Year Purchased: 2005

Why the Owner Chose Seaside

We purchashed Palm Cove in May, 2005 to be near our son and his family in Santa Rosa Beach, FL. We loved the quiet community, private beach access, close to all of the Seaside activities and other communities, the bike paths and numberous, fabulous restaurants.

The Unique Benefits at this House

There is nothing more unique than sitting in the hot tub on the fourth floor Sun and Observation Deck, listening to the ocean sounds, smelling the wonderful sea air and watching the fabulous sunsets.

    • We had a great time on our vacation. This was a very nice rental house and a very good value. It is only a 3 minute walk to the beach! This area along 30A is very peaceful and away from the major traffic of Panama City Beach or Destin. One helpful hint - Bring your bikes and park your car for the week. This is a great house to relax in built in a great area to relax in.

    • Betty, We enjoyed the house very much. I think housekeeping needs to do a better job getting the house ready. We did not feel like the towels were clean or some of the beds. Pictures were missing in the Master bedroom. Just nails in the wall. The Master bedroom fridge had wine or something spilt inside of it. The additional carpet on the stairs was somewhat dangerous when it came unnailed. The beach chairs and toys were missing. How sad if someone who stayed there took these items. Just wanted to let you know a few things that needed to be addressed. As far as location, it was excellent. The beach was not crowded and the water was wonderful. The house was large enough for our group of 10. We loved the views from the roof and porches. It was nice to drive to Seaside or some of the other towns, without having to stay there in all the congestion. The house just needs a little TLC, but we loved the location and size. I would reccomend this house to others. After speaking with Betty, I know they are more than willing to take care of any needs you might have, if you are staying there. The price was great compared to other pricing in the area. The house is beautiful and location is great! Thank You Kimberly Ovilla, Texas

There were twelve people in our group, we had plenty of space. We had a great family vacation. Mary Ann (Copied from e-mail comment by Mary Ann)

    • Fabulous house, Betty! I'll be detailed here....first the location. It was out of all the traffic and was in a peaceful part of 30A. The access to the beach was excellent - my 2 year old walked it just fine. All the real estate surrounding is high-end and extremely well maintained. This house has some important things that we enjoyed, little things that mean a lot. It was well stocked with beach "stuff". It had two outdoor showers that kids LOVE, and quite frankly, I loved it too. Very earthy and it reminded me of a time when we stayed in St. Lucia. Coffee maker on the third floor was awesome. The large quantity ice maker thrilled us, and it kept us from having to go to the store for ice. This house is huge, and for the price, can't be beat. Literally four thousand square feet, and the balconies make it feel bigger. The master suite is truly a suite - we put our baby crib in the CLOSET...it's that big. Double head shower ...well, speaks for itself. The 4th floor hot tub is impressive, and we watched all the fireworks from up there. Amazing, really. All 12 of us up there, with views all up and down the coast. This house is well-maintained. It isn't pristine, with as many people as it holds on a regular basis, but it's kid friendly and clean and as well maintained as can be. Attractive beach art and a big screen tv downstairs is a good plus. Couple of thoughts....if you are taking a very elderly person, plan for him or her to stay on the bottom floor. The steps are tiresome. Also, remember that the beach has a steep set of 50 stairs to get to the sand, as is common up and down the panhandle coast from Rosemary on over west. We'd definately rent this house again, and the owners are very nice, accommodating people.

      Homeowner Response:
      Jan, thank you for such detail. You and your family was an absolute pleasure to have as guests. We look forwad to hearing from you the next time you "go to the beach". Betty and Herb

    • Betty, We had a great family vacation thanks to you and what your home had to offer! You have a beautiful home and the ease of doing business with you personally and your genuine concern that all our questions were answered prior to arrival were a true comfort before driving all that way with kids, dog, luggage, bikes, etc...:) Another memory for our family that we will never forget. The rest of the community and access to Seaside was terrific! I have recommended that area and your house to all those that have inquired where we stayed. Thanks again... Sincerely, Steve Sempowich and Family

    • I just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know that we really enjoyed our vacation, and our stay in your home. The location was beautiful, the home very comfortable and the weather was fantastic. Our favorite part was the rooftop deck. We spent every night up there, singing along with the guitar, enjoying the view and the hot tub. The 4th of July was the icing on the cake...we were able to view about 10 different fireworks displays from our vantage point. It was a perfect way to end our week.
