Beautiful location, beautiful home, and beautiful beach! House wasn't quite ready at check in but we were able to come in out of the rain. Wifi was out most of our stay however our peaceful time on the beach almost made up for it. We will definitely be back!

So glad to hear you'll definitely be back—and that the beautiful home, location, and beach made such an impression! We're sorry the house wasn't quite ready at check-in and that the WiFi was out for much of your stay; we've flagged both for our team to look into. That said, we love that the peaceful beach time helped make up for it. Thank you for your patience and the kind words—we can't wait to welcome you back!

Amazing beachfront views from this 2nd floor apartment. You have a private beach so you aren’t fighting a crowd of umbrellas when you get to the sand. The apartment is just as the pictures describe. The layout is the best I’ve ever stayed in with privacy for the Master and the Primary guest room. The patio has the highest quality chairs and seating with 4 bar height chairs to enjoy your view from with coffee or drinks. The host was checking in and prompt to address our only issue. We couldn’t find our bikes, so they had new bikes delivered within an hour.

What a fantastic review — thank you for sharing all the wonderful details! We're so glad the beachfront views and private beach access lived up to expectations, and that the layout offered the right balance of comfort and privacy for your group. It's also great to hear the patio setup made for the perfect spot to enjoy the views with a coffee or drink in hand. We're especially happy our team could quickly resolve the bike situation and keep your stay on track. We'd love to welcome you back for another amazing beachfront getaway!

Lovely, well-appointed, spacious condo with gorgeous ocean front views. Six adults and one baby were very comfortable. We have rented many condos on 30-A and this was by far the best. We loved the large well-furnished balcony that runs the full length of the condo facing the gulf. We had one small repair issue that was attended to immediately. Great communication with the management company. We will return!

One of the finest experiences to date!

I have stayed at multiple VRBOs and this was absolutely one of the finest! We wanted a place near the ocean with a great view and it was absolutely perfect!! It was even better than advertised if possible. Service was amazing with a free bonfire! They also left us a great welcome box with goodies. We would hope to get to stay there again.

The view and beach access of our Grovey by the Sea condo was excellent. The unit was very clean when we arrived. We have a son with severe lung disease and requested the air filters be changed before we got there. The request was handled promptly and cheerfully, for which we were grateful. The unit itself had some small maintenance issues but not enough for us to contact AvantStay while there, though.Would we come back, absolutely yes. It is located in a great area of 30A, within a couple miles of Seaside and very close to the new commercial area that holds Canopy Road Cafe, and also close to the Old Florida Fish House.If you just want to chill with an awesome beach view, and private beach access 3 minutes from your door, then this is your place.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the incredible beach view and easy private access—it's truly one of the best parts of Grovey by the Sea. We're especially glad we could promptly assist with the air filter request to help ensure a comfortable stay for your family. Your kind words mean a lot to us. We also appreciate the note about the small maintenance items and will be sure to look into those. It would be our absolute pleasure to host you again for another relaxing 30A getaway!

Beautiful Home/Family Friendly/Great managers

Beautiful Home/Family Friendly/Great managers. Our stay was awesome! Thank you for the gift box, there was something for everyone in it! This home has everything you need, from utensils to towels. Bikes were used every day we loved biking to Seaside for the food trucks. Pool and beach steps away never crowded. The beach front view never gets old. Bonfire that was included was very fun kids loved it! Booking and communication is great! 1000% recommended 30a beach girls and this beautiful home Kaylee and Jay, Grandma and Grandpa and 4 kiddos.

Spring break dream!

30a beach girls was so fun to work with. I mentioned it was my daughter's graduation this year. They surprised us with a balloon wall, the rental included a bonfire night and bikes. The rental was spacious, clean and had the most amazing views! It was also away from all the chaos happening in Seaside thankfully. None of us wanted to leave. - Amanda

Enjoyed our stay

I’ll start off with the location was great, the views were beautiful, condo was cute. We enjoyed our stay. My two negatives are, the house has three floors and other people stay in the other floors. So you don’t have entire “house” to yourself like I thought. So that was a bummer…and communication we only got by text message. Nobody answered when we called. Other than that, it was overall good

Location, ocean view, beach access, comfortable beds and nice bathrooms, proximity to restaurants and downtown seaside, communication with you, were all exceptional. The kitchen supplies were tired and in need of restocking. A couple of the chairs needed repair. Felt like end of season tired. Overall cleanliness when we arrived could have been better. Someone had spilled sticky red syrupy substance on front of door entry to 200 and was on walls and carpet. Not sure how cleaners did not see this. We had to clean entry before family arrived. All that said, we loved our trip and most everyone about the home.

