It is in a wonderful location. Very convenient to everything. Itâs is only a few miles from the square. Only a few blocks from public access to the beach. It is a very safe neighborhood. The amenities in the neighborhood were wonderful. It comes with four bikes which is very nice because you can ride bikes everywhere. They have a great bike trail next to the road which is very safe. Highly recommend!

Thank you for the lovely review. Weâd love to host you again! RealJoy Vacations
Love how the kids had the upstairs all to themselves so no one was on top of each other. My sister and her family stayed directly across the street from us which was also nice!

Kristen, thank you for your 5-star review. We hope to welcome you all back soon!
This house is 100% fantastic! I have stayed in many Vrbo houses and condos, and this one tops the list. The setup is perfectly suited for a family with older kids who can sleep in the upstairs bunk rooms. With a king sized bed/bedroom upstairs and down as well, there are great sleeping options for adults. It is beautiful inside and out, with a wonderful front porch swing and a cozy screened in porch on the back. We did not lack any amenity in any area, and the supply closet is full of any beach item you could possibly need. The bicycles were such an added treat. We rode all over Seagrove and into Seaside and Watercolor. In fact, we never drove our car in the three days and four nights we were there! I would hands-down, wholeheartedly recommend this house to anyone looking for a wonderful house in Seagrove.
My husband and I stayed for five weeks and we thoroughly enjoyed the home! Cassine Gardens is a beautiful little gem of a neighborhood. If youâre looking for a quiet retreat, this is the place for you! Easy access to the beach and surrounding shops/restaurants. Walkable neighborhood. Pickleball (on the tennis courts). Pool. There is a trail but it was a little tricky walking on it as there were a lot of cypress roots sticking out of the ground! The house was stocked with everything which we appreciated. The only suggestion would be with both king beds. The bed frames are chunky and only had the mattress and no box spring. So the beds sit lower than normal. We would absolutely stay again!
This property is a great spot! My kids rode bikes around the little neighborhood circle. 2 pools to choose from, tennis, pickleball- and youâre a 3 minute walk to the beach. Great location and a charming home. We loved it.
Vacation was awesome, the house fit 7 of us with room to spare. You don't have the ocean view from this house but it was literally a 4 minute walk to the beach. Several places to eat close to the house. They had bikes and the kids used them every night. A lot of amenities and shopping close to where we were at. would highly recommend.
This property was perfectly located a very short walk to the beach and had everything you could need for all of the amenities that were offered with the property rental. From pickleball and tennis equipment to beach toys or bikesâŚthey thought of everything to make this stay easy and fun!

Melody, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're glad you found the property perfectly located and well-equipped for a fun getaway! We hope you join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
This house is adorable. Perfect location. Close to anything and everything you will be needing and wanting to do. We will be looking to book again this summer and I hope to rent from Howard when we come back.
Lovely home in a great neighborhood. Just a few minute walk to the beach. The house was stocked with everything needed for our familyâs stay. We will visit again.
The whole family enjoyed the stay and everything was just as promised. The location is ideal as it is quite but in easy and short walking to distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. The space easily accommodated our family with room to spare and it was truly turn key with everything we needed being provided. Thanks to Howard for the communication through out the process and our stay! We would recommend this spot for a family trip anytime.

Family Beach House Vacation
Such a beautiful, spacious, well kept home. Quiet, friendly neighborhood. Very clean and well stocked. We had everything we needed to enjoy a wonderful week at the beach, including bikes and beach chair. My only complaint is that we didn't book a longer vacation.

This is our 2nd time staying at the Claire 'n Bea. It was once again a lovely vacation. We did miss the personal touch from when the property owner managed the rental, but RealJoy did a fine job. This property has all you need for your beach stay. A short walk to the sandy beach, a bike ride to a restaurant and plenty of shops all close by. The house was clean abd the beds were comfortable. We love this place and will stay again.

We hope you'll join us again soon to enjoy the convenient location, comfortable accommodations, and all the nearby amenities. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Enough beds and space for me party members . Recommendations: more towels bath and dish towels , spray for insects(spiders ) , need better temperature control and not alternating up and down . Itâs too hot for 78 degrees. Outside Waterhouse could use a roll up wheel itâs all kinked and hard to use . These are recommendations. Overall the teen girls enjoyed themselves.

