About this event
Once a year, the gates of some of Rosemary Beach's most stunning private homes swing open to welcome visitors for the Holiday Tour of Homes — a self-guided walking tour through an exquisitely decorated slice of one of 30A's most picturesque communities. Each home on the tour is transformed into a holiday showcase, with professional decorations, twinkling lights, and festive arrangements that turn this already-charming neighborhood into a true winter wonderland.
The tour runs from 11 AM to 5 PM, giving visitors ample time to stroll the cobblestone pathways, peek behind garden walls, and admire the creative ways that owners have interpreted the holiday spirit in their beachside retreats. It's an intimate and inspiring experience that blends holiday magic with the architectural beauty that makes Rosemary Beach one of the most photographed communities on the Gulf Coast.
Beyond the spectacle, the tour carries a meaningful mission: proceeds benefit Alaqua Animal Refuge and Caring & Sharing of South Walton. Advance tickets are required and typically available at rbhometour.com, so book early — this community-favorite event sells out every year. It's a wonderful anchor event for a December weekend trip along 30A.
Best for: Interior design enthusiasts, holiday lovers, couples, and anyone who appreciates Rosemary Beach's distinctive architecture
What to expect: Self-guided walking tour of 6–8 privately owned homes decorated for the holidays, 11 AM to 5 PM; advance tickets required
Planning tip: Buy tickets early at rbhometour.com — they sell out before the event. Pair with a late lunch at The Pearl or Black Bear Bread Co. in Rosemary Beach.
Cost: Advance tickets required; typically $30–$40 per person; proceeds benefit local charities