Beyond all expectations

We had an amazing stay at this property with our family, including my spouse, four sons, and our oldest son's girlfriend. The location was fantastic, with an easy bike ride to seaside food trucks and shopping, and the convenient beach access downstairs made our beach outings a breeze. The house was well-equipped for cooking, making our stay even more enjoyable. It's a quick drive to Pier Park and other non-beach tourist spots. The accommodation was not only lovely but also spotless and comfortable. The 30a Beach Girls were fantastic and incredibly easy to communicate with. They provided numerous perks, including a free bonfire, making our experience even more special. We would highly recommend this wonderful place and look forward to returning to this specific beach location in the future!

Beautiful Condo

Grovey by the Sea is a lovely and spacious condo with beautiful ocean front views, a large terrace and space for all. The kitchen was adequately equipped, the property was clean and crisp and the beds very comfortable. Two beach chairs were set up each morning as promised. Don’t forget to bring beach towels! Some small suggestions for improvement- the TVs are all streaming based, so bring your passwords. We don’t usually watch TV on vacation but we had to watch the final four on our iPads. The gate codes are a little challenging to navigate so be patient. Finally, there were renovations taking place during our stay and a large dumpster blocked much of the assigned parking. It was not a big problem while we were there because the property was not at full capacity.

Thank you for the amazing vacation.

Perfect Location for 30a beach stay!! Arriving late at night my husband I are were curious if this rental would be a good as it looked on line. Indeed, it surpassed our expectations! Clean and inviting, we immediately felt at home in this charming condo overlooking the most intense and beautiful water. As walkers, we found the neighborhood to be so appealing and really enjoyed getting to know the various areas, the beach in both directions and so many good restaurants within our area. What wonderful views all hours of the day along with sunsets with different color palettes every evening! Beautiful pinks to purples. The kitchen was well-equipped and it was nice being able to do a load of laundry. We so enjoyed sitting on the deck coming in from our sightseeing. It was reassuring to be able to access the property managers, when needed, and they were very helpful with recommendations. We loved being in 30a and, having visited several neighboring areas, we would definitely come back to this rental any time we can get back to this part of Florida! The very enjoyable bonfire that is included was a very enjoyable and indulgent evening. It was home-away-from-home and we are excited at the idea of returning!

Dads 80th birthday!

We are return guests with 30a beach girls, first time to this beautiful gulf front condo. The location can't be beat at all. Priceless view and steps to beach. Having the elevator was essential to my father as he has Parkinson's. Condo was clean and well supplied as other homes have been. The trip was interrupted by the family staying downstairs. A witch with a stick up her butt for sure. First her daughters were leaving notes for our teen boys and ding dong ditching our door. We let it go since the kids were having fun. BUT the witch started banging on our door and very angry about the situation HER girls started. Then she yelled at us and said you need to go to bed it sounds like a herd of elephants are up here. THEN she called the management company that we had a dog. My father has Parkinson's and cancer, yes he has a service dog. My father served in Vietnam and has many awards and badges and guess what the army trained serve ice dog wears a vest with my dads ribbons. It couldn't be any clearer this dog is a service dog or what about the fact when this crazy witch arrived we were in the parking lot helping my dad who cant walk on gravel get to the elevator and she talked to us AND my husband and kids offered to help this heartless witch with her items. She could clearly see how handicapped my father was. SOOOO the owner of 30a Beach Girls comes at us irritated that we broke the rules until we invited her over to meet my father and his dog. She came over with an employee and even brought my dad a key lime pie. She apologized and tried to downplay the witch downstairs and apologize on her behalf. Heartless is what that witch is. She knew the condition of my dad and her daughters started the whole note and ding dong dash. The following days the witch was still a witch and even made snide remarks whenever we were at the beach. So my points would be awesome condo, awesome service, hopefully the witch doesn't rent again. It's sad that there has to be those types of people in the world they create drama and try to diminish others lights.
