**5 Stars – Perfect Beach Getaway!**
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful, clean, and spacious beach house! The duplex was so large and well-designed that we hardly noticed the neighbors, making it feel like our own private retreat. The best part? It’s **right on the beach**—you can’t beat the location! We also loved exploring the nearby hiking trails. Plus, it’s pet-friendly, which made it even more perfect for our trip. If you're looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway with all the comforts of home, this is the place. Highly recommend!

Great location on private beach
Krista was very responsive to any questions, concerns. The unit was clean with plenty of linens, etc. The location was great for some serious downtime. Awesome, quiet, and right on the beach. The accommodation could use some updating, but no complaints given the cleanliness and rate. First time to the Palm Coast area; would definitely consider a future vacation there and A Salty Dog rental property.

Best Beach We’ve Found Anywhere
You can’t beat this beautiful old style beach house located right on Flagler Beach in the Palm Coast area of Florida.
The outside deck area is a terrific place to enjoy a refreshment and soak in the lovely sights of the Atlantic Ocean, particularly, right at sunrise.
Clean, comfortable beds and lots of clean towels made our stay a very pleasant one.
The beach right in front of the house is absolutely fantastic, with beautiful views north and south and constant rolling waves singing the song of the ocean 24/7/365.
Flagler Beach is a terrific place to spend time with whoever you may be spending time with.
Krista was easy to work with, quick to respond and very professional.
