Like all good things, Scenic Stays is a property management company that started from humble beginnings. When Chris Wheeler, Founder and Partner, opened the doors of Scenic Stays in 2018, he brought his enthusiasm for Southern hospitality, local experience, and industry knowledge to the 30A community. In fact, our original name was Scenic Stays 30A because it was the only area we served at that time.
With the knowledge, commitment, and local touch Wheeler brought to Scenic Stays 30A, it was only a few short years before the company expanded its footprint into Destin. While the growth was fast, the Scenic Stays team remains true to its roots by keeping the same personalized touch. Today, we still consider ourselves a boutique vacation rental company; just with the added perks you can’t always find in companies of comparable size.
Since opening our doors, Scenic Stays has brought together a powerhouse leadership team. Each provides a defined perspective on how to create an unparalleled guest experience while taking excellent care of our owners. Each individual maintains strong ties to the community and carries a passion for hospitality. It’s our goal to fulfill our mission of providing Scenic Stays Hospitality every day.
Over the years, Scenic Stays has grown organically. Word-of-mouth accolades of our reputation have found their way around the community. Today, we employ over 50 (and counting) dedicated hospitality professionals, all with a passion for service and a background in hospitality.
At Scenic Stays, we strive to provide an unforgettable guest experience. Our guests have an abundance of vacation rental companies to choose from when booking their trip to Destin and 30A, but it’s our commitment to exceptional hospitality that keeps our guests coming back year over year. We actually have a name for it: Scenic Stays Hospitality.
So what is Scenic Stays Hospitality?
It’s a dedication to Southern hospitality with the implementation of technology designed to enhance the overall experience for guests, owners, and the community.

“We’ve been vacationing in Santa Rosa Beach for 10 years. This was our best experience by far! From the rental process to the location and amenities, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. It truly felt like a home away from home with all of the kitchen supplies and beach towels provided. We would love to stay with you again! Thank you for making our 2020 vacation so memorable!“ ~ Scenic Stays Guest
