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.


  • Such a chill vibe, lovely old Florida decor but well stocked little kitchen and bathroom. Wonderful food and coffee. Love the pet friendly flats!

    We had the best stay! The staff even helped my boyfriend coordinate a birthday surprise of a flower delivery for our room. It was quiet and the perfect distance to restaurants and the beach! It was perfect.

    We chose Hibiscus because of the proximity to our daughter’s wedding venue and we were so pleased. We stayed in Flat 2. It was very clean and the king bed was very comfortable.  …

    This is a hidden gem. We stay in the one bedroom apartment as a small family of three. A short walk to the beach, the general store for basic things you may have forgotten to pack, and all the yummy restaurants in the grayton area. The breakfast is amazing no matter what you order. Cannot beat the price! This is our favorite and we come back one to two times a year for quick weekend getaways. Staff is friendly and the grounds are so peaceful.

    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.

    Great Ending ||We stayed here at the end of my birthday beach trip and it was a good ending. We got a good rate as a walk-in and it is in walking distance of everything but also has shuttle if you prefer to ride. …

    Hibiscus Guesthouse is a hidden gem! We’ve been to the area for many years, but only needed a few nights to attend a wedding, so gave it a try! Rented bikes and rode around the area and to/from the beach every day! The breakfast options are amazing and everyone is super nice!

    After multiple visits over 15 years, my husband and I still love this place. Warren, the owner is easy going, gracious and always willing to help. Located in the middle of what feels like a quaint and beautiful tropical garden, each room has a theme which seems to fit perfectly with the setting. If you want contemporary, this isn’t it. If you are looking for different – eclectic and quirky, always spotless,with old fashioned Florida friendliness, you found it! New person at the desk is Keturah. Someone made for the hospitality industry / Wow!
    By the way, the breakfast is really good with options for the nutrition conscious. They have a new smoothie menu – only tried one – Honey something- sure was good!

    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!

  • Friendly manager at check-in. Clean and quaint furnishings. Definitely a step back in time. Great ambiance. AC went right to work lowering humidity with just the right temp. Community kitchen nicely functional. Lucky for me the neighbors were friendly. Shower was nice and forceful. I recommend this place for a beach experience.

    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!!!!

    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.

    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.  …

    The most relaxed vacation I’ve EVER had!!! The room was comfortable, clean and provided everything we needed “Funky Bird”. Quick bike ride to the Grayton Beach public beach access. Everyone was friendly, and breakfast provided with your stay was a plus!! Close to many great restaurants. I would stay here again and again!!
