Salt Water Express by AvantStay | Top Floor, Corner Unit | Adagio
ABOUT THE HOME: Saltwater Express is a TOP FLOOR end unit in the gated community of Adagio which is located on the south side of Highway 30A in Blue Mountain Beach. It sits on a high dune bluff overlooking a large private stretch of pristine white beach.
The interior includes 10' ceilings, an arched hallway, granite counters and marble flooring that adds to the warm and welcome ambiance of this beautiful condo. The exterior is styled in Italian Mediterranean architecture and has lush tropical landscaping that adds to the inviting allure of the property.
The main pool is 8,000 square feet with three tiers connected by continuous waterfall features and incorporating a central fountain. Surrounded by spacious lounging decks and seating areas this pool is a delight to all who frequent Adagio. The heated gulf pool is perched at the edge of the dunes adjacent to the beach access. Additional amenities include an on-site fitness center with state-of-the-art exercise equipment, community room, private beach access with showers, and four separate outdoor Viking BBQ grilling areas.
ABOUT THE AREA: Blue Mountain Beach has been awarded a national "Blue Wave" designation for the pristine cleanliness of the sugar sand shoreline. This coastal community rests between Santa Rosa Beach and Grayton Beach State Park and is known for its tranquility, many restaurants, and family atmosphere. The natural beauty of the sugar sand beaches, walking, biking trails and adventure await you. Spend your mornings grabbing coffee and pastries from Blue Mountain Bakery and evenings strolling to dinner at Blue Mabel Restaurant, Mimmo's,or Basmati's Asian Cuisine.

Beautiful comfortable and enjoyable. FREE bonfire!
BEST MEMORIES! Thank you this checked everything on our list, the bonfire night was everyone's favorite. We love this area quiet and the beach wasn't crowded. Condo was spotless and had all we needed. Communication was efficient and easy to follow. See you for Thanksgiving and the turkey run!
We’ve stayed at a few different condos at Adagio and love the property location, layout, pools, etc. This particular unit was nice. The cleanliness was lacking a bit. There was soap residue in the master shower and lots of awful stains on the duvet cover (we were going to use as a blanket) in the master closet.

30a Beach Girls Condo
Amazing condo and location! The condo was 5 stars across the board. Great pool views, very clean, and housed 6 ppl for a girls trip perfectly. Daisy was an excellent host and was always available. She had so much patience with all my questions when I booked! So attentive. I would definitely stay here again.
The condo is spacious and we were impressed with the complex. We would definitely stay again!

Great place to spend a vacation!
Had a blast staying here, the pool and location alone were great, then add in all the other awesome amenities and this place was stellar to stay at! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice relaxing place to spend with friends or family.
First time visitors from Idaho - loved the property and loved the area! We'll be back!

FREE BONFIRE!!!!
Great stay! The property was very clean and tidy and had all the amenities needed, the included bonfire was our all time favorite day. The hostess was lovely! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.
My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay at Salt Water Express. The unit was comfortable and very clean. The pools were fun and proximity to the beach ideal. The unit exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend!
The property was beautiful and in a great location. We loved having the two pools, and specifically the one that was beachside. The balcony was huge and had a great view of the pool. The condo was quiet even with kids playing in the pool. The in-unit ice maker was a huge bonus.
My one complaint is the lack of beach real estate available in front of the condos due to the La Dolce Vita rentals. We experienced that where we stayed last year and was one of driving factors of not returning to that spot. This needs to be clearly outlined (with rental pricing) as it’s frustrating to find out after arrival. Unfortunately prime beach real estate is taken up by unrented and unused chairs/umbrellas while families squeeze into the non-commercial area.
Again the property was fantastic, but the commercialized beach access was frustrating.

We ill return
Location is perfect! Easy walk to the pool (right downstairs), beach, restaurants and shops. Found this awesome health food store a 3 minute walk away. The condo itself was perfect for my kids and my husband and I. Wish we had had more time to use the beautiful back deck and catch just one more sunset. Condo was well appointed with everything you'd need. Would definitely stay here again if back in the area. The managers were great to work with and available for any questions and suggestions. The included bonfire was so much fun! Easy check in and check out!!
