30A is a scenic stretch of highway down Florida's beautiful gulf coast between Destin and Panama City Beach. The highway connects the coastal villages of South Walton through the undisturbed beauty of rare dune lakes, sugar white sand, and emerald-blue waters indigenous to the area.

As there are no lifeguards at the pool, children must be monitored by an adult. Children under the age of 5 must wear swim diapers when at the pool.

The following areas require wristbands be worn by all guests (10 years of age and older): the private beach access through Sunset Beach, The Village tram, and the new resort pool at The Village across from Building G.

Location is convenient for array of amenities. Private beach access via tram is limited to a small section in front of the gated community across the street. You need to arrive early to get a spot close to water. The #1 disappointment of our stay was the uncomfortable mattress!! FYI, Checkout requires you wash your own dishes (no dishwasher) & empty trash. Parking could easily be a problem during busy times of year due to sharing parking lot with retail shops located on 1st floor of the village.

We were unfortunately only here for a night driving thru. The area is beautiful. People so friendly. Lots of walkable restaurants and places to get a drink. The Shore to Please property was cute and well appointed even though it is tiny. Think hotel room size. Still was perfect for us. The only recommendation to the property owners would be to provide a printed copy in the condo of instructions on the resort and beach access. I had to keep pulling up my email packet and trying to find instructions for the various resort and beach access (small problem I know) but I usually like to unplug when traveling. Definitely would stay here again and have already recommended to a friend!

Great location in Seacrest
We booked this last minute and were lucky it was available since it was spring break. The location on 30a is excellent and easy to walk to restaurants, shops and the beach. It would be nice if the unit was cleaner. It was small things like hair in the bathroom / shower and crumbs behind the appliances. Nothing crazy but still think those are easy things to fix / clean. The bed was comfortable and the host was very responsive. To be fair we did not tell him about the cleaning issue because we just cleaned it ourselves. I would stay here again.

The room was clean and neat. Smaller than what you would think by looking at the photos. A room at a Residence Inn by Marriott is roomier than this unit. The bathroom sink was halfway clogged and the toilet handle was halfway broken. We are provided with dishwasher soap …but there is no dishwasher!!There is no “view” from the room unless you want to look at the hallway. Granted the add doesn’t mention a view. Ought to read the adds carefully The most disappointing issue was not having direct access to a beach. Not within a walking distance. Rosemary and Seacrest beaches are private. You need to drive to Inlet beach The neighborhood is way overpriced and of meh quality Restaurants are way overpricedNext time will stay at a vacation unit close to inlet beach or stay at a nearby hotel and drive here if have some extra to throw away

Modest room in great location
There were only a few negatives and they were minor so I'll list them first. There appeared to be a small amount of water damage behind the bed, below the A/C unit. There was a long hair on the floor of the shower when we arrived.Aside from that, we believe the room offers good value for its price. The location is the clear and above greatest benefit. You're a very short walk ( 2 minutes) away from a small grocer, shops, drinks and food. The tram stop to the beach is ride outside your door. Inside the room, the TV is large and great for movies or sports. The A/C unit works great. The hot water and water pressure in the shower were great as well.My only recommendation to the owner(s) would be a small pamphlet or printed instructions that mirror what's sent in the email. Having a physical copy to refer to would be nicer than needing to find my email each time I had a question.
