30A Vacation Rentals
byELP Luxury Vacations
Recently featured in The Wall Street Journal, Sam’s collection at ELP exemplifies coastal luxury living, with premium homes that are architecturally stunning and ideally located near the sugar-white sand beaches and endless amenities Destin and 30A have to offer. Among the many unique features ELP properties boast are floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive outdoor living spaces that take full advantage of the properties’ prime locations by highlighting breathtaking, unobstructed Gulf views.
Inside ELP homes, you’ll find vast floor plans with spacious living areas, gorgeous hardwood and tile flooring, custom cabinetry, and immaculate high-end finishes that give each home its own unique character. Luxe furnishings, thoughtful designs, and top-of-the-line appliances are accompanied by extra touches such as private elevators, surround sound systems, spa-like bathrooms, and cozy theater rooms for ultimate comfort and luxury.
Outside ELP properties, you will encounter soaring palm trees, lush landscaping, and, of course, spectacular Gulf views. Enjoy your coffee on a private balcony, take an afternoon nap on a wrap-around porch, and experience the perfect conclusion to a day at the beach as you watch the sunset from the pool deck. It goes without saying that there is nothing more inviting after a long day in the hot Florida sun than a refreshing dip in a private pool. The luxury pools at ELP properties come complete with design features that are equally creative and stunning, including built-in spas, infinity edges, waterfall features, and swim-up bars.
With modern coastal designs, incredible views, luxurious amenities, unmatched outdoor living, and amazing locations, these high-end homes provide the perfect setting for an unforgettable beach vacation.

Beach, boating, and outdoors in generalSam Cobb jokes that he fell into property management. With an extensive leadership background in finance and real estate, Sam never imagined he would make a career managing vacation rentals. Sam’s prior success and years of experience helped him develop a keen sense for potential growth opportunities – so when a close friend in the luxury property rental industry sought his skill set and expertise to help grow a local best-in-class property management firm, Sam took the leap into the vacation rental space and has never looked back.
As Chief Growth Officer at his previous company, Sam was responsible for all aspects of growth, establishing key client relationships, increasing profitability, new market expansion, and fostering a winning company culture. Sam’s efforts at the company played an integral role in its overall success and eventual acquisition.
With Echelon Luxury Properties, Sam realized that he and his team could provide tremendous value to ultra-luxury property owners by narrowing their focus to exclusive asset management. He set parameters for revenue and aesthetics to identify precisely the right properties for his luxury boutique, and he and his team have approached the business with the goal of delivering unmatched levels of service and the mindset that the owners of the luxury properties he stewards should be treated as true partners. Sam’s motto for ELP since its inception has been, “fewer but finer,” and their portfolio proves it.
At ELP, Sam manages a carefully-selected team and is guided by the belief that if you take great care of your people, they’ll take the best care of your guests and owners. With his ‘people first’ mentality, he firmly believes that when you lead with heart, you can’t help but deliver on your promises. And Echelon certainly has been delivering – listening and being in tune with luxury homeowners and guests, offering high touchpoint concierge services and personalization in all facets of the business – all in the name of providing an incredible homeowner and guest experience that always goes the extra mile. With ELP, Sam and his team have built a truly exceptional property management firm for high-end rentals in the renowned communities in Destin and along 30A, and the future couldn’t be brighter.
A stunning coastal region nestled along the Emerald Coast of Florida, 30A is renowned for its pristine white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and a collection of charming coastal communities that offer a unique blend of sophistication and laid-back charm. Beyond the beach, 30A offers diverse culinary options and a vibrant arts scene, hosting a variety of events throughout the year, including music festivals, art exhibitions, and food and wine events. From hiking and biking along scenic trails and state parks to fishing, golfing, and shopping, 30A offers something for everyone.
It’s no wonder then that there is no other location ELP Luxury Vacations founder, Sam Cobb, would rather call home for his family.
