I loved everything about this charming cottage including the location directly across from the ocean. It was immaculate and very tastefully decorated. Would recommend Lil Blessings without hesitation!

What a Blessing

We are "locals" jaunting over from Santa Rosa County, and we felt transported to another life when we get to Seaside. Lil Blessings was a tremendous place to spend our first wedding anniversary (and my husband's birthday) and although the rain kept us indoors for a little while, we felt right at home here. Love it and would recommend it to anyone for a romantic get-away.

My husband surprised me with a short getaway for our 10th anniversary. I have always wanted to vacation at Seaside. Lil' Blessings was a wonderful surprise. It met all of our needs for our stay. It was perfect for the two of us. It was so cute and comfortable. It was located just a short walk down to the town center and all the shopping and restaurants. The beach was just across the street down a private walk. I look forward to returning to Lil' Blessings.

'Lil' Blessing

We had a great stay at this "doll house" rental. It was clean and fresh and we would most definitely recommend it to friends. We have several church friends that want to hear all about our stay at Seaside. I loved the bookstore in the shopping area and our daughter and family who also rented a place while we were there loved the bicycle trails and we all loved the beach and the easy access. The weather was perfect too. Thanks so much for making this place available to us. We look forward to going back to Seaside next year.

This was the perfect getaway...great location and amenities. We were able to walk all over Seaside and were just a few steps from the ocean. We would definitely stay here again. It was the perfect place to rest, relax and unwind. Thank you for sharing your "perfect" cottage.

Brad and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lil Blessings! It was the perfect size for two and so nice to be across the street from the beach. The decor was fun and the unit was very well supplied. As usual, Seaside was a special place. We enjoyed meeting and visiting with the owner as well.

Comfortable cottage for 2 in great location

Guest: Sarah (Marietta, GA)
Date of Stay: 06/20/11 Review Submitted: 06/28/11

This is a very nice cottage...perfect location less than a block from the beach and 2 blocks from the square! Once we arrived, we only got in the car to go the grocery store 1 mile away--everything else is in walking distance. The cottage was nicely decorated and comfortable. I especially appreciated all the extra beach towels! This is the perfect place for a couple--and no more. We brought our 18 month old with us, and 3 was definitely a crowd (especially with the winding staircase)! So, next time I would stick to only 2 people. Just a few complaints: The listing says that there is WiFi--but it only works from the back patio because the connection is from the main house. Also, there is a DVD player as listed, but it did not work. I reported both these things, but nothing was done to correct the situation. These are minor issues, but were disappointing. Also, there was a little ant problem in the kitchen (which I was told was typical for the area), but we bought some ant spray at the store that easily took care of it. Other than that, it was a very nice place to stay and I would stay there again. You definitely can't beat the location!

My husband and I truly love Seaside and will certainly return to Lil' Blessings in the future. It was such a great location, had a great view of the ocean, and was decorated very true to seaside/coastal style. Mark and Shannon are very easy to work with and always accommodating. The cottage had everything we needed and we look forward to a future stay.

I surprised my wife with a quick trip for our anniversary. It was a perfect surprise for both of us. Excellent location with great access to the beach and Seaside businesses. The cottage is perfect for two (and no more). The local host greeted us and filled us in on things to do and eat and we had a great time. Not one thing I wish had been better.

No hot water

While the cottage was beautiful and we did enjoy our stay, the hot water heater was broken. So, cold showers for two days. Please get this fixed for your next guests.

Owner response:The guest was offered the opportunity to move to a larger cottage, but decided to stay. We have since replaced the hot water system.

Lil' Blessings made for a very enjoyable Honeymoon!

