Incredible Gulf Views from Balcony in Seaside, Across from Beach, + 2 Bikes

1 King, 1 Queen Sleeper Sofa, Sleeps 4

Perched above Seaside’s iconic Central Square, Cork the Whine offers a rare, elevated escape where the Gulf of Mexico and the vibrant energy of town unfold beneath you. Located on the third floor of the Dreamland Heights building, this stylish one-bedroom condo delivers breathtaking, panoramic Gulf and town views—anchored by a private balcony that truly steals the show.

From sunrise to sunset, the balcony becomes your front-row seat to Seaside’s most unforgettable moments. Begin your mornings with coffee as the Gulf shimmers in the distance, spend afternoons watching the rhythm of Central Square below, and settle in for golden-hour sunsets that melt into the horizon. As evening arrives, enjoy live music floating up from the Seaside Amphitheater or experience holiday celebrations like New Year’s Eve and Fourth of July fireworks from your own private perch above it all.

Guests arrive via elevator and are welcomed by a spacious shared deck just outside the unit, offering additional seating and sweeping views of both town and Gulf—an inviting preview of what awaits inside. The condo’s unique multi-level layout leads you upstairs to an open, light-filled living space designed to highlight the scenery beyond the windows. Tall ceilings, expansive glass, and relaxed coastal furnishings frame the view, while a queen sleeper sofa invites you to linger and take it all in.

The living area flows seamlessly into a fully equipped kitchen, where preparing meals is a pleasure rather than a task. Whether mixing cocktails at sunset, assembling beach-day lunches, or enjoying a quiet dinner in, the kitchen offers everything needed for effortless entertaining. Bar seating for three creates a casual gathering spot, while a cozy dining table for two allows for intimate meals—each positioned to keep the Gulf and town views front and center.

Step directly from the living space onto the private balcony to fully immerse yourself in the experience. Overlooking Central Square and the Gulf beyond, this outdoor retreat is ideal for evening drinks, people-watching, or simply soaking in the coastal breeze as the sky shifts colors above the water.

The entry level of the condo offers a tranquil king primary bedroom with large windows that capture views of the town and Gulf below—allowing you to wake each morning to Seaside’s charm. A full hall bath with a single vanity and tub-and-shower combination is conveniently located just outside the bedroom.

Beach access is just steps away via the Central Square entrance at Coleman Pavilion, making it easy to transition from balcony views to toes-in-the-sand moments. Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis in designated shared spaces behind the 121 Central Square building and along Quincy Circle.

Perfect for couples, special occasions, or anyone seeking an unforgettable stay above the heart of Seaside, Cork the Whine offers a one-of-a-kind perspective—where every moment is elevated, and every view leads back to the Gulf.

Seaside Getaway

The property location could not be more perfect. The check-in process was easy and the employee checking us in was very helpful. The condo definitely needs some updating. There are several areas that need to be attended to. Thank you.

Many positives with some negatives.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Seaside is my favorite beach town. I love that my condo was overlooking the square. The condo was great although there were some issues; I didn't have AC the first day, there was no water pressure in the bathroom sink & the spiral stairs was very difficult to get up and down.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great return visit to our other home!! They say home is where the heart is and Seaside has had my heart for 30 years. We have lived, worked, organized car rally’s, tennis champions, loved, lost and laughed through the years. Staying with Homeowner’s Collection brings excellence to my return experience. I could not be happier to know the best of the best are running the Collection.

Great Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cork the Whine was a wonderful location for my beach stay. The view from the balcony was the my favorite. The accommodations were good. The ice machine was broken my full stay and maintenance never fixed it but Homeowners was kind enough to bring me ice on three occasions. For the price, I do think some updates to the cottage are needed. There is just wear and tear on the place but nothing broken or unsanitary. Overall it was a great stay.

Both loved & struggled with the location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We both loved & struggled with the location! It's close to everything! But because of that it was very loud at night and very early in the morning. Every morning at 6am they pressure wash the sidewalks directly below the unit. Also, the "sofa bed" isn't really much of a bed. Our daughter had to sleep on the couch as when you unfold the "bed" it laid directly on the ground and you couldn't put a sheet on it. The unit was well stocked, clean and in an amazing location! We loved having the Market right next door.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fantastic location and the Homeowners Collection really is a great alternative to the other vacation rental platforms. Their customer service alone sets them apart.The 1 bedroom place is adequately cooled via window unit airconditioners, but truth be told I hadnt operated one since the dive apartment I rented in college.The location cannot be beat; you really are in the heart of Seaside. However its been a minute since the unit has been "refreshed" and there are some signs of that such as the dry rot around the window sills and paint stains in the upperlevel around the kitchen area.All of that said, I would recommend staying at this condo and would definitely recommend utilizing The Homeowners Collection for your next vacation rental.
