About this property

Seamist #3-Oceanfront at your Backdoor!!

Seamist is a private, 12 unit only condo building with spectacular, oceanfront views both from inside the unit and from the top-floor balcony (unit #3) of the pristine white sands and crystal clear waters of the Emerald Coast. It is nestled immediately between Seaside Beach & Watercolor Resort and Alys & Rosemary Beach.

This condo is a beautiful one bedroom (with king-sized bed)/one bath with an additional set of twin stacking bunk beds and a new sleeper sofa in the oceanfront-facing LR that sleeps up to 6. Unit 3 is crisp, clean and extremely welcoming. The brand new kitchen is fully equipped with all the dishware and appliances you will need. There is easy seating for 8 between the bar and dining table. Also included: wifi, full-sized/stacked w/d, 2 grilling areas on a small, nice green lawn for the kids to play on while the sun begins to set.
You will enjoy having the entire condo to yourself. I have a wonderful property manager that lives in the area and is available if you have any problems. My husband and I are available by phone, text, or email to answer any questions you might have.

Seamist on Scenic Highway 30A offers easy access to scenic hike and bike trails along the coast; deep-sea diving and other ocean activities at marinas in both Panama City Beach and Destin; shopping and browsing of art galleries and boutiques at Seaside, Watercolor and the surrounding beach communities; golfing at award-winning courses such as Camp Creek, Shark's Tooth, Origins and Santa Rosa Beach Golf & Beach Club; extraordinary dining from barefoot beachfront to world-class cuisine; and unique local entertainment impossible to resist such as farmer's markets, free outdoor repertory theater each evening and many live bands and musicians. In the end, though, the memories of moving on 'beach time' and of the peace and relaxation that comes from the sound and beauty of the crashing waves on the white sands and from breathtaking sunsets will be what you will likely enjoy the most.

The 30A sidewalk runs in front of the condo which many people use to bike to Alys Beach (1.5 miles east), Rosemary Beach (2 miles east), The Hub (an outdoor entertaining and casual dining area 1 mile west), and of course Seaside (6 miles west). Renting bikes is easy. There are lots of reasonably priced vendors in the area and they deliver and pick up the bikes to/from the condo - even if you aren't there at the time.

A single parking pass is left in the condo for you and is required to remain on your windshield during your stay. While each guest receives a parking pass, we sometimes have non-guests use our parking lot. Cars that don't have the parking pass clearly visible may get towed at the owner's expense. Sorry for the inconvenience, but not having a parking space is more inconvenient ;) There are fences that restrict beach access to guests only. All guests will receive detailed driving directions prior to arrival.

Beautiful condo, perfect location!

My daughter and I stayed here for a short 2 nights in March. The condo was perfect for us and the view was outstanding! We loved being able to walk down to the beach from our patio. They thought of everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and will stay again!

Awesome birthday beach trip

We stayed at the floor condo at Seamist for a joint birthday celebration and it is did it not disappoint. Steps away from water and what a view! Condo is super clean, cute, and bed very comfortable. It was a very quiet and peaceful. Sometimes we were only ones on beach. Lovely condo and area.

Great vacay!

This rental was great! Being on the first floor made trekking up and down from the beach so easy! The house was well stocked, clean, and the beds were comfy!! Beach was private, which was great but people would walk down from the public beach looking for space. Recommend putting your chairs down when you wake up! Lots of great memories made!

Perfect Location

The views from the unit are amazing, steps away from the beach. The condo was clean, extremely comfortable for the two of us. Both the beds and pillows are very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again. Jessica was there for us if we needed anything, and helped with one small issue we had. Thank you

Beautiful location

The condo looked like the pictures. The location is wonderful! The shower curtain eas moldy, but the owners were quick to respond to resolve that issue. We also noticed several dlats were missing off of the blinds, which wasn't a big deal to us. The last day, when we went to use the dishwasher for the 1st time, there were dirty dishes left from whoever was there before. We didn't notify because we were leaving, we just started it up. There were plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. We loved the balcony, outdoor shower, and decor. The kids loved the giant dolphin and sea turtle pillows on the bunk beds. We would definitely stay again!

This property had a beach view porch and was right on the beach. We had lounge chairs and spent a major amount of our trip on the porch or on the beach.

Amazing view but…

We enjoyed the view and location of the property. I had to report black mold in the dishwasher, sand pile on the porch, abroken screen-door and missing blind pieces. I was asked to clean the mold with bleach myself. We had to rearrange blind pieces ourselves since it was viewing everything from outside at night.

Can’t wait to go back!

Amazing property directly on the beach. Waking up and enjoying coffee and a book on the patio was one of my favorite parts. Everything we needed was available and Jessica was a fabulous communicator. Will be booking again as soon as dates come out for school breaks. Lovely vacation.

Great Stay

The good: Perfect spot on the beach, the steps down to the beach straight off of the patio are a rare thing, owner was communicative and helpful, bikeable to all of 30A, comfy a/c, easy access to place, good parking. Drawbacks: Not walkable to many places (but bikeable), patio sliding door needs better locking method (won't go into detail in case this review is made public). Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to friends.

We loved being able to walk straight out to the beach. It was so easy to come back in for food or breaks or when a small storm passed through. We had all that we needed to be comfortable and enjoyed the beach not being too crowded.

Quick Getaway

We stayed 2 nights here, and really enjoyed our time. The beachy/sea life decor was cute, the rooms were cozy with lots of pillows, but what we loved most was how close we were to the beach. For the price, it was worth it to us, we would stay here again. Sadly, there was a lot of trash under the boardwalk stairs down to the beach area. We picked up the trash that we could reach to help clean it up a little. We loved Raw & Juicy which is just down the road in the Alys Beach district. We also ate at George's which was good, and Shades which was ok.

Perfect condo for my family

This condo was perfect for my family of 4. Clean, updated, perfect location, easy access to the beach and the TVs had Netflix and disney+ (perfect for my fam). Communication with the owners was great, easy to get a hold of and responsive to any issues. And the beach was beautiful! We will be back.
