The SeaDation Cottage, located in Santa Rosa Beach, 5 minutes from Seaside and 15 minutes from Destin, is the ideal spot for your next vacation. SeaDation Cottage offers immediate access to the pool which is located directly out the front door and the best views of the ocean in the Old Florida Cottages community. SeaDation Cottage offers the largest decks viewing the ocean from the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors. The total viewing area of the decks is app. 900 sq. ft., more than any other cottage. Most other homes do not even have decks to view the ocean. The front of the cottage offers two covered decks that face the pool. The rear of the house offers three decks that view the beautiful ocean which can also be utilized for getting a tan. In the afternoon, you can observe the sun set in the horizon from the spacious wooden balconies. Three of the four bedrooms have private access to the balconies and decks. The tower area can also be utilized as a sleeping area and it also has private access to the balconies. The tower also has a dry bar which can be utilized to store your favorite drinks and snacks making them readily available from the third floor decks. The tower also has a television with DVD which is enjoyed by both the adults and children.
SeaDation Cottage offers free Unlimited Long Distance Telephone Service, Free High Speed Internet with WIFI, and Free Premium Movie Cable Television Channels for your enjoyment.
SeaDation Cottage is part of the recently completed Old Florida Cottages. Palm trees, lush tropical landscaping, and white-picket fences are but a few of the amenities that will enhance your vacation experience. Best of all, the beautiful Gulf is viewed easily from the second-floor living area and the third-floor tower; general views are available from the first-floor bedrooms. Don't forget the awesome views of the ocean from the decks located outside each floor. Since there are no highways or busy streets to cross, most guests walk to the pristine beach located 200 yards from your front door. The cottage is physically 100 yards from the beach, however, we ask guests not to walk through the other owners property which makes for a 200 yard walk. If you prefer, you can drive your vehicle to the sand dunes and park.
After a day at the beach, The Shops at Gulf Place are just a short stroll away. Gulf Place offers chic boutiques, a summer concert series, and exquisite cuisine offered in a variety of restaurants. Many award winning restaurants are nearby to include the San Destin Outlet Mall which is one of the largest upper scale malls in the region.
This quintessential beach cottage has four bedrooms, three baths, a sleeper sofa in the den, and third floor tower. Large stone tile covers the living area which is vibrantly decorated with new furniture. The cottage features a stereo CD/player, TV/DVD in every bedroom, and ceiling fans. The living area is on the second floor allowing for spectacular views during mealtime and easy access the third floor tower for cocktail hour. SeaDation has five balconies great for viewing the ocean/pool, cooking, entertaining, or relaxing. Breakfast or dinner can be enjoyed on the balconies with wonderful ocean breezes and soft waves in the background. In addition to the personal gas grill located on the second floor balcony, there are two community gas grills steps away from the front door for entertaining large groups. While cooking with the gas grill, you can enjoy great views of the pool and gulf. An outdoor shower is available after your visit to the beach or heated pool. Access to the local bike trails are located 50 yards from the cottages.

SeaDation was a wonderful place. It was perfect for our family (4 adults and 3 children). SeaDation is so close to the beach we were able to walk back and forth with 10 minutes which made it very convenient. The view from the balconies was beautiful. The cottage was very clean and had all the conveniences of home. The community pool and the grounds were very nice and also very clean. The owner was also very easy to communicate with. We would recommend this home to everyone.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

The location of this property is perfect! Close walk to the beach or just hop in the car if you have lots of items to carry. The home was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay. We also enjoyed the pool just steps away from our front door.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

SeaDation Cottage was the perfect place for our "girls" family getaway. It was incredibly roomy. Perfect for children,Great bunkroom on main floor and we were steps from the pool. It was a very easy walk to the Beach for even my young children and my mother who was also with us. Most days we quickly took a car and dropped all of our things at the beach to make it easier because of everything we took to the beach each day; But many of us walked back and forth each day 2-3 minute walk. Great location, close to restaurants and shopping. We are already planning our stay again this year.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

