Elegant Carillon Beach Retreat | Private Beach Service, Balconies, Pools & Relaxation
Welcome to Surfside by AvantStay, a beautifully refreshed Carillon Beach retreat designed for families and groups who want comfort, space, and the elevated feel of one of 30A's most desirable private beach communities.
Set within the private, beautifully maintained gated community of Carillon Beach, this spacious 4-bedroom / 4-bath home offers a refined coastal experience with traditional design, calming neutral interiors, generous gathering spaces, and multiple balconies that invite you to slow down and enjoy the beach.
The main draw is simple: Carillon Beach itself, a 1-mile private stretch of pristine white sand beach and clear turquoise water. From the home, it is a short walk down a picturesque street lined with palm trees, gorgeous coastal homes, and the quiet charm that makes this community feel so special. When you arrive at the beach, your complimentary set of blue canvas chaise lounge chairs and umbrella will be waiting each morning by 8 AM at the water's edge, set up for you by the La Dolce Vita beach service.
The Space
The home has been designed to feel comfortable and welcoming. In this beach house, you will see: neutral tones, traditional coastal furnishings, soft textures, and all the comforts needed for vacation.
The kitchen is well-appointed with everything needed to cook for and serve a large group, whether you are preparing breakfast before the beach, an easy lunch between pool visits, or a full family dinner at the end of the day.
The third floor is one of the home's best gathering spaces. Filled with natural light throughout the day, this bonus area is made for entertaining, relaxing, and reconnecting. Enjoy the wet bar, wine rack, second ice maker, indoor seating, and adjoining outdoor space, perfect for an evening drink, a card game, or giving kids and adults a little extra room to spread out.
Throughout the home, you will notice surfing-inspired artwork, inspired by the owner's passion for the water and the relaxed beauty of coastal living. These thoughtful details bring personality into the home while keeping the overall feel timeless and vacation-centered.
Thoughtful Amenities
To make your stay feel effortless from the moment you arrive, the home is stocked with thoughtful essentials including coffee, tea, sugar, and starter items for your first morning, especially helpful after a late-night arrival. Beach towels and a beach bag, as well as a beach wagon, are also provided for your stay. A new washer and dryer are available with laundry detergent provided, and every bathroom includes soap, shampoo, and conditioner.
The home also includes an outdoor grill with propane provided, making it easy to enjoy relaxed meals at home after a day at the beach or pool.
We invite you to pack a little lighter, settle in a little faster, and spend more of your time enjoying your 30A beach vacation.

Why Guests Love Surfside at Carillon Beach
Carillon Beach is one of the Emerald Coast's most unique communities. It offers the privacy and beauty of a high-end beach neighborhood with the ease of resort-style amenities. Kids love enjoying all the amenities (pools, beach, ice cream, pizza, basketball, pickleball, and bike riding), while parents love the safety and containment of the gated community.
