Beach Buddy - Gulfview Heights on 30A, Heated Private Pool, Walk to Beach + Eat!

We had everything we needed, plus a pool! Bonus! The beds, even the sofa bed, were comfortable and we all had a very fun, restful stay. There was a minor issue, but maintenance was there to square things away within an hour. They were great! Would definitely stay with Ocean Reef again.

Location was great, was able to walk to beach. Enjoyed setting out on the deck late at night and just admire the stars.

We decided to check out a new spot for a family vacation this year and ended up booking this house for the week. The place was just as pictured and was perfect for our family needs. The kitchen was central to the main living and eating space so you always felt part of the conversations. While our little dude is 3, we did spot a pack and play in one of the closets which was nice they had there and we wouldn’t have had to bring if he was younger. The private pool was perfect to have for our afternoon swims, so we could enjoy the Florida sunshine while staying refreshed (the beach was a little too intense in the afternoon for our little one, so the pool was a must for us!) There was plenty of patio furniture surrounding the pool to lounge on both in the sun and under a shaded awning of the house. We also rented a golf cart during our week stay, and that was so handy to have to hop in and drive to dinners and cruise around town. Most of our dinners were had in the next beach town over in Grayton beach, which was a short 4miles in the golf cart on a slower road, so we felt safe traveling to and from with our little guy with us. It was a great experience and we’re looking forward to planning our next visit to this beautiful quaint neighborhood/town in Santa Rosa!

We had a great stay and will be back! Location is awesome and the pool was perfect for kids.

Beach Buddy was great! The pool was awesome, pool toys for the kids. The house was fantastic. Loved the set up and everything in the kitchen anyone would need. The High Chair and and Pack N Play were a huge plus. I would rent Beach Buddy again. Thank you, Susan

We stayed summer of 2022. It was quaint and exactly as pictured. The pool in backyard was small, but that was perfect for us. Easy beach access down the road. I would definitely stay again.

We had a very nice stay at Beach Buddy with my teen daughter and her three friends. The location is absolutely perfect among other crowded beaches on 30A. The house was nice and kitchen was well stocked with items to help stay there for the week. Pool was very nice and heated all week which was a big plus. Only issue we had was there is pool furniture could be more updated. Photos included nice lounge chairs but they were not there and there was no where to lay out by the pool in a chair so we had to buy our own. Lot was also overgrown with weeds and plants when we got there but was cleaned up by maintenance mid week which made it better. The house does wobble or shake a bit do just be ready for that as well. Overall Beach Buddy is a great value with a heated pool for a smaller group who want a nice getaway to the 30A area. Nice cute place and ideal location to the beach and for the area.

Great beachouse inside and out, perfect for our family getaway to the beach.
