Sea Rest = relaxation and a little excitement
Plenty of space in the bedrooms and bathrooms with nice spacious sectional in the living room and a dining area to fit all 10 of us. Great porch furniture in the front and screened in back. Kitchen was a little tight but the stand alone ice maker was a favorite of everyone. There is now a quicker online check in process for security and to get wristbands that the property manager didn’t have in the emails but that security informed us about when we called on arrival- so much quicker than waiting endlessly like before. The location is right across from tram stop B6 which was very convenient. And now for the exciting part - apparently there is a black bear that now scavenges the area every evening looking for food. He tore apart our garbage twice and we had to clean up the mess. The kids (and adults) found the sightings quite fun - just be on the lookout in the evenings.

Awesome Rental!
We loved our week at Sea Rest! Perfect location on a dead end which was great for the kids to ride their bikes without worrying about all the traffic. Our 12- and 14-year-olds enjoyed the bunk room for their own room, giving them a quiet space to watch tv and hang out. Plenty of room for all 4 families to have own bathroom and space. Short walk to pool or beach. Don't feel like walking that far---there's always the tram! Great communication with Warren Beach Rentals through the whole rental process! Most importantly we felt very safe in our location with 5 kids from 2-14 years old. The pool area is amazing!! I like that there are attendants at the pool on site the entire time. They enforce the rules, all while being kind to the kids and adults. All were very friendly and made you feel like they actually cared about the kids. Would definitely rent this rental again and hope to in the future!!

Perfect for the fall
We enjoyed our stay. Easy check in and everything was very well communicated. Even being in the back of the neighborhood the walks to pool/beach we’re easy for our family. We didn’t utilize trams but they were running in November and ready to transport. The couch is a little small for a house that sleeps 10 and no other seating in living area but it was manageable. Carpet could stand to be replaced. Would stay again.

Loved the location
Not knowing what to expect we were pleasantly surprised with the community. Upon arrival we received our wrist bands for everybody over the age of 11. With those we were able to use the tram service that takes you to the beach and back and the community pool. The bunk room is off the back deck which at first we kind of felt uneasy but it worked out fine. The kids could like themselves into the room and we had a key to it. There should have been a door that went through the purple bathroom into the bunk room. All in all we loved the house, community and everything else that 30A has to offer. We can’t wait to come back

Bunk room cannot access main house at night
We took our adult children on vacation for the week. I can honestly say that we could not have used the bunk room for young children. You exit the main house and enter the bunk room off the screened porch. When doors are locked at night, the occupants of the bunk room are locked out of the main house and you are locked out of their deadbolted room. We did find a key to use, but this wouldn't be an option for young kids. The bedroom carpets and the tub jets were absolutely filthy, but the rest of the house was clean. Area is nice but crowded. The pool was closed for 2 days of our stay, which made the private beach unbearably crowded. It was worth the drive to public access. Overall, a good stay with our family by making the most of what we could control.

Perfect for what we needed
We needed a beach house near our family reunion location to give us enough beds/showers etc for our families. This location had a bathroom off of every single bedroom! It was great! The kitchen was well stocked except an electric can opener is something you might want to bring, but they have mechanical ones. The Washer and Dryer were great. There was a working TV in every bedroom. We only had a problem figuring out how to get the cable turned on on the main TV so that was the only thing that didn’t work. But it wasn’t a big deal at all. There was a beach tram pickup literally across the street. I loved not having to go up and down any stairs and the quiet area of the SeaCrest development. I would most definitely stay here again. Oh, but bring Bicycles if your group likes to ride.

Sea Rest Home
From beginning to end Warren Beach Rentals made our trip so easy and carefree. The home was the cleanest rental we’ve ever experienced. Appliances were all on point especially the dryer which sometimes can take hours to dry all of those towels. The furniture and decor made the few times we were indoors enjoyable. We will definitely rent again!

A true 30A Gem.. Outstanding home.. Impeccable Service
We were so fortunate to find Sea Rest.. This was a perfect cottage for our family. We wanted a one story house and this home was perfect. Room for adults, room for the kids. Private screened in porch of the back, was the restful spot we were looking for. The Warren Beach Rentals staff helped us set up bike rentals through a local provider and made sure we had all of the tram information. We loved the pools and the neighborhood. We probably walked and or biked 10 miles or more per day.. so much fun.. The beds were very comfortable, and just everything about the house was set up for comfort. My wife is a true neatnik, and this house was clean and neat as a pin. Loved our stay, cant wait to return.. You can rent this home with absolute confidence.

