Lupin Beach is a new luxury community on the serene Gulf Coast of Florida, an intimate collection of modern, luxury homes positioned along the shoreline and around the private pool amenity.

Lupin Beach is being developed by EBSCO Gulf Coast Development, Inc., developers of Alys Beach, Florida. The architecture of Lupin Beach is refined and modern with a nod to the classic coastal towns of the Caribbean, embracing the inspiration of the natural surroundings through materials, palette, and environmental sustainability. A place of rest and play, stillness and growth, nature and nurture.

Bordered by the protected, undeveloped land of Camp Helen State Park to the east and the vibrant life of 30A to the west, Lupin Beach is a true coastal refuge on the sparkling waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

For more information on purchase opportunities in Lupin Beach, contact reception.sales@lupinbeach.com.

THIS IS A LEGACY HOME owned by only 6 families over the last 127 years. The most historic home on 30A has been renewed, renovated, expanded, and brought to life. Originally owned by Grayton Beach's namesake, Charles T Gray - this home was originally constructed in the 1890's and has been brought to 2022 building standards and comforts, and expanded by nearly 3500 square feet to take advantage of the cornerstone lot views. A home like this has never been available on the 30A market before. The history and heritage has been preserved, while at the same time the whole structure has been reborn. Water views abound! 7 bedrooms total, 6 of the bedrooms have uninterrupted views of the gulf and white sandy beaches. Over 3000 sqft of outdoor entertaining space.

Hair Extensions can Actually Help Your Own Hair to Grow!

THE SCIENCE behind it hinges on the nature of the bond. If you choose Jennifer Alberts’ Hair Extensions then you have the benefit of the Keratin Bond. Keratin is what your hair is made of, and is scientifically proven to be much kinder to your hair (which is why it can serve to improve your hair’s overall health). With hair not snapping and with the bonds contracting and expanding in heat and cold at the same rate as your hair does allows for your hair to naturally grow without restrictions and snapping that can occur in methods such as clip-ins, wefts, glued bonds, etc.

This is a wonderful technique for women who have lost length, thickness, or would love a change.

Let’s jump into the question we get the most. You’re a Brazilian Jujitsu World Champion. Why real estate?

Ha. That’s the popular question, isn’t it? I’m attracted to pursuits of excellence that change lives. What better way to leave a lasting mark on my community than through real estate? Every day, I bring my world-champion discipline and elite standards to creating huge wins for my customers and to serve my entire community.

Let’s talk about service. You prioritize service in a way that is unique. Walk us through your process.

It’s simple, really, even though it’s not always easy. My hunger to excel pushes me to serve my clients in a way that separates me from Realtors who don’t understand elite competition the way I do. Still, it’s giving back that feeds me. I’ve built it into every part of my business. A portion of every dollar I make is distributed to local organizations. Every week, the Domenech Group gets together to serve through a program we call ‘Labor Day.’ We roll up our sleeves and provide free labor for those in our community who need us most. Mowing lawns, painting, repairing fences, we’ve done it all. I mean, what’s the point of all this success if you’re not paying it forward?

In Brazilian Jujitsu, you achieved the highest rung by winning the world title. What title do you strive for real estate?

I used to measure my success through awards and won quite a few of them. International Rookie of the Year, multiple national service awards, Innovator of the Year, and so on. They’re great and my team and I worked hard

to earn them. Then my son was born. He is my morning, noon, and night. It’s incredible what that kind of love breaks open in you. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Great ness is measured by service.” I am determined to model that standard of greatness for Elias, so together, we leave a legacy of true impact on the Emerald Coast. I love when
