The Neighborhood: The neighborhood has several businesses on the road front and residential properties beyond that. You’re only several blocks from shopping and local attractions, with the Bay and beaches on Okaloosa island only a few minutes drive.
Getting Around: Parking is along the street, on the property side of the street. It’s best to have a car to get around but Uber and Lyft are available, and there’s a ton of options in walking distance.
Other Things to Note: Seaside Escape is a limited-service, 8-unit boutique property. While there is no on-site management, our cleaning team is on the property daily and can assist when needed. Extra supplies are available in the shared laundry/supply room, and we’re always a message or call away!
This is not a secluded stay—other guests will be in the building. While the rooms are private and newly renovated, sound may carry due to thin walls.
Early check-in/late check-out is not guaranteed, but we’ll do our best to accommodate if possible.
The property is located one block off Eglin Parkway, in an older, revitalizing part of town. It’s tucked between two businesses, and while the property is well-lit, the surrounding street may feel dim at night. A nearby club can cause noise on Saturday nights, and occasional sirens may be heard due to the police/fire station a block away. Despite this, the area is safe and secure.
All guests must complete third-party screening and sign a rental agreement. Let us know if you’d like to review the agreement before booking.
Transparency matters to us—we want you to know what to expect. If you have questions or need anything during your stay, we’re always here to help. We look forward to hosting you at Seaside Escape!
Interaction with Guests: We have cleaning staff who can be available when needed or for extenuating circumstances/emergencies. Otherwise, you will have a contact-less check-in and checkout procedure - easy as pie. Extra supplies and amenity items are stored on-site for you and if needed we'll share instructions on how you can access them.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
