We’re delighted to hear your family enjoyed Always On My Mind, especially its ideal location and generous space for a larger group. It’s always a pleasure hosting guests who appreciate the comfort and convenience of the property. We would be honored to welcome you back on your next visit to the area.
This is a perfect property for a large family. Especially if anyone needs a separate living space for work etc. The cottage was a perfect area to get away for a little while.

Thank you for sharing such wonderful feedback. We are thrilled to hear the home was every bit as beautiful as expected and that the photos reflected it accurately.

We come to 30A every year and have stayed in a variety of homes. Always on My Mind was definitely our favorite. There are so many things we loved about this home. This is the only home, we have rented, where the living area is on the ground floor. We were surprised how much we loved this feature. The patio was large enough to actually use and was set up with a nice dining table and a lovely porch swing. Having seen grassy area for the kids to play was so nice. The home also has two living areas which we really enjoyed as well. Being oceanfront is very important to us since we are traveling with children so we don’t have to carry all of our gear in the car when we go to the beach. We also loved the pool and used it every day. The host was a great communicator which is also very important to me. We didn’t have any problems, but it was so nice to get a quick response when we had questions. The host was also great to work with for our vendors who brought groceries, baby gear and the beach bonfire. As soon as we nail down our dates for next year we will rent Always on My Mind again.

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback. It means a lot to hear that Always On My Mind has become your favorite home. We’re thrilled the ground‑floor living area, spacious patio, grassy yard, and dual living spaces made your time here so comfortable — especially with little ones. Being right on the beach truly makes the days easier, and we’re glad the pool and beach setup added to the experience. It was a pleasure staying connected throughout your trip and coordinating with your vendors. We’d be honored to welcome you back once your dates are set.
Perfect vacation at this beautiful home! Everything as advertised!

It means a lot to us that Always On My Mind was as advertised and that it helped make your stay stress-free and memorable. We’d be honored to host you again—come back anytime to make more great memories!
We had a delightful time. The beach access was amazing, the property was in a fantastic location. The property management team was very quick to respond and was very helpful for the few items we needed any assistance with. We appreciated the easy check out. Our only critique would be the complete lack of cell service in the home, but it was a welcome disconnect from the world and to enjoy our time with our family there. We will be back.

Our family very much enjoyed our stay! The house is in a great location. We had a couple issues with the HVAC not working and outside faucet being broken (unable to rise our feet) but the property management group handled the issue quickly.

Perfect access to the beach. House was just right for our group. The house was well supplied with appliances and utensils. It was great to have a beach setup each day as part of the rental as well as plenty of bikes for the group. We had a great family stay. We’ll be back.

I am so happy that your family had a good vacation at “Always on My Mind”. We have tried to make our house friendly for family stays or other groups of people.
Our stay was absolutely amazing. It was beachfront luxury. We enjoyed the bikes and chairs and umbrella that were set out on the beach. We had all that we needed for our large family and had a wonderful time. Only issue was that the air conditioner went out for 2 nights, but the management company was prompt at communicating with us and fixing the issue.

I have been coming to Walton County for 30 years. This week was the best weather I have experienced. Great house. Lots and lots of people on the beach, if you like that..
The downstairs ac needs to be checked out.

Our family had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. The home exceeded our expectations. It was well stocked with lots of cooking utensils etc. Our property contact, Amanda was very responsive and helpful. The floor of the upstairs balcony, which is beautiful and fully furnished, was very dirty, and the house cleaner came to clean it for us, which was very nice of her. Apparently they don't include this in their normal cleaning routine, and it should definitely be cleaned since dust and dirt collect there. The view from the house was perfect and the weather was good, so we were outside a lot. The stairs to the beach were damaged by the hurricane last fall, but we managed to get up and down them during our stay. We loved our time at Seacrest beach and hope to return sometime in 2021.

Thank You Jane for staying with us and for taking time to leave such a nice review! Your positive feedback is greatly appreciated and we're so happy to hear you had a good time at this Seacrest Beach rental. We hope for the opportunity to host you again next time you vacation on 30A!
The property itself was fine for the most part BUT we were living for a week next to an active construction site, maybe 8 feet away? They arrived at 7 and worked til 5, including Saturday and Sunday!!! Our time spent in the house was filled with heavy machinery, nail guns, hammers, saws, and loud voices. Thank goodness we didn't have a baby or small child who needed to nap!. The workmen had their trucks and cars parked on either side of the driveway making turning out either way onto BUSY 30A dangerous and stressful to say the least. The contract mentioned possible construction issues, BUT the property management company was well aware of the construction next door and never mentioned how it would so negatively impact all aspects of our family vacation. Greed involved here. NEVER will I rent from them again.

Hello,
Thank you for the feedback of your most recent experience with us! We are happy to hear that you did not have any issues with the home itself. The construction has been a very slow and ongoing process as you can see from the reviews below. As a company we have in the “important things to know” that there is construction all of over 30A and we added to this personal listing that there is construction next door when we were made aware in hopes that our future guests would be informed. I want to apologize that your stay with us wasn’t enjoyable due to an outside issue. Your experience with us means a lot to us and we would love to invite you back to any of our properties in the future. Our team will be happy to answer any of your questions prior to booking your next trip.
