Hi, Marty...Thanks so much for your kind review on Tupelo Honey! This is such a fantastically popular rental home that, by the end of a full summer season, it is indeed a little worn around the edges...we call that "tired!" The owners are very good at refreshing it every year during the winter months, however, when they are able to spend some time in the home.

We had the nicest spring break at Tupelo Honey! House is wonderful. So comfortable and perfect for our family which was two adults with three teens. The kids had ability to roam seaside and the area for fun during the day and it was a super short easy walk to the not crowded beach. All the crazy literally stops at that block which is quiet and feels like another world.our dog loved sitting on the front porch watching the world go by! We will be back. The pool is lovely, too!

Wonderful Home, Great Location

This was a spring break trip with my 15-year-old daughter and five of her teenaged friends. The location was perfect: short walks to the main square and easy beach access. The girls had bikes but walked almost everywhere. The house was great. Lots of room for the girls and enough privacy for me and my wife. The kids relaxed in the pool in the afternoons after getting back from the beach. Definitely recommend.

Tupelo Honey was amazing. The property was in a fantastic location, very clean. Tupelo Honey provides a cozy atmosphere with plenty of room. The swimming pool was amazing with the option to heat it.

Spring break getaway

We rented the property for spring break and the house was perfect for our family. The house was big with enough beds for a family of 5 to spread out. We paid to have the pool heated and enjoyed it several time. We will definitely rent again! The only reason for a 4 rating was because the water in the bathrooms never really got hot for a shower. We had to time out our showers to make sure we all got warm water. Also the living room furniture was a bit old and the kitchen had no spices (which is fine since it was stated there would not be any). Otherwise we loved the house and would definitely stay there again. It was perfect location to seaside without the crazy crowds.

Hi, Vickie...Thank you for your great review on Tupelo Honey.

We would have been happy to have done this during your stay, had we known you were experiencing this - we definitely want our guests to enjoy hot showers!

Great location for access to beach and Seaside

We had a great stay in this nice-sized family house. We were a group of 8, four adults and four kids, and we had the perfect amount of space. The backyard pool is great-so fun for the kids to walk out the door and right into the pool. The house is just a short walk to the beach and also to Seaside’s food stalls, restaurants, and shops. Once at the house we didn’t drive again except for groceries. The house is showing the wear and tear of being a rental property: little things...but annoying things popped up: the kitchen faucet was leaking, the can opener was broken (we replaced it), the pans are warped, and the dishwasher is uneven in its cleaning power, etc. But, even with these little inconveniences the house was well priced for the area and its amenities. We would stay here again!

Shady pool

We loved the house and location. The photo of the pool in your listing was deceiving. Looked very sunny but the backyard was overgrown and shady. The patio was a mess and the lawn chairs dirty with a cracked finish. Would benefit from trimming of the branches over the pool. We had to skim the pool ourselves multiple times a day just to clear out the leaves that were falling from the overhanging branches. Also, the bed in the middle bedroom on the second floor was unstable. My daughter felt like it was going to fall apart. Might want to check it out.

Hi, Jean...We appreciate your feedback on Tupelo Honey and are glad you loved the house and location. The pool photos in our listing are exactly as the pool looks; Old Seagrove is very shady with its live oak canopies, which is what it is known for; tree debris does often fall into the pool, especially on windy and rainy days. The pool is professionally serviced twice a week but, yes, our guests do need to skim the pool themselves occasionally. The pool does experience filtered sun during the day, but there is only a brief pocket of time mid-day when the sun fully shines on the pool. The owner has, however, already had his landscaping crew out to trim the trees that cover the pool, and the shrubs along the sides, due to your feedback. As well, the owner has replaced the bed you reference in your review; we are currently just waiting for the new mattress to be delivered before we set it up in the house. All being said, we are disappointed that you did not mention these items to us while you were in-house; we spoke twice during your stay and both times you let us know everything was good. We are a local company located just a few miles away, with staffing 7 days a week this time of year. We would have appreciated having the opportunity to discuss these issues with you directly and perhaps come to a resolution to make your stay better...Grayt 30A Vacations

Shockingly Rough

I would really like to say our stay was lovely, but it was incredibly disappointing. My husband is an active duty soldier and I am a veteran. We were traveling over Fourth of July with our newborn in hopes of some R&R. Our three month old was the least stressful part of the trip. On Sunday, the first day of our stay, they contacted us to try to send someone to fix a remote. I didn’t receive the voicemail until after a man had already come to our door. We turned him away because it’s vacation and we didn’t plan on watching tv. We also have a newborn and are really conscious about germs. We paid for the pool to be heated for our child. Apparently the heater is broken or doesn’t work well. We contacted the management company and they said they would refund us the money and send yet another person to turn off the heater. Our money hasn’t been refunded and the water was the same temperature. My husband also notified the company of the copious amounts of trash underneath the deck. When my husband emailed the company he said it didn’t bother us at the moment but wanted to let them know so it didn’t start attracting bugs or rodents. The repairman who came to turn off the broken heater started raking the trash and my husband watched all the grossness fly into the pool. So needless to say we stayed away from that. Careless construction in the neighborhood resulted in a six inch nail imbedded in our tire. Spend your time & money elsewhere. Wish we had.

Hello, Zosia...To say your review was disheartening to read is an understatement, as we strive to make our guest stays the best possible. I would like to touch on a few of your points, for the benefit of future guests. First of all, the new TV remote was not received prior to your arrival and we wanted to get it to the house and programmed for you as soon as possible, as otherwise the TV couldn't be watched. We had no idea you didn't plan on watching TV so didn't have need of this. The pool heater was not broken, but would not turn on as the ambient temperature of the pool water itself was into the 90's; we heat pools to 88 degrees, so the heater will not engage if the water temp is higher than this. While it is typically very hot this time of year, we were in the midst of the "heat bubble" with outside air "feels like" temps anywhere from 108-116 degrees during the week of your stay over July 4th. The pool heating fee was refunded to your card on July 5th, which was the day you contacted us about it "not working." We emailed a receipt of the refund on that day, as well as addressed this with you via email correspondence the first time you asked on July 12th, when we again emailed the refund receipt. You then let us know on July 24th that the refund was received. As far as the trash under the deck, your husband was right in that it would attract rodents and bugs; therefore, it was prudent that it be cleaned right away. It is hard to imagine this flew into the pool, as it would have had to travel some distance for that to happen; in addition, our staff would never be that careless. Construction is - and has been - booming in our area and will continue into the coming years, as happens with normal growth in residential tourist destinations. We hate to hear you had a nail imbedded in your tire; we would have been happy to address this same day with the contractor and perhaps worked out a reasonable solution, had we known. All in all, we hope in the future you are able to better enjoy your vacations and are sorry to hear we were not the fit you may have been expecting...Grayt 30A Vacations

Seaside TUpelo

Beautiful property but shower in master bath was lukewarm at best so my husband and I ended up trooping down hallway to other bathroom in order to have hot showers! Lots of construction of other houses being built on same road as well.

Hi Pam - Thank you for staying with us and providing feedback - especially on the maintenance issue. We had a plumber service the water heater and replace all of the shower valves in Tupelo Honey so that hot water flows throughout the the home. We hope to host you next time - construction is almost completed, too - it will be nice to have those homes finished! Grayt 30A Vacations
