This place could not have been more perfect!! Pool right outside your back door, golf cart to take you to the beach or wherever you want to go. Close proximity to restaurants and Grayton Beach State Park! Order your groceries for delivery and you are set! The house has everything you could possibly need. My favorite was the upstairs porch swing! We will be back! We loved 30A!
A spacious house which worked well for our stay of 30 days. A couple of items need attention. The window sills were very dirty and in need of cleaning. The sectional couch needs cleaning as it has some stains and is a bit tired overall. Otherwise everything was clean, well stocked and in good condition. The golf cart was most useful. The pool started being heated on March 1 which coincided with the increase in families visiting weekends and for Spring Break.
This is our 12th year visiting 30a in the Fall. This was our favorite location. Very clean and a nice quiet neighborhood. Golf cart was great for beach and getting around to restaurants and shopping. We love the Blue Mountain Beach area and this home was perfect for our family of four. That being said, it would accommodate many more comfortably.

Thank you for the five-star review, Gabriel. We appreciate the recommendation and hope you return to By The Sea again soon.
Fantastic place….clean and couldn’t’ be closer to pool.
We had a great stay here. We had 4 kids under 19 yoa and they all loved the proximity to the pool which the gate to the pool is right outside the back door! Golf cart and bikes were a big hit and necessary since the beach isn’t a short walk. We’d stay here again for sure.

Hi Jeff, we are thrilled to hear you had such a great stay. We hope you visit By The Sea again soon!
Very nice area and wonderful house. We would go there again in a heartbeat.
Nevertheless, we have 2 small things that would have made our stay even better:
More information about the area and the many possibilities on site and an additional, fourth bike so that we could get out and about with the whole family.

Everything was perfect from booking to checking out. The property is in an ideal location. The golf cart is very handy for getting around the community. We already have booked another vacation this spring at By the Sea!

Kurt, we are so happy you had a great stay at By The Sea. The home is fantastic, as is the community. The golf cart is a great addition to this home, especially for quick trips to Seaside! We look forward to your visit this spring.
We enjoyed our stay so much! The location is great if you have smaller children. We were so close to the pool which made it easy for lunch/ nap time. We enjoyed Gulfview Heights Beach Access a little bit more than the one suggested and it was the same distance. The golf cart was great and a must for the area. The house had everything we needed!

One of our favorite vacations yet. Home was perfect, clean and well appointed and in a great location.
We loved this property! It was clean, well kept and tucked away in a family friendly neighborhood! Great for kids to ride their bikes and the close proximity to the pool was perfect. It was easy to get to beach with cart or bikes making it a non issue that we weren’t right on the beach. This place was wonderful and we’d book it again in a heartbeat!

We had such a great time at our stay this November! The house was in great condition and had great access to the pool area with plenty of amenities for a family! We used the bikes to ride to breakfast on our last day. The golf cart was Huge and so convenient when going back and forth from the beach. We will definitely be coming back!

We loved everything about this stay! The house was immaculate. The open floor plan was beautiful. The golf cart made traveling to the beach so much fun. I wouldn’t have it any other way. This house has everything you need and then some. Would definitely recommend and even come back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in By the Sea. The management company was extremely responsive and helpful and was able to accommodate our request to extend our stay. The home was very clean and proximity to pool was a huge plus. It is literally right outside the back door. Pleasantly surprised how quiet the neighborhood was as well. Even with the pool right behind the home, we never heard any pool noise. Would definitely recommend this home. We will stay here again.

Hi Leslie, thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an amazing review for By The Sea and Oversee. We hope to see you again soon.
Our family of 7 had the pleasure of staying at By the Sea over a long weekend. The house was perfectly located in the neighborhood directly across from the pool which our kids loved as they were able to go back and forth easily. Having a 6 person golf cart and bikes available at this property were so helpful and icing on the cake! We enjoyed every minute and loved that we could ride around to nearby beach access, restaurants and shops on the golf cart or bikes. Would highly recommend this beautiful home and Oversees! This company was amazing! Thanks for a wonderful stay and great memories for our family!!

We enjoyed our stay at this spacious, well-appointed home in Blue Mountain Beach. We loved that the pool was conveniently located just steps from the home and the beach is a 5-minute drive in the golf cart. The home was well-stocked with towels, linens and kitchen necessities. The community was quiet and relaxed. We didn't hear noise from the pool/cabana area even though it's located right behind the home. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this rental to others.

January 2020 Stay
Let me first say that our stay at By the Sea exceeded our expectations tremendously. My friends and I were afraid that not being right on the beach would cause us to not enjoy our vacation completely, however I am glad to say we were proven wrong. The location of the house was perfect. It was extremely nice to walk straight out the back door and be at the pool, hot tub, and community entertainment area. Amazing restaurants were a 4-5 minute golf cart ride away and there were two beach accesses that we could choose from, Blue Mountain and Santa Rosa, both within a couple minute golf cart ride or bike ride! Besides the location being excellent the house itself was extremely clean, and had everything we could need and more. The living and kitchen area is very spacious and great for entertaining with friends and family. The bedrooms were great size with good closet space and every room had a smart tv along with strong WiFi. We are thankful you shared your beautiful home and we will definitely be back!

We had a fantastic fall break trip! The house is absolutely gorgeous! Very tastefully decorated and very clean. The location was easily accessible to many great local restaurants. The neighborhood was quiet and chill and we were good with that. We really appreciated the golf cart included with the rental. It was about a 5-minute drive to the beach and we were able to easily park the golf cart at the Blue Mountain Public Beach Access. The neighborhood pool with access right out the back door was beautiful. We spent a couple of afternoons laying by the pool when the beach was too windy. Our teenagers loved the hot tub. Communication from the rental company was very thorough throughout the trip. We hope to be back!