Absolutely Spectacular! Could NOT have been more pleased.
What a quaint and cute property, we absolutely loved everything about the cottage. Warren Beach Rentals staff was fantastic and helped us with a minor issue at check in. The house is roomy, well cared for and just a fantastic location. I cannot imagine how anyone would not LOVE to spend their vacation at this home. It is peaceful, clean, and so fun. The entire staff was gracious and kind and every time we called, we got a competent and caring person to help us from anything to where to rent a bike, where to go to the beach, best restaurants and even came over to assist on one minor issue. Fantastic service, fantastic cottage, fantastic location.. Could NOT have been more pleased.

Wonderful beach vacation
This house was everything advertised. We had a great trip. 5 adults and 5 children fit very comfortably. I was worried that the location would not be ideal as the house is in the back of the community. This was actually the perfect spot. Our street was quiet and secluded. It was easy to get to both the pool and the beach. We loved our spot and would stay here again in a heartbeat. Another plus is that the Seacrest community is very kind. On check out day our car battery died. The area's security came to the rescue. We ended up also getting help from an area local and a local builder who happened to stop by. Everyone was so kind. Overall a great stay!!!

Perfect for our family!
The house and community were just perfect for our family/friends vacation! The house is beautiful, comfortable, and nicely decorated, and was very clean. The private bath in each bedroom was a particularly welcome feature. The tram stop just across the street was so convenient for getting to the beach. The kitchen is completely furnished with all cookware, tableware, and utensils we needed to cook a full meal. We also loved the wide front porch (with Adirondack chairs) and the screened porch in the back. The entire place is kid and baby friendly. The house is near the end of the street in a cove so there were no worries about traffic with our little ones. Highly recommend Sea Rest!

I have 4 kids and felt very comfortable staying here. Everyone had their own space. The house is tucked away in the corner of Seacrest so you have access to everything but without being in the middle of it all. The tram makes getting to the beach super easy. Thanks for the memories.

The most beautiful beach area we have ever been to!
Due to COVID-19, last minute we decided to cancel a condo in Panama City Beach and found this house in Seacrest Beach. And it was the biggest blessing in disguise. The area was like something out of a magazine. The Seacrest community was like a movie. We were provided 4 bikes to ride around the area. This was one of our favorite things. We were in such awe of the houses, shops, restaurants and scenery. The house itself served perfectly for our family. Our group consisted of my parents, my husband and our 3 girls (all 6 and under), my sister and my brother. There were plenty of beds, plenty of dining space, and seating on both the front porch and back covered porch. The communication with the rental manager was top notch. They responded promptly and were great to work with. I only have 2 suggestions and 1 minor complaint. My one minor complaint is that the shower head in the back left bedroom bath, and the front hall bath, the shower head is very high and when the water comes out, it sprays in a very large circle. So because of this when standing in the shower, the water seemed to go all around you and not on you. So showering was a little annoying at times. However the other 2 showers were fine. So I would possibly look into changing the shower head to something that is adjustable. The other two suggestions would be bedding. The top blankets reminded me of hospital blankets. This again a very minor thing but since the AC works GREAT, it did get chilly at times and the blankets weren’t much help. Final suggestion, there is a back bedroom off the covered porch with bunk beds. We suggest moving the bunk beds to a room inside. We had 3 little ones that would have loved to sleep on them but because they were technically “outside” the main house, we didn’t let them stay out there. We felt it made more sense to switch the full bed that’s in the front room with the bunk beds. That way, little ones can be in the house and older kids or even a couple can have the outdoor access bedroom. I rated the cleanliness a 4/5 only because we found a lot of trash and dust under the couches and beds. And honestly if we didn’t have little ones we would not have even noticed but since they drop everything, we had to get a couple of toys out from under the couch. But we would absolutely stay here again! We will suggest it to our friends who are lookin for a beach family vacation as well. It was a much needed getaway! So thank you!!!

About the host

Hosted by Soft Shores Vacation Rentals LLC

Host profile image
Soft Shores Vacation Rentals was started in 2017 with one rental in Miramar Beach and has since grown. My wife and I wanted to give people visiting a better experience with their host and with the property they chose to rent. As a local here since 1986, I have had the wonderful opportunity to watch my home grow and flourish into a stunning place for families to make life long memories. We have a passion to serve guests and to create a good experience they can come back to and look forward to.

Why they chose this property

Seacrest is a very cool place where is remains quite but always has something to do. With Rosemary so close and the rest of 30a and its beauty, Seacrest finds its place at a perfect location to enjoy a relaxed spot where you aren't bombarded with cliché tourism venues.

What makes this property unique

Sea Rest house is a place where you feel like it is yours and can fully unwind. Nestled in a quite corner, it makes you want to nap on the porch until it is time to walk to dinner or go for another swim. Sea Rest is a home that you can feel like a friend or family, maybe even that you live here part of the year. You won't feel like a stranger in this home.
