~ Gulf front condo
~ Living area with wall-to-wall views of the beach and Gulf of Mexico!

This Gulf-front condo truly offers the "Beach Life". Just moments after arriving you can have your toes in the sand thanks to direct beach access from the private back balcony (a rare feature for 30A condos). Located in Seagrove Beach approximately halfway between Seaside and The Hub, you'll be hidden from the crowds but still centrally located to some of the area's best shops and restaurants. However, you may not want to leave thanks to French windows lining the back wall, allowing emerald water views from anywhere in the kitchen, living or dining room. Sliding glass doors open up to the expansive, covered balcony, which is perfect for sipping your morning coffee, reading a book in the breeze or toasting an iconic 30A sunset. This three-bedroom home can comfortably sleep eight with the ease of one-story living, making it the perfect escape for families or friends.

Many of the communities along 30A are continuing to expand, so many more individuals can come enjoy the crystal blue waters of the Panhandle. Unfortunately, a side effect of this is construction and all the items that come along with it, such as noise, roadblocks, etc. We understand this can be inconvenient for our guests, which is why we have chosen to make all possible guests aware of the possibility of this during their beach vacation. As most of this is outside of 30A Cottages realm of control, we are not able to offer discounts/compensation for any noise complaints, road blockades, etc. during a guest's stay. Please reach out to a team member with any questions you may have!

Community Amenities
Found along the Emerald Coast of Northwest Florida, Seagrove Beach is a mile-and-a-half beach that encircles a small cove and lures visitors with its beauty and serenity. Named for the thick grove of windswept trees that surround it, Seagrove still maintains the same green canopy of oaks, magnolias, hickories and sand pines that came to define it a half a century ago. Today, Seagrove has an eclectic mix of old beach homesteads and newer cottages, as well as a well-balanced menu of off-beach activities that range from exploring Point Washington State Forest to browsing the beach shops and restaurants along Scenic Highway 30A.

Parking
Sugar Dunes is a gated community with a maximum of two vehicles per condo in designated parking spots, anyone found with more than two vehicles will be towed via the building manager. Two parking passes will be provided in the condo and must be displayed at all times during your stay.

(Note: Homeowners do have dogs, therefore anyone with allergies to dogs will need to be conscious of this.)

Love the location
We love the location of these condos, however, number 7 does need a lot of work. There are broken tiles, mold in the window seals, some of the deck boards feel weak, the front door knob/lock needs replaced as well as the one going to the beach. Some of the drawers were broken. The people working the beach, chairs, etc., were extremely amazing and always helpful. The spaciousness of the condo itself is always a positive. With that said, we do plan on coming back next year.

Location great. Updating and cleanliness terrible.
We love the location. Generally staying in this area. Convenient to a lot of restaurants, etc. This particular condo is in desperate need of updating and supervision of the cleaning process. Master tub had dirty sand in the bottom of it, and in the window seal behind the bathtub there was a lot of filth. After wearing socks on floor for short period of time, they were gray and black. Thick, dust, standing on baseboards & outlets. Couch covers need washing or replacing.

Perfect location!
Love the location and the private beach. Enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the porch every morning as well as watching the sunsets in the evening. Condo was comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. As others have said, only thing we’d recommend is that all the bathrooms really need updating. Especially at the price point we paid. Also, my husband and I couldn’t take a shower at the same time. The hot water would only work with us taking turns. If we showered at the same time, one of us would only have cold water. Made it a bit inconvenient if we planned on going out for the evening but it was manageable for just the two of us. If there are more staying in the unit, it would be a bit more difficult. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay!!

This condo needs work
First, I’ll say the good things. We love Sugar Dunes. It’s an excellent location. The condos are right on a private beach, and you can access the beach from stairs on the balcony. We are spoiled to this place! This was our third stay at Sugar Dunes, and it won’t be our last. Having said that, the individual condo needs A LOT of work. I could look past the chipping paint and molding in the bathrooms (although it’s such a simple, inexpensive fix, why wouldn’t you spruce it up?), but there is mold around all the recessed lighting in the condo. Water constantly dripped on us from the ceiling vents. We could have literally pressed hard enough to put our foot through the rotted floor in one of the bathrooms. The dryer didn’t dry (which they came, and it was better, but still not great), and two of the shower heads only dripped water when turned on full blast (also fixed while we were there by them replacing those shower heads). They got it right on the beds. Super comfy. You can stay in a much nicer condo anywhere on this property for the exact same price. Don’t stay here!

Buyer Beware
Property Manager requires renter to sign multi-page agreement with lots of penalties up to $500 each. Property falling apart. No remodel. Disgusting rot everywhere. Black mold. Green mold everywhere. No curtains in master bath. Toilets were elementary child size. Great location and access to beach. I have pictures of mold and run down

Beautiful views from the deck
Note for future renters , make sure you get a gas golf cart if that is your option as there is not an area to charge an electric golf cart. Would be nice to have a rug on the inside near the patio door to pick up any extra sand from being tracked in. We could have used a pizza cutter and some pot holders. Other than these nit picky things the views and stay was amazing ;). Great time of year to go before the spring breakers arrived.

60th birthday trip
The back deck and access to the beach were amazing. The sliding glass door is very hard to open and close. The kitchen and living and dining areas were roomy and comfortable. You need a few more coffee mugs. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were ok. No problem for us since we only stayed 3 nights but they could use some updating. The unit was clean and airy. Overall a great place.

We have stayed here numerous times and love the unit and location. However the sliding glass door is badly in need of replacing. We could hardly open or close it and the maintenance man couldn't do anything with it. We had trouble with it the last time we stayed here and nothing has been done about it.

We love Sugar Dunes!
Sugar Dunes units can’t be best. We stay several times a year in various years. You walk right out to a private beach access. Outside closet was stocked with some sand toys and boards. We always rent chairs and umbrellas from Spyglass to avoid carrying too much to the beach. Property managers were excellent! Condo is a little outdated and not super clean but we came for the view and the 30A food and didn’t plan to stay inside much.

This was our first time staying at "Beach Life" although we have stayed the last 4 years at Sugar Dunes. We had a great time and the condo was great. The only things I missed were the beach chairs were NOT included in the rental fee and the 2 ensuite bathrooms have not been updated to match the rest of the condo. All in all it was a wonderful week at one of our favorite beaches!
