Overall had an amazing experience at Seamist #8. Finding a rental with everything you’re looking for in 30A is not easy but I am so glad I stumbled upon this one. The condo was actually nicer in person than in the pictures! The decor style was amazing and couldn’t ask for a better location. Perfectly enough away from the chaos of Seaside traffic, but still within a bikes ride away from everything and in the middle between Alys Beach and Rosemary. The property management company was extremely easy, professional, and quick to respond. The only feedback we have is that the master bedroom headboard (rattan material) is a little noisy due to material, and squeaked with any toss or turn in the night. WiFi went down on our last night and the location is a cell phone dead zone so we couldn’t make any calls unless we walked up to the street from the condo.

We had a wonderful vacation in this seamist condo, and it was more than perfect for our little family. The kids loved the bunks and the new bed was very comfy for me and my husband.

We have stayed at on if these units maybe 18 to 20 times over the last 25 years. We like staying there.

Our favorite place to come! Perfect location and beautiful condo!

The condo was a great location, and the rental experience was very easy. The decor was nice. There were no cushions on the outdoor furniture for the first couple of days maintenance showed up to bring them later. The towels in this particular Condo were wonderful. Make sure to bring Anything else you might need (salt, pepper, olive oil, absolutely everything you would need to make a meal). Even bring plastic utensils as there are only a few forks, knives, spoons.

The location is great, we’d still stay again

Definitely will come back to this location. It was in the perfect spot and had an amazing view. We stayed for our 10 year anniversary and I loved being able to walk right onto the beach and to sit on the back porch to see the ocean. Since it's a private beach, it isn't as busy which is nice. Definitely would recommend this location. It was clean, had plenty of towels/everything we needed, and the customer service was great.

Perfect spot, great furnishings and amazing view

Beautiful condo on a beautiful private beach. We love it here.

Beautiful condo on a beautiful private beach. We love it here.

This unit is perfectly located on the beach and close to restaurants and surrounding area shopping. The unit was very clean. Highly recommend!

This condo was beautiful with gorgeous beachfront views. It was very clean and tidy upon arrival.
We only have one suggestion: a new mattress for the master bedroom, it has a dip in the middle making a little uncomfortable. Other than that the condo was just perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay !!

My wife and I stayed for a week while our kids were at summer camp. The location and view are 10/10 and 30A is simply amazing (this was our first trip there). We worked from the unit, and the wifi was strong enough for video calls. The kitchen was adequately supplied with cooking equipment, as well. We HIGHLY recommend this unit and it was overall a good value. Also GREAT restaurants in both directions :)

***General readers can stop here***

Now some very minor feedback for property mgmt: need better window treatment in the bedroom bc of the very bright stair lights (we hung up a sheet which helped); two rolls of tp is NOT sufficient for a week stay and it's very annoying to have to buy a 4-pk ourselves just in case we run out for a rental of this caliber; please also stock the unit with salt and pepper, which are basic and fairly standard -- even disposable packs by the coffee maker would be fine!

Quaint, quiet and beautiful. Just what we needed. Absolutely wonderful!!

This property was ideal for our abbreviated stay on 30A. We loved the central location- minutes to the Hub or Alys beach/Rosemary. The unit was quite clean and had just what we needed to relax. We’d start our day with morning walks on the beach followed by coffee on the patio. During the day, we didn’t have to fight any crowds to enjoy the beach. So private and nice!

Wonderful stay at Seamist. It was the perfect size for a getaway for 2 and the location was great. We had everything we needed and all of the information was available in the app or by text. The only downside to the condo was the couch. The cushions are definitely worn and did not provide a lot of support. Overall I would stay here again!

VERY PLEASANT

This is our second stay at Seamist. We have loved it both times. It is the perfect size for our family of 4. The views from the balcony are of the beautiful blue waters. It is an easy walk over the dune to the white sand beaches. We used Dillions Beach Service for chair set up daily. There were plenty of towels for everyone and bedding. We love it here. We really enjoyed the two bikes that were included in the tents.

Would visit again. Great location, clean condo, large balcony shaded all day! We enjoyed the view from the balcony as much as being under the beach umbrellas because of the condo’s short distance from the water. Condo could maybe update their washer/dryer but the decor is very pleasing being all neutral colors. Enjoyed our stay!

Perfect spot to spend a long weekend on the beach with my 2 young boys. Loved the access directly to the beach. Will definitely be back!

The pictures are accurate. The apartment was clean, and we enjoyed our time there. Easy access to the beach, and a nice balcony to enjoy the view. We would stay here again.

