Great house for a quick getaway to 30A! Super close walk to the beach. Mom, Dad and 2 teenage kids fit perfectly with room and beds to spare! Plenty of shops nearby, grocery, pharmacy, etc. Convenient to everything but also much quieter and less crowded than areas like Rosemary, Seaside, etc. Excellent and responsive host. Good value.

Clean and Good Area

We had a great stay here! The house was well-kept and gorgeous, and in a nice neighborhood. It was a perfect distance from the beach and close to a local grocery store. We definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a nice relaxing vacation. We also got to check in early which was amazing. The owners were great and kept us informed of any changes or problems.

The location was perfect. A very short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower was very nice. The beds were very comfortable and the open concept in the kitchen/living room was good. Would definitely book again.

Great Place for broad age range family

This place had everything we needed. We had a 3 month old, 2 toddlers, and 6 adults and it was accommodating to all. The backyard area was nice to have when the kids needed a break from the beach. Living was easy at this rental! Would stay again.

Great Short Summer Vacation Spot!

We had a great time. House adorable! Mattress was so comfortable! Not far to the beach access. We rented a golf cart but you can walk. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect beach rental

Malea’s property was the perfect rental for my family’s annual vacation! It was a short walk to the beach and had plenty of room, whether we were cooking and enjoying a meal inside or hanging out in the cute backyard. There was a storm one day and the power went out in the area, and Malea was quick to submit an incident report to FPL and checked in to make sure the power was back up that day. We highly recommend this property and hope to return soon!