Guest: Michael and Melissa (Memphis, TN)
Date of Stay: 10/30/10 Review Submitted: 11/03/10

My wife and I stayed in Lil' Blessings for about a little over a week, and it made for a very enjoyable and romantic honeymoon. My wife kept commenting on how cute the whole place was. Although it's a bit small it fits a couple very nicely. We've stayed at a smiliar two-story one bedroom place in seaside, and Lil' Blessings was by far more enjoyable and comfortable than the other house. The layout for the bathroom was very spacious, and the overall layout made the flow of the house very enjoyable. Highly recommend for a couple if you are planning on staying at sea side. Great location close to the beach, as well as close to the resturants, coffee shops, etc in seaside.

Lil Blessings was truly a blessing for me and my fiance. We came to Seaside to scout it out for our wedding. Your house is the perfect size for us and the location was ideal for this visit! We would come every weekend if possible. The decor throughout the house is well planned and it is cozy, clean and exactly what was shown online with the pictures. The owner was helpful and I would recommend this place to everyone I know.

Lil' Blessings was the perfect place to stay while in Seaside. It was clean, comfortable, and the perfect location. We rode our bikes everywhere, walked to the beach and dinner, and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. I plan to stay here again the next time I visit! I have nothing but great things to say about this cottage. I would recommend it to anyone! Mark and Shannon were great to work with and made it very simple to rent. Thank you!

I would definitely recommend Lil Blessings! While the online photos of the cottage (and its great location) enticed us to stay, they did not do the cottage justice. The cottage was just perfect -- had just the amenities we needed, was spotless, and the attention to detail with the decorating was so impressive. The view of the ocean from the second floor and the quick walk to town made it that much better. It was very difficult to leave!

My husband and I recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at Seaside, staying at Lil Blessings. The cottage was as charming as the website reflected. We think it is the best location at Seaside. It was so close to the square and the beautiful beaches. The cottage is well appointed and so very comfortable. We absolutely loved it. We certainly plan on returning just the two of us and will definitely use this vacation rental company when we are looking for some place to bring our two boys. It is a great little cottage, we had a wonderful, relaxing time. We would also recommend the Southern Cafe which is just a few blocks away. Great food!!! reasonable prices and a great Happy hour!!! Do not miss!!!

My husband and I stayed at Lil Blessings for our wedding anniversary and it was the perfect space for two people. The cottage is beautiful and extremely comfortable! It is also centrally located and right across the street from the beach. The only problem we experienced with Lil Blessings was the shower. It was either scalding hot or freezing cold and took a bit of work to get to a manageable temperature. That aside, it was perfect, and we hope to stay there again in the future!

GREAT HOUSE, COZY & CONVIENENT TO EVERYTHING AT SEASIDE, VERY NICE PLACE TO STAY

Guest: BLISSFULL (St. louis)
Date of Stay: 03/27/10 Review Submitted: 04/04/10

Everything was as advertized. Great little house, perfect location accross the street from the beach and two blocks from downtown Seaside. We had a place for all the extra stuff we always seem to drag with us on vacation but never need. The bed was especially good for a rental home from past experience. The only downer was the internet access which was week and sporadic for that little bit of work I needed to do. Overall we would give it 4 1/2 stars.

I brought my daughter to Seaside for a mother/daughter trip and Lil' Blessings was perfect for our 4 night stay. My 15 year old daughter loved the cottage and compared it to a doll house. It is lovely, very clean, well maintained, and has all the conveniences one could need or want. We had a wonderful time... our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer.

This was our first trip to Seaside and we rented the 1 bedroom Lil Blessings cottage. Seaside and the cottage were amazing! The cottage had everything we needed and was very clean and tidy. The recomendations of restaurants, bike rentals, etc from Sandpiper Rentals was very helpful for first timers like us! We were walking distance to everything and right across from the beach. We are already planning a trip back there soon!

We had the best time at Lil'Blessings! The decor was unbelievable and everything was so clean and new looking. The location was perfect. We felt like honeymooners while we were there, although we celebrated our 36th anniversary! It was a beautiful place to stay and soak up the sunshine and walk the beaches. We loved it!!

It was really nice to be able to walk across the street and be on the beach and to be just a couple blocks from nice restaurants and shopping - great location. Can't wait to come back.
