Deana Donoho
We had a wonderful week at this lovely home! It is beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The view of the sea is fabulous downstairs and upstairs. We really enjoyed relaxing and eating on the nice deck while seeing and hearing the waves. Francine has thought of everything to make your stay fun! Two beach chairs with umbrella set up on the beach daily, sand chairs and a grill are just a few of the great items. It rained some while we were there but we could just run up to the condo, wait it out and go right back to the beach. Francine was very informative and a pleasure. We would love to return!
Deana, Thanks so much for taking time to write a review and what a nice one!! I'm looking forward to having your family again the same week next year!
Jay
We stayed from May 13-20. The unit was exceptionally clean when we arrived, which is a huge plus for my wife and I. Then when you see the gulf view from the living room, and walk out the back door and down a few steps to the beach, it becomes hard to beat. We also sat on the balcony outside the master bedroom (see photo) and it allowed us to see the whole beach. There are also several good restaurants within easy walking distance (a half mile or less) and the unit includes beach chairs and an umbrella set up for you each day (April - Oct) which was wonderful. The whole area was very quiet and laid back for the perfect beach vibe. Francine was great to work with, even being quick to answer our weird questions, like what kind of coffee filters should we bring! (She has a Keurig too, with a refillable cup if you want to bring your own coffee). Overall, I would highly recommend this unit.
Thanks, Jay. I hope you can come back again next year.
Colleen
Townhome has everything you want for the best beach vacation! The oceanfront views are amazing. The private beach was a great perk; at times we felt like we had the beach to ourselves while the public beach down the way was filled up. This home was very clean and we felt at home right away. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Perfect location. Walkable to great restaurants and the popular Blue Mountain Bakery is just steps away for a nice morning treat. Francine was easy to work with and takes great pride in keeping her home well maintained. We will definitely be back to vaca here again!
Thanks, Colleen. I look forward to having you back again.
Tina
We stayed in 2 By the Sea at Sea Cliffs for 10 nights over the holidays. Francine was great to work with and quickly responds to questions. This beautiful townhome has spectacular views of the turquoise water from the kitchen, living room, master bedroom and master bathroom. There is comfortable furniture to hangout in or eat your meals on the deck/patio off the living room that we spent countless hours on. It's the perfect place to stay for peace and quiet since no one is below or above you like condos. We cooked all of our meals in the well-stocked kitchen and even used the charcoal grill. The townhome is clean throughout as well. Our family of 4 had lots of space to spread out and enjoy living by the ocean. We look forward to coming back!
Thanks, Tina. I hope to have you and your family back next year.
Karen
This is the perfect spot for a stress free holiday. Unit is beautifully updated and ease to get to the beach was fantastic! Francine was a wonderful host with great communication.
Karen, thanks for taking time to write a review. Look forward to having you return next summer.
David
We have been going to 30A for the last 7 years and have always wanted to stay "beachside." I found this listing, visited with Francine numerous times, and when we arrived, it was beyond what we were expecting. Fabulous views and the furnishings were exactly as described. Patio views are spectacular, and the beach access cannot be beat; the two complimentary beach chairs were icing on the cake. We will definitely be returning back to this awesome condo. Thank you again Francine....
David, Thank you for such a wonderful account of your experience at Sea Cliffs. Hope to have you back again soon.
David R.
First time staying here; i was blown away once we got there, even after looking at the pics. Being beachside in such a nice condo set a high bar if we ever stay anywhere else. Francine was great to work with; easy communication and would respond to questions quickly. We will definitely be repeat customers.
Thank you so much, David.
G. Traynham
Our family stayed May 21-28, while our weather was crummy all but the last day. The condo was incredible. It’s perfect and in an amazing spot. Being able to look out and enjoy the ocean was more then we could ask for. Thank you Francine for such a lovely stay. We will be back!
Thanks for sharing, Genevieve!
Courtney
Fran’s place is the best kept secret of blue mountain beach- well maintained, clean and in a great location. The view is beautiful and convenience to the beach can’t be beat. We would definitely stay here again!
Courtney, thanks so much for sharing your experience at Sea Cliffs. Hope to have you back again next year.