My wife, 10 month old, and I booked this house with the grandparents. We wanted to spend our baby's first vacation in a relaxing location. This placed delivered. The house was fully stocked of anything you could need, it was a short walk to the beautiful beach, restaurants a d dessert options were also within walking distance, and the neighborhood was great! Seagrove/Santa Rosa Beach is so much better than the heavily trafficked areas of Seaside and Rosemary Beach. We will stay here and you should too!

Great house/neighborhood in walking distance to beach
Mr Howard, the homeowner, is very quick to reply to all questions before and during our stay. The house set up was perfect for our group; my husband and I, my parents, and 5 teenage girls!! Loved the bunkroom (4 twins) with 2 additional bunks in the hallway upstairs outside of the bunk room. Two additional rooms with kings. Another perk was the additional vanity outside of the full bathroom in the upstairs area so all of the teenage girls could get ready!!
The homeowners have 10 bikes, a beach cart, several umbrellas, lots of beach chairs, and sand toys if needed. 2 pools and 2 tennis/pickle ball courts in the neighborhood. The house has 2 charcoal grills. It was an easy 5-8 minute walk thru the neighborhood and across the street to the SeaGrove Beach Public access. Also walking distance to Mexican restaurant, Brozinniâs pizza, ice cream shop, donut shop, and trading post. 2 mile Bike ride to Seaside. This area of SeaGrove Beach area is much less crowded than Seaside. We had a wonderful trip!!

So glad you and your family had a great time and enjoyed the house. My wife and I work hard to make sure the house has everything one would we need for an enjoyable beach vacation.
Overall it was a great place to stay. House was better stocked than most weâve rented. Thereâs bikes, toys, sand chairs, umbrellas, pickle ball equipment. Seems bigger than whatâs listed on vrbo. The walk to the beach is longer than 5 minutes but still not too bad. Itâs in a great location for good restaurants and just a short distance from Seaside. If I had to list some negativesâŚone would be there was not toilet paper in the house when we got there. Not even a setup- nothing and the thermostat has about a million schedules set so at night it would go up to 79 and also in the middle of the day while we were at the beach. They told us they were sending someone out to look at it, but they didnât. Over 24 hours after I called they called back but by then we had already figured out how to clear the schedules. The front porch, chairs and cushions could use some cleaning and paint. Overall great for the price but probably wonât choose this rental again.

Lacy, Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your vacation. We're glad to hear that the house was well-stocked and provided amenities like bikes and beach equipment. We apologize for the inconvenience with the thermostat and are glad that you were able to resolve it. You should have gotten an email prior to your stay letting you know that we provide starters of kitchen and bathroom essentials so you should plan to bring these items from home or purchase them once you get here. This is for safety reasons. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Thanks Marissa! Glad you had a great time!!! We can't wait to have you come back!!
Nice VRBO to stay in. The beach access is a public access so you are sharing the beach on a small area of beach. If you want to be in the front of all the other chairs and tents, you will have to go down very early in the morning before 7. Otherwise, you may not get a very good spot. Be on the lookout for all the people on bikes. Very crowded this time of year. The house itself is wonderful and had everything we needed. Many beach chairs are at the beachhouse but they are all the low chairs so if you're up in years as I am, you may want to bring yourself a taller chair. lol We had a wonderful time!

Amy- Thanks for your comments. Yes, summertime is a busy and popular time to be at the beaches along 30A. In all the years we have been sharing our home we have not heard anyone mention anything about the height of our chairs. Most people enjoy the lower chairs so they can dip their feet in the water or the sand, but it's something we will keep in mind going forward. We're glad you enjoyed the house!
Howard
This gorgeous beach home is spacious, beautifully decorated, and includes all the necessities...plus more! We thouroughly enjoyed our stay, especially the bikes (included), neighborhood pools, and the five minute walk to the beach. Howard was very helpful and answered all of my questions right away. I highly recommend this property!
