Location, Location
We have been traveling to 30A area for over 25 years, and this was one of the best locations we've ever stayed. We loved how the house is nestled between the dunes of the state park areas. Simply beautiful! The large porch area easily accommodated our large group of 12, and the views were amazing. We also loved all being able to fit at the large dining table. The owner was great to work with and was quick to respond to any questions. The beach service was wonderful, and the beach was not overly crowded. We truly enjoyed our time at Seas the Day, and would love to visit again in the future.

Family Vacation
Perfect location and house for our family vacation. House was very spacious and allowed for each family to have plenty of privacy. Plenty of seating in dining area and family room. Outside living area was incredible and we spent every morning enjoying the views. House was well stocked with everything needed. I know it Host was gracious and answered all our questions. Hope to book again next year!

We have been seized by Seas the Day
For decades, our group of 13 women have enjoyed Grayton Beach and, especially, Seas the Day, for our annual get-together. The house has many areas, inside and out, that permit our entire group to enjoy each other's company in sun and in shade, as well as a dining area that permits all of us to sit at the same table. The spacious kitchen allows 3+ chefs to work together and the "drinks specialist" to prepare and pour libations. Lastly, somehow Seas the Day provided vivid blue skies and gulf breezes for the entire week, with rain showers occurring only after dark. We are looking forward to our return in 2025!

Family Weekend
Property was perfect for 5 adult couples and 1 toddler. Beach access couldn’t have been better. Found the house to have great sound proofing as with so many people you should have heard more noise. Kitchen well equipped with pots, pans, glasses, silverware etc. Stove top a little odd in that 2 burners on one side of an extremely large sink and 2 on other side. That was a little inconvenient. Owner quick to respond and answers all questions. All in all we would come back to same house. Thank you.

Amazing location!!
Perfect spot for our annual family beach vacation! We loved the outdoor spaces and the kitchen! The proximity to the beach/ ocean was fantastic and felt very secluded. The kids/dads caught 9 pompano fish, casting from the beach out front.. a dream for them!! Added bonuses were the beach toys and chair/ umbrella setups!! We loved it all!!

Spring break
We had multiple families for spring break with kids ranging in age from 15 - 18 years old. The kitchen is well accommodated and the view is breathtaking! Living on the ocean for a week was incredible. They had beach chair service everyday. Grayton Beach is a fantastic little town which was gratefully less crowded then Seaside. I would go back again!

Perfect Thanksgiving
Seas the Day may just be our favorite spot after spending over 25 years of celebrating Thanksgiving on 30A. The open floor plan and breathtaking ocean views were a perfect home base for our week-long family get together. Other family members rented houses nearby and Seas the Day was an ideal location for gathering together throughout the week. The house had everything we needed for cooking and dining, conversation, games, puzzles, and art, and even infant and toddler play. We had a couple of questions for Kara during the week and she responded immediately. Unlike many of the surrounding beaches, the beach was uncrowded and peaceful and so easy to access! Thank you for wonderful memories!

Best Beach House for Families
We absolutely LOVED this house!!! The location was just perfect for our family. The house was beautifully decorated and had the most well stocked kitchen!!! We had everything we needed right there. We will most certainly rebook as soon as we get dates for our family to return. You could tell that the owners took every convenience needed at the beach in account when seeing this house up. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous home❤️❤️

A 10/10 🏠 Home!!
We took our immediate family ( 6 of us) , our 7month old granddaughter and my mom. My aunt and uncle came for a few days too. We rented an electric beach wheelchair for my mom - that made all the difference and she had the time of her life. This home is wonderful! Having so many balconies was a treat. We also didn’t realize we would have beach service daily !! That was fantastic! Kara ( homeowner) was quick to respond to any questions I had. I loved this home and so did my family !

Great Week at Grayton Beach
We had a total of 13 which included 5 kids under 4 years old. The house was updated, layout was perfect for us. Large family kitchen was well designed and became the gathering spot in the house. The beach chair guys showed up every morning and set up 8 chairs and 4 umbrellas by the water. There's a Publix about 2 miles from the house that is pretty new which had a section full of beach toys. Overall great house at a great location we would definitely rent the house again!

Great Beach Vacation
This was our 4th or 5th time to stay here and each gets better. Location and house are perfect for our family and owner has upgraded house through the years. Beach was closed a couple of days due to dangerous undertow but lots to do in area. Beach chair set up each day was a nice benefit. We hope to return again.

This is the best beach house we have ever stayed at. Fit a family of 10 adults and 3 infants/toddlers very well. We loved the 3 decks and how close you are to the beach. Also the privacy of the beach is nice.

We loved Seas the Day!
We picked this house for the # of bedrooms and the beach access. They had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well appointed, there were kids books/toys, plenty of bath towels, etc. The beach service made it so easy to enjoy the beach. The beds were very comfortable and we are super picky about that! Everything about this rental was perfect except the grill was left very dirty from a previous renter. We would absolutely rent here again!

Great location.
This rental is in a fabulous location. It is a bit worn as are some rentals. People before us pretty much trashed the property. Housekeepers were wonderful but came in late due to another housekeeper canceling so not exceptionally clean due to lack of time to clean. Don’t think this is the norm. Furniture covers and rugs need to be replaced. We are going back next year. Property owner is very good!

Wonderful place
We were eight adults and three children. This was by far the best place we have stayed on the panhandle. The house was large enough to give everyone their own space. This was our first stay on Grayton beach and we will be back. The kids loved the bunk room. The kitchen was well stocked and large enough to accommodate all of us.

Perfect location and house. Right on a fairly secluded beach area but walking distance to coffee shop & some restaurants. Room for all to gather in kitchen living room, dining room or on porches, but still privacy for 10 adults if wanted. Everyone asked when are we going back!

About the host

Hosted by Kara Plaster

Host profile image
We are from Tulsa Oklahoma and purchased the home after searching for a private beach community that is family friendly. We love the proximity to the restaurants that 30a has to offer without the beach crowds during the day. We have a large family and found many houses didn't quite accommodate our family. We bought this home and rent it to families like ours.

Why they chose this property

This is a unique property that is situated in the middle of the Grayton Beach State Park. This stretch of beach remains uncrowded even at the peak of summer.
