  Wonderful house--very open, bright, cheerfully decorated--and couldn't be closer to the beach! My family and I had the pleasure of staying here for over a week, and the worst part of our stay was having to leave. The house is located within walking distance of some restaurants, and within bike-riding distance of many restaurants and shops (there are sidewalks for many miles in either direction, making travel by foot/bike very easy). We ate out some nights and cooked in others, made use of the grill, spent time at the beach every day (beautiful water! white sand!), and sat on the upper deck at night to look at the stars. The house was clean and comfortable, and even prettier than the pictures--it felt like a "home away from home" right away. Cindy was a wonderfully accommodating hostess--very friendly, and she made sure we had the best stay possible. I highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a wonderful beach vacation!

  We had a blast. The property was as close to the beach as possible and close to the town and restaurants and everything imaginable. It was an easy walk up and down the boardwalk with young kids. The property was clean and well-maintained and the owner was readily available to answer any questions or concerns we had. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend.

  Our family of 6 enjoyed a fantastic week at Looney Dunes. The location was perfect and the house met our every need. We enjoyed the beach everyday and either walked or road bikes to dinner, shopping, ice cream, sight seeing, community events every night. We spent time on both decks enjoying the views and the breeze df the ocean. We would highly reccommend this property to others and look forward to many return trips in the future.

  We just spent a week at Looney Dunes and it couldn't of been more perfect! The home and location was accurately described in the listing. The pictures were reflective of everything, however I have to say it was even better in person especially the view from the top deck. All of the beds were very comfortable and we had a very relaxing and fun filled week. This is the only area my family ever goes to in Florida, this was the 21st year we have sent a week there. I will be very interested in staying at this property again, it was exactly as described. Thank you Cindy for the note welcoming my family and I, and also the phone call to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property without any reservations! Cindy Bass

  Great home, lovely surroundings. I have spent the past 12 years renting homes in this area and Looney Dunes compares to the most excellent homes in the area but at a more affordable price. Some of the surrounding homes have truly priced themselves out of what I call a reasonable price but Looney Dunes is affordable and truly grand. The views out of the master bedroom are spectacular! The kitchen is fully equipped. They have done such a nice job putting a personal touch on this home!

  We recently rented Looney Dunes for a week long beach vacation and thoroughly enjoyed the amazing views the home affords. It was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We absolutely loved the upper and lower decks. Beach access is super convenient with the walkway literally right next to the house. The kitchen was well-equipped, open, and bright. It was a great size for our family of five. We even had room to spare! The house is conveniently located near Seaside but out of the fray. You're within walking distance to several good restaurants and can easily drive to anything along 30-A. Absolutely perfect location. Thank you to the owner for sharing their home and for checking in with us upon arrival to be sure everything was in order.

  Looney Dunes had perfect space and comforts for our family. We loved chilling out on the beach and relaxing on the upper deck. This property had all the ammenties of home (kitchen, bedroom, etc.). It is in such a convenient location to everything (Seaside, Pier Park, Outlets, Publix and restaurants). We definitely hope to visit again one day.

  This wonderful beach home was clean, well stocked, warm and inviting, and has a simply magnificent view. The owner was in contact to ensure everything was to our satisfaction, and it most certainly was. I am a self described incredibly particular traveler and is home met all my expectations.

  We really enjoyed our stay at Looney Dunes. The house is spacious and the views are amazing! The beach was just a short walk down the walk way which was so nice! The furniture is clean and comfortable and the owner was wonderful. I would highly recommend staying at this home when visiting the Seagrove/Seaside area. We were able to bike to Seaside and even walk very easily. The location of the house is perfect and there are many amenities just down 30A. The hardest decision each day was whether or not to go to the beach, sit on the top deck and enjoy a glass of wine, or head out to Seaside and enjoy the town. Thank you so much for sharing your house with us. I cannot say enough good things about it!
