Wonderful!

We had an amazing time from the moment we booked until the day we left. Gary was extremely helpful throughout the process. The property was clean and organized. Beach access was communicated clearly and was a very short walk from the residence. The pool was heated, which was nice during the colder days. Parking was simple and there was room for two vehicles on the quiet street. This are is directly off of 30a and within walking distance to several restaurants and shopping locations. We would certainly book again.

Great Family Getaway with Plenty of Space and Amenities!

Our families had a wonderful stay! The house was in great condition, with plenty of space for our two families (4 adults and 4 kids). The heated pool was a big hit, with the kids using it daily. The beach was easily walkable, and there were nearby shops, restaurants, coffee spots, and ice cream places—all within walking distance. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. The house is also conveniently close to Seaside, offering even more shopping and dining options. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this place!

Guests Flying - Be aware of what's not provided or mentioned

House was great, location was great, Gary was easy to work with. Pool and backyard was awesome to come home to after day at the beach. However, the guest who is flying into area and not driving needs to be aware of things NOT provided but needed. Especially at a beach house. No hair dryer no pool toys, nothing for beach, chairs, cooler, towels etc I have been renting beach houses for years and never had this be an issue before. Just something to think about. Amy

Wonderful Vacation Home!

We had a great stay here! Communication with Gary was fantastic from start to finish and he helped us in any area we needed. The location is great and is a short walk to the beach as well as to many other fun places to visit on the coast. The house was very clean and had all the accommodations that were great for our family. We had a minivan and a truck, so parking is a little snug and had to play musical cars a little bit but we made it work. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great central location and beautiful home!

Our family of four had an awesome time at Always Summer! We rented a golf cart and found our favorite beach access nearby. We could walk to the beach, The Old Florida Fish House (our favorite), or take a short golf cart trip to Seaside or The Hub. Gary (the owner) was very responsive and took care of everything we needed. The pool was beautiful, and we enjoyed wrapping up the days with a night swim. The bedding was perfect, and my wife and I decided to look for those sheets and mattress when we got home. Our best 30A stay, thus far. Great job, Gary!

Wonderful Fall Visit

We had an excellent stay at this beautiful home! Communication with the owner was great and he was prompt to respond. The kitchen is very well stocked and perfect for cooking meals at home. The rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The walk to the beach is easy (we had adults and teenagers so everyone could easily carry something). The pool area is perfect for afternoons after the beach. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our weeklong stay. We would definitely stay again if we return to the same area!

The perfect beach house

The beach house was wonderful - fresh, coastal decor, clean, spacious and convenient. Easy and secure access system. It was great having two master suites, three full baths and the downstairs bedroom, as well as third floor area with a 4th half bath and huge rooftop deck. Kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. We loved all of the balconies and decks and the beautiful little backyard with palm trees and a nice and private pool. Easy walkable beach access, though most days we took a golf cart to beach access about a mile away or went into Seaside. All very close. Would definitely return and recommend.
