Of course it's all about the beach and Sanctuary At Redfish doesn't disappoint with a fun and unique way to access its private beach. A water taxi shuttles our guests on a short and scenic ride across Big Redfish Lake to the beach. The ride takes about 5 minutes and is a highlight for many of our guests. The boat runs seasonally from March 1 through December 1 beginning at 9:00am. (End times vary with the season.) You can also enjoy a leisurely stroll to the beach on the private boardwalk that runs adjacent to our sister development Sanctuary By The Sea. It is about a 15-20 minute walk. There are also several public beach access points throughout the Blue Mountain Beach neighborhood that are open year round.
Once at the beach, there is complimentary beach service (seasonal) for our guests during their stay that includes 2 adirondack chairs and 1 umbrella. Additional chairs and umbrellas can be rented from the on site attendant as well.
When your day at the beach is over and you are ready to rinse off the sand, there are showers and bathrooms available at the pool deck. There are 4 pools (1 heated seasonally) and 2 hot tubs for all to enjoy. The soothing sounds of waterfalls within the pool deck layout is a nice luxurious feature of this beautiful pool area. For our grill masters there are 4 well maintained Weber gas grills in the pool area for them to use, as well as a large gas fire pit that is perfect for an evening gathering and making S'mores for the kids.
There are no excuses for missing a workout during your stay with SAR's full workout facility that includes treadmills, ellipticals, free weights, stationary bikes and more. It includes both a men's and women's locker room with showers for post workouts.
To preserve the natural beauty of the SAR development, the parking garage is located beneath the building which has the additional benefit of keeping vehicles cooler during the hotter months. There are 4 elevators that access each floor including the garage level. Luggage carts are also available to transport belongings to and from the condominium.
Surrounding the Sanctuary At Redfish property is a protected coastal forest with an abundance of walking/bike trails. Along 30A itself is an 18.5 mile path that follows 30A from end to end. This is an excellent way to explore the neighborhoods, beaches and communities along 30A. Places like Blue Mountain Beach, Grayton Beach, Watercolor, Seaside and others. A short bike ride will get you to the Blue Mountain Creamery for ice-cream or Redfish Taco for live music. There are a multitude of dining options within close proximity of SAR, many of which are within reasonable walking/biking distance. Also, for your grocery and shopping needs, a Pubix grocery and Wal-Mart Supercenter are a convenient 10-15 minute car ride away. A day trip into Destin or Panama City Beach will bring you to the more mainstream activities such as miniture golf, go-carts, charter fishing, dolphin tours, helicopter rides and much more.

This condo is really roomy and very comfortable. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and the bedding is very comfortable. The large balcony overlooking the pool is very nicely appointment with lots of furniture the decor ass
This was the most relaxing trip we’ve had vacationing in 30a. From the peaceful scenery, the relaxing pools, convenient and entertaining pontoon rides to the beach, the private and accommodating beach chair set up and the well appointed condo made the Sanctuary at Red Fish a must return. The natural serene beauty of the property is like nothing else along 30a. We will definitely be back!
The host was amazing and the property was second to none. The kids loved the pools and the pontoon boat rides to the beach. The condo was clean and spacious. Perfect place if you want to be close to everything on 30A!
Perfect family condo. This condo had everything that we needed for our stay. Super clean and well decorated. Boat to the beach was easy and convenient. Pools were wonderful.
Better than advertised! Great experience all the way around!! Condo was very spacious, comfortably furnished with great community amenities and perfectly located. Would definitely return in the future.
We had a great time with our teenage daughters.
The rooms were great. I would suggest having a dresser in the guest king room for clothes.
We had absolutely zero issues Recommend this unit of you’re staying at Santuary at Redfish!
Me and my family had an unforgettable time at Redfish! The property was spacious, quiet, and very clean, and great location overlooking the beautiful pools. Redfish is a very special place with a short boat ride to the beach or paddle across the lake, night swimming in the pools, walking access to restaurants, bike trails, and more. Perfect sanctuary for an active family
Our stay was amazing! The property was clean and had great views of the pool. Everything worked as it should and we were able to relax and enjoy the whole week. The host was amazing and very responsive with any issue or question I may have had. We can't wait to stay there again and are looking to rebook for two weeks next year.
Our family stayed here during my kids spring break. This is our third year at this condo resort and first time at this condo. The condo was super clean and the communication with the property manager was awesome. We had so much fun and have zero complaints. We will definitely come back!
Our family of 5 stayed at this gorgeous condo the week after Christmas. The condo was large and clean and nicely furnished, with a well-stocked kitchen. We especially loved the extra large terrace and wonderful pools and hot tubs. Probably the nicest pool area we have ever had at a condo in the 20 years we have been coming to Scenic 30A. The property manager was also the best we have experienced with a VRBO property. Very fast and kind communication and the owners were great as well. Would stay again and thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous home.
