Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club recently announced some great additions to the club’s membership level options, with significant focus on the Equity membership option. Equity Members, through the Board, direct the operations of the Club and have a say in the plans for the future of the business.

An Equity Member has the exclusive opportunity to pass the membership down to immediate family for a small transfer fee, allowing the membership legacy to be continued, focusing on membership as a lifestyle. Included in the membership experience is the exquisite 18 hole, par 72 golf course offering a challenge from five sets of tees for those of every skill level or handicap. Holes three through five, wind around a complex of dunes and within a few hundred yards of the Gulf of Mexico.

Referred to as the “Purest Golf in the Florida Panhandle,” by Golf Magazine, the course offers a fair challenge and unique character only found among the Highway 30a corridor and the Santa Rosa Beach area. The course boasts some of the only elevation changes in the area and takes golfers from the Clubhouse to the Gulf and back through the natural areas that enhance the uniqueness of the course.

A member of Audubon International, the course meanders through natural wildlife habitats and native areas providing a picturesque backdrop of the local area. The course is designed perfectly for walking with little distance between greens and tees, with Holes 9 and 18 ending up at the Clubhouse.

“The experience here at the Club is unparalleled to anything else in this area,” said Lesan Gouge, Marketing & Membership Director. “Here membership is a lifestyle, and there is something for everyone from the amazing Gulf views, to the active golf groups, and the camaraderie of the membership. It’s truly one-of-a-kind.”

And if the golf course wasn’t enough, the Gulf view from the appropriately named Vue on 30a, commands attention from every corner of the restaurant. The terrace is perfect for outdoor dining or drinks with friends and the view of the sunset has been voted the, “Best in Destin,” by readers of Destin Magazine.

The Vue on 30a offers an amazing happy hour daily and the cuisine, prepared by award winning and acclaimed Chef Giovanni Filipponi, is arguably the best fare in the area. The spectacular Gulf view pool and private beach are also popular amenities for those looking to enjoy the sunshine, swim, or congregate with other members and friends.

“The new maintenance program at the club has produced consistent and quality turf conditions throughout the course. Additionally, with the direction of the Greens Committee, tree removal and native area clearing have made the course much more playable and enjoyable for members and guests,” said Matt Lindley.

The Club is encouraging those interested individuals to act now, as initiation fees are subject to change in the future.
