This was our first time with my family staying in the 30A area and SIMASALT didn’t disappoint! It was an amazing house with all amenities and so much more. The golf cart was perfect transportation to and from the beach , restaurants, Seaside and the local store for the unexpected needs. The house was extremely clean with plenty of towels and luxurious body washes , shampoos and conditioners. Eileen , the property manager was extremely easy to get information from during checkin to check out and anytime before and after. The only regret is that I wish we would have stayed longer. The location is perfect to be on thecfringe of the best beaches , etc. Highly recommend; can’t wait to return! JP
Thank you so much for staying with us!

We chose Simasalt for our family's yearly vacation with in-laws and had the best time! The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious--a perfect size for our group (5 adults, 2 children). Eileen was a lovely host who answered all our questions before we traveled and gave us the run-down of the amenities upon arrival. Everything you could think of was supplied for you: all supplies for the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry, of course. But there were also plenty of beach toys and chairs, tennis and pickleball gear, and even Priority bikes! The golf cart was a nice touch, and I can't emphasize how much the kids loved taking it for a spin in the (very cute) neighborhood. The owners of the house have clearly put a lot of thought into this property. Finally, the location was excellent. The area is close to plenty of restaurants but not at all loud or too crowded. There is a very nice boardwalk to take to the beach (I advise parking the golf cart at the east parking lot first), and our children loved the dune lakes to play around in on red flag days. We had such a lovely time and would definitely want to stay at Simasalt again in the future!
Whitney- It was great hosting you guys- Cant wait to have you back!!!!

This was our family’s second stay on 30A and the location was perfect! The home is gorgeous, comfy and smelled so fresh and clean upon arrival. We loved all of the amenities from kitchen and bathroom soaps, beach towels, beach toys, chairs and coolers to the bikes and golf cart. The gated community was perfect to walk and ride bikes. We loved being semi-centered on 30A to drive down to our favorites such as Old Florida Fish House and FOOW but then also not too far from Destin to drive down and eat at The Back Porch. We felt welcomed and very well taken care of and would love to come back and stay again.
Thank you so much for staying with us!!!!

We stayed at SIMASALT for the first time this past June. The house was gorgeous and provided everything we needed for our family. Loved the extras like the tennis and pickle ball rackets, and the wagon for taking things to the beach. We enjoyed cooking many home cooked meals and hanging out on the beautiful wrap around porch. It was such a private little community. We will definitely be back. Eileen, the property manager, was also a joy to work with and was really accessible during our stay when we had questions.
Penny- Thank you so much for the review- Cant wait for you guys to come again.
Missy
This home is gorgeous and everything you could need was thought of!! The layout of the home was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed a girls getaway trip. So many really great restaurants were within walking and biking distance, or a short golf cart ride away. Blue Mabel was a favorite for sure! The beach was private and not too far to walk...in fact, the private boardwalk through the woods was really enchanting. The house was clean and comfortable. Loved sitting on the porch with friends and a cup of coffee in the mornings. Would definitely recommend 100%!!
Thank you so much for staying-- Look forward to having you again.

To say we had a good time is an understatment.. we felt well taken care in our impeccably decorated comfy home for the week. Everything we needed was there. Perfect location in Grayton Beach away from the busy louder part of 30A. Everything was just a few minutes either eirther direction. Black bear coffee, Blue Mabel and more. We had bikes to use and a golf cart. The beach was amazing and not crowded. Truly breath-taking. Would definitely recommend staying here. You will not be disappointed!
Thank you so much for staying!!!!! Please feel free to come and join us again.
Dominque Wilkins and Michelle

You made sure that every I was dotted and every t was crossed. The house was amazing ! It was clean smelled fresh! The location was perfect ! The Golf carts, the wheelchair for the beach! We had sooooooo much fun! Dominque Wilkins was amazed , the people in the area were all so friendly also. We will be back and again thank you so much this trip was soooooo much fun!
You are so welcome!!!!! I enjoyed working with Dominique and Michelle- I am so glad JoJo got to swim in the Gulf!!! Anytime you need anything feel free to call again
Ella
My family and 3 others families stayed here for our annual beach vacation this year. The home was beautiful, in a great location in the front of the neighborhood with easy access to the pool and with deeded access through a well-maintained, shaded boardwalk to the beach. Great care has been taken to fully stock this home from the linens to the kitchen items, there wasn’t a thing we were left wanting. Our favorite part of the day was cocktail hour on the beautiful porch, complete with fans and adorable furniture! There is a golf cart and brand new bikes for fun in the neighborhood, the mattresses were very comfortable and all the finishes in this newly renovated property were beautiful. Would highly recommend!
I am so glad we were able to assist you guys in your vacation dilemma. I was so thrilled to meet all of you as you are truly a unique bunch of guests who left this home in AMAZING condition when you left. I was nervous because the amount of travelers but you guys are welcome again. Feel free to call me direct if you need another place to stay. Still looking for the fox- hoping for a find :)

First off I have stayed in this home under a previous owner- I was blown away by the transformation. Melanie went above and beyond with her sense of style and attention to detail. This house is in the Preserve at Grayton Beach, we try to stay in the Preserve as the beach access is by far the best we have found on 30A. You can walk to either one of 4 public accesses to Blue Mountain beach, or you can access the gated access that is the community access. This community is located near 2 coastal dune lakes- which are great for little kids. The beach access opens up to an area of Grayton Beach state park that has no public access, so you will find a very relaxing vacation. There are 2 pools, one for the kids to jump in after we left the beach and then headed back to the house. The kids loved the tennis courts being only a few houses away as well. The other bonus was having a pool for night time swims, it is next to the tennis courts. We walked to Blue mountain creamery and Redfish taco and enjoyed some outdoor music. We will be back.
Thank you so much for staying with us!!! Look forward for you returning again.
Rebecca
This was our first stay in the Preserve, and it did not disappoint. This house has amazing beach access that is gated with a beautiful boardwalk. The kids enjoyed hunting for ghost crabs at night then jumping in the pool. The house had everything we needed and it was BRAND NEW. Melanie did an amazing job and all the little details were appreciated. There are bikes that we used, which was a surprise to us- a great surprise. We will definitely return again, Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay- We look forward to you coming back.
Angela
We loved the location of this house- We biked into Grayton proper locked up the bikes and enjoyed the Red Bar- First timers. We loved the vibe of the area and look forward to returning. The home was well stocked and brand new. I was so impressed with the quality of this renovation and all the special touches.
Angela- Thank you for your kind words- Glad you liked the Red Bar :)
