My husband, myself, and our 3 kids ranging in age from 2-10 along with my sisters and 2 of their kids joined us for this much anticipated trip to Watercolor and this house literally had everything we could have needed. I had read a previous review that said you only need to bring clothes and they were right. We rented a few bike trailers and a few kids bikes to go along with the adult bikes that come with the property. We arrived to a lovely, perfectly clean, and well stocked home. There was plenty of space for everyone and we enjoyed watching kids play games or watch movies in the living room while making dinner. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with everything from spices to cooking oils, pots/pans, etc. We loved the independent ice maker which was a hit when preparing water bottles and coolers for beach and pool days.
The house had everything from towels to beach chairs to beach toys to inflatables to boogie boards, frisbees, soccer balls, etc. everything we could want or need to make the beach fun was there. We just loaded them in the back of the bike trailers and rode to the beach in a bike caravan. We loved biking through Watercolor and I think it was one of the kids favorite parts. We would bike right to Watercolor Beach Club and park the bikes in the garage and walk right out onto the beach.
In terms of the pool- the home comes with access to all of Watercolors pools and there are several- we never even made it to all of them. Frog Pool is just steps from the home and it ended up being our favorite.
Rich, the owner, was extremely helpful and quick to respond with all of our questions leading up to the trip and was available if we needed anything during our stay. He was very accommodating to any needs we had.
We found the location to be perfect! the 30A strip is so busy this time of year so it was so nice to be tucked back over the Western Lake Bridge- away from the busyness but an easy ride to the beach.
This was our 3rd trip to 30A- we stayed in Seaside last year and I have to say I prefer the peaceful nature vibe of Watercolor to Seaside but its close enough to ride into Seaside to shop or visit the food trucks.
Thank you Rich and Sandy for sharing your beautiful home with us- it was such a treat!
