NOT SO HUMBLE BRAG-->-->-->
We are happy to answer all of your questions and look forward to your inquiry. You may find though that we are a little biased when it comes to bragging about our home and its location. For a real taste of what it's like to stay at Burning Daylight, enter key search terms under our reviews for common answers to your questions. "Walk to the beach" "Cleanliness" "location" "amenities". We're happy to have our guests do the bragging for us.

TRUE BY OWNER RENTAL-This is a family owned and operated home. Our goal is to provide a five-star experience. We want to operate the kind of rental we would like to find on our vacation. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.

Burning Daylight is a custom home set on a rare coastal dune lake that looks out to the Gulf of Mexico. We have provided the perfect spot to relax and enjoy family time while having easy access to all that 30A has to offer. Hop on a kayak or stand-up-paddle board (provided for your use), and explore the lake and surrounding areas.

Triple master and Bunk Room design, a stay at Burning Daylight ensures private luxury baths for all and dedicated adult, kid and family spaces.

Each suite includes a private bath and sweeping lake views to watch the sunrise and sunset. Each room is also equipped with blinds, flat screen TVs and wifi, in case sunrises and sunsets aren't your thing.

Suite 1 - First Floor. King bed with private bathroom and zero entry shower

Suite 2 - Second Floor. Queen bed with private bath with tub

Suite 3 - Second floor. Queen bed with private bath with tub

Bunkroom - 5 twin captains bed with attached bath with two shower and large three faucet sink

The two upper master bedrooms flank the upstairs living area, offering a second gathering spot for groups of kids or adults.

The Bunk Room sleeps five with custom built-in luxury bunks which include personal reading lights, a charging station and private storage for each occupant. The wall-mounted flat screen ensures all Bunk Room occupants have a perfect view, although sleep will overcome the most avid young television watcher after a day on the pristine Gulf Coast beaches.

The Bunk Room bathroom has a private WC, two showers with private changing areas and a triple-faucet trough sink, offering the perfect blend of private and shared spaces for young guests.

Burning Daylight's gourmet kitchen is outfitted with two full-size refrigerators, two quiet dishwashers and a top of the line four-burner gas stove. Coffee and cocktail stations are located in the butler's pantry, ensuring adequate space for the most avid cooks and those preparing and consuming cocktails. Carrera marble tops the center island, large enough for your whole group to gather around. The kitchen is fully stocked with a wide range of appliances and dinnerware for your group and any visitors. Seated meals for thirteen enjoy lake views and breezes.

The screened-in side porch offers a covered outdoor living and dining space large enough for al fresco dining, entertaining or gaming.

The beach is a short walk, less than 5 minutes on foot with PUBLIC BEACH ACCESS at the outfall. Or, launch in one of the included water conveyances from the dock and paddle to the outfall where the ocean and lake meet. Kids can swim in the protected pool at the intersection of ocean and lake water.

Burning Daylight guests can rinse off after a day at the beach in the private outdoor shower and drop towels and bathing suits off in the sand room to take advantage of the full size washer and dryer. Enjoy a game of ping pong in the garage while your bathing suit is on the spin cycle.

Burning Daylight sits on Eastern Lake, one of the 14 rare dune lakes that dot the 30A landscape. Easily explore all of 30A from Grayton Beach, Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach, Seaside and all of the resort communities are an easy bike ride or short car ride away. Burn daylight enjoying the shopping and amenities each of these communities have to offer and then return to Burning Daylight's outdoor deck, where there's room for your whole group to watch the remaining daylight burn over the lake and the Gulf of Mexico simultaneously.

The house was perfect, lots of space for a family to enjoy. Kitchen is extremely well equipped. Paddling on the lake was fun. It was great to be able to get up every morning and take a walk on the beach.

An excellent spot for an extended family vacation. Kitchen was comfortable and well stocked for cooking and entertaining a big family. We had 3 couples and 3 young adults... and another family stopped by just for dinner-plenty of room! View of the lake and proximity to the beach gives you a quiet retreat from the beach when you're ready for it. The short 5 minute walk to the beach was always pleasant—I'd recommend a golf cart rental for shuttling beach chairs and older folks.

This was our fourth trip in the past 6 years and this was by far our favorite house. Beautiful home, great location and amenities. Being on Eastern Lake front was amazing. Easy access to the beach from multiple locations. Everything was better than expected. Highly recommend.

Family loved this place and all its amenities. The bunk room was perfect for the kids. The queen beds upstairs left a little to be desired but still comfortable. Would stay again for sure!

Despite not the best weather we had a really nice time! So much to do nearby with shopping and restaurants on 30A. We rented a golf cart and bikes which added to the fun. Beach and water are beautiful! The kids enjoyed fishing and using the kayaks too!

Beautiful house and the location was perfect. The best of both worlds to enjoy the beach and lake. Thank you for an amazing stay. The house is just a short walk to beach. I was surprised at house close the ocean was to the house. Owner was very helpful and kept in touch to be sure we were enjoying our trip. Our family will be back.

My family and I could not have enjoyed our stay more! The location is perfect, and the neighborhood is quiet. It is ideal for families of all sizes. My kids loved it even more than I did. I have already recommended this property to several friends, and we'll definitely be returning in the future!

The house is beautiful and very relaxing. We really like having the option of going the the beach or staying home and playing in the lake. The owners respond quickly to any questions and make sure you have everything needed to be comfortable.

This is a lil gem on a coastal lake! It has everything you need and then some! Such a beautiful & relaxing setting. Andra is a great hostess. They did a fantastic job on the updates of this home, great kitchen! We will for sure be back!

The little things make such a big difference! Host provided oranges for fresh squeezed orange juice, s’mores ingredients for nights around the fire pit, ground coffee/Kcups to get the morning going, and enough trash bags and soap for our big family! Thank a million for making our stay stress-free! The views of the dune lake were beautiful but the house was built and decorated just as beautifully! Kids loved having kayaks to paddle and the grown ups loved the all amenities as well!

What a beautiful property! We visited 30a for the first time and loved it. Andra's and "Burning Daylight" was just perfect. Andra has thought of all needs that guests might have and has the property well stocked. The location is perfectly poised in the center of 30a making all of cute towns easy to access! We loved it!
