About this property

1 KING, 1 QUEEN, 1 BUNKROOM WITH 4 TWINS

Shell Station is ideally located – close to the beach, close to the town square, close to the pools and close to Watercolor but surrounded by Seaside...

Shell Station is decorated in the colors of a Gulf sunset. Light floods through a rose-colored cupola into a 3-story living/dining room with whimsical original art and a book-lined fireplace wall. Shell Station combines dramatic open space with several cozy nooks for reading or dreaming.

You'll enter through the screened-in front porch perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening wine and just watching the town stroll by. On the first level are the main living areas including a dreamy full kitchen where several cooks can create meals together. For fall and winter evenings, there is a wood-burning fireplace new sectional sofa with plenty of room for seating. A queen guest room completes the main level with a newly remodeled en suite bath (shower only), also accessible to guests from the living room.

Upstairs is the master retreat with raised king-size bed, indoor balcony overlooking the main living space, and French doors leading to another screened porch that feels like a tree house and offers a nice swing bed to enjoy the Seaside ambiance. From up there you can hear the waves when the Gulf is lively.

The second guest room is also upstairs with two sets of bunkbeds, another indoor balcony, and art that will make you smile. Both bedrooms share another remodeled full bath (shower only).

A back porch with wrap-around seating, BBQ grill, and outdoor shower allows you to enjoy beach living both inside and out while staying at Shell Station. Located on Pensacola Street, Shell Station has beach access via the pelican-topped Pensacola Pavilion - the best one at Seaside!

Great stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Shell Station was a great stay! good space, good location. It is one of our favorites. It needs a new hair dryer. I don't care if one is provided, but if you are going to provide, it should work well. :)

First Timer....

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Our first time in “the Panhandle” of Florida. We had a wonderful time and would come back, but would stay away in March still too chilly and spring breakers were a bit much! The porch furniture could stand to be changed out with newer furniture, but loved the proximity to beach and town. Loved being able to walk/ride bikes pretty much everywhere!

Perfect getaway house

This house has great access to the beach and to the square in seaside. Super cute and had just about everything we needed. Tv's in bedrooms would be nice and maybe some new pillows in the downstairs bedroom. Otherwise, it was perfect! Would definitely stay here again.

Shell Station Sprung Break April 2022

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was 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: Homeowner’s Collection was wonderful in every way from beginning to end!Our choice of Shell Station lacked a couple of things we missed greatly. No closets in bedrooms, no TV’s in bedrooms other than master. The master had to share a bathroom with the bunk room, which was not ideal due to size and shortage of towels. We loved the porches, the design, and the location. The master bed requires steps because it is on a platforms allowing it to have storage beneath the bed. Our biggest complaint came from the unruly teenagers who ruled the community! Stores had to limit hours and the entire community was under an eight pm curfew with businesses closed by seven except restaurants. The streets were locked with chains making travel challenging! Seaside is an awesome community and these unruly teens are locals and visitors who have no supervision! It is tragic and hard for the families who don’t want to hear bad language and underage drinking all hours. Once again Shell Station was beautiful, super cute with great location. It just did not work well for our family. I would recommend Homeowner’s Collection but U would ask more questions and make sure I was getting the best house for our family needs!

Wonderful visit to Seaside!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at Shell Station. The property is clean and well maintained, and the living space is wonderful for a group, especially with small kids. The location can't be beat - less than a block to the beach pavilion and two blocks to the town center. Worth noting that the oven is not full size, as you're meal planning for your trip, and that things like salt, pepper, oil are not provided. Not at all an issue, but do include them on your shopping list! Beds were very comfortable (note: master requires a step stool as it is set over storage drawers), and rooms were surprisingly soundproofed, considering they all open to the main living space. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place but...

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was great. We had 8 people (4 teens and 4 adults). Only a few houses from the beach so it was a great location because it was far away from 30A that you didn't hear the "thumpers" driving by. It was large enough for all 8 of us but we could not all sit at the same table since it only seats six so two of us had to sit at the bar. The property manager called us on our way down there to tell us the previous renters had broken a window so it would be boarded up and we appreciated the heads up.A few things that were a little disappointing:1. They only give you enough dishwasher tabs and toilet paper for two days and we were told we we had to purchase our own. I have never rented a house where that happens as necessities are always supplied for the entire stay. Laundry detergent, absolutely you should have to purchase if you need to wash things, but toilet paper and dishwasher tabs are basic needs. They give you a cooler bag, a bottle of wine (we don't drink) and two beach towels, which is nice, but I would have rather been supplied the basic needs like toilet paper and dishwasher tabs instead. The bag we threw away because it ripped the first time we put anything in it so I am not sure it is worth their money.2. The house also came with two bike rentals which was very nice and we were super excited about BUT unfortunately the bike rental place neglected to tell us that bikes are stolen frequently down there and to ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE BIKES ARE LOCKED UP. Needless to say, ours were stolen and not only did we spend about 8 man hours looking in every nook and cranny from Seaside to Watercolor for them and never found them but now we are going to have to pay $600 to replace them. We were under the impression that Seaside was a nice place and didn't think we were in a high crime area. This had nothing to do with the house, just Seaside in general. This was our first and last time to stay in Seaside as the stolen bikes ruined our vacati

Another Great Seaside Location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Shell station on Pensacola was another home run seaside property! Our party of six included for senior high school boys and the bunk room was perfect. We had room to spare. Kitchen as well appointed the gathering room was ideal (large flat screen, DVD player, Onkyo surround sound) and the dining area seated 6 easily. A brand new charcoal grill and convection oven made our home cooked meal of Grilled Veggies, Grilled Red Snapper / Bourbon Glazed Grilled Salmon, oven-fried Parmesan smashed potatoes EASY!! 6 houses from the Pensacola Pavilion two minutes to the town plaza and five minute walk to the fitness center made “Shell Station “ an ideal location.Coaches and Bedding was very comfortable, linens, towels and bathrooms were just right and the two large screened porches made for comfy hangouts in the morning and evening. My only critique was the price. The Covid surcharge for cleaning and other hidden fees are really frustrating but I guess that’s the way things are these days.

We will definitely be returning to “Shell Station” in the future.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our rental experience was great. We’ve been bringing our own cleaning supplies with us so we can do a wipe down of everything since Covid. The last rental we stayed at in Seaside that was managed by a different rental agency was not very clean. ShellStation was spotless however and because of this we are renting from the homeowners collection again when we come back in March.

Nahh...

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location a few houses from beach and near the pool and downtown Seaside. Comfortable beds. Screened in porch areas were nice. But house is more worn than photos reveal and the furniture is wobbly and in bad shape. The lower dishwasher rack didn't fit in the dishwasher which was tedious to deal with attempting to avoid breaking dishes. The house was not spotlessly clean- the floors were absolutely filthy leaving feet and socks black and there was garbage under the patio and around the outdoor trash bin area. This made me question what the covid cleaning precautions entailed or if it was just another way to create a surcharge.
