Perfect location and wonderful place to stay!

We loved staying here for a week. It was an amazing location with a private beach. Very large with plenty of room for everyone as well as a nicely stocked kitchen. Nice and easy walk to the beach across the street. The 4th floor balcony was very relaxing to sit with coffee in the morning and enjoying the evening breeze. Communication was amazing during our stay as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on 30A and this lovely home. It is nicely appointed with a well-equipped kitchen, welcoming feel and all the extras of home. We will definitely return to this exact home. Super easy walk to the restricted-access beach, overlooks a nice size pool and hosts a generously-sized veranda with an view of the ocean. A great choice for families! We LOVED it!!!

The property was perfect, but it was Renee who impressed us the most. She was beyond helpful. My daughter accidentally left $200 in the condo and Renee had the house keeper return to the property to retrieve the money and return it to us. We will definitely be back!

Perfect.

We had an excellent stay! The condo is beautifully appointed and the kitchen is very well stocked (there was even a cheese grater!). There were plenty of linens and towels for our family of six and Renee answered all of my questions before I even asked them. It was just a perfect week for our family and the condo made all the difference. We look forward to staying here again some day! Thank you Renee for everything!!

Lovely Condo

We loved staying here! I’m not sure what’s nicer, the condo or owners. Condo is beautifully done as well as kept. It has a great layout / space, well supplied and convenient 30a location. Private beach is inviting and can easily rent chairs or use the chairs provided in the condo. Owner’s communication is the best we’ve had, very thoughtful checking in to see if we needed anything and information provided prior to arriving as well as in a booklet left at the condo were detailed and helpful. Our 4 year old has already asked when we’re coming back! Such an enjoyable trip!

Perfect stay in the perfect place!

I knew this would be an exceptional stay as soon as I received check-in info from the owners! In 15 years of renting on 30A, we’ve never had such thorough, attentive, easy to reach hosts! The instructions, gate codes and info about the condo were all clearly laid out for us. Upon arrival, the condo was spotless and felt very fresh. The beds were super comfy, and there was plenty of seating in the family room for our party of 6! The walk to the beach is a breeze, and I loved sitting on the patio w my coffee and getting peek a boo views of the gulf! Overall, perfect stay…Would absolutely 10/10 recommend! Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Lovely condo on 30a

We had a great time at Seagrove Beach. The home was well appointed and beautifully decorated. We had everything we needed and then some. The location was great, being right across the street from the beach. The beach was not overly crowded like some places along 30a. We never had trouble finding a good spot at the beach. Renee was attentive anytime I had a question, and she was so friendly! She was probably the best homeowner that I’ve rented from since we began coming to this area 11 years ago. Thanks for renting your beautiful home to us!

About the host

Hosted by Renee Harmon & Michelle Bacot

Host profile image
Stay That Way, LLC is a partnership between myself, Renee' Harmon, and my sister Michelle Bacot. We live in Jonesboro, Arkansas and just bought this home in 2019. We have always vacationed in the area, and dreamed of having our own home at the beach. After losing both or our parents in 2018, we decided that time is too precious to wait another day. We feel so fortunate to have found this wonderful, spacious unit to enjoy spending time with our family and friends.

Why they chose this property

The units are quite large, 2200 sq ft - almost as large as the homes in the area. The condo building is beautiful, well made with quality materials and well maintained. The property is very close to the beach. There is also a pool that is heated early spring and fall. The rooms are large and although we come here to get together we also have the room to spread out. The beach is easy access and is rarely crowded as some of the other beaches in the area can be. It also has chair rental service which is great. It is in the heart of 30A, close to many restaurants, activities and shopping, but also not in a congested crowed area... a little more quiet and relaxing when needed.

What makes this property unique

Location, Beach Access and amenities makes the Villas at Seagrove a great place to stay. As for our 4th floor unit, we really enjoy having a view out to the Gulf. It is a great place to start your morning and great way to start your evenings.
