when we lived there.

I'd like to say that maybe your friends should look at a JOE neighborhood, and that they offer golf and amenities too. Soemthing peculiar occured to me though at the same time. I know some real high level JOE exec's that choose to live in Sandestin for their personal residences. Maybe they have some inside information that the public isn't privy to yet.

Depending upon their jobs, they may just choose not to be constantly approached by neighbors/customers, which would most likely happen if they live where they work.

They certainly don't want to live around the riff raff. ;-)

yeah, marina fees, no matter where you berth, are pricey. I'm sure Sandestin charges a premium.

She's joking....they have a second home in Watercolor!
If they want beach too, then Southwinds at Sandestin is a great condo. No rentals allowed in the three Southwinds Towers. They also have a "private beach" only used by Southwinds owners/guests, so the beach in front of these towers is MUCH less crowded than the rest of Sandestin. Free beach setups too.
But I personally would look on 30A. I like the more natural feel to the area mixed with the new urban communities like Seaside and Rosemary.

Are you talking about f-bombs from a certain balcony?

I'm not sure I'd characterize either Seaside or Rosemary as "natural", both communities are very commercial IMHO. If you want your space and control over your surroundings I'd suggest areas that aren't planned communities. Blue Mountain comes to mind as a good example. I'm sure there are many others.