Paula Murrell
We booked 15 days & it wasn’t enough! Peaceful Location with unobstructed Beach views! The sunsets & sunrises were spectacular from the deck & balcony! Nicely & comfortably decorated with everything you need. All you need is your food. Francine has a stocked closet full of beach toys including floaties & a cooler. Comfortable beds. Loved not having neighbors above us & not having to deal with a high rise. It is nice to park right next to the unit for loading & unloading. Only nine units right on the beach. I will sure miss hearing those waves & shell hunting on the beach. Easy central location for getting to several communities. Best of all was working with Francine! You will not meet a nicer homeowner to work with. She patiently answered all of our questions & was very helpful. I would stay here again! FYI- get the Taco salad at Red Fish Taco!
My goodness, Paula. Thanks you so much for this great review and your spectacular photos. (Especially the sunset ones) They made me feel like I was there.
Katie
This property was exactly what we were looking for and MORE! Working with Francine was such a breeze and breath of fresh air! She was beyond responsive and detailed (such great food recommendations). We traveled for a quick New Years trip (looking for some relaxation in the sun) and were greeted with this gorgeous townhouse. Not only is the townhouse beautiful, it's clean, spacious, and in a great area! The food options were all delicious and a good number were within walking distance. Listening to the waves crashing each night and waking up and taking walks on the beach in the morning was exactly what we needed and the perfect start to 2022. We had such a great time and will definitely be coming back next year (and have already started telling our friends!) Can't wait to return to this Slice of Heaven!
Katie, I'm so glad you had a nice time. Your terrific review makes all my efforts worth while. Hope to have you back again next year! Francine
Kelly King
Very nice condo, in a great location!!! Very convenient!! Everything you could think of or need was is in this condo! Francine was a pleasure to deal with, and VERY helpful!! We have been coming to the Destin/Ft. Walton/30a area for almost 20 years now. And this is by far our favorite condo!
Kelly, I'm so glad we've become your favorite condo! No greater review than that!! Happy you had a good time.
Courtney Afeld
I don’t usually write reviews but I always read them. With that being said I felt like Francine’s condo deserved my time. We throughly enjoyed our stay at Two By the Sea. The view is wonderful, the walk to the uncrowded beach was so convenient, and the condo was very comfortable and clean. We had just what we needed to do a little cooking but enjoyed the area restaurants most of the time. We enjoyed walking to Blue Mabel and Blue Mountain Creamery. The closet outside was so nice to be able to use the beach toys. I even organized it a bit on my first day so we could easily find what we needed. It has everything you need! I really appreciated how comfortable and plentiful the furniture was. Everyone in our family of four had a comfortable place to sit or sleep. Francine was an excellent host to work with. I really can’t think of one complaint! We can’t wait to return!
Courtney, thank you so much for taking the time to write a review for me. i know others will enjoy reading your comments. Can't wait to have you back.
Cindy
Francine’s townhome was just as described! Lovely property, lovely views and easy access to shops, restaurants and parks. We had a wonderful time and look forward to future visits.
Thanks, Cindy. I look forward to hearing from you again.
Shelia W.
We had a wonderful stay in your lovely townhome. View was incredible! Our stay was amazing! Francine was a pleasure and so helpful.
Thanks for the comments, Shelia. That's what it's all about! Couldn't believe you saw a bald eagle down there - but since you see them regularly where you live I know it's true. Move over Pelicans! HahHah!
Phuong N.
My husband and our 2 kids were there for a week over Christmas. The place looks exactly like the pictures (which often is not the case with rentals). The view is gorgeous. Kids loved the close access to the beach. The place is clean and beds are very comfortable (another surprise). Kitchen is nicely stocked. The outdoor closet was filled with beach equipment and loved the outdoor shower for rinsing off the sand. We never like to go to the same place twice, but we would definitely consider returning here b/c the place was so comfortable!
Thank you so much Phuong, for taking the time to write a review for me. I'm glad everything was just as pictured and that you were pleasantly surprised with even more than you expected. Hope you and your family will return again sometime soon.
Emily Weaver
We've stayed in this area for many years including this complex, but were thrilled with our stay at this townhouse. It is FULLY stocked with every thing you could imagine, beautiful decor and extremely clean! Francine, the owner, is so helpful, super nice and made it so easy. Wish there were more than 5 stars to give. We will DEFINITELY return!!
