Beautiful and comfortable beach house to make a week’s stay so nice & relaxing. Beds and furniture are great quality and comfortable. Kitchen is stocked with everything you need and more. The porches are perfect for relaxing and reading. Great location within walking or biking distances to beach and Seaside. Could not have had a more enjoyable stay!
The home was perfect for our group of 10, including several teenage boys. The gathering spaces were roomy and the smart TVs were appreciated. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with new appliances and a separate ice maker. The owner provided clear instructions from check-in to departure and was responsive when questions arose during the week. We will definitely return!
This was our 4th stay in this rental house. We love it! Three outdoor porches, four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms meant everyone had space to gather or have a quiet spot. Things we really love about this house: Close to the beach and closer to the neighborhood pool. Quiet, family neighborhood.A well-stocked kitchen for cooking! Extremely comfortable den furniture that easily seats 8.Excellent patio furniture that seats 8 or more.Third floor barrel chairs were very comfy.Tasteful decor, uncluttered. Good pillows on each bed, comfy beds and bedding. The gas grill was clean! A responsible property manager! He called within minutes of my text on Sunday evening. We liked the new white exterior paint. We thought we would miss the screening on the front porch, but instead, there was better air flow with the overhead fans.
Beautiful home nestled in a quiet neighborhood. Very serene and coastal. Bikes were provided and we rented a golf cart for quick and easy access to restaurants and beach.
The owners were very responsive and although we had a small issue on check in, they were very accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect!! The house was equipped with everything!!! and the decor is so nicely done~!!
The owner is super responsive to questions, etc! The home is actually prettier than in the photos! Located in our favorite neighborhood that is a quick walk or ride to the beach. This house does not dissapoint!
Our family of 5 adults have stayed here three summers. There's plenty of room for more people. Four BRs, 3.5 baths, lots of comfy seating in the den and outside on the three porches, a chef's kitchen, bikes and beach chairs! Meticulously clean. Can't wait to return next summer!
We love staying in this neighborhood = Grove by the Sea and this home is truly special. Room enough for our 6. we could have added a few more cousins. :-}
This is the house we always book for our vacations when it's available. It's in the most convenient area for us on 30A - close to Seaside and Publix and yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood away from the traffic. Easily walkable to the beach as well.
Really enjoyed our stay. House exceeded all our expectations. Easy check-in and communications with our host. House was well equipped and in great location. This was our third stay in the Grove neighborhood. We had a nice quiet week during our off season stay. Close to beach, town and enjoyed neighborhood pool.
Overall, it is a very beautiful property that is well located in a nice and quiet neighborhood. The manager was very responsive to all of our requests, only issue was the amount of hot water seemed low after our shower. Otherwise, we look forward to our next stay at the property.
We loved this house and it's layout. The house was comfortable and clean and we love the neighborhood (not our first time - liked this house better!). The house provides bikes and the ice machine is a great bonus. Communication with the owner was excellent. We'll look forward to booking again. :)
The house was beautiful, lots of porches, quick walk to pool, and easy access to beach. Only complaint was minimal towels provided at the site requiring us to wash a load each day to make sure we had enough. Everything else was great.
Beautiful beach house, many amenities, great location. Our family just loved this house! Plenty of space to spread out, relax and have fun! We felt very welcomed. The best Premier Hosts, fast and friendly communication. We can't wait to return next year.

About the host
Hosted by Ken LoCicero
Owners Ken & Amie live in the Metro Atlanta area and are the original owners of the home. They built this house to enjoy with family and friends and look forward to some day retiring here. Together they love spending time with family and friends at the beach, lazy days on the shoreline, walks to Seaside for coffee in the morning or dinner in the evenings, and yoga at the local fitness studio, "Balance".
Why they chose this property
The small subdivision sets back off 30A and provides a buffer from all the hassle and bustle during busy tourist seasons making it a peaceful setting to relax on your porch with a book and let the children play outside. Then when you want to get in on all the action down at Seaside, its just a 1.5 mile bike ride or walk away!
What makes this property unique
The pool is only two lots over, & the neighborhood is quiet with no through traffic making it safe for kids to walk or bike to the pool, beach, Seaside Community, or their neighbors homes.
