Northeast Florida Retreat

Welcome to the Seaside Sammie, arguably the coolest vacation rental in Vilano Beach. Just a 5-minute stroll to the ocean, this beach house is packed with everything you need: multiple living spaces, a tricked-out entertainment garage, fire pit, BBQ, outdoor lounge and dining area, plus plenty of space for games, crafts, and unforgettable moments with family and friends.

Available when needed

Seaside Sammie sits on a stunning barrier island, surrounded by ocean and wildlife. While this means beautiful sunsets and dolphin sightings 🐬, you might also see some local critters like roosters, turtles, birds, and the occasional bug or lizard 🐢🦜. We do our best to keep the home pest-free with regular professional treatments, but nature is part of the charm!

Guests will have complete access to the home, aside from the owner’s closets that are key-lock protected. The fitness equipment is locked and will require a waiver to gain access. We have keyless entry and a Ring Doorbell camera for your peace of mind.
