If you are looking for prime location in Seaside, this is it! Super quick walk to the private beach access, quick walk to Seaside center. The beach access was awesome, and our beach area wasn’t overcrowded on spring break. Great general area to walk and bike up and down 30A. The biggest of the 3 pools is only a few steps away. The house and outdoor porches were actually BIGGER than what the listing photos suggest (which usually isn’t the case on vacation rentals). Very roomy. Our teens enjoyed the outdoor decks and porches for nighttime hang-outs. The whole place was incredibly clean with lots of storage for luggage, clothing, food, etc. Maybe the cleanest property we’ve ever rented. Pillows and linens were amazing! The starter sets of essentials such as toilet paper, soaps, etc were generous. All pools, fitness center, and 2 bikes included in rental fee. (A few suggestions for owners to help future renters— update cooking utensils to include some non stick pans and better turners. This is a premium property at a premium price, but we ended up buying a non stick pan because the pans were not great. Maybe consider upgrading tvs and internet. The main couch had a rip in it, but we suggest just fixing not replacing because it’s the most comfortable couch! A lot of rental couches are pretty, but not necessarily the most comfortable. This one is great!) Thank you for a great stay. We highly recommend this property and would absolutely rent it again. Such a great choice.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall it was great. Great location. Trash was not picked up on Monday, so it sat and got very stinky. There was a leak from the freezer into the fridge. Wifi was very bad, so if we needed to work, we couldn't. Also frustrating since the tvs upstairs were streaming only.

Great family house!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed here twice and love the location. Beach access, morning coffee, shopping. Spacious and feels like home. Few things needing attention:-the internet is very spotty and usually won't connect-the master bath shower curtain liner has mold spots all over-the walk in closet attached to the jack & jill bathroom, all the shelving is SO loose. It needs anchors installed before it falls. -master bedroom closet door is hard to open and drags on floor leaving marks (not a new issue but surprised it wasn't fixed). Typical repairs for a house but overall great stay!

Hi John, thank you for taking time to post an overall positive review for Gentle Breeze & our Homeowners Collection team. The details & suggestions are so appreciated.

We are delighted you have returned for a second time and hope to welcome you back for any future Seaside visits. Be safe and enjoy a wonderful summer!
