Located Across From the Beach in Seaside, 69 feet to beach + 2 Adult Bikes!

Welcome to Morning Star, a prime-location guest cottage in Seaside, Florida, located directly across from the beach and only 69 feet to the beach access on Odessa Street! It is only a 5-minute walk to downtown Seaside with over 35 shops and restaurants within walking distance from your front door. This coastal cottage is new to our program and radiates beach vibes with its tasteful, light teal exterior. Guests can locate this cottage entry down a sandy footpath surrounded by white picket fences just off of HWY 30A in Seaside proper.

As guests reach their destination surrounded by the sounds of the Gulf across the way, they are greeted by an inviting fenced front yard area with plenty of shade and lush greenery. Step inside a blue entry door to a small foyer with stairs leading to the combined open living up and doors to the left leading to the queen bedroom. The queen bedroom down has privacy doors to the foyer, a large mounted flat-screen TV, a dresser for storage, a closet, and an ensuite bathroom. The private renovated bathroom has a single vanity and a large glass-enclosed walk-in shower with a rain head. The first story is solely devoted to this queen room area, allowing for the perfect balance!

Guests can head up the staircase by the front door to land in an open living area with comfortable, cushioned seating for all, a dining table for two people next to a flatscreen TV, high ceilings, and plenty of windows, allowing for the famous Florida sunshine to radiate throughout the spacious level. Next to the living area sits a fully equipped kitchen space, inclusive of a full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, mounted microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and an oven with an electric stove top to allow you the full convenience of cooking meals at home. The adjacent private balcony features seating for two and stellar views of the town and the happenings overlooking Highway 30A.

Quaint cottage in wrong location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our cottage was cozy and quaint. Being this was our first visit to Seaside we relied on Homeowners Collection to guide our rental decision. While the description of the cottage amenities were accurate, they neglected to inform us that being right off the sidewalk and 30A would never provide a moments peace. The peace and quiet we craved for our vacation getaway escaped us unless we were on the beach. Morning, afternoon and way into the evening (after the 10 pm noise ordinance) was extremely loud with trucks engines, cars blasting music, and co-ed's partying. We can not recommend this cottage if you want quiet.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Mar 2026
Hello there, We greatly appreciate your time and detailed feedback of your Seaside experience, as pertaining to where your Cottage was located. I can surely understand the disappointment and at lack of peace & quiet, especially so, as we are in the peak of spring breakers. We are glad you did enjoy the quaint & coziness of Morning Star, amenities and Homeowners Collection services. We do hope to welcome you back to try an alternate "hide away" location that still has conveniences. (I might suggest February or October without the crowds),,, A Management Team Member will be in touch to discuss further, offline.

Only downside was not able to make last minute decision to hang out at the beach for a few hours or an hour even due to having rent chairs ahead of time from one place that was pretty expensive.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I had the best time at The Morning Star cottage. The cottage itself was adorable and perfect for just the 2 of us. You couldn't beat the location either. It's super close to everything. We didn't even need our car for the week unless we were driving out of town. Beach access was right across from us and we walked to town every morning for coffee. We fell in love with Seaside!

Perfect Cottage for 2

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: This cottage was very close to the beach making trips back and forth easy! It was very clean and beautifully decorated. The washer and dryer in the bedroom closet was very useful. The kitchen had most of the things you would need, but be sure to bring coffee filters for the complimentary coffee that’s gifted in the beach bag. There’s a small bike rack to lock up the complimentary bikes. I would definitely rent this cottage again!

Hi Valerie, so kind of you to take time to share a positive review of Morning Star and Homeowners Collection team! We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and we do hope to welcome you back for any future Seaside visits. Keep in mind, for next time, our Guest Services would be happy to bring filters by, but I will make a note for housekeeping to keep it stocked. going forward...

Perfect Location but Hiccups

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the first our first trip to Seaside and it was the perfect location but everyday we had issues (they were resolved, but delays each day) with this management company. We were walking distance from everything is Seaside with this location. Bud and Alley's and the Seaside center where all the shopping and restaurants are less than a 5 minute walk. We never drove our car once we parked it.Very nice property with the perfect amount of space for a couple. My wife and I enjoyed the fun layout. There are some damages to the property that are immediately noticeable like the big crack down the middle of the stove top range counter in the kitchen and a few stones missing from the shower floor. At the end of the day we really did not spend much time in this carriage house.The issues we had with Homeowner's was that everything we needed to enjoy our vacation was not in our arrival package so we had to wait each day to get our day started. We did not have the beach bands to access the beach, the next day we did not have the pool access code, and we also were not given a parking pass and we almost got towed (I'm still trying to get the glue off my window from the sticker the put on my window) Even with the issues we would stay again with the hopes it will be a smoother vacation. Now that we know what we need to have for the amenities.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Jul 2024
Hi Vincent, First of all, thank you for taking the time to share feedback in such detail. We are terribly sorry you experienced delays on the beach bands, access cards & parking pass. This incident is a rarity with our Guest Services and we apologize for your inconvenience. I will look into this with our Quality Control Manager. We are pleased you enjoyed Morning Star and will let the Property Manager know about the stove top and shower floor. Our Homeowners Collection team hopes you will give us another chance for any future visits back to Seaside. Have a wonderful summer!

Great Location

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: Great location within close walking distance to beach and all that Seaside has to offer. Did not visit the pools and other ammenities but stayed on the beautiful beach. The property has just enough room for 2. The bedroom is a little small as not much room to put your luggage but I usually pack too much anyway! Would stay here again.
