About this apartment rental
*** Besides being on the Gulf and having incredible gulf views from throughout the condo and the 2 balconies, several of the most appreciated features by guests are being able to walk right off your family room balcony stairs to the stairs to the beach to our LARGE PRIVATE BEACH for only 18 units. We have a person onsite to keep the beach private for our guests and owners. I cover the cost for a beach service umbrella, 2 beach chairs and a side table that are set up early each morning. $180 value. :)
New for Golfers - Access to 2 Championship courses and an executive course. See below, if interested.
We completed a $2M renovation to our 18-unit building in early 2023. It looks fantastic! I have also significantly upgraded the condo. I removed all of the carpets throughout both condos and replacing them with LVP. Now there is travertine and LVP throughout the condo. A new very nice king bedroom set in the master with a new iCloud very comfortable king mattress and box spring. I also added a 55-inch TV in the master. I have a new kitchen refrigerator as well. I cover the cost for a beach service umbrella, 2 chairs and a side table that will be set up for you early each day. I have not had time to schedule a professional photographer to take pictures of all the great changes to the building and condo. You are going to LOVE the beach umbrella/chair service and the very private beach :) BE SURE TO READ THE POSTED GUEST REVIEWS
Thank you for considering my condo. :) It is a such a fun place for a beach front Gulf vacation. It is colorful and decorated so that you will feel like you are away and at the beach. It is quite spacious, very comfortable, great Gulf views and in a great location along 30A. My hope is that after a couple of days you will feel like you are home and that you have one of your best, most relaxing and fun family beach vacations. Over the past 10+ years I have dozens of families that have been back numerous times.
I own 2 similar condos in the small18 unit complex. My other one is property 123162. They are equally as nice. I try to be always available to answer any questions or respond to any need. A few unique and much appreciated features of my condo(s) are: We have a large private deeded beach for only 18 units. Our fantastic beach service provider is onsite and maintains the beach for Blue Tide guests use exclusively. Our beach is much more private than the beaches at Seaside, Watercolor, Seagrove, Seacrest Beach (we are Seacrest), Rosemary Beach. Another feature really enjoyed by guests is you can walk right off the family room balcony steps to the steps to the beach. No need to go our front, down hallways, around the building or down an elevator. Families love the convenience. Because I have owned for over 12 years, I offer very good pricing when compared to comparable Gulf front properties. I cover the cost of a beach umbrella, 2 chairs and a side table that is set up for you early each day ($180/wk. value). It is SO convenient to have them set up and ready whenever you go to the beach. We have a large private beach for only 18 units and someone on site to keep it private for guests. Check out the picture of just 1/2 of our beach with the single row of orange umbrellas. Look next to our beach and you will see an area of about 25 yards that serves over100 homes from across the street. Hard to find and hard to beat :) If your week is booked, be sure to check out my other equally nice, similar condo at the blue Tide. VRBO 123162. Owned by Brad Bridges

