Great Stay!
We had a fantastic stay! The house was very clean and well stocked. It was super easy to get to the beach and the pool was even closer. We loved that it is a smaller neighborhood. We would definitely stay again!
We loved the easy check in and digital key code to get in and out of the house. The overall home was set up perfect for all of our needs. Would love to use this same property again. The price was fair and communication was wonderful.

Loved it!
Clean, nice and it had everything we needed. Short distance to the beach and the community pool.
We will be definitely coming back!
Our family loved staying here! The five bikes and completely stocked kitchen were such great amenities! Literally any utensil or appliance needed, they have stocked. The decor was perfect, not outdated at all. Super easy bike ride to the beach. The kids enjoyed the 2 community pools being nearby. Overall we had a blast, loved the location, loved all the vegetation surrounding the houses in the neighborhood. We wouldn’t mind staying in the same home again, next time we come to town!
Overall very nice condo, the walk to the beach was a little longer than we would have liked especially carrying beach chairs, ice chests, etc, there are about 50 stairs to climb down to get to the beach so a wagon is not an option. The bikes were a huge hit with our kids and a lot of fun.
Great property for our family of six's first beach vacation. Check in and communication with the management company was very easy. The layout of the house was so intentional and beach user friendly. We were able to maximize our time at the beach and relaxing together as a family. Initially, we did find the beach access a little tricky (again we are very new to this area). A local was able to point us to a public beach entrance that was only 30 yards away that was easier for our family to use and had a washing station. The house had everything we needed. I appreciate the access not only to the bike and beach chairs but there were many other smaller items that made our beach time even better. The kitchen had plenty of room and nice appliances. Also, there were adequate towels for us to use our entire stay so my time was not used up doing laundry.

We are so happy to hear about your wonderful vacation! This home truly has everything you need for a simple, relaxing beach vacation! From the fully appointed kitchen, to the perfect location, this property has it all! Thank you for choosing BeachWalk Vacations!
We came for a girls weekend. The house had everything we needed. TONS of beach supplies. Tons in the kitchen. Tons of towels. Super convenient location. Sweet quiet neighborhood. Great to have a pool. Just can't think of a single complaint. Would love to come back.
Overall we were very happy with the house. Great layout and location. However, we had no WiFi our whole stay. We hoped it would be resolved while we were there but it wasn’t. Apparently the owner is aware but has yet to deal with it. It was a big negative for us - we stream all of our shows plus internet access is just a necessity these days.
We had a wonderful vacation with our family. We have 3 young kids (5, 5, & 2). We really enjoyed the covered patio, layout of the house, and the quiet neighborhood. The bunk beds would be better for older kids...the ladder was very steep and the guard rail was low. The pool was walkable from this home, but we found it easier to drive to the public access beach point with all of the kids and stuff. It was a quick 1 minute drive. The house was very well stocked and beautifully decorated. There were 2 closets large enough to fit a pack-n-play, and this home could have easily been shared by 2 families. The home is in a great location--easy to explore Seaside through Rosemary beach.

Great time, few problems
The rental home was perfect for our group. We had a great time, enjoyed the bikes, beach chairs, etc.
My one issue was that the pool that we did not have access to was the one advertised in the booking. When we called to let the property manager know we could not get in the pool they informed us of the error. However, Allie did nothing to accomodate us and ended up hanging up on me. I felt that was unprofessional and misrepresentation of the amenities.

I was locked out of the home not once, but twice during my stay. The first time (the first night) they were able to give me a different code to use for the remainder of my stay but then three days later, that one stopped working. I was locked out with my three young children for nearly three hours in the hot Florida sun with no where to go since my car keys were also in the home. I was told that day that a supervisor will be looking over my stay once I checkout and I will be compensated for what happened. No one is answering my emails, responding to my text messages, or returning my phone calls over the compensation that a worker told me that I would receive.