The condo was beautiful and very spacious. We had a few hiccups with the plumbing and a little sand in places that probably shouldn't be, but our contact was very quick to reply and get things corrected. I loved the amenities and the overall complex was very easy to get around. The wait on the boat shuttle to and from the beach was a little long, but I'm sure that it seemed longer than it really was due to the heat. The beach was amazing and the chairs and umbrella that were included was a very nice perk. I would definitely stay there again. If they could have two boats shuttling during the busy time, it might be better, but overall it was a great stay. Again, the condo was beautiful and just a top notch place to stay!
I've leased several Sanctuary at Redfish units and this one was one of the best. The kitchen was well equipped, the unit's furniture was very comfortable and provided the "beach" feeling. We spent a lot of time on the deck in the comfortable chairs overlooking the pool area, Although the first floor unit did not provide a view of the ocean, it was the perfect condo for spending time with family and exploring the magic of 30A.
This home in Sancutary at Redfish is amazing! The high ceilings, large rooms, ample bathrooms, and open kitchen are a dream for a family vacation.
The unit has a beautiful view of the resort style pool. The property is very well maintained and the private beach access via pontoon taxi was a huge hit!! Captain Bob and Kris make it a fun ride. Blue Mountain Beach is close to everything on 30A but still a quaint little beach town and walkable from the home.
We loved our time at this wonderful home and will look to book here again. 😎🏖️☀️
The condo was pure perfection and we immediately felt at home. Everything from the rooms to the furnishing is laid out perfectly and the condo is well stocked with everything you could need for your stay. We truly loved the large balcony perfect for looking out over the pool and dining. The property itself is well maintained and our whole family loved the 4 pools, we grilled almost nightly on the gas grills, and my boys loved the gym. The best part for us was the slow pace of life there, no rushing around and no crowds, the private beach is breathtaking and the entire complex makes you feel like you are in another world away from everything. However, we could easily be a part of the fun both in Blue Mountain and Grayton as both are so close. This was our 3rd time at Sanctuary, 1st time in this condo, and we are already planning our next stay here. Can't wait to be back, missing it already.
What a beautiful condo and resort! Very clean and well stocked with many bathroom towels and linens. Beds were comfortable. Outdoor seating was amazing and overlooked the beautiful pools, hot tubs, fire pit, and manicured landscaping. We enjoyed hanging out on the patio…plenty of room for the family to relax in the shade during the day and gaze up at the stars at night!
The boat ride to the private beach was quick and fun. Walking to the beach is also an option and one that we chose a few times. The beach was amazing and expansive with plenty of sand for playing soccer and football. And what an amazing view for watching the sunsets!
The manager was extremely friendly and helpful. Very quick to answer our questions.
The location is great. Just a quick walk to several restaurants and the creamery. Supermarket is just a short drive away.
Thank you for hosting us, and we would love to return!!
Our family had the most amazing Spring Break stay here! From the start, everything was seamless. Check-in was easy with clear instructions sent ahead of time. The unit was immaculate, beautifully maintained, and fully stocked with all the essentials: towels, soap, shampoo, cookware, dishes, and more. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the showers had great water pressure and stayed hot, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun.The kitchen was spacious, with bar top seating and a large dining table that easily accommodated our entire family. The living room felt cozy and homey, with a fantastic view overlooking the pools. We especially loved spending time on the patio in the evenings, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and the glow of the pool lights below.The resort amenities were top-notch…4 pools and 2 hot tubs, all spotless and fully functional. We were also blown away by the beautiful wildlife around the property: deer, birds, lizards, and more. Being close to Eglin Air Force Base added a fun twist, we saw some incredible aircraft flying overhead!The pontoon shuttle to the beach was an unexpected treat. It made beach trips super easy, and the captains were fun and friendly, making the short ride enjoyable for everyone. Every staff member we met was kind, helpful, and welcoming. We’ve always hoped to find a place we could return to year after year, and we’re so happy to say we finally have!
My family and I recently stayed in this condo at Sanctuary at Redfish and it did not disappoint! First, the basics...booking was super easy, the host was very communicative and the condo itself was VERY clean!
What we loved about this location was that there was something for everyone. We had some very active people in our group and others who preferred to lounge. The condo is centrally located and a jump, hop, skip to so many things - shopping, restaurants, ICE CREAM : )..We enjoyed riding bikes around (you can rent them.) If you don't want to rent bikes, everything is very walkable. For those in the group who wanted emphasis on the relaxation, there were multiple pools and hot tubs to lounge by. If they wanted to venture over to the beach, there's a private boat shuttle that takes you right over. The condo was well appointed with everything you could possibly need. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning enjoying our coffee as we looked out over the pools. The beds are super comfortable and as I mentioned before, the place is CLEAN (I mention that because we've walked into some nightmares in our day)! All in all, we enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again! Thank you for a lovely vacation!
Sanctuary at Redfish is an AMAZING place and we absolutely loved this unit. It was clean, comfortable and convenient to all things 30A! We LOVED the boat ride too!! It was a quick and easy way to get to the most beautiful stretch of beach! We grilled by the pool, watched the sunset & made lots of memories!! Thank you to our host for making things easy! We will be back for sure!