We had an amazing time at Seamist and this is by far the nicest one we've stayed in of the 5 or so we've rented in the building. It's a little bit more but well worth it. 30A Luxury was a dream to work with and they really go above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. We can't wait to come back!!

I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. This property is actually nicer than it appears in photos which is unusual. The property appears to have been professionally decorated. The view from the patio is absolutely amazing! The property was very clean. The bed and pillows were comfy. I love the location and have stayed in another condo in the building previously. The bikes were located to the side of the stairway as described. And very importantly, check-in was simple! I have only good things to say and plan to stay here again.

Property was as described in clean and well-maintained condition. Location was was within walking, biking, or short car ride of shops & restaurants. 2 Bikes provided with the rental was a nice perk. Management responded quickly to put air in tires-we had no other issues. Would highly recommend. We do live local and will try to return during off-season rates.

We really enjoyed staying at this unit.The unit was clean and ready upon our arrival.We loved the big balcony with the cushioned chairs with a great view of the ocean. It was so convenient to the beach.I wish this unit had a 2nd bathroom but other than that I would definitely recommend this unit!

We'd absolutely stay here again. Everything about it was great. Huge balcony was a really nice. That is something most one bedroom condos along 30A do not have on this big. Covered as well!

The condo was in great condition, had everything we needed! Furniture comfortable, great balcony. To get down to the beach, there are quite a bit of stairs, not feasible especially for those those that are disabled or are not physically adept. Great location, felt very safe, would love to stay here again. Washer and dryers were super helpful to have so handy in the condo for the stay.

Perfect stay for a couple or small family. Looks just like pictures. Clean, comfy and GORGEOUS views. Couldn’t stop staring, even saw dolphins while we drank coffee on the deck.

Location is great, short walk to the beach. Condo was smaller than expected inside and had some things (couch/appliances) that were reaching their life expectancy but not a huge deal for our family. Just something to consider if that’s more important for you. We spent vast majority of time on the beach so it wasn’t a big deal for us. Best fits a family of 4, or less. Pullout couch is nice addition but with it out there is no room left in the living room so keep that in mind.

Location and view were incredible. Unit was very clean, but is ready for some freshening. Easy to look past that due to value for location though. We would for sure stay here again.

The unit was clean and quiet. The patio was amazing to be able to sit out on with morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening and see and hear the ocean. Relatively short and manageable walk to the beach. The unit is on the second level so you do have to maneuver stairs with bags / luggage was not an issue for me personally but just need to be prepared if you have larger or heavier items and don’t have another adult to help you carry. Was a little worried about the 5pm check in time and stance on that being a starting point but got a proactive text around 2pm on day of check in letting me know the property was ready and that I could go ahead and check in!

Seamist was a great condo right on the beach! Easy access to wake up and go get your chairs & umbrellas set up for enjoying a relaxing day on the water. Great balcony to enjoy your morning coffee while looking out at the waves. Convenient location to lots of great restaurants and bike trails & really nice that the rental included 2 bikes. Super cute condo for our family of 4 to enjoy our beach vacation!

We had a great experience. Perfect size for my husband and I. We would have loved a king size bed as the queen was a bit small for us and very uncomfortable. I also had wished there was a full length mirror. There were a couple holes in the wall. One behind the door handle. Looks like they need a door stopper put on the wall to prevent that. And then above and to the right of the patio door. Not sure why that was cut out from the drywall but it was an eyesore. I also tripped stepping out of the house onto the patio. It’s a large step down which I wasn’t expecting. It does have amazing views. The beach was a little crowded but that was to be expected since it was July.

Really nice place the check in time was jus late and check out was early that was the only thing I could complain about.

We enjoyed our stay in this condo!! It was the perfect getaway weekend. We did not love the 9 o’clock check out time because I have a hard time thinking it would take that long to clean this condo (even with Covid). It left us with an hour to do nothing before any shops opened at 10. For people that fly to the area to vacation just just presents a challenge. But....

This was our second year back in same unit. You just can't beat the location. The view and short walk to beach are great! We will return again next year.

Our stay at Seamist was amazing. We enjoyed the beautiful view, clean accommodations, and accessibility to local shops, restaurants, and the beach.

