Olive's Cottage is a true departure from your typical 30A experience. Located in a gated, private community off Hwy 395, this Farmhouse-style cottage is nestled among oaks and magnolias. A large wraparound porch welcomes you, offering a comfortable seat for the daily concert of chirping birds and cicadas. The tranquility continues inside with a décor draped in aquamarine, driftwood, and ivory. In the main living area, a banquette table invites you to dine near the cozy brick fireplace or sink into the nearby oversized sofa. A beautiful kitchen completes the space with marble counters, custom cabinets and stainless appliances. Comfortably sleeping 8 guests, Olive's Cottage is perfect for one or two families. The community offers two pools plus a nature trail which leads to a small dock and creek that flows into Western Lake. Should you want to leave your woodland nest, a short walk or bike ride will take you to many of the area's most popular destinations, including the Seagrove beach access. You're also centrally located to explore the neighboring communities of Seaside, WaterColor, and Grayton Beach.

Many of the communities along 30A are continuing to expand, so many more individuals can come enjoy the crystal blue waters of the Panhandle. Unfortunately, a side effect of this is construction and all the items that come along with it, such as noise, road blocks, etc. We understand this can be inconvenient for our guests, which is why we have chosen to make all possible guests aware of the possibility of this during their beach vacation. As most of this is outside of 30A Cottages realm of control, we are not able to offer discounts/compensation for any noise complaints, road blockades, etc. during a guest's stay. Please reach out to a team member with any questions you may have!

The overall property was clean and in a great location period our main concern was safety due to the front door Not locking or closing properly but was promptly attended to. We would suggest putting on the refrigerator the trash pickup days so we know when to put the trash out as we missed it today. Overall our favorite stay out of last several years. Thank you

We enjoyed our stay at Olives cottage. Conveniently located with a short bike ride to the beach. The beds were comfortable and perfect for our group. The cottage did not have a tea pitcher, but soon the management company delivered one to us. You need sweet tea on vacation!

Quiet neighborhood 10 min walk from beach
Property is located in a quiet tucked away neighborhood a short 10 minute walk from beach. Property was clean, nicely decorated with all needed amenities. One thing to note, beach toys and chairs are not provided. This wasn’t a problem (and was never stated they came with them) we are just used to going to beach houses that unexpectedly have them, so we started to expect to be able to use some things. Neighborhood has two pools that are well maintained which we all enjoyed after our beach visits.

Miller & Garita-Newport Family Vacation
The neighborhood is quite and relaxing. We enjoyed sitting on the porch as we watched over the kiddos riding the bikes around the home morning and evenings. The home itself is very nice and comfortable. The table was large enough for family of 6 dinners. The bathrooms were spacious. We also appreciate the roko TVs. We aren’t experienced bike riders but, it was a short walk or bike ride to the public beach access, Seaside central Square, Grayton State park and Publix.

Great Visit!
My family (husband and kids age 13, 10, 6) enjoyed our stay at this beach rental! The home is well kept, clean and in a great location in the neighborhood. The gated community was very quiet and my kids loved both pools. Getting to the beach was a little tricky for us with all our "stuff". We had rented a golf cart, but there was no golf cart parking. We came up with a system that worked for us but did involve a little back and forth from my husband. The bikes at the home were a great addition! The tv's in the home were all smart tvs and we were able to log into all our netflix, disney+ apps for movies. The kitchen has both a regular drip coffee pot AND a Keurig. The other very minor things that were imperfect for us in this rental are not even worth mentioning. We would definitely stay here again!

Everything was awesome - place was clean when we arrived and very comfortable! Close to the beach and seaside! The only minor complaint that we have would be not enough hand towels (only 3) and no hand soap was provided for the bathrooms! Other than that it was perfect!

Clean, quiet property in a great location! Easy walk to the beach. Short bike ride to Seaside town center (with 4 bikes provided) Publix is just down the street for groceries.