Hi John, SeaDation Cottage was one of the best maintained homes our family of 9 has ever been in. The home offered wonderful beach views from the 2nd and 3rd floors and we are glad you had the bedrooms on the first floor. Your home is so conveniently located to soo many shops, restaurants, and resort clubs. We enjoyed your home soo much, we plan on making this our yearly vacation spot. The flat screen TVs do work great in the home.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Seadation is a wonderful place to stay in SRB. The cottage is very comfortable, well appointed and only a few minutes walk to a quiet beach. We agree with the other reviewers that having the bedrooms on the first floor made great sense as you don't want to waste wonderful sea views from bedrooms - rather, they should be enjoyed from living and group spaces. The small subdivision, "Old Florida Cottages" was also quiet and very nice. In addition to spending time at the beach, we also spent time at the pool which was equally as nice and well maintained. This spot in SRB is also well positioned for quick access to Grayton Beach, Water Color and Seaside attractions while making it easy to return home to a nice quiet house. Wcannot say enough about how wonderful the house is.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

All I can say is WOW! We had the best time of our lives! You home was perfect.......it was clean, accomodating and had all the "beachy weachy" touches to make our stay that much more fun :-D. I really don't understand the earlier review, because we absolutely loved the layout of the home. The ocean views were to die for, and the best part of the day way going to the back deck to watch the sunset with a nice glass of wine. Maybe she hasn't been to many seaside cottages to know that is the typical layout, so you can enjoy the views? We will definitely come back to your cottage, I will just have to remember to book early because I know you fill up quickly! I really want to try visiting in the late Springtime. Don't change a thing. Oh, and I forgot to mention one of the best things about your place..........location, location, location!!!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

This home is very beautiful. We had a large family of 13 and the home accommodated our family just fine. The home is well maintained and had its own brand new gas grill on the deck. The views of the ocean are just awesome and can be seen easily from the 2nd and 3rd floors inside the home and on the balconies. The pool was well used be our smaller children and was very conveniently located directly in front of the home. I cannot say enough good things about this home, the safe neighborhood, and the close proximity of walking distance to the Gulf Place Shops. We will be back.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Community is great! Very quiet! Safe for the kids to play. Pool very nice. House was disappointing. You walk in to the bedroom level(master on same level as other two). Then you go up two flights of stairs to the kitchen/living/dining room. Difficult with carrying things and for kids wanting to get a quick drink/snack. You also walk through a bedroom to get to the grill. Very odd. Close to beach. We will stay in the community again but get another house that is arranged differently. The floors of the house were so dirty that your feet were black after walking around but I have found this to be the case in every rental we have had in this area. The owner was a bit difficult. I would recommend the community but not this listing.Owner response: I have rented several different homes over the last ten years and this is my first complaint. The reason the guests response is negative is because they failed to pay the appropriate funds to rent the home in a timely and acceptable manner. Upon their departure, the cleaning crew advised that the King sheets were missing from the home and the renter was irate that I inquired as to the whereabouts of the sheets. It should be noted that I did not keep the guests security deposit. Our website clearly describes all rooms to include bedroom arrangements. This guest clearly just wanted to say something negative. It must be noted that at no time did I receive any complaint from these guests prior to, during, or after their vacation. This Entire Community and adjacent communities with homes valued over several millions of dollars were built with bedrooms on the first floor so that during the day the upper levels of the home could be used to see the beautiful ocean and not to be wasted while sleeping. The second floor does have a grill on the balcony and it was placed on the balcony so the guests could watch the children swimming in the pool and that is the closest deck to the kitchen. The wind will not allow a gas grill to stay lighted on the ocean side. As stated earlier, most all of the new homes are built with bedrooms to include the Master, on the first floor so you do not waste the beautiful views during the day. The kitchen, living room, and den are all on the second floor so you can enjoy the beautiful ocean views; look at our photo gallery. The reason the floors do get dirty is because all of the guests walk barefooted on the circular drive and it is made of asphalt. Asphalt has oil in it along with other chemicals and will cause your feet to get dirty. It is upon the guests to clean their feet prior to going inside the home because if they don’t, they will bring the dirt into the home. I keep our rates lower than any other comparable home in the community and our home is the model home of the community. For final payments I require a certified check, not a personal check; we do not accept credit cards due to the high fees. I wish other guests would type some comments but I have seen we all have busy lives and simply don't take the time.
