Great view. Good communication.
Loved the location of Jessica’s place. So nice being right on the beach!
Wonderful place
Great, clean condo in perfect location to beach. Quiet and relaxing.
Beautiful view
The beachfront view from this condo was amazing however, the inside was in bad need of some overall updating. Kitchen was very lacking. Hardly much to cook with. Kitchen faucet needed to go. Furniture was old.
Great time! Facilities were excellent.
The condo is amazing! Definitely will be back! The views are amazing and Jessica is very quick to respond if you have any questions. We loved everything about our weekend there. No need to look anywhere else, book here and you won’t regret it.
Not for me
Very outdated needs new furniture it was tacky and dirty as was the outside deck, will not stay there again
Loved this place! Couldn’t ask for a better location. Private beach in front. Two chairs and an umbrella on the back deck for our use. Booked at the last minute and can’t believe the awesome value we landed. We saw white crabs, dolphins swimming in the early morning hours, and little fish in the ocean. Book it because you won’t regret it.
Great beachfront condo! Amazing location right on 30A and right on the beach, so super convenient for the kiddos that want to spend all of their time on the sand! And the condo itself is very nice, clean and has a great layout for a family of 4. We got in lots of togetherness and quality time but without feeling cramped. Really appreciated having the laundry in-house, and the full-size kitchen and bar set-up was very useful as well. Will definitely look to stay at Jessica's condo again!
communication was great.. we had an issue with the door and they were on top of it and had it fixed
Great place overall for this desirable area. Enjoyed our stay and had great weather to help us enjoy our time. Check-in/out process was very smooth. A couple of little things that could’ve been better with the place, but definitely worth it for the value. Would recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay at the condo , best part is the view , worst part is Dylan’s beach chairs . Would never rent from them again . We booked the chairs in advance for 40$ a day only to realize they were not set up , and the office never picked up the phone . So we were left with no chairs having paid this price . I would recommend staying at Jessica’s condo , but of course not the beach service chairs . Horrible experience Svetlana
Location location!! This place is perfect for hopping on and off the beach. You can hear the waves inside your room. Beach access is a breeze. Check in/out and communication with owner was super easy and helpful. I highly recommend!
Very good use of space, amazing oceanfront views! King size bed was super comfy. Plenty of kitchen utensils and items to use. The couch/chairs were super comfortable, however the sleeper sofa was not comfortable, but that’s the gamble with a sleeper sofa. I would suggest putting a mattress topper or have an air mattress. Loved all the hooks to hang bags, towels, etc. This was our first time to this part of the gulf, absolutely loved the beach here. We used Dillons for our chair/umbrella rentals, and it was super comfortable and shady! I would strongly suggest you to rent bikes to commute between the area. Most people get around by bikes and golf carts ( golf carts are not permitted in all of the areas on 30a). The hub had parking available during the day but come evening time it was packed. The hub is only 1 mile walk or bike. I strongly recommend the hub, really cool place! Our favorite restaurant was La Cocina in Alys beach area, the food was fresh and well presented.
Perfect for couples - great location
My newlywed wife and I had the pleasure of enjoying our mini-honeymoon here. We have been visiting 30A annually for the past several years staying at different places to find the perfect spot. This was hands down our favorite. We will be staying here again in the future.
Perfect Spot
Loved the condo! It was perfect for my husband and me; it had everything we needed. Everything was well furnished and clean. The access to the beach was amazing and overall wasn’t terribly crowded. We used Dillons beach service for chairs and highly recommend doing that! Jessica was a great host and will definitely use again!
Best vacation ever! Host made us feel like family and helped coordinate an amazing proposal for us! This will most certainly be an annual vacation for us.
Amazing place, right on the water and perfect location between towns. Great spots on the beach were always available since only people staying in the area had access, no overcrowding! Will be coming back!
Highly recommend! This is a cozy, clean condo right on the beach. Had everything we needed for a great stay, king size bed was very comfy, too, but it’s all about the view!! Our second stay at Seamist and we’ll definitely back!
Enjoyed our stay and the complex
Enjoyed our stay and the top floor views
Amazing view doesn’t get any better! Safe secure building and location.
Love staying here! We will be back for a 3rd time soon! Thank you, Jessica of sharing your special place!
Perfect Getaway Destination
We had a wonderful extended weekend stay at Seamist unit #10. The unit was clean and fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We unfortunately didn’t have the best weather but having the beach access we were still able to get in plenty of beach time. We will definitely be back!
Response from Jessica and Michaell
Thank you Cameron. We look forward to having you guys back. Next time I'll put in the order for better weather a bit earlier to ensure it arrives.
Great location and view! Jessica and Michaell were great too work with. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and dishes. We really enjoyed our stay!
Amazing location! Will definitely be returning.
Nice getaway on the beach
Easy team to work with and perfect location on the beach.
The ocean views and beach access are amazing. The condo felt very clean, safe, and comfortable. The size was perfect for a couple. We would definitely stay again.
Great location and perfect for a weekend getaway. Host communicated great. Absolutely no issues.
We enjoyed our week, had great communication with the hostess and everything we needed.
Incredible location. Adorable place. Would love to return.
Response from Jessica and Michaell
We would love to have you back! thanks for letting me know about the can opener, replacement is on its way :)
Great space and great host!
