Amazing beachfront condo
This condo was perfect for our family of five. The location is amazing, the view from the back porch is breath-taking, and every bed (including the sofa bed) was super comfortable. We will be back!

Wonderful Beach Vacation
This was our first time vacationing in Seacrest (30A), and I will definitely recommend this area and condo again. We will always prefer the private beach as it is less crowded than other surrounding public beaches. It was perfect for our family of 4 (two children ages 5 and 2).

Relaxing
We have stayed here numerous times. New furniture this trip! The place looks really nice. Air conditioning was perfect, bed was comfortable as usual, price is more reasonable than other units we checked at Seamist. We really like the covered porch for storing paddle boards and bikes. Thank you Craig and Sheila.

we loved your place and the convenience to the beach and dinner. We plan to come back in the fall. We noticed a water leak around the bottom to the commode. I unfortunately forgot to leave the parking pass. Give me an address and i will overnight. Sorry about that. Bob and Tammy

Spring Break 24
My husband couldnt go so my best friend went with me and it was perfect. Being able to look out and see the beach and gulf was great. The condo was as described. The ease of the whole process of reserving, checking in and out was. The owners were quick to answer my questions. I would definitely recommend this and would stay here again.

Awesome location!! Beautiful private beach. Breathtaking views. Literally just steps from the beach. Only complaint is condo wasn’t what I would call clean however not a dealbreaker. I would most definitely recommend this property based on location & owner is very responsive & pleasant. We’ll be coming back soon.

Beach
The beach was perfect. Access was super convenient and got front row everyday. Condo was nice. Some beds, counters, floors still had some sand on them. I think the upstairs unit may have had an issue with plumbing as we heard the maintenance guy talking to others about an issue. You could definitely smell something in the unit the whole time. If you are there for the beach this place is tough to beat.

Great Location
Pros: - Can’t beat the location. It’s right on the beach and not very busy at all. - Very clean condo and updated - parking was super nice and within steps of our door - plenty of kitchen basics, including ice packs for our cooler for the beach - covered deck area for relaxing - beach toys/chairs - paved trail for biking/walking/running The only thing I would change is the long drive home and the water pressure in the shower. However, every condo/unit we have stayed at in the past has had just okay water pressure. We enjoyed our stay and we plan to come back next year!

Great stay
We loved our stay at this place. Sheila was so responsive and helpful. Walk down stairs right on a non busy portion of the beach. Toys in the beach box out back for kids to take down to the beach. Roku TV worked great, washer and dryer worked fine, only complaint would be the shower drain didn’t hold water well for a bath, for the littles. Super pleased and would definitely recommend. Truly was a great stay.

Very nice condo on the beach!
This condo was perfect for our few night stay in the 30A area. It was a short drive to Alys, Rosemary and Seaside, One of the favorite things about this property is it being directly on the beach- which was absolutely gorgeous. The only thing that I didn't love was the sliding glass door doesn't "lock", they just have a piece of wood you put in the track so that no one can open it. We would definitely stay here again and recommend for a couple's trip!

Great beach front condo!
You will love this bright, comfortable first floor beachfront condo with a lovely outdoor deck. Great views, amenities, and private beach area. There is a brand new huge Publix grocery store a few miles away with everything you need. We also enjoyed the “Big Chill” only one mile away. It consists of an outdoor court and stage and a number of restaurants and shops surrounding it. It is normally set up with picnic tables. Great place for the family. They have weekly activities such a movie night and a farmers market every Thursday morning. As noted by others, there are about 70 steps to reach the beach due to the high dunes, but all the properties are like that. We have never been to this area in Florida and thoroughly enjoyed it — can’t wait to come back again!

About the host

Hosted by Craig and Sheila Maynard

Host profile image
We welcome you to our family beach home. The Maynard family has owned and managed this prime property since 1983 and many of our guests were introduced to us many years ago. We are proud to be second generation owners offering our "Home by the Sea" to our guests.

Why they chose this property

Once you enjoy the Emerald Coast experience you will know why the Maynard family are proud to call this our "Home by the Sea."

Our property is our own vacation home. It is equipped as such and offers a family atmosphere separated from the hustle and bustle of some other popular beach destinations.

What makes this property unique

We are nestled in between Rosemary and Seaside. We are in Seagrove Beach! We are just a 10 minute drive to Pier Park at Panama City Beach. It is really nice on 30A with quiet family friendly beaches. Our beach is very secluded from noisy crowds. You can walk right off our back porch to the beach and not worry about packing coolers and all the things you need for a day at the beach. If you forget something, just walk right up the steps to the condo. There is a nice veranda to relax and read a book and watch the children play in the sand. Cook dinners on our outside grill while watching the ocean and sunset. It is our families paradise. We are just minutes from Seaside and Rosemary. There are sidewalks that run the length of 30A for bikers or walkers. This is definitely a biking community with many places to rent bikes. Seagrove has been rated the most secluded beaches on 30A.