I believe and hope you will share these feelings after staying here. The Gulf can be mesmerizing! Blue Tide 7B, in Seacrest, Florida, is a beautifully decorated 3-bedroom condo (including the loft), 3 full baths, 2 balconies overlooking the amazing Gulf of Mexico, is very spacious at 1950 Sq. ft. The beaches have been voted as one of the best of 'Americas Beaches'. The condo is located on scenic 30-A, 2 miles west of Rosemary Beach and 3/4 mile from Alys Beach on the eastern end of 30A (less crowded). The townhouse is fully furnished to make you feel at home when you stay there. It is located on a bike trail that runs the length of 30A - 17 miles. Riding east on 30A you have Alys Beach, Seacrest Beach and Rosemary Beach within 2 1/2 miles with very interesting shops and places to eat. This is a lot of fun for families. Bikes can be rented and delivered to the condo. You will enjoy the incredible panoramic views to the east and west from the 2 private balconies of the sugar white sand and emerald, green water of the gulf. It is truly breathtaking. There is nothing more beautiful and relaxing than sitting on one of the balconies in the morning enjoying coffee and/or breakfast or in the evening looking at the gulf and listening to the waves. The condo is designed so the sun never comes directly into the condo, and no one can see in (very private), so you never need to close the drapes and can enjoy the great Gulf views from the master, kitchen, dining area and family room all day long. Sun-up to sun set. There is a private pool on-site. The condo offers 2 large bedrooms with comfortable king size beds and full baths attached. There is a loft with 2 single beds. The loft is semi-private and like a retreat for children, teenagers and maybe young single adults. Because it is semi-private and does not have a bath attached, it might not be best suited for couples. There is a 3rd full bath on the main floor. There is also a new pullout queen size sleeper sofa. The family room has 2 new comfortable swivel chairs with another chair and a queen sofa. It has a 55-inch smart TV with cable and high definition on channels 800 to about 850. Each bedroom and loft have smart TVs. The master bedroom has a vanity area between the bedroom and bathroom for a little more privacy. It also has a large walk-in travertine shower with a regular and overhead rain shower head. Very relaxing. There is free fast speed wireless internet. The condo comes with a fully equipped kitchen, seating for 6 around the large dining table and a breakfast bar with 3 seats. Both the master and family room have double sliding glass doors that open to balconies with seating and tables. Linens, towels and washcloths and a washer/dryer are provided. There is a private pool for guests and owners. The Blue Tide has about 200 linear feet of private gulf frontage. There are only 18 units in this quaint, quiet, family friendly complex. It provides a wonderful atmosphere for a fantastic vacation and a place to create lifelong fond memories. I have so many guests that have been back 3 and 4 times. Many say they treasure their time spent at the Blue Tide and can't wait to get back. I feel the same way. I think you would as well. There are 2 grills in front of the complex next the parking lot for use. There are county laws preventing grilling on the balcony or behind the complex. Sorry, NO PETS and NO Smoking or Vaping allowed. No smoking inside the townhouse or on the balcony.
New SEER 16 HVAC system. Included is an RGF Air Purification System that uses an Advanced Oxidation Technology that kills 99.99% of surface bacteria/viruses, 99% of microbes in a human sneeze is killed at 3 ft. and adds much more air purification (REME-HALO).
For Golfers - I m a member of the Watersound Club and with that, as a guest of mine, you would have access to their 2 Championship golf courses and a short executive course. Camp Creek Golf course is rated in the top 2 % of private courses in the U.S. and is less than 2 miles away. Sharks Tooth Golf Club, another championship course, is about 15-20 minutes away. Origins, the short executive course in about 15 minutes away. The cost to play Camp Creek or Sharks Tooth is $250 plus taxes. Origins cost is $50 plus tax. Reservations would need to be made in advance (up to 30 days) through me. Incredibly beautiful courses and scenery.

The townhouse was a perfect fit for our family of 6. Access to the beach and beach chairs was amazing. The location of the townhouse was perfect for biking to The Big Chill, Alys Beach and Rosemary. We had a wonderful family vacation

We had the most amazing stay at Brad’s condo! The place is WAY bigger than it appears in the photos and has two king beds, two twin beds, and a pull out sofa. The views of the gulf are unbeatable and we loved watching the sunrise/sunset from the balcony every day! Having the private beach was a huge plus especially if you want to avoid crowds. Will definitely be staying again!!

If you are looking for spacious accommodations, beautiful views, a beautiful private beach and the ability to save some money by preparing some of your meals in house then look no further, 7B is exactly what you need.
Our stay was perfect! We are a group of 6 friends celebrating a milestone birthday. We had been lucky enough to stay for a full 7 days and take advantage of the private beach and utilize the kitchen quite a bit. You will need to grab a few items from the grocery store, which is no big deal as there is a Publix just a few min drive away and they also deliver.
The property is in a very convenient spot, between Rosemary Beach and Seacrest Beach, both have lots of shops and eateries and a few options in between. Every morning we were able to get our daily steps in on the beach and enjoy the powder soft sand and clear turquoise water. I cannot stress how perfect and quiet the private beach is for the Blue Tide guests, it is magical, and we felt like royalty.
One morning we were able to see a school of dolphins passing by, as if they were showing us their moves jumping out of the water. The views from the balconies are breathtaking. The king beds are super comfortable and the temperature control in the unit made for a great night’s sleep. We enjoyed every minute, coffee on the balcony, reading on the beach, comfortable down time playing cards, and watching movies, it was exactly what we needed to relax and recharge.
Brad was friendly and thorough in his communications and recommendations. He was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had, you can tell he takes pride in the condo and the surrounding area. We all agree, we would 100% return to this area, this beach, this condo again if given the chance.
Only thing we would change is 1. planning our meals in advance, this way we could be more efficient with our grocery store runs since the kitchen was so well stocked and we ended up cooking and staying in more than dining out. 2. We would have rented bikes for the week; they are inexpensive and would have allowed us to venture out to explore as the area is very bike and pedestrian friendly. 3. we would have packed less, the unit’s washer and dryer are very large and efficient.
Brad, you are the best, thank you for everything!

