Alys Beach is a stunning, master-planned coastal community in Walton County, Florida, located along the scenic Highway 30A. Spread across 158 acres on the Gulf of Mexico, it is defined by its sugar‑white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and striking white-masonry architecture inspired by Bermuda, Antigua, Moorish, and Mediterranean styles.
At the heart of Alys Beach is a pedestrian-first village layout rooted in New Urbanism principles by DPZ Co Design. Residences—including courtyard homes, villas, and row houses—are arranged with narrow streets, lush palms, and and private courtyards. A network of cutthroughs and walking paths weave throughout the homes, and eventually to 1 of 4 beach access points. Environmental sustainability is integral to the town’s identity. With features like permeable cobblestone streets, native landscaping, and flood‑resilient building standards, Alys Beach was named the first “green development” in Northwest Florida and the first in the world developed as “Fortified for Safer Living”
Lifestyle amenities include a private 3 level Beach Club, The Caliza Pool & Restaurant with zero-entry design, Zuma wellness center, boutique shopping, diverse fine dining and the New Silva pool and amenity center, (coming 2025-2026). The Community hosts events at the Amphitheatre, Digital Graffiti art festival, 30A Wine Festival, and more. Nature is celebrated throughout the town, with 20 acres preserved as a longleaf‑pine/wetland nature preserve. An 1,800‑foot elevated boardwalk connects residents to native habitats, parks, and open green spaces that punctuate the streetscape.
Alys Beach offers a refined yet relaxed coastal lifestyle—an aesthetic retreat where architecture, art, nature, and community coalesce into a uniquely elegant sense of place.
