Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
I would rent again. Honest review:
PRO’s
Location: perfect
House: very clean
Sleeping quarters: nice
Amenities: great, bikes available!
Outdoor area: could be neater
Laundry: good, downside-you have to go outside to access it, but worked very well.
CON’s
Stairs: spiral and a little dicey (steep)
Issues were out of their control, dishwasher wasn’t working first 2-3 days. Septic tank clogged and water flooded a bedroom. Ceiling in ground floor was pretty low and stairs to 2nd floor (living area) were very steep. They had a gate at top which helped keep little ones off stairs. The location was great and the outside shower was amazing.
Close to the seaside shops. Very close to the beach!!! It felt like home in a resort location.
Very quaint property. Driveway room enough for 2 cars. BBQ, fire pit, outside shower/rinse. Max 4 people for comfort.
We would definitely stay here again!!!
Great experience!!!

Privacy, Luxury, Convenience
My grown children and I went for a week. The house is beautifully furnished and maintained. We enjoyed the privacy of the location: yet it's still so close to lots of activity. We ate wonderful meals at the local restaurants and enjoyed shopping at the stores in Seaside. Everything we wanted to do was made easy by our choice of rental property.We are going to make this an annual tradition! You'll be more than pleased!

Immaculate cottage, Perfect location
Visited in October and was pleasantly surprised by the cottage. I guess because the price is so reasonable for the area, I assumed it wouldn't be as nice. The decor is so inviting and comfortable. The outdoor shower was my husbands favorite and he bathed outdoors for an entire week. The porch is a dream for morning coffee and evening cocktails. It's location is PERFECT for walking or bike riding to Seaside and Seagrove stores and restaurants. Hoping to make this cottage an annual trip.

Reviewer Comments:
I love the upstairs of this home, with the living, kitchen area upstairs opening to a deck with sliding glass doors. All of it updated and beautifully decorated. Plenty of room for our family of four. The downstairs was a little cramped, with only one bathroom, and small bedrooms. We would have preferred a king bed. But the location was great, close to beach and Seaside. Also bikes and chairs provided.

This was the perfect house for our all girls weekend reunion! This small treasure is perfect if you are looking for cute and quaint! As a repeat 30A vacationer, you can't beat the location. Beach access is literally across the road. Easy bike to Seaside Market. The downstairs is a bit tight - but it was perfect for 5 sorority sisters! There are two showers but no washer and dryer. Upstairs is spacious and adorable. Great covered porch for relaxing and catching up with cocktails!

Yay for a girls trip! Thank you for sharing your time at the cottage, and we are delighted you all had a wonderful time. There is a laundry room in the home, with a full size washer and dryer. It is on the back of the house with a separate entrance. Information is included in the check in packet about the location, and we are sad you missed the information. Glad you had a fantastic week and we look forward to your return with us in the near future.
We loved this little gem. We love this area but did not want to pay for the rentals in the Watercolor area because my family would not use the pool & other amenities the club offers. The beach is literally 4 houses away. It was an easy walk to the heart of Seaside. We rode the bikes that were provided by the host a lot. The only thing about this place is that the bathroom/shower situation is a little unconventional, but it works. There is a half bath upstairs with the living room/kitchen. Downstairs are 3 BR's with one toilet & a combo tub/shower & then a separate shower only. The toilet & tub are in one room & the shower is separated by a pocket door. Pretty ingenious to have this all work. Otherwise - very clean & SUPER SUPER location. We would definitely stay here again.

Blue Paradise is a quaint, smaller home right on the outskirts of Seaside in Seagrove. My daughter recently had knee surgery and I was concerned about her ability to walk or bike any longer distances. Blue Paradise is literally a 5 minute walk to the shore itself, and that's if you're strolling. The convenience to the beach and all the amenities in Seaside is incredibly good. We loved the decor and homey feeling of the house. At one point, there were 6 of us and bathroom space was a bit tight. We used every bit of space and all the extras including the outdoor hot shower every day, the laundry room and the bikes. The house takes advantage of every square foot it has, even a comfy second-story porch outside. We thoroughly enjoyed it!

We are so glad this home was a good fit for you, your daughter, and your family. We are grateful you were able to take full advantage of this home and its convenient location to all the area has to offer. We hope you will choose Exclusive 30A for your next vacation!
This little house fit our needs, and then some. It is in a great location with great access to the beach and the town center. To get to the beach, you walk past 3 houses to the main road, turn left and walk past 1 house, cross the main road at a marked crosswalk, walk down the access stairs, and your feet are in the sand! If you turn right at the main road, it is a short 1-2 minute walk to the town center. The house was very clean. I had a minor question about the outside trash can situation, and Krista was quick to respond. I had a question about the remotes to control the television (I am technically challenged), and Cheryl quickly came by to show me how to properly use them. So, if you have any questions or need some help, they are on top of it quickly, and both are very nice. The house is surrounded by plants, bushes, and trees, so that provides some nice privacy. The upstairs outside porch in the front of the house was a nice place to sit around in the early evening. The house does have a tricky set of stairs, so that needs to be a consideration if you have very small children or the elderly in your party. However, it was not a concern for us. I would strongly recommend this house for its cleanliness, location, and prompt support from the property managers should you need it.
The property is in a fabulous location. Close to Seaside and beach access. The one bathroom downstairs was a challenge but the outdoor shower was great as an alternative! We absolutely loved our week!
Other than the construction which did start pretty early one of our mornings everything was great ! Can’t beat the location ! Quick walk To beach and restaurants ! The house had everything we needed and more .

Great Value for Location
This property is a great value for the location alone! Less than a block to beach access and only 3 blocks to Seaside town square. We fit 4 comfortably, any more may be a tighter squeeze. House was equipped with everything we needed.

Great house and location
Cute house with a great location. The owner of Kisemet had to come out to help
With a couple of things nothing major (lock on laundry room bc if the salt in the air) was so
Nice and quick. Great size for our family
I would consider renting this property again. Some minor suggestions: Replace the rug in hallway, tripping hazard, can't close the bedroom door. Shower curtains are too dark & bulky, use clear vinyl curtains. Need light in shower & tub. The stairs are very steep and dangerous. Add more hand railings. Clean out the coffee maker, it's nasty. The towels have a sour smell to them, not dried all the way? Smaller lamps on the night stands. No place to put toiletries in bathroom so you need the space on night stands. These are minor suggestions.
Thank you
Blue Dream is an original gem that harkens back to the original feel of Seaside. It is a small house surrounded by new larger construction. We were impressed with the convenience of this location to the beach, and to the town of Seaside. We loved the second floor great room, and the convenience of an upstairs bathroom. The kitchen was well appointed, although we did not cook during our stay, opting instead to visit the many excellent area restaurants.
The winder stairway could be a challenge to some people. The construction across the street was unpleasant at times, mostly because of trucks and heavy equipment on the street. Fortunately, as of mid February 2022, it appears that this new construction is on its way to completion.
This property is clean, comfortable, and above all, convenient to the beach, Seaside, and the Emerald Coast on Highway 30a. We hope to return soon.
