Great location!
We really enjoyed this place! Sea Haunts is a great, gated townhome community south of 30A, making the walk to the beach a breeze. We really enjoyed the privacy (it’s an end unit and we did not have neighbors on the other side). The beach was really not that crowded, especially given the time of year. Nice grassy common area to take my dog out. Great proximity to Gulf Place. We walked to Papa Surf Burger Bar for dinner. The only slightly awkward thing (but certainly wasn’t a deal breaker for us) is that you must go through the first level bedroom to get in and out of the front door. Just something to be aware of if privacy is a concern. Also, we could not find any kitchen towels, dishcloths, or potholders so just something we wanted to note. We figured someone might have washed them and forgot to put them back. Additionally, we could not get the master bedroom tv to turn off with the remote or power button, so we had to unplug it. The owner did a lovely job of updating the place. Very cute! We enjoyed the beautiful weather and would definitely stay here again!

The condo was very nice and clean. The location was great… walking distance to town and short walk to the beach. Overall we were very satisfied. It would have been nice if the back patio was cleaned up. Thanks so much.

Best One Yet!
We’ve stayed at the Sea Haunts 3 times prior to this stay and this is our favorite unit yet! Communication with the property manager was fantastic. Door/gate codes and instructions started a week prior to our visit with reminders the day before and day of check-in. The unit was very clean with and superbly updated. Showers were awesome and large with marble touches and niches for everything and teak seats for the ladies. Views were fantastic and the pool/hot tub situation is great for the red and double red flag days at the beach. We and our 5 kids love this place and hope to book it again next year. Wonderful spot on 30A!! Love it!

The 30A can be super busy, but this location is perfect. We were very close to everything and an easy drive to Seaside or Rosemary Beach. Great pool and appreciate the fact that it was heated literally steps to the beach. We had a marvelous time!

Wonderful
This is a beautiful place to stay in a wonderful area. The gated courtyard area is very pretty and well maintained. On the beach in minutes. We were able to use the hot tub from neighboring condo rental which was a great way to end our evening. Pool is not heated but is big and would be useful during the summer months. We had a great time walking to nearby establishments all with great food! Thanks for a break from our winter back home.

Great Fall Break
The property was as advertised. Our family feels that Sea Haunts is a hidden gem and it once again did not disappoint. We had never stayed in 6A and it was very nice. I want to emphasize that, while not directly on the beach, you can still see the water from the balcony, and it’s a very short and safe walk to the beach.

Hard to reach management so issues no resolved quickly
Upon arriving there were no hand towels and soap in half bath. The lower bath had one bath cloth but no hand towels. The kitchen trash cans had no bags. After 3 calls someone came out the second day. I was awoken to sounds of crawling roaches in the lower bedroom. There were others found in kitchen and hall. I called and they sent out traps and spray. One of the biggest issues is the lower bedroom is pretty much unusable. There is a slider door that separates the stairway to back door so you can go out that way without disturbing occupant of that room. As it was, the owner chose not to let landscapers maintain his unit so it was an overgrown jungle out there. No one was willing to walk down the side of building to get out that way. Bottom line, that room was unusable. My boys didn’t want the others coming through his room all night with the dogs. We used 2 bedrooms. The last day of our trip the neighbor next door had the landscaping company clear out his brush so the pavers were visible. Too late for us. I think the owner of 6A needs to maintain his lawn area or let it be known in description there is only one way out - the front door.

Great area but AC unit does not cool
The location on the beach and near restaurants/shops is fabulous - this is a great area. The cleanliness was decent but there were a couple misses like the shower drains had a bunch of hair and this should have been taken care of during cleaning. Our main issue was the AC unit not cooling in the afternoon. We had young kids who nap and their monitors were reading 84 and 88 degrees inside different rooms so they had issues sleeping with it being so uncomfortable.

Amazing location
Although our trip was short this townhome was PERFECT for our family! We have two toddlers and the upstairs master suit had a small room attached with a trundle bed where both of our kids slept. The location of the beach (1 minute walk) made it so easy to be at the beach whenever we wanted! Just a 3 minute car ride to a bunch of shops and restaurants, this VRBO is ideal for any family!

Summer Get Away
The place is real nice. Beach and pool are great. The one thing that needs to be fixed because it is very dangerous is the stairs between the first and second floor. The hand rail only goes half way down the stairs. This should be fixed because it is unsafe to walk up and down the stairs without anything to hang on to.

Pros and cons of property
The location of the property was wonderful. The grounds were well-maintained and easily navigated. The pool is easily accessible, as is the beach. The townhouse itself was clean with more than ample kitchen and bathroom necessities. The top floor was as described and for the most part excellent. Those sleeping in the master bed found the sheets to be rough and described them as “feeling like sand was all in them”. We enjoyed the half bathroom on the second floor and ease of access to washer and dryer. A suggestion would be to have more places to hang towels for the bathrooms. A fatal flaw for us was the configuration of the bottom floor and inability to sufficiently cool it. The front door goes into a long hallway and is the quickest (and most used ) access to the upper two floors. Unfortunately, if you use the front door, you have to go through the downstairs bedroom to get to the stairs. The hallway does not appear to have an AC vent nor does the half closet. Another issue is that this is where you access the garage from the inside. Long story short, the bedroom stayed about 77 degrees and it was way too hot to sleep. There is a back door access to the steps but it is inconvenient and the path to it grown up with grass. Additionally, the back door is immediately adjacent to the bedroom adding to the heat situation. The bedroom door is barn door style and does not cover the doorway for sufficient privacy. If you only need two bedrooms, the is an excellent place to rent. However, if you are counting on the third downstairs bedroom, would not rent in warm or hot weather. Hope this is helpful. Oh, we enjoyed the art work, stenciled walls, and use of all the beach “stuff” in the garage.
