Living in Alys Beach
Of all the homes I've been in on 30A, Alys Beach is the most unique, and I mean on the inside. Everybody talks about the white walls from the street, but what gets me is the interiors. They put more detail and effort into the design and building of these homes than anywhere else around here. You'll see Venetian plaster on the walls and real thought in every detail. You just don't see that kind of design everywhere.
The Stephens family from Birmingham bought the land at auction in 1978 and waited about 25 years before building started in 2004. The town is named for Alys Stephens, and it's said like "Alice." Every home is white masonry, built around a private courtyard, and built to the FORTIFIED storm standard.
It's the most expensive place on 30A, and lately it's also been the fastest to sell. A Gulf-front home sold for $28 million in May 2026, the town's record.
From what I've seen, a good part of Alys doesn't rent, but rentals are allowed, and Alys runs its own rental program. Renters get Caliza Pool, ZUMA, The Silva and the beach, but not the owners-only Beach Club.
Carts are out here. Alys banned golf carts and LSVs at the end of 2018, for owners and renters alike, so people walk and bike. The beach is private, about 1,500 feet of it, for owners and rental guests through three gated accesses.
Things to know before you buy
- Anything visible from outside goes through the town architects and a review board, down to umbrellas and grills.
- Every home must be built to FORTIFIED, and the certificates last five years. Ask whether the home's certificate is current.
- Dues are billed quarterly by lot size and type, plus a one-time capital contribution and a foundation fee at closing. The amounts aren't published, so get them early.
- No carts or LSVs, Mokes included, since the end of 2018.
- There's no public beach access or beach parking in town. The nearest public lots are at Inlet Beach.
- Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and there's no mail delivery to homes.
- The nearest full hospital is about 30 minutes away.

An insurance-industry building standard for storms. Every Alys home has to meet it, and the certificate lasts five years.

Caliza Pool, ZUMA, The Silva and the beach, but not the owners-only Beach Club.
