Great location right on the beach. Booked last minute due to another property having to cancel on us. They were very responsive and answered right away. Helped make a stressful situation better.

Our stay at Tipsy Turtle was all we'd hoped it would be. Beautiful sunrises, nice private beach, and a comfortable, clean house to relax in. The kitchen is well outfitted with all the cookware and appliances a cook needs on vacation too. We tried out Commanders restaurant and Captain's barbecue nearby. Both very good, highly recommend.

While not the Ritz, (but lovely renovations soon), the Tipsy Turtle was spiffy clean. Eric and Cambria were as accommodating as could be. The views and beach were as spactacular as one could hope for anywhere. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. I stayed 2 weeks, and maybe longer next time!

We had a fabulous time at the Tipsy Turtle! My family of 7 (6 adults + 1 child, also a dog) fit comfortably and enjoyed four nights here. Everything is just as described. Although the appliances and some of the furniture pieces are dated, we found everything was functional. The ocean view from the Turtle is unmatched, just beyond beautiful. We saw dolphins several times! Our drive to the St. Augustine attractions was approx. 35 minutes, to Buccees in Daytona Beach about 30 minutes. I recommend the Tipsy Turtle and would definitely return!
Linda - Posted: 12/30/2025
Thank you for choosing the Tipsy Turtle. We’re happy to hear your family had a great stay and that everyone had plenty of space to relax. The ocean views really are special, and spotting dolphins is always a highlight. We appreciate the feedback and the recommendation, and we’d love to host you again in the future.

Located on the beach
Check-in easy. Quick communication with Krista. Duplex is located on a beautiful, private beach. Beautiful sunrises. The air conditioner works awesome! There's plenty of dishes and utensils. The master bed is very comfortable. There's plenty of towels and washcloths. The exterior could use a lot of repairs, paint and cleanup under the decks. The shower on the deck needs replaced. The mattresses in the other 2 bedrooms need replaced. One of the beds make noise every time you move. The shower curtain in the hall bathroom needs replaced. The kitchen needs a new faucet, kitchen towels and dishcloths.

In general, we absolutely loved the Tipsy Turtle! We loved being able to walk out the back porch and onto the beach! It was awesome listening to the ocean as we went to sleep. The only issues we had were the door code didn't work at first trying to enter the house and the WIFI wasn't working to connect to our phones. We are hoping to return there again some day

**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!

The steps from the walkway over the dune were missing. The locals said it has been laying about 10 houses down the beach since October. The ceiling fan on the deck was broken off. There were pans in the cabinets that still had grease on them. I would not go back to a salty property. The guests in the unit next to us had to call to get in just like us.
Dean P - Posted: 2/11/2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you shared both what you enjoyed and the areas where we can improve. The beach walkway steps have since been repaired, so guests can now enjoy direct access without any issues. We’re sorry to hear about the ceiling fan and the pans in the cabinets. New fans have been installed on the deck, and our team has addressed the kitchen items to ensure they’re properly cleaned before every arrival. As for the check-in concerns, we understand how frustrating it can be when access is delayed. We have since installed new electronic door pads at this property to make entry smooth and easy for all guests. We appreciate your comments and will continue to make improvements based on guest feedback. While we regret that this stay didn’t meet your expectations, we do hope you might consider giving another Salty Dog property a try in the future.

Awesome beach house. Emphasis on “beach!” Property located at end of a dead end. House was clean yet had some older doors and windows that did allow lots of air through. Kitchen is a bit dated, fully stocked, workable and clean. Nice location with amazing views. Walking the beach is great and the proximity to George Washington Park is superb. Bedrooms were nice with loads of closet space and hangers! If you are looking to unplug and get away from it all, this is an excellent choice. Nothing fancy but perfect.

Thank you for the thoughtful review Carrie! We're so glad you enjoyed the unbeatable beachside location, peaceful vibe, and the well-stocked, comfortable space. It’s great to hear the home was just what you needed to unplug and relax. We'd love to welcome you back anytime! 🌊🐾

Kitchen is a bit dated, fully stocked, workable and clean. Nice location with amazing views. Walking the beach is great and the proximity to George Washington Park is superb. Bedrooms were nice with loads of closet space and hangers! If you are looking to unplug and get away from it all, this is an excellent choice. Nothing fancy but perfect.

Thank you for the thoughtful review Carrie! We're so glad you enjoyed the unbeatable beachside location, peaceful vibe, and the well-stocked, comfortable space. It’s great to hear the home was just what you needed to unplug and relax. We'd love to welcome you back anytime! 🌊🐾

Last minute getaway for thanksgiving with my dad and two dogs. Even with the holiday the host was amazing about communicating and making sure we had everything we needed. View and home was beautiful sunrise and sunset was breathtaking! The dogs loved the different areas they could play in and the recommendations on food were spot on! Might make this a new thanksgiving tradition! Thank you again will be back soon!

Our trip was supposed to last for May 1 - 4, 2024 we loved this place so much that when they said it was open for an extra day we grabbed it! This was the best place for us. It was so perfect in the location and amenities that we felt like it really was our home away from home! Hope from Salty Dog contacted me and after finding out that we would be checking in very very late made sure that we had everything we needed to check in without problem. We hope to return again to this wonderful ocean front duplex where you just pretty much step out the backdoor and you can be on the beach with your toes in the sand and surf in just a few steps! So perfect for a beach vacation! The fact that it's a duplex just means you have the chance to meet new people and when you are ready for peace and quiet you only have to go inside, close the doors and you are in your own cozy, comfortable world! Can't wait to go back!

