Great beach townhouse

The townhouse was laid out very well. It backed up to trees so the screened in back porch was quiet and private.

Beautiful home in Seacrest

We loved staying in this beautiful home in Seacrest. It's clean, tastefully decorated, and roomy enough for our family. The location is fantastic: within walking distance of Seacrest Beach, the community pool, shops, and restaurants. The owner was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. I highly recommend it; we would absolutely stay there again.

A fantastic stay!

The house had plenty of space and is very nice. We loved the outdoor spaces to sit while the kids slept and it was so quiet at night. You saw security making rounds throughout the night. Kids were riding their bikes and playing. It seems like a long walk to the beach, but it really isn't and if you don't want to walk the tram is an easy ride or you can rent bikes. The house is a short walk to shops and restaurants and the beautiful, large pool. Rosemary was only a slightly further walk/bike ride, but it was totally doable! Mary Beth was great and communicated with us prior and after the trip. We hope to return next year!

We loved our after Christmas Getaway at Summer Palace in Seacrest Beach. House backed up to nature trail and felt private, yet quick bike ride to shops, pool, beach path. House was clean, stylish and had everything we needed.

Everything as advertised. Good communication. Great to have the trolley to take us to beach access and to be able to walk to the awesome neighborhood pool. We had an issue with fridge on arrival and this was addressed expediently and satisfactorily. Would stay again!

Hidden Gem

We had an absolutely amazing week at the Summer Palace. The house was clean, beautiful decorated, and spacious. Every detail has been thought out and we were so appreciative. Mary Beth was so easy to work with too. We decided last minute to stay an extra day and Mary Beth accommodated us and made it so easy. We will be coming back.

Nice clean house with easy access to Seacrest community

The house was great, well furnished and equipped. Kids enjoyed biking to the shops and restaurants in Seacrest. We spent Easter weekend there and hoped to spend the week in the pool, but it was not heated and a bit too cold to swim. Only complaint about the area is that the beach access is a good distance from the neighborhood and by the time we got there at late-morning it was wall-to-wall people.

Family vacation

Great location it’s close to everything you would want to do. So many families around as well that was super nice. We enjoyed easy access to the beach and pool. The house was beautiful just as advertised. Our host was very responsive to me with any questions we had. Our trip started off rocky with delays and baggage issues and she was easy to get ahold of that made things easier. We were able to go deep sea fishing. A first for my eldest. We will definitely be back in the future. You can rent bikes close by which made things easy to get to. We were there for the Fourth of July so we saw amazing fireworks off the beach and in our neighborhood.

Very lovely home that was well equipped and very comfortable for our family!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Summer Place. Mary was extremely easy to work with and very quick to respond when needed. We have stayed in Seacrest Beach for 6 years, and this quickly became my favorite house! We did, however, have my son's personal bike stolen on our first full day from the house. That was a very disappointing way to start off our trip. The bike was never recovered. We always have felt extremely safe in Seacrest, but we felt we have to have our guard up now. Overall, the trip was fabulous as always though.

Cute house, well stocked, great amenities, easy check in and great communication. Close to beach!

The Summer Palace is a great house and we enjoyed our stay. Communication with the property owner was excellent and check in easy. The house/kitchen was well stocked and very clean and comfortable. The Seacrest neighborhood is charming and it was a quick easy walk (or tram) across the street to the beautiful beach. Also an easy walk to Rosemary shops/dining and Inlet beach. A short drive to Seaside and Watercolor. We didn’t have great weather the week before Christmas but our teens girls never complained there was so much to do and see! If you plan a stay at the Summer Palace, you will love it!

Quiet Oasis Yet Well Located

From booking to checkout Mary Beth was a very welcoming and professional host. Instructions for the home and access were very easy to navigate. This home is located at the back of the subdivision which makes it quiet and away from the traffic on 30-A but still a short walk to the beach. The home backs to the nature trail which also makes for a short walk into Rosemary Beach. We found the home to be supplied with most all of our essential needs and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the screen porch which overlooks the green belt at the rear of the property. This is our fourth year to travel to the Emerald Coast area on 30-A for our winter vacation and we are always anxious to go back. Many thanks to this host for making it another memorable year!
