Great beach house in a great location

We really enjoyed our stay at “above the dunes”. The property was in a quiet, but family friendly neighborhood and was very close to the beach. The backyard was like our own little private oasis. Unfortunately, the pool could not be heated (we asked!), which made it pretty much unusable in the spring, as it doesn’t get a whole lot of continuous sun. The interior of the house accommodated our two families (4 adults, 5 kids) very comfortable. The property management team from Ocean reef were incredibly responsive and helpful.

Beautiful Beach but House just Ok

This was our 3rd vacation in the Gulf Trace community, we love how private this area is and the beach is just beautiful. First, the house was the perfect size for my family of 6 + 2 Grandparents. The primary bedroom/bathroom is HUGE. We loved the multiple decks. The backyard and pool was gorgeous but the pool only gets a little sun during the day. I think the thing disappointing about this house was; we booked it December 2022 and it was advertised as having an optional heated pool. A week before our trip I called to make sure it would be turned on and to pay the fee and I was told that property no longer had a heated pool. The pool was freezing, we hardly went in it at all the whole week which was a huge bummer. Also, because of the tree's in the backyard it was pretty dirty with leaves on the bottom. Ocean Reef did send their pool company out the next day and it looked a lot better but it was just too cold to use. A few other relatively minor things; the kitchen faucet was extremely loose and dripped water constantly, we didn't feel the dishwasher did that great of a job--the buttons all rubbed off so we couldn't tell what setting it was on, the remotes all had low batteries and we couldn't get the tv to work in the upstairs look out room. One morning we woke up to ants all over our food sitting on the counters. Overall, we had a great trip, the beach was amazing but I think this house could use some "routine maintenance".

Perfection in florida

We had an amazing time at Above the Dunes. The house had everything you would need including beach toys and bugie boards- floaties for the pool. Just a 2 minute walk to the white sand beach. Quiet community- also a short walk to shopping and eating. Loved it !

Beautiful home

Above the Dunes is a beautifully decorated, spacious home and only 2 minutes from the beach! A lot of attention to detail and room to spread out fir more than 1 family. The pool was gorgeous and enough shade to enjoy it on a hot day after a day at the beach, which isn’t crowded at all and we were there in June! Only disappointment was there was no access to the garage to store our beach gear.. I would definitely recommend Above the Dunes to anyone looking for a more secluded area on 30 A but easy access to everywhere.

Great family house

Great family house that is very close to the beach. Lots of room to spread out and all luxury bathrooms. We loved Grayton Beach... quiet with no high rises. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Totally recommend this house.