Pros: This is a beautiful, big beach cottage; peaceful area. Message to Host did get a response to a request for 2 potholders, kitchen towels, and small plates, as there were none. Cons: Only provided 2 dishwashing pods, 2 kitchen garbage bags, and 2 laundry pods for 4 guests for 8 days. Would have been a perfect rental if messaging had been responsive to our one complaint. I believe they use a Bot. First impression of this lovely house was overflowing garbage + recycling bin in the carport. Apparently, pickup is Mon/Thurs and maintenance could not be bothered to remove or at least tidy up previous guests’ mess before we arrived on Friday. Took two messages and two days to get a response. We were then informed that maintenance would put out on the street for Monday pickup. He arrived too late and implied we should have hauled previous guests’ bin to street. He took some of the garbage with him, but left overflowing recycling crate. Better communication needed to be 5 star.
Claire B - Posted: 3/18/2024
Hi Claire! Thank you for your feedback. I was not aware of these issues happening so my sincerest apologies as we want everyone to always have a wonderful 5-star vacation and waiting 2 days for a response is not acceptable. I am going to dig into this today to see where the breakdown was so that it can be fixed and will speak with maintenance about why he did not at least tidy up the trash area (we don't have the capacity to do garbage runs for household trash but leaving it a mess is definitely not the answer. I'm truly sorry you did not have a five star stay and will take your feedback to help our staff do better.

Description is accurate. Place is right on the beach. Secluded, which could be a deterrent if you want options for entertainment and dining, but then again it could be exactly what you’re wanting.

The view and access to the beach is superb. However, several listed amenities were not provided: no gas grill, no cleaning products, no snorkeling equipment, patio furniture shown in pictures was non-existent. Heat pump didn't function properly. TV blacks out intermittently. In addition, several things needed maintenance: rusted light fixtures in bathrooms, rusty hole in grill on fireplace, and utility room door won't close. Chairs and sofas creak badly when used. Four wicker chairs around dining table didn't belong. (These were pictured on the upstairs balcony, which was bare.) The king bed in the master is over 36" tall and unsafe (a step stool is needed to get in/out). The washer/dryer are ages old and different brands. The utility room has junk stored floor-to-ceiling in an unused shower. The provided patio furniture consisted of: 2 tall bar plastic stools, a normal-height plastic table, two low-height side tables. In summary, the property is not as described and needs renovation.
Melyssa G - Posted: 2/17/2024
Hey Melissa thank you for the feedback so we can improve in areas needed. The grill is a propane tank, which is considered gas. We do not keep cleaning chemicals/solutions in the home as they are hazardous for children staying. Not sure what you meant by heat pump functioning, it is a large property with multiple bathrooms and it does take the water a minute or so to get hot but it is functioning. The light fixtures have been repaired, unfortunately anything metal inside or outside gets rusted more easily on a home directly on the beach. The utility room doors on both side of the property do close, we keep them open so you can clearly see the washer and dryer, but hopefully that doesn't ruin anyones stay. The sofas and chairs have all been repaired or tightened since your stay. Guest move the chairs around the property to suit their needs, which we totally allow. The king bed in the master has never received a height complaint until this review, and we have been renting this property for a few years now. The utility room has beach toys to be used by guest and the owners do use as storage in the extra showers which are covered by curtains and not listed as an amenity in the listing for this purpose. The washer and dryer are older and different brands as this is a vacation rental house, but they are functional. The patio furniture has been updated this past Spring (2024) and there are new loungers and andirondak chairs with awesome cushions to use now. This is an older beach house, not advertised as brand new but we do maintain the property and are quick to respond to any issues or feedback to improve the guest experience, so we appreciate the feedback as there is always room for improvements. We would love a chance to host you again!

Location truly makes this property stand out! The highlight is its convenient access to the quite stretch of beach. During our stay in early January, the beach remained uncrowded for most of the day. The property's proximity to a State Park added to the tranquility, especially during morning walks. For avid shell hunters, the rocks approximately 1/2 mile north of the property offered a plentiful collection. Another standout feature was the management company's responsiveness to our minor needs, contributing to a positive experience. On the downside, we found the house to be somewhat dated and would recommend much-needed refurbishing. The outdoor furniture could use replacement, and it's worth noting that the master bedroom bed is quite high (36"+), requiring a stool for older individuals. We found cleaning cost was excessive.

Great place for a family vacation directly on a quiet, uncrowded beach. Comfortable old school beach cottage. If you are looking for a new McMansion on the beach, probably not for you. Our family really enjoyed the stay. Not many places like this left. The area is a hidden gem. Plenty to do a short drive away.

This place was a cozy, clean, peaceful beautifully decorated beach house. Right on the ocean to hear the waves and walk the beach. Services were provided for groceries before we got off the plane. The only disappointment was the family next door that took over all the beach chairs, grill and other shared amminites. Maybe for the future next time have separated beach chairs on each side of the condos so everyone can share. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The Tipsy Turtle was great. Pros: Lots of room and comfortable beds! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Even a dishwasher :-) The washer and dryer were also handy. Listining to the waves as we slept was heavenly. Grocery store was a quick drive down the road and places to eat were not too far away. Cons: There is still visible damage on the beach from the 2022 hurricanes. We had a fabulous time!

We appreciated the location of the place as it is not overly populated and, for the most part, you feel like you have a beach to yourself. Communication from property management was excellent, as there were a few items that needed to be addressed and they were handled quickly and professionally. Overall, it is the kind of place where you can feel comfortable, relax and simply enjoy what is right outside the door without doing a lot of running around.

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.

Experience seashore from patio, private beach, private hottub, private Sit out area …Overall it was very nice experience living in this house for 3 days, it felt like a home. very cooperative and supportive owners for best experience. House was very clean and well equipped, and mostly you will not miss anything. And as soon as you will look out side the window I am sure you will forget everything and will get indulge in mesmerizing outside ocean view.

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.
