Antique Stores in Santa Rosa Beach

If you’re staying at Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse then you may have noticed we have amassed a great collection of antiques in our rooms. We have everything from antique lamps shaped like panthers, to beautiful vintage textiles. So when one of our guests comes in and asks about antique stores in our area I cant help but get a little excited. Here’s a compilation of our favorite antique/thrift stores in and around Santa Rosa Beach and why we like them so much.

Haven House has an affordable and unique selection of merchandise. Not only that, but every sale helps men in addiction recovery and the Haven House Rehabilitation Center. This is a place where the staff are extremely kind, and willing to work with you.a

They used to have a wider selection of antiques. Now it is mostly used clothing. However tucked in the back left corner there are electronics and some interesting home decor. It’s worth stopping by and checking out if you have an extra 10 minutes. You never know what you’ll find there.

I personally have bought curtains, bookshelf speakers, antique playing cards, and clothing from this Goodwill.

If you’re looking for a bargain on antiques and curiosities this is a great place to explore. Caring & Sharing has a wide variety of electronics, furniture, clothing, jewelry, and my favorite, collectables. I have personally bought an office chair, a Nintendo 64, and antique playing cards from Caring & Sharing.

I also know families and individuals that Caring & Sharing have helped, in emergency financial and family situations. The staff here are good people who care about the community. So if I can buy something from Caring & Sharing instead of a cooperation, I will.

ReStore (Habitat for Humanity)

A fairly new addition to our community. This store focuses on second-hand furniture and appliances. But their items are quality. I bought a cool red velvet couch from this ReStore. I have also seen them have an old pool table. As well as interesting art pieces. This is a good place to look for discounted furniture and appliances.

Historic DeFuniak Springs

DeFuniak Springs is a historic town just 35 – 40 minutes north of Santa Rosa Beach. Named Lake DeFuniak after Frederick DeFuniak, president of the Pensacola and Atlantic Railroad. The name was later changed to DeFuniak Springs. Still standing today is the oldest library in Florida, and original homes build in the 1800’s. A town with lots of history and plenty of antique stores.

The Funky Pumpkin is a vintage collectibles antique store. With 5000 Sq ft of space packed to the brim with antiques. And since their store works on consignment, with stalls rented out to different vendors (So long as they have a certain percentage of antiques in their inventory). It means there is a wide variety of taste and style in these booths. This one comes highly recommended.

Nook and Cranny Consignment is packed full of antiques and collectibles. They’re also well known for their vintage postcards. With multiple vendors displaying products in the store you’re sure to find something interesting. They have everything from antique furniture, art, dishes and cutlery, statues, and curiosities.


  • Loved our stay here. Comfortable & clean. Nice staff. Quirky & vintage style. We stayed in The Big Easy room & it was very quiet. Walking distance to beach but there’s a tram pick up & drop off right up the street that will take you to the beach area & Red Bar. Will definitely stay again when visiting the area.

    Wonderful staff, great location and great breakfast. The backyard of love is a great place to relax. We have been vacationing here for over 10 years and have never had a bad experience. We feel privileged and lucky each time we can come. Tons of food and drink options within walking distance!

    We stayed in the Woodpecker cottage. It was great, very clean and private. Loved the screened in porch. Will definitely return.

    Wonderful stay at Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse. Room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Very convenient location to get to the beach or other points of interest. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. The cafe serves delicious food options and the outdoor seating feels tropical. Loved our stay.

    Hibiscus Guesthouse is a wonderful alternative to the beach rental options. Situated maybe 1/4 mile from Grayton Beach and many shops/restaurants are in the neighborhood.  …

  • We stayed in the Woodpecker Cottage and loved it! It’s perfect for a couple … it’s private, cozy and cute. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast was so delicious (I recommend the Waffle Wonderful and the Baked Frittata). The location is perfect, just a short bike ride to the beach, restaurants and shopping. We will definitely be back!

    I booked the Hibiscus for my wedding weekend in Grayton Beach. They were able to accommodate my guests traveling in from 6 different states. Warren and his team made my guests feel welcome and the breakfast is awesome! This is truly a hidden gem. If you’re just in town for the day or passing through, stop at the cafe for a bite to eat.

    An wonderful cozy little coffee shop. I drink a lot of coffee and their drip coffee was great! The interior is cute and well decorated, lots of cozy “grandma’s house” vibes. The people serving were polite and courteous and their garden was lovely. We will definitely come back on our next trip. ❤️

    Hibiscus room was a large and comfortable room. I think an upgrade on the sheets would be good. Breakfast fantastic. Wonderful setting for a walk. Beach gorgeous. Everyone needs to eat at The Red Barn. Portions are huge. We split one. It can get very busy.
    Loved our little get away and would return.

    We loved the Turner Room; the space was adequate. The bedroom and bathroom were very clean and quaint. It was a great location for the price. We enjoyed the restaurant next door and the grocery store. We caught the free shuttle down to The Red Bar and back, which ran every 10 minutes. We rode our bikes down the road, where we enjoyed ice cream one day! The beach is very close and we enjoyed the breeze. Also, one day we drove down to Seaside; we loved shopping and eating pizza at Bud and Alley’s! We will definitely be back! We love 30A and Grayton Beach!!!!

  • We stayed in the woodpecker cottage after our wedding and it was perfect. Great location, great size for two, and great price. I wish we could have stayed longer and would definitely stay here again. The included breakfast was delicious too!

    Hibiscus is a relaxing, friendly place to stay! It is terrific when you have a little critter as part of the family as they have some pet-friendly rooms. There is a nice garden-like atmosphere! Breakfast is included, and there are healthy choices.

    We loved our stay! We recently stayed 3 nights in Flat 4 and everything was great. Check in was easy, room was very clean and well furnished, and the decor was super cute! We really enjoyed free breakfast in the morning and the plants all around the grounds. The room was very quiet, comfortable, and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. Lots of close restaurants near to walk to and a close corner store.

    It is a wonderful location. The room was clean and quite, we are only in the room to shower and sleep. The cafe had excellent breakfast. We found dinner right around the corner. Walk the beach half mile away or take trolley for a short ride. Many hikes/bikes/running trails available in walking distance.

    Since 2011, Hibiscus Guest House has been our cherished haven every time we venture to the enchanting 30A area. The hotel staff, with their unwavering warmth, friendliness, and eagerness to cater to our needs, have made each stay a true delight. Hibiscus holds a special corner in our hearts, just as it does for countless others who have graced its welcoming embrace over the years.
    Oh, the memories of waffle wonders, egg frittatas, and biscuits & gravy linger fondly in our minds. With the arrival of new management at the guest house cafe, offering most breakfast menu items inclusive for house guests (excluding specialty drinks), we eagerly anticipate new culinary adventures while cherishing the familiar flavors of the past.
    While some of the guest rooms may benefit from a touch of upkeep to maintain their timeless charm, the overall allure of this beautiful and nostalgic place remains unwavering. Hibiscus Guest House continues to be our go-to sanctuary for vacation stays, a place where we can unwind and reconnect with the essence of tranquility.
    As we eagerly await each return to this beloved retreat, we do so with hearts full of gratitude and anticipation, knowing that with each visit, Hibiscus Guest House has the potential to become even more extraordinary, weaving its magic into our cherished memories once again.
