This beautiful home is truly the Crown Jewel of Seacrest Beach!

Excellent location just steps away from the resort style lagoon pool and minutes from the private sugar white sand beach. This home is a beautiful and thoughtfully designed floor plan with spacious primary and guest king size bedrooms. Wonderful and fun large bunk room that provides quest with 2 queen and 2 double bunks. Fully equipped gourmet kitchen with seating for 14. Jump in the outdoor hot tub for a relaxing evening as you watch the gorgeous sun sets. Minutes away from some of the best shopping and 4 star dining in Florida Gulf Coast! We created wonderful family memories that we will never forget and plan to come back again and again, Thank you!

Potential is there but a bit disappointed

While the house is nice, large, and a good location, we experienced disappointment with some things that negatively impacted our experience. After arriving we realized the bunk room bed sheets had not been cleaned. There were crumbs around the mattresses and food under the bed. The sheets in one of the guest bedrooms felt sandy with food stains on the end tables. The couch had food stains. The shower in the bunk bathroom didn’t work. The outdoor grill had issues so much so that the next day a grill repair company came by to look at it, turned off the gas, and told us it was corroded and not to use. The rest of the week the patio smelled like gas so we couldn’t sit out there, despite calling the manager. There was no body soap, extra toilet paper rolls, dish detergent, laundry detergent or paper towels, so buy all of that. With the price we paid, these things should not have happened. Very disappointing.

Great House; Perfect for Families

We spent two weeks at the Crown Jewel of Seacrest Beach. Our two grown children and their families joined us for one week. The house is well stocked and perfect for families. The location is ideal for easy, walkable access to the community pool, Seacrest beach and Rosemary and Alys Beach’s restaurants and shops. We walked everywhere. We traveled with our dog so the house’s backyard access to the trail and the green pathway across the street (leading to the pool) was a bonus. The area is very pet friendly. Grant was very informative, helpful and a pleasure to work with. He always promptly responded to my texts. Check in and check out was a breeze.Great vacation ! I highly recommend the Crown Jewel !

Simply Wonderful ~

In a nutshell, we would book this property over and over again! The property was so welcoming and comfortable...truly felt like home. It was very clean, and very spacious. The open floor concept is second to none. The kitchen...everyone knows that the kitchen is the gathering place and boy did we gather! It had everything, and that oversized island served us well. Thank you for offering practical, comfortable furniture. Football was more enjoyable to watch cuddled up in a blanket on that cozy sectional. We really loved there being multiple a/c units...can't say thank you enough for that bit of luxury! All the bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were comfy. And that porch swing was perfect for my quiet times. Thank you for the bikes you made available, it made getting out and about seem like a new adventure every time. We really enjoyed our short walk to the pool. The pool was an adventure of its own. The size was perfect! And the fact they strategically place multiple restrooms around it was very convenient. The pool is where we spent most of our time. The pool is where we took long naps thanks to the therapeutic sound of the waterfalls. The pool is where we could go grab a bite of lunch and gather around our lounge chairs to devour it. The pool is where we would figure out our dinner plans. Speaking of, there wasn't one restaurant we didn't enjoy. And one restaurant we went to twice...Gallions...those baked crab claws and the grouper dish...WOW!!! But no matter where the evening took us, we always ended back up around the kitchen island... Grant & Rachel, thank you for going above and beyond to make this experience, from start to finish, over-the-top.

Retreat

We had a group of ladies that have been in our DIY finishing classes for several years. They are from all over the country and we brought them together, in person, to have a wellness retreat. The house was great, the floor plan lent itself to entertaining and everyone was pleased with the accommodations.

Amazing House

My family had an unbelievable amazing time. We love the house it had enough room for we can all spread out and not be on top of each other. The amenities in the house were wonderful from arcade games to board games to ping pong. We love that it was a short walk to the pool. We were close enough to the pool, but not so close that the traffic at the pool could be heard or seen. This was our second time staying at the house. Grant does an excellent job with communicating and answering all your questions in a timely manner. My family and I cannot wait to book the house for third time next summer. We highly recommend staying at the house. It will exceed your expectations as it did our family.

We had a very nice stay. What was frustrating was our beach access since my grandchildren and their parents wanted to be closer to the water which not possible unless you got to the beach VERY EARLY. Our host was fantastic and I will soon be sending him a separate email sharing my thoughts.

Cousin Beach Trip

We settled here, hailing from Texas and the Carolinas to enjoy some overdue cousin time. Everyone had a blast and enjoyed the home and property. We loved the comfortable bedrooms, beautiful bathrooms and well equipped kitchen. We spent a ton of time in the open concept living room especially as the weather kept us indoors for most of our stay! Easy commute to the beach and pool. Couple tips: be sure to use the provided phone number to contact the Trolley Service as they break for lunch from 12-1:00 and can’t pick up at that time. Also bring your own shampoo, conditioner and body wash!

Great stay but a few issues!

We had a great stay but some issues! Luckily, our concerns were pretty minor, really just inconveniences, one toilet giving us issues, luckily there were 4 others. They forgot to restock paper towels but were nice enough to stop by and bring when I asked. They left no extra toilet paper. The garbage bags were very cheap ones, hard to make do with. They have no cleaning products so difficult to clean up before checking out. One bed had sandy sheets so clearly not washed. They also left no shampoo, conditioner in any showers. Lastly, there are a few snacks in the pantry that are available to purchase. It seems like they skip a lot of necessities and things to make the stay truly more “stress free” and comfortable, in attempt to save money. Just be prepared and bring all these things with you! Kind of crazy considering the already very high price tag of the stay!

Truly a Crown Jewel of an Experience

We were so pleased by our entire stay at the Crown Jewel, which really lives up to its billing as a luxury destination. The home is so fresh and updated, with a fantastic kitchen for home cooking and wonderful well lit bedrooms and we loved the soothing double head showers. Access to the Seacrest Beach was easy and quick and the massive Lagoon Pool was just steps from the front door. Grant is such a gracious host, with excellent communication on all the details and very quick response times if there's ever any questions. My family is already looking forward to rebooking here on our next trip to 30A - thanks Grant for making it such a relaxing and enjoyable experience!
