About this property

We've rolled back our rates to 2023! Lots of weeks open for summer and fall!

Hi! My name is Vicki and I'd like to tell you about Beyond the Sea. If you have any questions after reading, please feel free to contact me. I want you to have a great time at Beyond the Sea!

Picking a vacation rental can be exhausting. It can really make your head spin. After a while all the numbers of bedrooms and glowing adjectives run together and become a blur.

At Beyond the Sea, we do things a little differently, this included. I hope it helps you out.

So why should you stay at Beyond the Sea? Here a few highlights.

*Beyond the Sea sleeps 10, all in beds - 2 kings, 1 queen and 4 twins. No one is sleeping on a couch, futon or sleeper sofa in a common space. We have 4 real bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms. Your whole group will be comfortable day and night. If there are 2 couples, no one has to fight over a king bed.

*The kitchen is stocked. I like to cook when I'm on vacation and Beyond the Sea has the tools, gadgets, knives, pots and small appliances that I like to use. The pots are large so you can actually cook for a big group. The knives are sharp. If you want to start your morning with a big breakfast, we have an electric griddle for pancakes and 2 waffle irons. The kitchen won't let you down. If you like to eat out, don't worry about your leftovers, the fridge will hold them.

*Beyond the Sea is furnished the way we'd want to find a rental. It doesn't look like a condo furniture company dropped off a kit, and it doesn't have the same style as everyone else. We want you to feel at home when you walk in the door. We believe in a setting that makes you feel relaxed and at home while on vacation. We believe in fast internet. We also believe in extras, like games and books to read to your kids, DVDs and beanbags, whole house speakers, umbrellas and baby equipment in the master suite. We like extras and we think you will too! We have 6 Electra Townie bikes with baskets to cruise around town on.

*Beyond the Sea is Spacious. I know that word gets tossed around a lot, but I mean it. We are on a wide lot for Seacrest and the house uses it well. Ours is a house built for a group who wants to spend time together but not be on top of each other.

*The outdoor spaces at Beyond the Sea are abundant. The front porch is the entire width of the house, and it is deep. There is a matching balcony above it with plenty of seating behind the privacy of palm fronds. At the back of the house is a screened porch with a dining table that is perfect for a late summer evening dinner or early morning coffee. The private deck off the master bedroom is perfect for escaping too! Not all houses offer you so many comfortable ways to enjoy the outdoors.

*Location, Location, Location. Beyond the Sea is a very short walk to the pool, about 2 minutes, and a quick tram ride to the beach. If you're up for it, walking to the beach isn't bad either.

*For your non-water and sun time, a brief and pleasant stroll takes you to Alys Beach for lunch at George's or a coffee while your kids play on the amazing playground next to Fonville Press. An even shorter walk will have you in the heart of Rosemary Beach for coffee at Amavida, lots of shopping, the childhood delight of the Sugar Shak and plenty of good food. A margarita from LaCo, multiple treats and the shops at Peddler's Village are even closer. Beyond the Sea feels like it is in the heart of the neighborhood. It sits in the right place to make your walk to town a breeze.

*If you must leave, the attractions of Panama City Beach are about a 15 minute drive. If it's a visit to Destin, your drive is about 30 minutes. On your return home, you find 2 private parking places waiting for you.

*I hope this has given you a little peek into a stay at Beyond the Sea. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. It's a wonderful escape from the real world.

We hope you will be Happy at Beyond the Sea!

Christmas

We had a lovely stay at beyond the sea and would recommend it to friends. The property was clean, comfortable, and had all the equipment/items for anyone’s cooking needs. I think we spent more time in the kitchen and dining area than anywhere in the house but the bedrooms were equally as nice. The bikes were a nice touch for the neighborhood but I especially liked the biking/running path as I was able to do a non-interrupted run to deer lake state park and back (9 miles if anyone wants to run it) The seacrest/seaside area does get really crowded with families as most people know but the public beaches are beautiful. I do wish Florida had a coastal commission that regulated beach access for the public and not just give priority to the developers and the rich but I think that’s another issue entirely. I will say that deer lake state park was probably my favorite thing to visit as it provided more of a natural scenic view rather and allowed for relaxation and great pics. The family had a great time and hope that anyone that reads this and books has a lovely time too.

Beautiful House

Beautiful home, tastefully, decorated and fully stocked. Great location, bikes for riding, and a short walk to shopping and dining. Trim service to the beach was very convenient as well. My only complaint is with the beach access. The section of the beach allotted for Secrest guests is very small and the fact that the umbrella and chair vendor sets up three rows regardless of whether they get rented or not takes up so much space on the beach, it was very difficult to find space if you brought your own chairs, which most houses in this neighborhood come with so why the vendor needs to set up so many doesn’t make sense and really takes away from the beach experience.