The unit is located right on the beach! Easy gate access with 20 or so steps down to the sand. It was pretty clean! We felt good about the unit itself. It worked out well for my family of four. The bed situation is less than ideal. The master bedroom mattress was comfortable, but didn’t feel like a queen. I’m sure it was, it just didn’t feel like it. The two bunks are small. If you have kids over 5 feet tall, it most likely won’t work. Our oldest ended up on the couch. If you have loud neighbors it can be tough to get good rest. The master bedroom is located at the front of the unit (which is right by the stairs). The house next door to the complex has outdoor speakers and a pool, so if they decide to be annoying, they can do it with ease. This was an issue for us every night while we were there. That pool is also right by the master bedroom. It was an easy drive to Rosemary Beach for ice cream and shopping and the Hub for dinner. Publix is a few miles away, which is not a bad drive if you need anything you left at home. Overall, the unit was clean, the pictures matched up, the beach was steps away, but the neighbors were loud, beds were small, which led to little rest and relaxation.

We can't thank 30A Luxury Vacations enough for a great stay! They were so helpful and accommodating and we look forward to returning soon. The condo was as clean as I could ask for and everything was thought of.

We booked this a while ago and were very pleasantly surprised to find out it had been remodeled. They did an amazing job and we even ask the management company who did it and went shopping at the designer's store! (Tracery Interiors) The management company was so great to work with and we can't wait to come back again!!

This place was awesome!!! Great location!
Condo was perfect in every way!

Wonderful location which is located on the beach. Condo was clean and newly remodeled. I loved everything about it. Will be booking again next year.

We had a wonderful stay at Seamist #8. The interior which had just been redone was beautiful and the space was perfect with an incredible view of the beach. When standing in the kitchen, you felt like you were on a cruise ship looking out at the ocean. The covered deck was spacious with beautiful, comfy and sturdy new furniture. Comfy chairs for reading or enjoying your morning coffee plus a very nice table and chairs.

We enjoyed the Seacrest area! It was quiet but just a short bike ride to Alys beach and Rosemary! All in all it was the perfect location and condo!!

We had a lovely time at the Seamist. We have never stayed in this particular area of the beach. It is the perfect location! The beach was never crowded. We especially enjoyed the bicycles available to us. We spent our mornings riding to either nearby Rosemary beach or Watersound. The condo has a spacious deck. It had everything we needed and very clean with what seemed to be brand new furnishings that were quite beautiful. My only request would be to please have a broom available. After a day at the beach, it is almost impossible to not bring some in with you. Overall we had a wonderful time and look forward to our next visit!

What a fantastic location and place to stay at and enjoy the beach. The stay here was easy and above expectations! Will stay here again

I have stayed at Seamist #8 five or six times now and I keep coming back because of the great location right on the beach. It’s.a quiet section of 30A and the beach is never crowded. Now about the condo. It has been totally redone from top to bottom with new floors, furnishing and decor and it looks so clean and beachy. I know this may be a little thing but I love their towels (plentiful, oversized and thick). Also having a washer/dryer in-condo is a definite plus. Every interaction with the management office was very friendly and they always offer to address any concerns right away (I had very few). There was no place for luggage in the bedroom but I realize the remodel may not have been complete at the time of my visit. The bunk beds in the hall were a worthy substitute. The kitchen was well equipped with everything I needed but be aware they do not keep non-perishable spices or condiments in-house. Stock up at the grocery. One thing I liked was the app that gives all kinds of info and is updated during your stay with check-in and check-out information to help you remember.
All in all I definitely recommend this condo or I wouldn’t keep coming back. It’s just a good place to kick back, relax and enjoy the views.

The location directly on the beach between Seaside & Rosemary Beach is absolutely perfect... close enough to town for dinner & shopping, but still slightly secluded for a lower number of people on the beach. Property looks older but been has been maintained pretty well and everything was in working order. From reading prior reviews, I was concerned about the construction going on next door but it wasn't too disruptive as they were mostly down to interior finishing. Also from reading prior reviews, I was prepared for a couple of warped deck boards and a warm, slightly cramped bedroom. Not properly prepared for the number of stairs with free cardio workout! Condo is on 2nd floor with no elevator and beach is 3 flights of stairs down from the backyard. Going down no problem, coming up a little more challenging carrying too much beach stuff up all the stairs. I suggest a soft side cooler instead of big heavy cooler. They do have beach chairs and some toys in the condo, but after 2 days of carrying stuff up the stairs at the end of the day we just called Dillon's Beach Service for umbrella, table & much more comfy chairs. They were awesome and had us set up very early in the morning directly out from the stairs. That fabulous view from the deck & seeing dolphins almost every day more than make up for the number of steps! Overall it was a great vacation and there was nothing that would stop me from staying here again!!!

Perfect location! Beach view is outstanding! The condo was very clean and great size for our anniversary weekend getaway!