Emily, Thank you so much. I look forward to having you back again at Sea Cliffs. Francine
Michelle Trammell
Wow! All the previous reviews were spot on! This town house was just as described. We had everything at our fingertips. The kitchen is perfectly stocked. The decor is very appropriate for the beach. The abundance of beach supplies was awesome. I would highly recommend renting from Fran. She was very accommodating. We will certainly be repeat renters of Two by the Sea!
Thanks for your comments. Looking forward to having you back again sometime.
Dena
My husband and I and another couple just spent four nights at Two by the Sea. To say it was amazing would be an understatement! The kitchen was updated and fully equipped. Access to the private beach was easy, and the views were stunning! Fran was so accommodating and easy to work with. This property is definitely one that we would return to.
Thanks Dena
Lisa Willard
The view is Amazing! Love the tasteful decor. Beds are super comfy. It was great to have a grill out front and your own shower area out back. The area is Awesome. Not commercialized , like Destin, etc... Beach amazing, not crowded, Beautiful. Last but not least, it was a pleasure to do business with Fran, a very honest and trustworthy person. Thank you for accomadating us on a last minute deal. This year has been difficult. What will be the highlight for my family is the amazing time we had at, Two by the Sea.
So glad to have had you come down.
Alison Green
With all that going on right now this was a perfect place to get away from it all. Francine made sure there was plenty of hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, detergent for dishes and clothes....I mean really this list could go on. You do not have to fight anyone in the house for bath towels as there were MORE then enough. I have to say....the BEST for our family of 5....the outdoor closet that was STOCKED with premium beach supplies. Beach chairs, beach umbrella, boogie boards, sand toys/pails, nets to catch whatever you wish and even a blow up boat?? This location is on a private stretch of the beach which meant that there was plenty of room for us to spread out. No fighting at all for space which meant we could even walk down at noon and set up our "spot" and not be near anyone. Two by the Sea looks exactly like the pictures.... gorgeous! Also Francine responded to my emails promptly and didn't have us pay the full amount till a few weeks before our reservation. We put our deposit down in January and needed to have our first half in by the end of April. At that time Florida vacation rentals were not permitted to operate and it was unknown when that would be lifted. Francine told me to not worry at all, that my deposit was all she needed till a few weeks before our scheduled arrival. That is AMAZING customer service and one of the many reasons why I love doing rentals by owners. While many were scrambling for responses through VRBO and rental companies that had closed their offices, I was able to deal directly with the owner and knew the answers to all my questions within a 24 hour period. Thank you Francine! We can't wait to book again??
Todd S
Terrific two story condo with nicely updated kitchen and bathrooms. Very comfortable and well furnished. The best part is the little balcony with beach views off the master bedroom. Terrific location close to everything. Will definitely try and return.
Thanks, Todd. I look forward to having you back again.
Scott
We really enjoyed our stay at Two by the Sea. Access to the beach was actually one of the easiest I've ever had. From the moment you walk in the door this unit is very inviting and the views are very nice as well. There are plenty of places to eat within walking distance that are very reasonably priced. Weather was good with the exception of the last day due to high surf because of Tropical Storm Barry. All in all I highly recommend this unit for any Family. We will definitely be back.
Scott, thanks for sharing your thoughts on Two by the Sea. We look forward to having you back down again soon.
Cathy Francow
I want to start by saying if you can rent from Francine Proffer I would. We have rented many places to stay in the past and she was by far the best to work with. My husband and I stayed at Two By the Sea for four nights. Seriously I did not want to leave. We loved everything about it. The townhome was immaculate and finished in a way that I would decorate my own home. The finishes and decor were perfect for a beach home. They had everything we needed for our stay and more! The two upstairs bedrooms were very large and even had two queen beds in the 2nd bedroom with plenty of room left. Everything was clean, clean, clean!! Now let's talk about the view! WOW! You could sit on the back patio and enjoy the view or even the view from inside was amazing. I felt like I was in paradise here! If I could give this place 10 stars I would!! Thanks so much for allowing us to rent your home Francine!
I’m so glad you chose our place for your “house hunting “ trip and that you found your own piece of paradise. Thanks for sharing your experience at “Two by the Sea “. Your kind remarks are very much appreciated.
Laura Lee
