Our stay at The Pearl Hotel in Rosemary Beach was absolutely magical. From the moment we arrived, we were met with warmth, care, and exceptional service from every member of the team. The hospitality here is bar none — truly some of the best we’ve ever experienced. The valet team — Jack, Filip, Tom, Colin, Dalton, and every other member we encountered — made us feel immediately welcome. Their kindness and professionalism were unmatched. The concierge staff, especially Abigail and Fin, were knowledgeable, thoughtful, and always eager to help us make the most of our time. Every question we had was met with genuine interest and care. At the pool, we were blown away by the attentiveness of Chris, Gar, and Emmanuel. Daily rainstorms rolled in around 3 p.m., and each time, they quickly and carefully safeguarded all our belongings with such grace — never missing a beat. On the beach, Cooper, Austin, Kaleil, and Joseph were happy to accommodate our party of four with extra chairs and umbrellas. Their cheerful energy and willingness to help made each beach day seamless and stress-free. Our room was perfection, thanks to the incredible work of Dominga, Mayra, and Manuel. Every detail was immaculate, and the sweet little treats left behind each day were such a thoughtful (and delicious!) surprise. The only area that didn’t quite meet the high bar set by the rest of the hotel was the on-site restaurant — and, frankly, the surrounding restaurants didn’t impress much either. As Cuban American foodies, we found the menu underwhelming. The flavors and overall quality didn’t reflect the level of excellence found elsewhere at The Pearl. That said, Will, our server, was an absolute standout — warm, attentive, and professional. After a cold, overcooked steak and fries (which I sent back), he quickly brought me a Caesar salad that was actually quite tasty. He’s a gem and deserves a menu that matches his service. Honestly, we think a thoughtful F&B overhaul could be transformational — welcoming in more diverse palates and elevating The Pearl to an even more sought-after destination. The potential is there. One final thought — and a recommendation I hope makes it to the right people (Abigail, we’re looking at you!). During my daily morning beach walks, I noticed how much trash was left behind from the day or night before. The Pearl is perfectly positioned to lead a community-driven “Protect Our Beaches” initiative. Picture this: beautifully designed, Pearl-branded paper (or compostable plastic) bags available to guests and visitors, who can help clean up the shoreline. In return, they receive a complimentary app, cocktail, or mocktail at the Pearl. It’s a small effort with a big impact — one that would further The Pearl’s legacy of care and stewardship. You could call it “Pearl Patrol” – Clean the beach, earn a treat, or maybe “Bag It for a Benefit”? We think the 30A community would happily get behind a program like this. In summary, the Pearl Hotel is a true gem, and your stay will be exceptional — no matter what. With gratitude, Michelle, Katie, Laura, and Stephanie

The Pearl is the top destination hotel in Rosemary beach. It's an european style hotel in the middle of downtown Rosemary. The staff are top notch and the hotel, amenities and entire experience are second-to-none. While it is more expensive than many hotels, the old-adage applies... "you get what you pay for."

I was in the area for work and wanted to take an extra day to spend at the beach, and just happened upon this hotel as I was looking for a hotel where I could easily see and access the beach. What a find - I cannot recall the last time I stayed at a hotel in the US or abroad where I received this level of service from each and every staff member. The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. Amazing care taken of guests by the front desk, valet, beach guys, and at every other level.

Wow this place was incredible. The staff the accommodations the location and just the level of service was beyond 5 stars. That bed was so comfortable I didn’t want to leave it…except I was there for the beach. Decisions Decisions

The five nights I stayed at The Pearl in late May was simply fabulous! This was my fifth time staying at The Pearl , two previous trips were with my late husband. The entire staff was welcoming and provided excellent service from checkin, Havana Beach Bar and Grill, Rooftop dining, beach chair set up to checking out. The town is very walkable with a wide assortment of restaurants and shops. I was made aware of two weddings two weeks prior to my arrival and I planned accordingly for meals My room was spacious, large bathroom with great products to use, and was very comfortable with a town view this visit. I was concerned prior to my visit if the town view would be noisy, but it was very quiet. I plan to return to The Pearl in the future. It’s truly a gem.