We couldn’t have asked for a better location! Literally steps from the beach. The ere were a couple of beach chairs and rafts, possibly left from others who had stayed before us. The bed in the master was very comfortable and our kids said the bunk beds were also. I would definitely rent this condo again!

I had a FANTASTIC stay @ SeaMist once again.. Everything was in IMMACULATE condition and the view is ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING.. My ONLY complaint was the construction of the home right next to my unit.. I stayed in Unit 8 from Thurs.-Sun. and that construction crew was there working on that house waaaaaaaaayyyy to early in the morning to be on vacation.. ALL THE HAMMERING & WORKING going on was ALOT but my fiancée and I made the best of it & still enjoyed our stay regardless!!
SEAMIST IS THE GREATEST!!

Condo could use some freshening up. As with most by the sea places things rust quickly. Table on balcony is extremely rusty. Some minor paint peeling and rust inside condo. However, condo was very clean, company was great to work with and the view was fantastic. Stairs were a little scary down to the beach, but beach was cleaner than most that I have seen. My biggest complaint was that for our entire stay there was very loud construction next door. 7:20-5 each day.

My wife and I and two kids came down for an impromptu long weekend. Weather could not have been better and the views were great from this second floor unit. Seamist is an older complex, but fairly well maintained. The best part about the condo is that it’s direct gulf front and very short distance to get from the condo down to the beach. This area is mostly houses or smaller complexes, so the beach was not crowded. We saw lots of stars on the beach for the first time ever, which was memorable.. The kids, 5 and 7, enjoyed the built in bunk beds. The condo came with plenty of towels and 2 free bike rentals. The kitchen was well stocked and appliances were nice and clean. The rental company is very professional and communication with them through text was easy. As I stated, this is an older condo, so there are several parts that are dated and could be updated. But for the price, relative to what other similar condos rent for, I felt like this condo was a good value and i wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

The weather was wonderful, folks near us were very pleasant, the unit was very comfortable. We had a great time! Lots of R & R and Sunshine, just what we needed.

Perfect place for my wife and me. Convenient to restaurants, shopping etc. We loved being steps to the beach and enjoyed the sunset view and sounds of the water from our balcony. We had a perfect weekend together.

We really enjoyed our stay at the property. Location is fantastic just steps from the beach. Rental company arranged everything and unit had all the nessesities. Kids were impressed by the water toys inside the unit. A+

We had a great vacation overall. The location of this rental property was great...very close distance to all of the shops and restaurants at Aly's and Rosemary Beach and many others. It is centrally located between all of the small beach towns. The view from this condo is spectacular and literally on the beach...just walk down a couple flights of steps and you are on the sand.
This particular unit ended up being just too small and uncomfortable for our family of 4 though. Myself and husband and two teenage daughters found the accommodations lacking in comfort...more "comfy" seating in the living room and kitchen would have been appreciated. Would have liked some "carpet" to make it more comfortable as well. The deck needs a little work as a couple floor boards are bulging, but the view makes up for that. The master bed only has a queen size bed, so make note of that if you are used to sleeping on a king and there isn't much room to move around. The 1 bathroom doesn't have any counter space to put your toiletries, but they do have some little cubbies in the hall that helps. Also, there aren't any usable mirrors in the home except for the bathroom mirror and seems to be a lack of unused electrical outlets. So when you have 3 ladies "getting ready" for the night out, it can be difficult.
All of that can be completely looked over by other guests, these were just important things to us.
Lastly, but most importantly, was that the management company did everything they could to take care of us. Our shower was clogged the first time we took a shower, we called 30a Luxury Vacations, and they had someone at our unit within 20 minutes and the problem was fixed with no issues the rest of the trip. We also called about 1/2 way through our stay indicating that the queen size mattress was just too small for my husband of 6'4" but the pull out sofa sleeper was so uncomfortable as well and within a few hours, they delivered a brand new foam mattress topper to o

Enjoyed my stay here. Liked that it was away from main tourist attractions, but close enough to enjoy local restaurants. Very quiet and was supplied with things you would need in the kitchen to feel as if you were home.

Everything was great. Try the Pubcycle at Grayton beach so much fun.
Location is perfect would be a little cramped for 6 adults .
Will definitely be returning.

This condo was perfect for my trip. My boyfriend and I wanted to stay on the water at an affordable price. The views were amazing. It was only a short bike ride to Alys and Rosemary. The condo had everything we needed and was so close to the water. I would definitely recommend this condo.

