We were traveling with 1 small dog, a 1 year old and 8 adults for 1 daughter graduation from FSU. The host confirmed the people coming and when we got there she had a cute little doggie set up ready and a high chair for our granddaughter. The property was perfect, the view was extraordinary. We are thrilled and will be back! It was an easy 1 hour drive from FSU to the house and we were so happy with everything about it!

If you’re searching for the ideal Old Florida beach house, where time slows down and life moves at a different pace, this is it. We had a wonderful stay with our family of 4 and our dog (didn’t use 3 of the bedrooms, the house was bigger than expected). I used to come to alligator point as a child and haven’t been back in years, wanted to show my kids and husband this peaceful area of the forgotten coast. The house was wonderful and reminded me of the cottage my family had as a child, wooden beams and walls, beautiful old Florida style you don’t see much anymore. I loved the sunken sitting area and of course the beautiful beach views and also a long dock on the bay side. The kids enjoyed the pickleball courts and fishing beach and bay. Robin the host was great. Hope to come back again.

Photos don’t do this property justice! We were a family group of nine adults who love to be together and who value our alone time. This eclectic property had nooks and crannies for privacy, and wonderful gathering areas. The decor was beachy and fun, and the kitchen FULLY stocked with every appliance or accessory you could need. The beach was great and essentially private. Robin was wonderful and responded immediately to the few requests or questions we had. Five stars aren’t enough!

Perfect Old Florida Getaway

Old Salt was such a wonderful place to spend Christmas with our family! The house is so spacious and has tons of charm. And the beach is literally right out the back door! The host was super helpful with any issues that popped up and even made sure the house was decorated for our holiday week. Not much to do in this area, especially this time of year, but we were fine with that. Just got home but I already want to go back!

We didn’t want to leave. We fished, cooked , sunned , collected beautiful shells and enjoyed each other without the distraction of a busy city. It truly is the forgotten coast. It reminds me of our vacations to Destin when I was a child. The Old Salt is truly a treasure.

Relaxing and Inspiring

This house has the charm of old Florida with the conveniences of today. It’s perfectly laid out for gatherings, but not too big for 2. The location is beautiful and the house is nicely situated for a great view of the beach, but within the shade of pines. We have stayed here a half dozen times, always with a new experience or sighting. This time it was a white squirrel! So much fun.

Truly Wonderful Stay with Outstanding Hospitality

Our stay at this home was truly wonderful! The host was exceptional—kind, attentive, and communicative. While some amenities were intermittent, the host went above and beyond to resolve any issues promptly. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the pool couldn't be cleaned, which limited its use during our stay. It would have been helpful to have a backup pool maintenance option. Despite this, the overall experience was amazing, and we would definitely consider renting this home again!