TRASH AND FLY PRECENCE
The location was fantastic, the house was clean and perfect for our stay. The trash outside had not been picked for days and make the outside smell, with numerous flies that ended escaping to the house whenever we opened the door for entry or exit. The barbeque area has not lighting, making it hard to barbecue in darkness. They offered me a golf cart that could not go over 26 miles/hour, making it hard for me to ride around the neighborhood to see the place. Was too slow on the roads and I couldn't use it to the Publix store to shop for a few groceries. Nice location nevertheless.

Hi Job!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent stay at Seas the Day. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the fantastic location and found the house clean and perfect for your stay.
We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered during your visit. We’re sorry to hear about the trash situation. Had this been reported to our team, we would have been more than happy to send someone out to address it promptly.
Regarding the golf cart, we want to clarify that it is designed to go up to 27 miles per hour. While it’s a convenient amenity for a beach stay, it’s not intended to replace the need for a vehicle.
We also appreciate your feedback on the barbecue area lighting. We’ll look into making adjustments to ensure it’s better lit for future guests.
Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We would love to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another visit in the future with BeachWalk Vacations!

Quiet Retreat
Our family of 6 enjoyed our week-long stay at this rental. (Yes, it has been painted, so now it's a mossy green color.) We were able to walk across the street to get to the beach (about a 5-7 minute walk) or walk right down to the neighborhood pool. The beds were comfortable and the home was spacious. Washer and dryer were a huge plus, as well as a full kitchen. Our only snag was the dishwasher, which leaked. The rental agency offered to have it fixed immediately, but we declined as we weren't going to use it anymore that week. Seaside is a short drive up 30A and Panama City Beach is about 20 minutes in the other direction. We did spend a bit of time driving to one or the other, but that wasn't a huge drawback. Easy to message the rental company and they responded right away.

We are thrilled to hear your family enjoyed your time at Magnolia Cottages! We apologize for any inconveniences experienced during your vacation. Although we never wish for a guest to encounter inconveniences, BeachWalk's goal is to resolve any inconveniences timely and professionally. The dishwasher has been repaired and we can ensure all future guests will enjoy a wonderful vacation in our beautiful home, Seas the Day at Magnolia Cottages!
At the time of check-in, we had no working television and no functional Wi-Fi. We spent our entire trip trying to manage the repair process as we needed to work from the property and Wifi was promised. Neither the Owner nor the property managers responded with any sense of urgency despite our many attempts at communication. It was treated as a flippant problem. Would not stay in this property or any other managed by Beachwalk vacations again.
Beautiful home! Screened in porch and upper deck were so nice to have-we used them daily. Four kids stayed in the kid bunk bed room with a TV and it was perfect for them! Bathrooms were very nice -especially the master. The kitchen was nice and it worked fine. There was not a lot of countertop space. Kitchen was stocked with dinnerware, Tupperware, and utensils. There was absolutely nothing else-no spices, olive oil, ziploc baggies, butter or ketchup or mustard or any condiments. It would have been nice to have had those things stocked-we needed all of them and bought new and only using a little of each. All kitchen and home appliances worked well.
There were plenty of bath towels and enough detergent for washing dishes and clothes. If you stay here-you must bring your own beach towels. There was a shed with sand toys, 4 beach chairs, and a beach umbrella which was broken and that was a big bummer.
The pool is about a 3 minute walk from the house and the beach is about a 5 minute walk. We loved that!! We didn’t need to rent a golf cart bc it was so close. The beach was absolutely beautiful-white powdery sand, clear blue water, light waves (easy for kids to get in and play in). The house has access to a private beach walk that is right across the street but it takes you to a private part of the beach so you have to walk down a ways to post up. It’s better to use the sidewalk to walk further to the public entrance. Less trudging thru sand carrying all the beach gear.
Home away from feel! The unit has everything one could need for a beach trip for a multi- generational family. While not an issue for us, please note that the stairs for the beach access are steep and may pose access problems for some. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
