Oranges By Sea | Renovated Gulf-Front Escape

After reading reviews, I was confident with the pictures posted but with a beach rental we always know there are some disappointmentsPros: excellent managament company. Responsive and informative - close walk to beach entrance (no bathroom which keeps people away but condo hi rise & thin beach portion make it crowded) - great restaurants each way within 30 min. Publix is 7 min too - air conditioning was on point on all 3 levels even at 71degreesCons: interior desperately needs fresh paint. - couches and 2 side chairs were not clean. we had extra blankets in car toncover them - pool light did not work for night swimming - back door was main entrance with code not front which is super inconvenientOverall a good rental but not great. Only update noticed was new appliances

Property was close to beach and close to many local favorites. The house was great and clean. We did have one issue and the property manager took care of it in a few hours. Highly recommend this house for a family of 10 or more

Loved the place, exactly as advertised. Plenty of room for large groups to spread out with 3 floors. Loved how everything was walkable. It was right across the street from beach access and walkable tp pizza, snow cones, grocery, shops, and more!

From the moment we walked into the house we were in awe! The house is immaculate and has so much space for multiple people. Ice maker makes craft ice balls. There were eight of us total and each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. Literally a mansion in paradise. Walking distance to the beach and updated amenities in the house. The pictures do not do it any justice. I an a stickler for cleanliness and the place was spotlless

Overall this property is a fantastic find bc of the location and the size. It’s just a short block to the sand and there is no public parking on 30a that would get you this close to the water. The only thing better would be a house literally on the sand. But if you don’t spring for that, this is the perfect location. It’s in between the two cutest towns - but there is not really a walkable little town where the house actually is. If you don’t mind driving either east or west, you will find plenty of the walkable places on either side. The other nice thing about this house is the size. Every room is spacious and there is enough seating in the living areas for people to gather. The bedrooms are huge, each one has its own bathroom and there is a little bathroom downstairs. The bed mattresses in a few of the rooms were a bit squeaky but surprisingly ended up being comfortable! The areas for improvement: The home was tidy and clean everywhere except the floors. We like to be shoeless in the house to not track sand and dirt in but the bottoms of our feet were literally black after walking barefoot here. This is a note for the property manager so they can confront their cleaning crew. This is easily fixed or you could wear shoes the whole time. It’s time to swap out the area rugs here in the kitchen & living room they were old and dirty. The couches/chairs in the living room feel like they are falling apart- very uncomfortable & Light above stove was out & mildewy smell in home

We just spent an amazing week at the perfect beach home. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. It was very comfortable and we felt like we had plenty of room. We were about the pool being small but it was perfect for the kids to play in. We did have one mishap while we’re staying here with the key pad dying one night when we had gotten back from dinner. We called the maintenance number and they had someone was out quickly to get it fixed and get us into the house. The proximity to the beach was great and also close to several good restaurants within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again. I also like that it was in a gated community so that felt safer.

5 stars. The only negative was the beach access was shared with a very large set of condos. The beach was EXTREMELY crowded for 30A. Other than that the house was superb and exactly as described.

Loved everything about this home and our vacation!

Beautiful property and location! We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again!!

Loved staying here! Right by the beach , huge space!!
