ABOUT ALYS BEACH
A beautiful new resort town located on Florida's Scenic Highway 30A, Alys Beach is the world?s most extraordinary example of New Urbanism, a method of town planning recognized by The New York Times as ?the most important collective architectural movement in the past fifty years.?

Master planned by Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company (DPZ), Alys Beach?s stunning architectural vision drew inspirations from both the islands of Bermuda and the family courtyard homes of Antigua, Guatemala. Alys Beach features 1,500 feet of sugar-white beaches along the Gulf of Mexico, and when complete, the 158-acre resort town will be home to over 600 villas, rowhouses, courtyard homes and family compound retreats.

?Alys Beach may well be the most truly innovative community under construction in the United States today,? said Andr?s Duany of DPZ, designers of over 300 new towns and revitalization projects around the world. ?Alys Beach will eventually be imitated everywhere, I am certain.?

I had the pleasure of getting a tour of the pool a few weeks ago, and it is truely amazing. The details are incredible and everything is top quality. It is nothing like any other pool around here. It feels like you've been transported to the best resort in the Mediterranean area. Take this chance to see it for yourself!

Is Alys Beach trying to privatize 1500 feet of public Walton county beaches? Why all the guards parked day and night?

Does this lovely pool have adequate wheelchair access? I didn't see it, maybe it's so artfully and integrally designed that I missed it. Just wondering...

They did a great job of making the entire pool complex including the upper level open air deck area wheel chair accessible, but I didn't see a ramp/handrail to assist someone in a wheel chair in & out of the pool or spa.

Usually they are hydralic at these types of pools with a removable chair that can be put in place to lower and raise a wheelchair bound indiciual into the water. You wouldn't even notice it-just to small holes next to the pool which the assembly slides up and down in.
