We stayed Labor Day weekend in this cozy beach home away from home. Very comfortable beds, bikes, beach chairs and other beach equipment. TVs in all bedrooms and living room! Can’t think of anything we would change! Hope to be back soon!

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy beach house! It’s just a quick 3 minute walk to the beach and about 5 minutes to The Big Chill, which made evening dinners and ice cream runs super easy. The home itself is tidy, well-kept, and has everything you need for a relaxing beach getaway. We had a small hiccup with the air conditioning, but Megan was incredibly responsive and had it resolved right away, we felt well taken care of. Looking forward to staying again!

Perfect Beach Getaway – Absolutely Beautiful! We had the most incredible week at this beach house! The home itself is stunning – clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we needed. The location could not be better; just steps away from gorgeous white sandy beaches, and so easy to get to that we spent most of our days with our toes in the sand. The host was wonderful and made sure everything was seamless from check‑in to check‑out. We can’t recommend this beach house enough – it’s the ideal spot for anyone looking for beauty, comfort, and unforgettable memories by the ocean.

We loved our time in Seacrest at Megan’s cute beach house. We loved the location of the property. It was so close to the beach! We also loved the small walkable neighborhood/area. My daughter was able to safely get in her morning runs. We took advantage of the bikes a few times and the boogie boards daily. We can’t wait to come back!

For my first trip to the 30A area this was they place to stay at. This home says it is minutes from the beach. What it does not say is that you are the second home from 30A. Means you are closer to the beach than everyone else in your neighborhood. The House had bikes that we used to visit other beach towns nearby, and a Weber Grill we used to fire up some good dinners. with Three bedrooms and three bathrooms our two family getaw2ay was very comfortable. We will be reaching out to Megan for our return trip next year.

We loved our time at Sugar Magnolia 30A! The house is absolutely beautiful and in such an ideal location (1 or 3 minute walk depending on which beach you pick). Megan was so kind and accommodating to our family. We can’t wait to return!

We had a wonderful stay at Megan’s home and would definitely return! The house is beautiful, with a true family vacation vibe. It’s well cared for, with each room having a TV, a spacious living room, and a cozy patio. The kitchen is fully stocked, and detergent and dishwasher pods are provided. The beds and furniture are top quality, making it easy to feel at home. The beach is just a 3-minute walk away, with a private beach access only a minute away. The shed is stocked with beach chairs and gear, which was super convenient. The pool was another highlight—spacious, peaceful, and never crowded, offering a perfect spot to relax privately. The location is perfect, close to great restaurants like Old Florida Fish House, and Publix is just 5 minutes away. Megan was an outstanding host—responsive, helpful, and offered great local tips. Her communication was quick and smooth from start to finish. Would highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay in a beautiful home. Megan was wonderful to work with. This was my first experience renting a home through Airbnb. Megan was very patient and helpful as I completed the process. Her home is in a great location, beautifully decorated and has everything available that you may need during your stay. My first experience exceeded my expectations. We are already planning a return trip.
