About this property

Beachfront Luxury in Seaside, Sleeps 24! Wow Porches & Gulf Views + 2 Bikes!

Main home (5 bds, sleeps 18): 3 bunk rooms, king, king
Carriage house: (2 bds, sleeps 6): king, bunk room

Welcome to El Dorado, a stunning beachfront retreat in Seaside, Florida, offering unparalleled Gulf and sunset views. Extending from Scenic Highway 30A all the way to the dunes overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, this extraordinary property features porches and open-air living areas on every level, creating the ultimate setting for relaxation and gathering. Designed to host large groups, the home is rented as a single property but functions as two complete residences—the main house and carriage house—together sleeping up to 24 guests.

The first floor of the main house is designed with families in mind, featuring three custom-built bunk rooms that together sleep 14. Each room includes built-in storage, and two share a marble-accented bath with a glass-enclosed tub/shower combo, while the third enjoys its own spacious ensuite with a soaker tub and walk-in shower. Guests will also find a laundry room, Peloton bike, and a porch with cozy bed swings and an outdoor shower on this level.

Upstairs, the second floor showcases two luxurious king primary suites, each with spa-like marble bathrooms, soaking tubs, walk-in showers, and dual vanities. Both open onto the expansive shared beachfront porch, offering sweeping Gulf views and breathtaking sunsets from a plush lounge seating area.

Connected by an enclosed bridge, the carriage house offers additional privacy and flexibility. The lower level features a king suite and a bunk room with two sets of twin bunks, each with its own bathroom and Juliet balconies, plus a washer/dryer. The upper level includes a full kitchen, dining and living areas, and a porch overlooking Scenic Highway 30A and Seaside’s town center, perfect for enjoying the lively atmosphere.

The third floor of the main house serves as the heart of the home with a chef’s kitchen featuring three Wolf ovens, a six-burner gas stove, and ample space for preparing meals for the whole group. The dining room seats 10 with additional bistro seating for 2, while the living room boasts Gulf views, a large TV, and direct access to an expansive porch. Outdoors, guests can lounge on sofas, dine al fresco at a table for eight, or simply take in the panoramic beach and sunset views.

Additional conveniences include a 2-car garage (for small to mid-size vehicles) and nearby overflow parking. With its thoughtful design, luxurious amenities, and unmatched beachfront location, El Dorado is the ultimate destination for family gatherings, reunions, and unforgettable Seaside memories.

* Guests have access to the 2-car garage. The garage holds 2 small/mid-size vehicles only. Due to the proximity to the neighboring home, there is no parking on the driveway between the homes. Overflow parking will need to be used for larger vehicles or more than 2 mid-size vehicles.

** 5 Night minimum for Spring, Spring Break, and Summer 2026. 3 Nights Fall, 2 Nights Winter. Must be 25 years of age to rent & sign registration.

Great time, large cockroaches are a problem but they are mostly outside, in all fairness this is a problem with most Florida homes. Homeowners is probably the best rental agency in Seaside and they manage the property so this is a great plus.We’ve rented here multiple times a year for 30 plus years. If you come during fall break expect long waits at most restaurants along 30a.Fall break is the middle 3 weeks of October, teenage mobs are just now starting to be addressed by Seaside. Starting at Sunset they make most other activity difficult plus local older young men come to Seaside to hit on the younger teenage girls. They come to seen and heard loud cars loud music. This year is the first year I’ve seen Seaside institute a curfew. It seems poorly enforced but is a start.

Perfect location and layout of beautiful Seaside beachside home

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: Homeowners Collection is phenomenal. Amazing staff (particularly Raechel), so accommodating, so professional. The house is beautiful and location is amazing. We had a few issues that were resolved by HC quickly. The furniture in the common area and on the porch could use a refresh but the beds and bathrooms were so comfortable and nice. Overall a fabulous vacation week!

The El Durado at Seaside is the BEST

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The El Durado is situated at the best location right on the white sugar sand of the best beach in mainland USA. Our family celebrated victory over cancer by having everyone vacay together. The view is priceless. We arrived to a spotless (not one piece of sand inside) spectacular home with 2 porches. We enjoyed the perfect Cabana set up with tent and umbrellas and tables, thanks Gabe! a fishing trip, mystery night, breakfast and dinner by Chef Darian in Pensacola, professional beach photos, fried up fish and hush puppies on the grill inside, grilled burgers and dogs on the Fourth of July and enjoyed the best seat in town for the fireworks. Everyone wanted to come back. This memory will last a lifetime. Thanks Homeowners Collection.

It was a pleasure everyday staying in Eldorado & Homeowners Colle

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very pleased with Eldorado and Homeowners Collection. I would stay again and would recommend this property to anyone going to Seaside Proper. The description of the home was on target. Still I was surprised everyday about how perfect everything was overall including amazing views of the Ocean and the happy dolphins. Homeowners Collection does a fantastic job from maintenance to services. We only regret having to leave. C
