Private Adult Retreat on 30A | Pool + Spa + Bikes
Escape to one of 30A's most beloved hidden gems — a secluded two-bedroom, two-bath cottage nestled in the quiet Old Seacrest community (not Seacrest Beach planned community), perfectly positioned between Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach, and The Big Chill. This is a private adult retreat designed for couples and groups of up to four who want the full 30A experience without the crowds.
Whether you're sipping coffee on the front porch daybed or relaxing on the patio, this hidden gem is built for rest and reconnection. Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with bead board cabinets, a spacious island, and all the essentials to cook or entertain. The open-concept layout includes a cozy sectional sofa, a 60" Smart TV with streaming options, and a separate desk area for remote work.
The king bedroom offers luxury linens, a smart TV, ample storage, and a private ensuite bath with a ¾ shower. The second bedroom features a queen bed, hand-painted furniture, and unique art. A guest bathroom with tub/shower combo is located off the hallway. A full laundry room and outdoor shower round out your comforts.
Out back, the showstopper is the lushly landscaped private backyard with a massive 11x30 pool and spa — one of the largest on all of 30A — an oasis all its own. Lounge, float, or recharge: this is where vacation truly begins. Grab one of the four complimentary cruiser bikes and ride to Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach, or The Big Chill in minutes. Beach access is direct and just a short walk away.

This is the cutest property and was perfect for the four of us. We loved the pool and hot tub so much we didn’t even venture to the gulf water - which is close by. You’re also going to love the screened in front porch.The beds and pillows are very comfortable and the house is stocked with everything you might need for your stay.

This place was perfect! A short 5 min bike ride to the beach! They had chairs, umbrellas, coolers and more! They had branded koozies for each of us in the drawer! We had forgot laundry detergent and zip lock bags at the store and they had each of them at the house!! The house was so clean! There are 5 beach towels to use! One of the bikes has a wagon to haul things! The front porch swing was the most relaxing spot! The front porch is screened in! There is shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in each of the inside bathrooms as well as the outside shower! The only thing that we would have had differently is something over the windows to make it darker at night and for the early sunrise! That is just personal preference though! There were plenty of pillows!In the 2nd room there were some kids books and blocks for kids to play with. We also left some uno cards! The pool was a little warmer than we would have liked but the host can’t control the hot hot days! We can’t wait to go back next year! It seriously was THE BEST WEEK!!!! It was about 45 min to an hour drive to Destin area for dinner around 5:30p in the evening. Took us approx 1.5 hours to get to the Destin/Fort Waltin Airport. 20 min drive to Seaside yesterday at 3:15p. Donut Hole location about 10’ish minutes away. Paths to bike to some local places to eat. Door Dash had no problem finding the location for food deliveries. The host was very responsive to questions.

Wow! We have stayed at many different houses in 30A over the past 10 years and this is by far the best property we’ve ever stayed at! I research houses for vacation like it’s my job and we’ve never stayed at the same house twice but we will 100% be back here. The house is small but adorable. It was just myself and my husband on our anniversary trip and it was the perfect size. The backyard area with the pool is what dreams are made of, we loved it! This was our first time biking to the beach and it was so easy and quick! The house was well stocked. The TVs were all large and the WiFi worked great! We loved having breakfast on the screened in porch. The street is peaceful and the setting is beautiful. Heather was a great host and you could tell a lot of thought has gone into making this a great spot! We had no issues with the property and cannot wait to come back!

This property photographs beautifully and does not disappoint in real life. Every room was well-appointed and spotless, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The property includes plenty of beach equipment, bikes, chairs, umbrellas, and more. Check-in was easy, and the property manager communicates clearly and as needed throughout the stay.

A Hidden Oasis!
We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more. We were looking for a property close to the beach but we also wanted a “private” pool. The photos on the advertisement were spot-on. The pool is beautiful and we had to pry ourselves away to go to the beach. Everything we needed was there. The pre-check-in information was very detailed and provided easy access for our entry. The A/C worked great and the bed was very comfortable. The whole property is super clean and the furnishings and decorations were beautifully done. When we finally decided to leave the pool and go to the beach everything we needed was available from bicycles to chairs and beach towels. The house is nestled in a beautifully manicured yard and the area is quiet and private. It was truly a great experience, and the few questions we had during our stay were immediately responded to by our host. We highly recommend this property for anyone that values privacy, peace, and quiet. It is a hidden oasis!

Perfection in Every Way!
I don’t have enough space to say how amazing this property is. My top 10 favorite things…
1. The home is spotless and perfectly furnished.
2. I absolutely love the outdoor shower! So beautifully crafted, and all the amenities too.
3. Having the cart to attach to one of the bikes was so perfect. We used it to bring home carry-out breakfast and pizza, to grab groceries, to take all our chairs to the beach.
4. I love really cute coffee mugs with some thing special printed on the inside. The kitchen has everything you need including really sweet coffee mugs.
5. From dinner recommendations to the perfect spot for a Mani/Peti (I❤️”Polished”) the owner’s ideas were fantastic.
6. Everything was conveniently located to this house. The beach, the shopping, restaurants, Publix, everything easy to get to.
7. All of the knobs on the doors and cabinets are perfectly chosen Seaglass colors.
8. The beds were very comfortable! This is important to us.
9. I love the swing on the front porch. Very clean. Very sturdy. So relaxing.
10. We never watch TV on vacation. I have to say that the couch and TV area are so inviting, we did watch a great show on Netflix and also played cards in this area.
I have sent so many great pictures to my friends and family. We will definitely be back.

Peaceful, near beach bungalow.
Received a text as soon as checkin was available. The place looked spotless and smelled very clean. Have to admit the the wife was initially disappointed with the location being approximately .5 mile from the beach. However, while having a drink on the porch the first night she appreciated the privacy and atmosphere offered by the location. The bicycles were a nice touch, along with provided beach amenities. This was our first VRBO experience and will not be our last. Heather is an excellent host. The panhandle is now our favorite Florida destination. We will return.

We loved this home. The owners thought of everything to make the stay enjoyable. From the goodies and note waiting for us to the bikes, chairs and umbrellas. We loved sitting on the screened porch at night playing checkers. All the decor is updated and makes you feel at home. The owners were very responsive to any questions. Easy 5 minute bike ride to the beach. Great location! We would definitely stay again!!
