The living room
Full-size kitchen! Notice the ceiling–every room had a vaulted, shiplap ceiling with an amazing light fixture.
I wish I would have turned on the overhead light for you to see this better but the bedroom was gorgeous!
The bathroom! I didn’t get a picture of the shower but it was a gorgeous tiled shower.
Day One:
Everyone bikes in Rosemary since most people don’t stay on the beach, so this is the green where we all biked to, parked on, and walked down the stairs to the beach. We loved it!!
We got to the beach that afternoon and ended up sitting through a pretty hard rainstorm. Dustin snapped this of me because I was having to protect myself from the huge rain drops–they were cold and hurt!
We walked to Cowgirl Kitchen for supper (I didn’t talk any pictures because I forgot!). It was so, so good! I got the bbq chicken taco salad and it was wonderful. Then we changed clothes and biked around town. We made sure to make it to the 7pm concert on one of the greens because it was a Beach Boys cover band!
Day Two:
We got up early and biked to a coffee shop we saw downtown the day before, AmaVida. It was the best tasting coffee, so we made sure to grab a latte every day we were there haha! We ate breakfast outside while people watching.
The storm the day before stirred up stuff in the ocean, so this was the only day that it wasn’t crystal clear.
We are staying at this hotel next time!
I had made reservations a few weeks ago for dinner Tuesday night at Paradis. We walked to dinner–I loved being close enough to walk everywhere! Paradis had the most amazing focaccia bread ever! I could have eaten only that as my meal.
Funny thing about me….I do NOT like seafood. So while we’re eating at lots of seafood restaurants, I always order something else.
I had a spinach salad for dinner.
Dustin had some lobster encrusted grouper with lump crab meat and shrimp?? Looks gross to me 😜
I can’t remember if it’s Seacrest or Seagrove that is right next to Rosemary?? so after dinner, we walked to a cupcake shop for dessert. I had dessert every day while we were on vacation. #noregrets
That town had it’s own cute little set up.
Day Three:
my tank is part of the NSale but sold out!
This was Dustin’s birthday!!! He wanted donuts from Seaside, so we both got up early and while he drove over to Seaside to pick up donuts, I went out for a run. Then I met him downtown at AmaVida where we both got a latte and sat on a bench in the green to enjoy our breakfast.
You cannot go wrong with Five Daughters–either in Nashville or Seaside!
This is where we enjoyed breakfast that morning!
We love the beach!!! And we both got a little burnt from the day before…
This is what we looked like biking to and from the beach every day haha!
We went to Seaside for dinner that night. Bud & Alley’s was recommended to me and it was not my favorite. Now Dustin will tell you he liked it, but I didn’t.
It could also be because I tried to branch out and make myself like seafood by ordering grilled grouper, but nope, not a seafood lover.
Then we changed clothes and biked around Rosemary a little more that night!
Day Four:
This was our four year anniversary!!
We biked to breakfast again this morning at Grits & Grind. I had the veggie scramble and it was delish!
All the heart eyes!
Dinner that night was at George’s in Alys Beach and IT WAS SO GOOD!!! I had the Mexican street corn salad–which looks weird but I loved it.
Dustin got the spicy salt and pepper shrimp and he loved it!
Happy four years to us!! And happy because we had some really amazing key lime pie for dessert!!!

We went back to AmaVida that night because we were obsessed!
Day Five:
Sadly, this was the day we had to leave. We stopped at Fonville Press for coffee in Alys Beach because I saw Mallory Ervin talk about it a lot on her vacation to 30A back in June, but it wasn’t my favorite!
I got the bacon and veggie cast iron egg scramble and like I said, it wasn’t my favorite.
We had THE BEST time ever while at the beach and also realized it was going to be our last trip just the two of us!!