I have stayed at Seamist Condos on the beach several times and it has always been a quiet and relaxing time. The location is away from the 'hustle' of Seaside but close enough to all the shopping and dining areas on 30A. The condos have been well equipped with everything I need and I have learned that I can pack a little lighter as a result. The layout is perfect for 1 or 2 people. I know it sleeps more but the main living area may get a little cramped with 4 or more. My only request would be a broom and dustpan. I may have missed it but it would have been good to sweep away sand that I tracked in coming from the beach. The app makes it very easy for check in and check out as it has all necessary information. Due to bad weather one night my cable and internet went out (9:00 p.m.). I sent a text to the main phone number just to get on the list for the morning and Chris immediately responded and said he'd make the necessary calls to the cable company. He got back to me with answers and all was back up by midnight. That's good customer service. My favorite restaurants were Bud & Alley's as well as Shrimp Shack in Seaside. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting some undisturbed beach time.

We were looking for a relaxing family vacation and that's exactly what we got! From the moment we stepped onto the balcony and saw that incredible view, I knew we'd be return guest. Now about the unit, the three of us fit perfectly, I think six would be tight. The main bedroom was quiet and comfortable. Shower had great water pressure and the extra toiletries were a nice touch. The kitchen is stocked with all your basic needs for cooking your own meals to eat on the balcony. The sofa itself was comfortable to sit on, the fold out bed however was horribly uncomfortable, you could feel the center bar across your back.
Our teen child LOVED the bunk area though! All in all this was an amazing stay!

We very much enjoyed our vacation rental. Nice and clean and just big enough for two people!

Our family of six absolutely loved this condo. Awesome view, very clean and updated, great location between Seaside and Rosemary.One of our best stays ever in this area. We will definitely try to stay at Seamist again.

Very nice love the beach, People up above us little noisey

This unit is a little dated, but it was clean and very functional... It was very close to the beach, but the pictures look as though you are staying on the ground level, but this unit is on the second level of three... The management company had very easy check in over the phone with a hassle free door combination to enter the property... The location was quiet with the exception of the tenants in the upstairs unit which where noisy the last couple of days of the stay (this is not a single until, but a condo in a small 3 level complex)... The unit sleeps 6.. it's a 1 BR/1BA unit... a queen bed, a set of built in bunk beds and a pull out sleeper... pretty tight for six, but it works... The walk to the beach is less than a minute... probably the best deal in this area considering the proximity to the beach...

Seamist is a great condo for relaxing and winding down. Easy walk to the beach.

Our rental was clean. Everything worked. The view was spectacular. What you see on line is what you get. Highly recommend this property. The only problem we had was no cell phone service in the room. We could go out to the parking lot and our bars would pop up, but in the unit itself, nothing. I have AT&T and my friend has Sprint. Could get nothing from either. But we didn't really care. We weren't there to talk on the phone. Loved it anyway. Would stay again even without call service.

Really great place for just two. We enjoyed our stay. The view of the beach was wonderful and we road the bikes each day. Only request is that the drains be checked in the bathroom. Very slow to drain. Alos, one board loose on the railing. Other than that, great!

Wonderful except for the dog downstairs barking at night while owners were away.

My wife and I found this place a few years back, and the Seamist 8 was the first unit we stayed in. This particular unit has recently been given a face lift with some new furniture. I've stayed in many 5 stable places along 30a...This place has the best beach access and views with the fewest obstacles. Love Seamist, and we will be going back.

If you are like me and when you go to the beach you actually want to be on the beach and look at this fabulous view every day; this is your place. The unit was a great size for our party of three. The furniture looks new and the washer and dryer are great to have. Two bicycles are included in the rental which is very convenient. Easy to bike to Alys beach and Rosemary Beach. Make sure and make it to the Farmers Market in Rosemary Beach on Mondays and Thursdays. There is a vendor that sells Tomato pies that are delicious!

Great spot on the beach. Nice unit, good condition with the exception of balcony furniture--table and chairs are rusted and it gets on your clothes and towels. Would be better enjoyed with a couple of chairs on balcony. I would gladly come and wire brush and paint balcony furniture in exchange for a weekend stay.

good. nice location. 30A was in contact often to check on our accommodations/ stay.

We love this little condo. It has everything family of 4 needs. If you have small kids two more could sleep in hollway bunk beds. They need to upgrade patio seating furniture , it's rusted and stained few of our clothing items. It's great location if you wanna be on the beach, biking is great going toward Rosemary and Ally's beach.

Management was excellent. We loved the condo and location. Will definitely rent from this company again. The condo was very clean and the view was spectacular. The only minor downer was that the porch furniture was rusted.
