Perfect for Family

We have visited the area of 30A for over fifteen years and by far this is our favorite house for layout and location. We have stayed in this house for two consecutive years and plan to return for a third. The house is clean and well-stocked with kitchen and bath necessities. We loved our stay here!

Great Beach House - Clean, Comfy, and Cute!

We loved our stay in this house! We went for Spring Break, lots of room for our family, everything was so clean. You can't beat the location, just a block to the beach - not too crowded at the beach or in the neighborhood. Pool is lovely to come back to after a day at the beach! The house is so clean and cute - plenty of room for everyone, all of the amenities that you need for a beach vacation. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect spot!

We really enjoyed our stay! Everything was clean and the house was spacious for our family of 5. We really like the location because the neighborhood was family oriented. It was quiet but you had access to plenty of restaurants close by. Goatfeathers is great and a few steps away. The bike and golf cart rental also has a snack bar attached where they serve delicious breakfast sandwiches as well as other options. The beach was not crowded and you are also able to rent chairs/umbrella. The owner was very responsive to any emails we had with questions. Highly recommend and would love to return for another stay!!!

Great Place for a Family

This was our second stay at A Pair O Docs in Paradise. My family of 5 stayed in the home with my mother & father in-law. At the last minute my 10 year old nephew decided to come and we all fit comfortably. The home is very nice and has a great beach decor. Old Florida Cottages is a quiet, peaceful, family-oriented community. We love the Seaside area but choose Old Florida Cottages to get away from the crowds. The kids swam in the pool every evening and we cooked on the grill right beside the pool a few times.

Pair of Docs, What a wonderful time we had last week Oct. 8-12 in your lovely cottage! The neighborhood is so nice and we really enjoyed the short walk to the beach. Shopping was fun at Gulfview and Seaside and Grayton Beach. The weather was perfect!!!!! Our grandchildren (12 & 14) and their parents also enjoyed the time SO MUCH!!!! Sure was different from staying in Destin with all that traffic. Thank you for sharing with us. Dianne Deason Huntsville, AL

We stayed at Pair O Docs April 23rd through 30th. The house is perfect, clean, well decorated, great location, and a view of the beach. If you have not visited Santa Rosa Beach, do! It is far from the crowded beaches of Destin but still close to great shopping (Seaside) and even better restraunts. Definitely visit Cafe Tango, only a five minute walk from the house. The beach is like your own, we never saw more than 4 or 5 other families, and it is only a block away. We are picky about where we stay and highly recommend this house and town. We will be back.

Stress Free Vacation

From start to finish everything went smoothly. Renee made the entire process easy--prompt replies to emails, helpful letter with property and neighborhood information and even a text, sent midway through our stay, to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. The property was clean-every room was clean. (That made me the happiest!) The kitchen and living area worked great for family interacting-cooking, drinking, eating, and game playing. Simple walk to the beach was safe and short. Location, location, location. Stress free vacation!

Exceptional family vacation!

We spent a week at this house in Santa Rosa Beach and it was perfect! The house is spacious, clean, bright, and very pleasant. There are a few balconies/patios to enjoy the outdoors when relaxing at the house and the decor has a beautiful coastal feel that is perfect for a vacation! We had everything we needed within the house for cooking and enjoying the space. The location is spectacular - a very short walk to the public beach access (that even my two young children didn't complain about). It's even close enough that you can run back to use the bathroom or to grab a snack, if needed (although there are clean bathrooms right at the top of the access point, too). There is a restaurant and a place to get ice cream, snacks, and food just steps from the house, making it really convenient and fun. The beach is gorgeous - white sand and beautiful water! Community pool was fun and not at all crowded for a break from the beach. Plenty of walkable restaurants and shops too. Renee was a delight and very responsive. Don't pass this one up :)

Our first visit to the Florida Panhandle, and it was Wonderful! Thanks, Renee!!

We're always a little apprehensive when staying at a new location, but what a delightful surprise. Our beach house was nestled in a small neighborhood of similar cottages just a few hundred yards from the beautiful surgar white sands of Santa Rosa Beach. It was roomy, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The three bedrooms were large, and the beds extremely comfortable. Each bedroom had its own bathroom, and a porch to enjoy and take in the outdoors. The kitchen was fully equipped with every dish and appliance you might need. The living room and dining areas were equally roomy and comfortable. Even some of the beautiful art work on the walls appeared to be signed originals. All in all, if this beach house didn't have it, you probably didn't need it. We were delighted with the beach. The sand was white and fine and seemed to be largely free of the shells prevelant in other areas. You can walk for miles. Houses along the beach are beautiful, but a respectful distance from the water, leaving an ample area for everyone to enjoy. The beaches were not yet officially open and staffed with lifeguards; that happened the day we left. Our two weeks were also blessed with perfect weather. We would highly recommend Santa Rosa Beach and 'A Pair O Docs' beautiful beach cottage. We had a wonderful time.