This is a perfect getaway -- nestled between Rosemary/Alys and Seaside, how much better could it get? Open the doorwall, and the gentle Gulf waves lull you.....ahhhhhhh happy, happy
Great views!!
Great place on the beach
The place is wonderfully situated in the best part of the beach. It is nicely decorated, convenient, fully equipped and packed with ustensiles. We had most of our meals on the balcony, from where we enjoyed the waves and even saw a few ray fish jumping out of the water. The host, Jessica, is a super host. The wifi was good.
If you are looking for magic look no further. The house is overlooking the ocean you can hear the waves through the sliding glass door as you enter the home. Truly beautiful. The location is in between Alyse beach and Watercolor. Great restaurants in any direction you drive. Beautiful parks and towns. Great family location! We will absolutely be back. Jessica made the accommodations comfortable, clean, and had a ton of recommendations leading up to our arrival that made us be able to plan. It was truly a trip to remember!
Perfect place to stay. Comfortable and beautiful.
The view is Amazing!!! The place is clean and has everything that is needed there if you decide to cook in!! We had a wonderful time and really hated to see our time end!!
There were serious issues with the cleanliness of this property, especially considering this listing has Airbnb's enhanced cleaning badge associated with it. The following is a list of the issues we experienced. Please note that I also documented and photographed all issues the day I arrived and sent those to the owner. Bedroom: The bedding was totally unacceptable. Upon pulling back the covers to get into bed it was discovered that there was significant amounts of sand at the foot of the bed, on top of the fitted sheet but under the top sheet. I reached out to the owner to find out if back up bedding was provided in the condo and to inform her of my discovery. At this point it was late in the evening on our long travel day to the location. After discovering there was no other bedding and stripping the bed to begin washing the sheets I found the bed topper was also quite disgusting. There were countless body hairs all over the bed topper as well as dark spots and sand. It was very clear that it had not been laundered in some time and not changed between guests. Ultimately, I had to freshly launder ALL the bedding for my family which took till the wee hours of the following morning to complete and get back on the mattress. Not only is this not up to standards for COVID 19 protocols but it is also not clean in general. A thin fitted sheet is not protection from a previous person's body fungus, lice, dirt, dander, germs, or virus. The bed topper was almost as thin as the fitted sheet and was easily laundered in the small stacked apartment washer that's in the unit. There is no excuse for not changing this after each guest. The bedroom fan was also quite gross. There was a thick layer of dust on the fan blades when I turned it off. Bathroom: There was visible beige splatter all over the white door that continued to the pictures on the wall behind the door, as well as up that same wall. I assumed it was either a previous guests hair product or tinted sunscreen, as it did wipe off easily, so it wasn't paint or something intended to be there. The bathroom vanity mirror still had some sort of opaque splatter on it as well. Kitchen: The white kitchen cabinets had visible food splatter on a few of the cabinet fronts as well as dark brown dirt/grime surrounding all the frequently used pulls. Given the build-up of this grime there is no way these are wiped down regularly between guests nor is it possible each pull is being cleaned per the enhanced cleaning procedures Airbnb has detailed. Given these findings we were left questioning the overall cleanliness of the entire condo. I took the time to wipe everything myself and wash all our dishes prior to use for the remainder of our stay, just for peace of mind. I did ask the owner for a refund on the cleaning fee since I was left to do it all myself and she only offered to cover half in order to "be fair to her cleaning staff". Obviously, I don't think that was sufficient for the experience I had. I did find the owner to be responsive and courteous. I just think she believed her cleaning staff over her guest. After I provided her photos she agreed to half the refund. I chose this property because of its enhanced cleanliness commitment and was very disappointed. I feel a full refund for cleaning should've been offered. The owner knew that the bed topper was not changed between each guest as she wrote in a message to me: "the mattress topper is not changed each time. You might indeed see sand or hair under the sheets when stripping the bed." For reference the enhanced cleaning protocol from Airbnb that I expected per the listing claimed the following:https://www.airbnb.com/d/enhancedclean and https://www.airbnb.com/cleaning/handbookCleaning Process o Extra time is allowed for enhanced cleaning procedures. o Surfaces are cleaned and then disinfected, in two distinct steps. o A bleach solution is used on surfaces for disinfecting. The solution is allowed to linger on the surface. o Cleaning crews use hand sanitizer as they leave their vehicles. o Cleaning personnel follow CDC hand washing guidelines throughout the day. o Cleaning crews use masks and disposable gloves. o As always, remote check ins eliminate face to face interactions. o Cleaning crews put on fresh gloves after handling dirty linens. o Blankets/comforters are removed for laundering and replaced with a freshly washed item.
Response from Jessica and Michaell
Hi Ashely. We are very sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay and you didn't feel the cleaning was sufficient. We strive to make every guest feel safe, secure, and have a great vacation. As per our conversation during your stay, my cleaning crew chief actually performed this cleaning herself and the unit was verified to be ready for you by our property manager. I know you feel like the sheets weren't clean but given the way the crew operates, I remain very confident that the bed was clean and safe. Nevertheless, I am sorry that you had the impression this was not the case. I know this is a difficult time for everyone and sensitivities are heightened - as they should be. This is why we developed, in conjunction with local and national guidance, the cleaning policies that we have to make sure the places provide and clean and safe place for people to relax in. I hope you are able to find a property in the area that will better meet your standards in the future as we would love to have you guys back to 30a in the future.