Family Vacation

We had an amazing vacation at Beyond the Sea 30A. It’s location was perfect, the home exceeded our expectations, and was comfortable for a relaxing time with family. Our adult children enjoyed the bikes, walking to restaurants, and the grandchildren loved the pool. We will definitely stay at Beyond the Sea again and recommend it for you and your family.

Wonderful Property! Wonderful Resort! Wonderful Vacation!

This property was awesome! We had 8 adults. The place was spacious, clean and extremely well equipped. Having all of the beach chair & umbrellas we needed was an added plus. We also enjoyed the 6 bikes they had. The Beach Tram service provided by the Seacrest Beach Resort was the icing on the cake. It was so convenient, timely and had plenty of room for the 8 of us and all of the beach stuff. The large pool at the Seacrest Resort is also an added plus. Very nice! We will definitely try to get this place again on our next family vacation to 30A.

Beautiful House

We enjoyed our stay here. The walk to the beach was about 8 minutes for adults...a few minutes longer with children ages 4-7. We mainly used the tram which arrived after a few minutes of waiting. The pool was just a couple minutes from the house. Convenient walk to several different restaurants, live music, beer/wine and ice cream which kept everyone happy. I should also note my gripes with the area. My only complaints had nothing to do with this home but was with some of the silly rules of the Seacrest neighborhood (only 1 point of entry into sand for beach shade, no drinks of any kind in the pool except clear bottles of water, adult swim). Also, the beach was very congested because, apparently, the beach area in front of beachfront homes is private property. All things considered, this was a great stay in a beautiful home. The space in the house was bigger than we expected based on pictures. There were tons of spices/oils/utensils/cookware which made it easy for the nights we stayed in. I would highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking to stay in this area.

Perfect for trip with our teens!

This property was absolutely perfect for our trip to 30A. Everything was exactly as represented. If anything, the house is under-represented, as there are so many things that are just perfect. The kitchen is stocked with virtually everything you could possibly need. Everything worked perfectly. The grill was great for the couple of nights that we cooked in. Beds were clean and comfortable. The entire house was spotless. It truly is set up to be lived in and I cannot think of one thing I would change about the layout or Decor/furniture. The tram stop is literally one house to the right when you walk out of the front door. The pool is a very short walk to the left (a couple of blocks). A short tram ride to the beach access will put you on one of the most beautiful beaches you’ll see in Florida. There are tons of restaurants and happy hour spots within walking/biking distance. The bikes, umbrellas, chairs, and all other extras all worked perfectly, and were in good condition. Parking was a breeze both in front and back, even during high season. Overall, I cannot say enough about this property. Sitting on the screened in porch with the ceiling fan going and music playing was absolutely perfect for each evening. I would go back to this house in a heartbeat! Communication was perfect.

Great place!!!

Three generations stayed and enjoy Beyond the Sea. The house was just as pictured - even better actually. So many nice touches … plenty of charging stations, beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys, games, high chair, bikes, great kitchen items (high quality too). The pool was a quick walk and much nicer than expected. The beach tram stopped just down from the house and was easy and convenient. We enjoyed walking up to the shops and restaurants. Pescados is a great place for cocktails and a beautiful view, Beach and Brews was fun for a beer and some music in the evenings. Loved the Farmers Market on Sunday and enjoyed exploring the nearby towns. We would definitely stay at Beyond the Sea again! Plenty of room when we wanted to all hang out/eat dinner together, but lots of options if we wanted space. All the porches were wonderful!

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Gaarder

Host profile image
We grew up in Minnesota and now live in Kansas. When our children were younger we loved going to the beach on vacation. We visited many beaches in many states, but the beaches in the Seacrest area are some of the best. That's why when Beyond the Sea became available we decided it would be an excellent home to invest in. We'd like you to know that we intend to keep Beyond the Sea the same great home that those of you who have stayed here before have come to know. For those of you who are thinking of visiting us for the first time, we hope you will find Beyond the Sea a special place to relax and unwind.

Why they chose this property

Our 2018 summer vacation was a family trip to Rosemary Beach with our children and grandchildren. We had an amazing time! We loved the warm clear water and sugar sand beach. We loved being able to walk to the restaurants and shops of Rosemary Beach. We knew this would be a wonderful place to make memories with family and friends. When looking for a rental property to invest in, Beyond the Sea caught our attention. The outstanding review history highlighting the distinctive way this property has been maintained impressed us.

What makes this property unique

Beyond the Sea is truly a unique property. We really love the open/spacious living area. The kitchen is set up perfectly for someone like me who likes to cook a few meals when on vacation. The screened porch off the kitchen is a nice surprise. We knew this would be the perfect house to have a family vacation at.

We love the charming feel of the Seacrest Beach neighborhood.
