Why the Owner Chose Old Florida Cottages

Most beautiful beaches, and great amenities nearby. Family friendly, and our grandchildren love it!

The Unique Benefits at this Cottage

We love to walk to Goatfeathers and buy fresh shrimp from the ground floor seafood shop, have them steamed and bring them home, toss a salad and have a shrimp feast! The restaurant is great, too, and so convenient. And the outlet mall is only about 15 minutes away and a favorite for shopping.
Rent a bike from the shop at Gulf Place, or stop in for a treat of ice cream or pastries and coffee at Miss Lucille's Gossip Parlor. Lunch at Smiling Fish Cafe is always special, all at Gulf Place, within walking distance!
One of the favorite things about our house is that every bedroom has its own private porch, and you can get away with a good book or quiet moments alone after an activity filled day.

Guest: Scuba Bob (Hotlanta)
Date of Stay: 06/25/11 Review Submitted: 07/07/11

We stayed at Sea Cabin the last week of July, and brought exactly 8 people, my Wife and I, 4 boys and two girls. This place fit us perfectly with it's master bedroom, queen bedroom, and two bunk bed room. Each room has an en suite bathroom, as well as a porch/deck off each bedroom. The pictures don't really do this property justice, as the trees on the property have all grown, and in the case of the master bedroom, provide lot's of shade, and privacy for the porch off the master. My wife and I spent an hour every morning on this quiet porch with two Adirondack chairs, sipping coffee and surfing the internet on out laptops. The kitchen/living area is fully equipped. The kitchen has every utensil you will need, and the living area has a nice LCD TV with a DVD player so the kids can settle down to a movie in the evening. The deck off the living area (yes that is a total of 4 decks!) has plenty of room for storing your beach items, and the shower is right there as well. The pool is right outside the back deck, along with two gas grills. We cooked out two night, and it was nice to meet other people in the complex as they were cooking. The walk to the beach is very short, around a block, and with minimal parking at this access point, the beach is not too crowded. Sea Cabin has lot's of information about local activities, and there is plenty to do if hanging at the beach is not all you want to do. We went to the Outlets, Pensacola NAS Naval Museum, Margaritaville in Panama Beach, and the kids went to most of the water/game parks in Destin. Always a treat is going to Red Bar down the road in Grayton Beach. It was packed Friday night, but the food is awesome, and the jazz really good. The owner was very responsive to our inquiry, and promptly responded to our questions, and the unit is exactly as advertised. I highly recommend Sea Cabin for a quiet relaxing vacation.

Owner response:Bob, Thank you for the great discription of your stay in our house, Sea Cabin, and the area activities you enjoyed. Your review is much appreciated. Mary

Myhusband and I had a great time staying at Sea Cabin. The house was as advertised, very clean and beautifully decorated. The owners were friendly and helpful. Bicycling 30A bike path was fun and enjoyed all the little art shops.

Owner response:Thank you so much. We appreciate your review and look forward to having you stay again at Sea Cabin. Thank you for taking such good care of our house while you were there. It was a pleasure to have you stay and to talk with you. Mary

Sea Cabin was just as we had expected. Great location, wonderful pool, close to the beach, and lots of friendly people. The cabin had everything we needed. In fact, we had never stayed in as much as we did at this location. Our girls, 12, 8 and 6 loved it too. We rented bikes and enjoyed the adventures. We plan to go back. Thanks for the wonderful stay.

Your "Sea Cabin" is beautiful. My children loved being so close to the pool. We loved the porches/balconies and we enjoyed outdoor "picnics". Thank you for allowing your place to be a part of our family memories! May 28- June 4, 2005

May 21-28, 2005. We had the most wonderful vacation here!! We loved Santa Rosa Beach and Sea Cabin! This was our son's first real beach experience - he's two and had a blast playing in the sand - and having the pool right outside was wonderful! You guys really thought of everything to make your guests comfortable! We did not want for anything! We'll be back next year!

This was our 2nd trip to Sea Cabin and we had such a great time... Sea Cabin is a perfect place to spend a vacation - great layout, nicely furnished, pool and close to an amazing beach. We plan on making this a habit.
