The place was as advertised, which is always nice. My one nitpick would be all the rules. My wife and I pride ourselves on leaving places as clean, if not cleaner, than we found them. Some of these rules seemed a little heavyhanded, such as don't just put ice cubes in the sink but make sure they are melted. I totally understand the need for rules but that many of them certainly subtracted a little from our enjoyment.

Great location, beautiful neighborhood! Just a short walk to the beach and a short bike ride to all the local shops. We rented e-bikes and that was definitely the best way to get around. Easy checkin process and close parking. We enjoyed the constant ocean view tremendously. Great, clean property.

Solid Value Option on Emerald Coast
This condo proved a solid option for an affordable stay in Seagrove Beach. Located just behind Sugar Dunes, the condo was well-appointed (even umbrellas and great beach chairs), comfortable, clean, and had modern appliances and amenities. The beds were particularly good. The owner made everything easy and provided full instructions (both printed and in PDF) for everything we’d need for our stay in the area. We had two very minor instructional needs, and her responses were rapid and understanding. Staying here gets you a good discount rate on bike, golf cart and equipment rentals, and you’re close to local stores like Publix, without being in the full bore madness of Seaside in peak season.It’s important to understand the beach access rules these days. Coming from places a little more relaxed than this area, I was surprised about how zealously the resorts and residents guard their beach stretches. If you want to so much as a set up a single chair you are in for a bit of a hike up or down the beach, though you can walk or swim anywhere the water is actually breaking. This condo is located very close to the public boardwalk to the beach, which helps, and the owner helpfully “translated” all this in a series of provided maps. It’s nothing against the property at all, and I’d argue the condo represents a good intersection of value and access, but just bear this in mind if you have mobility or endurance issues.I’d stay here again. Thanks for the lovely experience, owners.

Clean and good location
Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Good location and space. We enjoyed using the chairs and umbrella. Please notice that you will have to bring or buy everything you need, including toilet paper (there was only enough for one day), soap, and beach towels. Also, the listing did say there was a hot tub, and there was no hot tub on the property, which the owner apologized for. There was a lot of unnecessary info that was sent out before we arrived, and a folder of info at the condo, but more concise, helpful info would have been better. Overall, good place, but plan to bring EVERYTHING you need.

Great amenities!
Condo is small (can technically sleep up to 8 but I'm not sure where all those people would put their stuff!) and a little outdated, but very clean! Had a nice view considering it is set back from the beach behind 2 buildings. The beach access was the most disappointing for us. Description says steps from the beach and it is - however, it is only a few steps away if you want to walk on the beach. If you want to sit on the beach you need to walk quite a distance in either direction to the public beach access. The facility does offer shuttles which seemed to work well for others; we have a daughter who uses a wheelchair so the shuttle did not work for us. The owner was very helpful in getting us information on accessible beach access, however it did require us to drive to the accessible beach a few miles away. The amenities offered at the complex were great - from the beach shuttle to tennis courts, shuffle board and 2 pools (although I only saw one and never found the second).

Overall, I enjoyed my stay. The view was better than I expected. However, it wasn’t until 10 days before my stay that I received literature describing “access” to the beach. Unfortunately, the pictures in the posting were deceptive. The picture of the wooden ramp to the beach showed an accessible access to the beach. As a senior with mobility issue the illusion of access to a beach was enticing. When I received literature from Joy it indicated access to the beach involved a “detour” to the small public beach a block away. I was very disappointed. In summary, the condo itself was very nice, the beach access was not.

Extremely Limited Beach Access
When we arrived, the warm condo smelled of wet dog and dog urine. Later when we tried to lay down for sleep, we found sand in the bed sheets. The owner did not respond to our texts for hours, until she asked whether we wanted the housekeeper to come. We said yes since we were not allowed to change bed sheets ourselves, and the unhappy housekeeper came next morning and spent an hour changing them.
The most important inaccuracy of the listing is the beach access. The dry part of the beach by the condo is private, so you must walk 5-10 min on the steep wet area of the shoreline to reach a public beach which is very small. A guard stays on the beach near the condo to ensure no one uses it. You can access the water, but not leave any items on the beach itself. If you want to set up on the beach (aside from the very small east one) it would require a bike or car ride to another local and public beach.
Other problems that the owner ignored when we texted were showers that were out of hot water after 10 minutes, no hot tub on the property as listed, A/C is locked at 70 and cannot be lowered, and toiletries such as soap, garbage bags, laundry soap, and toilet paper are exceptionally small to accommodate only 1 day for a family.
Overall the condo is uncomfortable, sparsely furnished, and without easy walking beach access, so it is definitely not worth returning when there. Do not recommend.

Beach Access!
I chose this property because of the easy access to the beach. My sister is 72 and has bad knees and IBS. After we had booked the property I called the host to ask about a company that will set up chairs for us each morning. I was told that we couldn’t use a setup company because we couldn’t sit on the beach! If I hadn’t called her about the setup we wouldn’t have known this ahead of time. There is a guy there that told us we would be arrested if we sat our chairs anywhere on that beach. I just think it shouldn’t be advertised as 2 steps from the beach. We were able to go after 5 and watch the sunset in the evenings.
