Orange Beach Office Grand Opening

We are excited to announce that the official grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony of our newest location, Orange Beach, will take place this week. We hope you will join us!

You may have already stopped in to the new Pointe South office in Orange Beach, but we are making things official on March 19, 2014. We invite everyone, including our vacation rental guests, long term rental owners and tenants, as well as local businesses, to stop in for the celebration.

Stick around after the ribbon cutting to sample some delicious refreshments with us and get to know your local Orange Beach Pointe South team, including our residential leasing, vacation rental and real estate staff.

The event kicks off this Wednesday at 3PM. We hope to see all of our Northwest Florida and Coastal Alabama friends there!

New Year’s on the Gulf Coast!

If you’re looking to have a little fun this New Year’s Eve, then head to the beaches of Northwest Florida and Coastal Alabama! Whether you own real estate here, or simply come spend a few days in a Pointe South vacation rental, you’re sure to have a blast when you attend our local events.

If you prefer to vacation in Pensacola Beach, you’re in luck! Pensacola is home to one of the most unique ball drops along the coast, the Pelican Drop. Gather in downtown Pensacola to enjoy live music, food and fun before the 10-foot crystal pelican counts down to midnight! On New Year’s Day, venture out from your vacation condo or home for the Polar Bear Plunge into the Santa Rosa Sound at Paradise Bar & Grill.

If you prefer to vacation on Alabama’s Gulf Coast, The Wharf is the place to be! Enjoy their annual street party, complete with live music, before the Marlin Drop and fireworks at midnight. Head back to the shores of Florida and the Flora-Bama Lounge on New Year’s Day for the Polar Bear Dip at noon and the traditional bowl of blackeyed peas!

Holiday Activities on the Gulf Coast

Whether you own real estate in Northwest Florida and Coastal Alabama or will just be visiting the area, you won’t want to miss out on the tons of family-fun that can be had along our shores this holiday season.

First up, ice skating. Yes, you read that correctly. If you live in or will be on vacation to Pensacola Beach, head in to the Pensacola Bay Center to experience ice skating on select dates. Or, if you happen to be in Perdido Key or Orange Beach, check out The Wharf. They will offer ice skating until January 12, 2014. It’s just $8 for two hours of skating and your skate rental. For $2 more, ride the famed ferris wheel!

You also won’t want to miss Santa’s arrival to our shores. See him as he comes to shore via the lighted boat parade in Pensacola Beach on December 7, 2013 or hang out behind the Flora-Bama Lounge to see Santa jump from his sleigh and parachute to shore for a day of music and fun on December 14, 2013.

Thanksgiving at the Beach

Thanksgiving is an absolutely wonderful time of year to spend at the beach. The weather is nice and, well, it’s the beach! And, while you could certainly prepare all your holiday favorites in the fully equipped kitchens of our rentals, it’s also a great opportunity to try something a little different!

You may be wondering if there are any open restaurants in Pensacola, Perdido Key or Orange Beach that will be serving Thanksgiving dinner. The answer? Yes! And, some fabulous ones, at that. If you are staying in a Pensacola Beach vacation rental, venture into Pensacola to try the amazing creations served up by The Fish House. While something called ‘grits a ya ya’ may not traditionally appear on your holiday table, we know you will love them, along with the turkey, dressing, green bean casserole and much more. They will open from 11AM to 5PM and reservations are recommended.

In Perdido Key, head over to the annual buffet at the Perdido Key Beach Resort or cook up your favorite dish and head over to the Flora-Bama Lounge potluck. There will also be many area restaurants in Orange Beach serving Thanksgiving dinner. No matter what or where you choose to eat, we hope you have a wonderful turkey day!
