Living in Miramar Beach, FL
Walton County
Miramar Beach is the upscale beachfront condo-and-resort corridor sitting between Destin and the 30A towns, geographically and in market position -- high-rise Gulf-front condo towers dominate its identity in a way that's distinct from Destin's harbor-village core or Santa Rosa Beach's low-rise New Urbanist towns. It's the second most expensive market in this cluster after Santa Rosa Beach, with a notably slower sales pace (122 days on market) than the rest of the cluster.
