Why Betty Fischer chose Beaches of South Walton
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 numerous, fabulous restaurants.
What makes this house unique
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. Or watching fireworks for miles around on special occasions. Biking on our many bike trails, to our wonderful outdoor restaurants and activities.
It is also pretty cool to go outside and pick fruit off of the fruit trees. The grandchildren love it. For all of you familiar with the best lemons in the country, the Meyer Lemon, there is a tree. This lemon ripens in the fall.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Good Morning Betty,
I want to tell you how much we enjoyed your beautiful home a couple of weeks ago. It was so warm, inviting, and beautiful. We sat in the den and kitchen everyday and created lots of memories. The wedding we attended in Seaside was beautiful, right on the beach, but we basically had our own private beach right across the street and took advantage of it being less crowded.
You were most helpful through this entire experience. We will definitely go back!
Sincerely,
Marta

Wonderful!

Awesome Trip!
My family and I had a great time during our week at Palm Cove. The house was very clean when we arrived and if we had any questions, Betty would get back to us right away. The location was amazing and the entire area was family/pet friendly. We will definitely be going back!
Guestbook Comment
We had a wonderful time, the house is very close to the beach (although those stairs up can be tiring :)). We visited nearby seaside and rosemary beach just a short drive to many wonderful locations and conveniences. The hot tub was wonderful - we spent a lot of time in there. And the double headed shower - well lets just say we still miss that and are wondering if we can get one for our house. We would definately use this house again in the future. Very very happy.
Not exactly what we envisioned!
Received a few emails and reviews after we booked this house that the hot tub no longer worked (but there was a portable hot tub available, more to come), faulty smoke detectors, and a few days before our arrival that there was water damage and that workers would be there during our stay. I emailed the owner asking about options and she did offer a refund. Since we were a few days away, we had to choose between canceling or dealing with the disruption. The owner did agree to a minor discount and stated the the noise and disruption would not be bad. Arrived on Sunday, workers arrived Monday at 7:00 a.m., cranked up the music, and the repair noise was anything but "not bad", it was LOAD. They worked until 3:30 to 4:30 on Monday and Tuesday, but did not show up the rest of the week. I am assuming the owner eventually called them off. The portable hot tub that was advertised was in three boxes in a closet on the roof. We chose not to assemble it ourselves. Part of the appeal of this house was the roof deck, with the hot tub. We never used the roof. Limited furniture and no hot tub.The house layout itself was functional, plenty of space, the Master was awesome, the beach access was great. I will say that we had a good week, but I do not feel I got what was advertised with the house. I will not rent this house again.
Great vacation home with views
Wow, this home has lots of space, and the balconies on the second and third floor are ideal for relaxing and enjoying the sea breeze. The home easily accommodated ten. The bedroom layout on the second floor is great. The master bedroom on the third floor is huge, and the master bath has very spacious with wonderful shower and bath. The roof-top sitting area offers incredible views of the water. This house offers the highest vantage point of any house around. We really enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, and the short walk to the beach was no problem, even with carrying surfboards and paddleboards to the beach. Friends staying in the more congested surrounding areas chose to join us at the more relaxed, uncrowded beach just steps away from the house. Lots of space for parking, and the outside shower (with hot water) was really convenient. The owner was great and very helpful. I would definitely recommend this home and location to friends and family.
An ok property
The house is just ok... doesn't seem to be maintained as well as I would have thought for the neighborhood it is located in.. and it is quite a walk to the beach even though it is across the street you still have to go down a bunch of steps! The towels and chairs provided were old and heavy to carry a long distance so we just rented them all when we got to the beach! Also not much seating in the main living room area for such a large house!
Expected more......and hot tub out of service
The photos of home are beautiful. Unfortunately, the home was very staged for the photos and not as comfortable as it appears. After reading recent reviews, it appears that the owner had been having problems with the hot tub in March. We stayed the first week in April and were notified as we were driving in that day that the hot tub was out of service. We have teens and chose the beach house because it had a hot tub and the whole family was disappointed that the main attraction was out of service. The furniture on the roof top consisted of uncomfortable wooden chairs or plastic chairs. We didn't find any lounge chairs and the owner did provide after we asked. As other renters, we experienced the smoke detector chirping and went out to purchase batteries because we couldn't find any in the house. The living area has limited seating - even our group of six did not have room to gather without pulling in some dining table chairs, the dryer takes hours to dry clothes, the toaster was broken, the blender and several dishes were dirty, many of the lightbulbs were burned out, the gas grill ignitor was broken, some of the chairs on the front porch were rusty and left rust marks on clothing / towels. The owner was in contact during our stay and is aware of issues. Pretty house, nice location, needs TLC.
