LOCATION!
Walkable to Bahama Bob's, Hangout, so much more! Convenient to walk to ice cream, Island Outfitters, beverage store, Italian ice, and more! 10 minutes walk to the Hangout, 2 minutes to Bahama Bobs (we are West of Bahama Bobs). So close to everything, yet in your own private home, and... you get your own private heatable pool. No sharing unlike condos etc!

POOL?
You bet. Private heatable private pool. No sharing. BIG too: 26x15x3-5' Rectangle, and dded a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82-84' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a nightly surcharge that varies by season and is per night for length of stay (the 12 month range has been $65-85 depending on season) gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Simply request the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and any time up to at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too. The pool is beachside, in the sun, with an expansive deck area around it, PLUS a nice shaded and sheltered area to escape the heat, right under the home. Nice!

EXTRA FRIDGE
We added an extra full size fridge under the stairs in the entry by the kitchen. Because... you NEED two fridges when at the beach!

BEACH ACCESS
Beach access could not be easier! Walk outside and their is nothing between you and the beach except your own private pool. Its RIGHT there. Serious beach access, seriously right on the beach, and right in the middle of everything too!

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for as many vehicles as you should be reasonably bringing to a 5 bedroom. 8 cars? Sure. 10 maybe. But do you really need than many cars? 5-6 cars would have lots of room to spread out!

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home!? That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like? It is generally rock solid and ran > 250Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests "troubleshooting" it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a "starter supply" of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have drip coffee makers and most now have Keurigs as well.

PETS
We do consider well-behaved canine furry friends. This requires owner pre-approval, and is subject to a pet fee (currently $250 per pet). Please inquire. Subject to restrictions which often vary by season. Again, please inquire.

No smoking please, but feel free to eat lots of shrimp, bask in the warm sun, and have a great time!

This is the BEST place we've ever stayed! Right on the beach, management was quick to respond to any questions and the house is centrally located to main attractions. We booked our trip for next year before we left! [๐Ÿ™ Thank you so much Amy! "Best place ever!" that's high praise, and we really appreciate it. Always here for you if you all need anything. Glad we could hook you up with the return to our SeaRae next year too! Reach out if you need anything, or have any suggestions for the home, us, or our communication. Best wishes for the rest of 2024 (and beyond!).]

Sea-Rae is a great place to spend your beach vacation! Nestled between two multi-level condos, it provides a sanctuary for families that like to be around people but not too close to them. My husband and I were amused when we realized that was how we felt after a couple of days. The home is comfortable and clean but do be ready to bring/buy cleaning supplies, PT, TP, garbage bags and such. That info is spelled out in the emails sent prior to arrival. There are grocery stores nearby if you do need to stock up. Loved the free standing ice machine, that was just a great little perk! The beds are comfortable, the showers are tight. Nice to have w/d so you donโ€™t have to pack so many clothes. The pictures show the rooms are painted bright colors but they must have just finished updating because everything was neutral. Loved several of the wall art! The home is right on the beach so we could take breaks if you were hungry or too hot. The pool was nice but was much too warm during the heat of the day, it was August. We opted to have beach chairs and umbrellas set up for us by Ikeโ€™s Beach Service who were very pleasant and attentive. The driveway was huge with lots of parking, it was a bit hard to find when we got there but it was dark which made it a little challenging. We took short walks to restaurants and stores. We had such a great vacation and will definitely keep this home in our rotation!

Quoting my 5-year-old grandson after our second full day at SeaRea, โ€œCan we live here all summer?โ€ We had a wonderful week on a great property. Beach access and the private pool were a big hit with everyone. The rooms were clean and comfortable. There was plenty of room for everyone in the main living area. Televisions in all the rooms were a bonus for a couple of family members who brought their gaming consoles. With having a group of 12 people that included a 13-month-old, eating at restaurants is difficult. Knowing that, we originally planned on getting dinner take-out but discovered that many of the local restaurants did not offer take-out during peak time, i.e. after 3pm. The two refrigerators, though, came in handy, allowing us to get take-out at lunch and extra for dinner. The ice makers provided ample supply of ice for everyone. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, looking at the gulf early in the morning and late in the evening.

Our family and friends (10 total) can't say enough good things about this beach home! Location is perfect. Parking ample. Home is immaculate and view of beach and pool from back deck is amazing! The pool is clean and water a perfect temp. We just returned and no heater needed. If we were nitpicking, we might suggest some Tupperware type containers be stocked for storing food in fridge. Most VRBOs we have stayed at have them. Also, the coffee maker in the kitchen is not a Keurig so note that if bringing coffee from home. Having two refrigerators is a very smart idea for large groups. Check-in and Check-out very easy and communication with the rental agency is spot on! Any question was answered immediately. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a wonderful vacation where the beach is just a few steps away!!!!!
