Walk to Beach

I have stayed in many VRBO rentals but I have never not received information on getting into the booked place. It happened this time. We sat in the driveway trying to get a hold of the host through VRBO and all you could do was type a message. So we sat some more. We finally found him on People Finder, called, and were lucky he answered. I did text him later with a few issues and he did respond by text. The place could use some TLC- broken blind at the door and light bulbs replaced. Two of the chairs in the dining area and the rug need replaced. The bathroom could use some new non-white towels because white is too hard to keep clean in a beach house. Not sure why the toilet makes weird noises plus squeaky noises when it flushes, but it does. There was no air conditioning filter in the air conditioner. Please get more teaspoons in the kitchen – there were only four. Personally, I would get rid of anything in the house that doesn’t have a beach theme. Less often more. It would’ve been nice to sit outside sometimes, but the backyard does not lend itself to sitting due to the furniture condition. You can walk to the beach and several restaurants from the rental. The Red Bar has excellent food and the Black Bear Bread Company has delicious bread!

Great stay in Grayton Beach

My daughter and I had a great Mother/daughter trip over New Years. This was a great location. While it was on the main road, it was quiet as it was behind the main house. We loved the use of bikes and beach chairs. While the bikes are old and most needed air in the tires, we were able to find 2 and enjoyed riding every day. Very clean and nice house. I would recommend staying here.

Better than it started

Upon arriving, there was a family in the main house. I thought it might be the owner, but it was another guest. They were unaware of additional arrivals and were questioning how we ended up with the place and if we knew the owner. Reading between the lines, they must know the owner. He told me they had switched the coffee maker with the Keurig in our space and wouldn’t be trading back while they were staying. I’m still not sure why he told me that. I didn’t receive the passcode for the lock prior to arriving, even though we arrived well after check-in. And there was dirty underwear on the washing machine. Despite all this, we committed to make the most of this adventure since we were exploring a different part of 30A this year. Everything was a new experience. We’re used to staying on the beach, so the walk to this beach would take some getting used to. After a couple of days, the walk wasn’t so bad. But I brought less stuff to the beach each day. In addition to the above, there are some minor things that are/were easily resolved. - Broken springs on hide away bed (told owner who would have it repaired the following week) - Torn sheets for hide away bed (replaced same day) - Balcony door didn’t lock (funky mechanism, but after discussing with owner it was easier) - Freezer door doesn’t always close fully - Several beach chairs and toys should be thrown out due to rust and generally broken - Internet was out (no tv, Internet, streaming) - Kitchen isn’t well appointed and there is no dishwasher - Washer and dryer are shared with main house tenants - Coffee maker doesn’t work - 3 bikes don’t work (fused chain, broken rear wheel, flat tire) must also me shared with tenants in main house Even with everything listed, I am still rating this as an overall 4 out of 5. The items listed show that the unit is being used and enjoyed. Maintenance of additions could be better, but one shouldn’t rent a place in the hopes they get bikes and beach toys. The owner was very quick with responses and resolution for things we informed him about; and the others weren’t a big enough deal to pester him during the stay. I would consider staying here again if I didn’t have to haul everything to and from the beach each day.

Cozy loft space

Overall a good rental in a great location. Nice to have garage and multitude of beach toys and accessories (sand toys, wagon, chairs, umbrella, etc) Right off main street but tucked away for quiet nights. Only thing that was missing was an outdoor space. There are chairs and end table but if another group stays in front house their cars can kind of block it. If outdoor patio or sitting area is not overly important - def would recommend this house.

Very nice experience in a quaint beach town.

We enjoyed the bicycles and rode on the bike paths to other nearby towns and through the Mount Washington Park. So many natural areas and plenty of choices nearby for eating out. Black Bear Bread Co was a breakfast favorite!

Perfect Getaway

No need to drive much. You can walk where you need. a third of mile to beach, same to restaurants. Didn't even use the provided bikes, but will next time. Gracious communicative host. Great location. Taking my wife back next time for longer stay, as was there only on business this time. My preferred spot from now on, compared to others, as I go to that area a few times a year. Quintessential Gulf Property. and very well appointed. Obviously experienced host has thought of everything you might need or want.

Great Location

The garage apartment is in one of the best locations at Grayton Beach. It's a very short enjoyable walk to the beach. There's access to several bikes, chairs, and beach toys in the garage. There were no problems with hot water or the air conditioning. There was some confusion on the different times for the check-in. One last VRBO email said 3:00pm check-in and the sheet in the room shows 4:00pm but I was able to reach the owner and this worked out fine. There was some confusion on the garage code and door code but I was able to easily talk to the owner and get this worked out. The owner was very nice. The internet password listed on the table in the garage apartment is different from the one that's listed on the check-in email but the one in the apt. worked fine. Me and my two adult children had a wonderful week with some great bike rides and enjoyable walks.

Why they chose this property

Historic Grayton beach home, built in 1934. Grayton Beach was founded in 1890.
Was a hide-out for Bonnie & Clyde in their day. Nearly all of the original beach homes are still standing and in good shape, most are one or two story. A few newer homes on water front are up to four stories. The ambience of a traditional historic REEL Florida beach community is still present. Park and walk to nearly any where you or family/friends wanna go.
