Amazing Porches, Steps From Seaside, FL Beach! One Story - Key Lime

1 King, 2 queens, 1 bunk room (4 twins, sleeps four) sleeps 10

Welcome to ‘Key Lime.’ This iconic Seaside, Florida, single-story beach cottage with wrap-around porches and operable shutters closely follows traditional, vernacular cottages built generations ago in waterfront towns along the Panhandle! Freshly renovated and featured in Seaside Style, Key Lime is located midway between the beach and the West Side Pool, on the footpath to the town center, and has access to the private Odessa Street Beach Pavilion.

The shaded side yard deck with generous amounts of Adirondack seating, a grill, and outdoor string lighting maximizes your outdoor living experience. Step through double mahogany screen doors and into a deep front and side porch and the magic of this house unfolds. A tastefully decorated interior offers a continuous living room that features a 55" Smart TV and dining space at the center of the house, with soaring ceiling and cypress beams to give an open coastal cottage feel. Two sets of custom mahogany French doors in the living room swing out to the porches to savor the outdoors. V-groove wood walls and ceilings and maple wood floors are throughout the house, and an antique chandelier brings a bit of old world to the central dining area. A charming, well-equipped kitchen is tucked just off the living room that features a separate ice maker.

Key Lime features four bedrooms, arranged into three suites that anchor the corners of the home. At the front of the residence, guests can locate a queen bedroom with a full bath, as well as direct access to the front porch. At the back of the house, a primary suite features a king-size bed, double closets, and a double vanity with a walk-in shower. The primary suite opens to both the front and back porch. On the other back corner, a family suite features a full bath with a tub shower combo, a bunk room with four beds and a queen bedroom with an additional half bath. This layout was designed with our guests' convenience in mind, as one can walk through the bunk room to access the queen bedroom or enter directly from the back porch.

The heart of the house is the deep screen porch that wraps around the front and side of the house accommodating a mahogany table with seating for 8. Plantation chairs and vintage rattan furniture complete this screened area for relaxing with a glass of wine or a morning cup of coffee. An equally deep porch with a bed swing at the rear of the house affords the primary bedroom and rear queen bedroom a quiet private outdoor retreat.

Additional amenities: Charcoal Grill, 2 adult bikes, private outdoor shower, washer/dryer, and a manicured yard with al-fresco dining. The fireplace is decorative only.

The screened porch is perfectly designed with a long table for outdoor dining and a seating area with a game table. Really comfortable. I loved that the home is all on one level - perfect for children. Super cute bunkroom!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolutely Amazing! The house was very nice and spacious with all the amenities anyone could ask for. The screened in porch was amazing for morning coffee and evening cocktails with friends & family. Only a few short steps to the beach and a short walk to the main square for eating & shopping we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommended to everyone

Beautiful home. Great location.

This cottage was amazing. It worked perfectly for my husband and I, our teenage kids and their friends. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and in a prime location to all that seaside has to offer. Access to the beach and pool was super close and convenient . I would highly recommend this property and would return in a heartbeat.

Key Lime

We had a great week at Key Lime. There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room. We have been to Seaside numerous times and this has been our favorite place to stay! Clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We loved the front porch and outdoor areas. The teenagers loved the bunk room. We will definitely be back!

Key Lime and Family Memories

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: Key Lime is the perfect family cottage. Bedrooms are privately situated with the family room, kitchen and wonderful screened in porch the center of the house. Everything was ready for us to enjoy Seaside from the moment we arrived. Our family included 6 adults and 2 children and Key Lime provided perfect spaces for each of us to be together and yet have areas when quiet time was needed. The property management company agents were also very helpful and responded immediately when we needed a replacement coffee machine and even helped with a forgotten issue after we checked out. Overall our vacation at Key Lime was a wonderful , relaxing and unforgettable family experience.

Key Lime Revisit

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was 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: Key Lime was a family favorite when our grandsons made their first trips to Seaside and this trip for the now grown up teenagers did not disappoint. Walks to the beach and town are short and quick and the addition of the bunk room is an A plus. The front porch, once again, became a favorite spot for evening conversations and bringing previous visits to the forefront. It was a lot of fun.

Perfect Location Between the Pool and the Beach

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: Key Lime is very centrally located between the outdoor pool and the beach, so it was easy to let the kids roam on their own a little, even though they’re younger. We had nine people in our group and the house felt spacious with plenty of beds to sleep in for all of us. The only thing I would change is to make the steps on the ladder of the bunk beds wider. It’s not easy getting up or down from the top bunks, even for kids. Other than that, we loved our stay at Key Lime and would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Great Home + Location- A few Items Needed

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: Overall- great home and great location. We booked this home because it was the last one available in Seaside for the dates needed. The home was nice, well kept, close to beach and had almost everything one would need. For the price, one would think minimal beach gear would be included. There were a couple moldy beach chairs in the back that were possibly left from other renters, but we had to rent all of our beach gear. Additionally, it would have been nice to find a high chair and pack n play in one of the closets to accommodate young ones. All the rooms were very nice and equipped with everything needed. The porch room was hot and didn’t like having to walk through another room to get to it. The large porch and access to beach set the home apart for sure!

Great location but could use some cleaning.

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: Key Lime is in a great location close to the beach and west side pool. It accommodated our family of ten but there were two major drawbacks:The back two bedrooms were extremely cold. They must not be insulated properly. This cottage should not be rented in the colder months until it is fixed. I had to sleep with four blankets.The floors were dirty. We have found this to be a universal problem at Seaside. We rent houses at Seaside almost every summer and at New year’s. For the past few years the floors have been filthy, with the soles of our feet blackened with dirt shortly after arrival.We have been renting at Seaside for over thirty years and I didn’t recall this being a problem until the past few years. Maybe coincides with the invention of the Swiffer. Swishing dirt around a floor does not clean it. Hot water, a good mop and a cleaner made for wooden floors may seem old-fashioned but it works.
