Great vacation there!

Our family spent this week at Pure Joy celebrating Thanksgiving. It was very roomy and comfortable. The carriage house was an added bonus for us when we needed a little quiet. The kitchen was perfectly stocked and we cooked some amazing meals there. The only complaint we had and it wasn’t anyone’s fault is trash didn’t pick up on Thursday because of the holiday and the cans were overflowing when we got there. Thanks for the sweetest time!

Great trip to Florida

The property was perfect for our large family. It was close to the beach with a pool that was across the street. We were also able to enjoy the fire pit and make s’mores.

Great stay on 30A

This house was great for our party of 12, consisting of three adult couples and six teenagers. Right across from the pool, just a short stroll to the beach and bikeable to Seaside. We had a problem with the AC in the backhouse that the property manager resolved very quickly, and she also quickly replaced a few kitchen staples that were missing. Overall a great stay!

Great House and Location

Pure Joy fit all the needs of my family. The walk to the beach was direct and not as crowded and I had thought. Wi-Fi did not work very well during the day but seemed better in the evening. It’s definitely one of the better homes I’ve staying in over the years. I look forward to visiting again.

We had a wonderful time here

This is a wonderful place to stay. It is less than a 4 minute walk to the beach access. The neighborhood pool is literally at the end of the driveway. We had young children with us, so we hit the beach all morning, had lunch and then spent the afternoon at the poolThe house is well set up, but there is only one bedroom on the main floor. The rest are upstairs, but they are all beautiful and worth the climb. We did not use the additional apartment above the garage but did a walkthrough and it set up verry well with a small kitchen, living area, full bathroom and bedroom.There is a screened porch on the front and back, and we used both, especially in the mornings.Kitchen is well set up, with every appliance you could ever need. There is a Publix grocery store about a 5 minute drive away that really outstanding. Short drive to Seaside; the walk is about 20 minutes.We appreciated the beach chairs and the exceptional internet speed. Overall, a very positive experience.

Perfect house and location!

This was the perfect house and location for our stay in Seagrove Beach! This house has it all. Plenty of space for all of our guests and all the amenities that we needed. This house is perfectly located only 1 mile from Seaside and .25 from the beach. We also enjoyed the fact that the beach access is not as congested as other parts of 30A. The neighborhood pool is right across the street and the neighborhood tennis/pickle ball court is only a 5 minute walk from the house. The carriage house was a great private space for me to do virtual work all week long without bothering our guests in the main house. I would highly recommend this house to anyone who wants very close beach access without paying the higher prices of just 1 mile down the road.

4 day weekend

Great house, very clean, with nice amenities! Great location. A few little things to consider before the next guest comes. There were ants and bugs in the In law house, a loose electrical box in the main house (kitchen), and the bushes need to be trimmed in the driveway. Overall loved the house and the location!!

One of the best I’ve stayed in!

Scenic Stays gets a A+ from my family and I. They went out of their way to assist me with the trip at every turn and checked in multiple times during the stay. We encountered a problem with the washing machine but they made arrangements for me to do laundry at another residence they manage. The last night we were there, the A/C in the carriage house was not cooling properly but they immediately had someone come out and look at it. The house itself was a wonderful fit for our family and I will definitely consider staying there again, and using ScenicStays.

Spring Break 2023

Pure Joy lived up to its name! We had a great week and our teenage daughters really enjoyed the viper close proximity to the pool, the beach and Seaside. It’s a great location and with lots of amenities. The beach chairs and bikes are a HUGE plus. And the carriage house was ideal for our extra guests. The management team was very quick to respond and address the couple minor issues we had. We would definitely rent this house again!

Don’t mention carriage house.

The stay was great, and the house was beautiful but the carriage house shouldn’t be mentioned since we couldn’t stay there.
