Alys Beach
Charles Walton IV / Styling: Leigh Anne Montgomery

Striking from the Street

Interrupting the traditional beach bungalows and candy-colored cottages and condos that line Scenic Highway 30A along Florida’s Panhandle is Alys Beach. Founded in 2004, the development is an enclave of sparkling white stucco homes with angular tiled rooftops forming a network of narrow streetscapes that, at first sight, defy easy classification of style, region, or era.

From the highway, Alys Beach is clearly a world unto itself, marked by the unified aesthetic created by the clean lines and crisp white of the buildings.
