About the host: Love the beach- Love the vibe of 30A- Love the Preserve at Grayton. I wanted a place to come and unwind and relax and I purchased this home in 2022.
I have fully refurnished this home to showcase how I feel when I am at the beach.
Why this property? This property is so special because of our proximity to the beach, the preserve is a special place located in between Grayton and Blue Mountain beach- We have a gated deeded beach access to a public beach along 30A that has no public access. The beach area is large and is just what one needs to actually enjoy your vacation.

Exceptional Vacation Home!
I have never written a review before but feel compelled to do so with this lovely house. It is beautifully built and decorated, wonderfully comfortable, spacious, and has every amenity one might need or want. Eileen and Shawn live nearby and are quick to respond and handle any imaginable need. The only drawback is that it is not right on the water; there is, however, a private and mostly shady boardwalk over to it, and it does not take long to get there. Once at the beach, there is an attendant who sets up nice lounge chairs and an umbrella for you in Jewel of the Sea’s reserved area. I would most definitely recommend this house!

Betty- Thank you so much for staying with us. Eileen
Amazing place!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beach house! The location is unbeatable – just steps away from the beach, making it incredibly convenient to pop down for a morning walk or sunset stroll. The house itself was immaculate and stocked with everything we could possibly need. From plenty of beach towels to a fully equipped kitchen with all the dishes and utensils, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. They even provided a hair dryer and an abundance of shower essentials, which was such a thoughtful touch.The addition of the golf cart made getting around town an absolute breeze, and we loved the bikes available for a fun ride around the neighborhood. One of our favorite spots to relax was on the porch swings and the cozy screened-in porches, which made for perfect evenings enjoying the gulf breeze.The convenience of being so close to local restaurants, shops, and attractions made it easy to explore the area, but we loved how peaceful and private the house felt, especially so close to the beach. The attention to detail in this rental truly made our trip stress-free and relaxing. We can't wait to come back and stay again! Highly recommend!

Jenn, Thank you for staying with us Eileen
This is diffidently a Jewel
This house is a luxury home!!! By far the best we have rented & we have been renting a beach house 15 years. Everything you could want, this house has. Super clean, stocked kitchen, ice maker so handy to have! Our kids had so much fun with the pickle ball, tennis courts & pool down the street. They have a nice corn hole set at the house. So much to do & just a short golf cart ride to get ice cream or can walk or ride the bikes that were provided. I could go on & on about this house. We are booked for 2025. Can’t wait!!

Michelle- Thank you for choosing the house to spend a milestone birthday!! Glad you enjoyed. Eileen
Calm, quiet & serene
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this home. It was exactly what we were looking for our first trip to the area. I can’t leave a review without first giving a very special shout out to-Eileen who made this vacation all it was and more. She was quick to respond, checked in on us frequently to ensure all was well, and gave us superb recommendations on places to go being our first trip there. As for the home, it is nestled in a calm, quiet, serene neighborhood with two pools and a private boardwalk to the beach. The home came fully equipped with everything we may have needed or didn’t know we needed for our stay. It was well kept, very clean, luxurious. We will be back!! We took the golf cart around 30A one day and I can ensure you, there is not another place we will stay. The kids and I had such a relaxing, fun spring break, which is just what we were searching for.