We had the very best time in October on our yearly trip. We have been coming down to this area for years and always like to stay around between The Hub and Alys Beach. We had the very best experience with the condo, the location and communication with the owner. The beach chairs are an added bonus! We have already booked for next year and can't wait for another week in our favorite spot!

My family and I stayed a week at Brad's beautiful condo. It was our first major trip with our young daughter. We really enjoyed the ease of access to the beach and the views from the two decks. The location was very family friendly and we never felt crowded on the beach. The two chairs, umbrella, and drink tray provided with the property were an added bonus. The condo was very close to everything we needed (shopping, food, etc). Brad was extremely generous and helpful throughout our stay. We hope to visit this property again in the future!

Brad was great! He communicated well before the trip and checked on us pretty quickly after arrival. The townhouse was everything we wanted and needed. The balcony was my favorite spot. I could’ve sat there all day and listened to the waves. The beach chairs were just steps away from the stairs down to the beach. The bedrooms had great beds and plenty of space. Our family enjoyed this little piece of heaven and plan to return soon!

The condo was perfect. The beach was even better.
The condo was perfect but the beach was even better! It was quiet and private. It was the perfect location. We loved our stay in 7B and will be back! The owner was very thoughtful and would randomly check in to make sure everything was perfect and to our liking ! Thanks for all the memories !

Brad was great
Brad was a great host! He was very communicative and prompt in responding to our questions. You could tell he cared about our experience. The location was amazing and close to everything. We loved being able to walk out the back balcony to the beach. We were happy to have beach chair setup included. There was a ton of space. We have an infant and they were able to nap and not hear anything that was happening downstairs. We appreciated the blackout curtains for his nap. We loved the upstairs balcony from the master bedroom. Both balconies had a great view. We were happy to have a pool if we couldn’t go in the ocean due to red flags. A new washer and dryer were just installed and were quiet and washed our delicates great. Thank you for a great trip!

Simply the best
Cue Tina Turner...”Simply the best! Better than all the rest!” Brad’s property is simply outstanding, 10 stars across the board. Brad makes sure everything is seamless and doesn’t skip a beat. His communication is top notch, anytime we had a question he was there. The washer was awaiting a part and he paid for our laundry door to door service. We felt like VIPs! Talk about awesome, Brads the best...better than all the rest!! Can’t wait to be back!

Blue tide is definitely our vacation spot for years to come. We just left from Seacrest yesterday and we will definitely be coming back. Brad Bridges who owns our townhouse is a great guy to work with. He made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay! Great property, great owner! 5 plus stars!

Amazing property!
My family and I stayed last week in Brad’s condo. The beach is very close to the property. There are two balconies overlooking the beautiful water. The kids loved hanging out in their “secret hideout” on the third floor. They loved sleeping in the loft area on the third floor. The condo is very spacious with the kitchen and living area on the bottom floor and all bedrooms on the second and third floors. There are dual shower heads in the master bedroom that is great after a day at the beach. There is plenty of hot water in the condo!
Brad was very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen is fully stocked with all pots, pans, margarita and wine glasses, and any utensils you will need for cooking and having drinks.
The beach was not crowded at all. We were able to sit right in front of the ocean without anyone or anything blocking our view. You can’t put a price on the view and location that this condo provides. We will be booking again!

Brad was the most attentive host I’ve ever encountered. His place was “as promised” and as expected from the pictures. It was roomy and he has another property in this small complex that is convenient if traveling with another family. Great beach access and location.We really enjoyed our week there and would rent with Brad again!

Better than the pictures
Although the pictures for this site are lovely, the reality does not compare. The reality is so much BETTER. The condo is larger than it looks in the pictures. We had 6 adults there and all were comfortable and never crowded. The view is amazing. Access to the beach could not be better. Right off the balcony. Granted this is the part of 30A where anywhere you stay there is a number of steps to get down to the beach - great for exercise! The property owner was easy to deal with, gracious when we contacted him, etc. If your idea of a vacation it to stay on the beach, you can't find a better place. We will be back.

Seacrest Condo
Location outstanding, but you will want to be in a good shape to handle the 40+ steps i’ve been down to the beach. The property manager was Fantastic in communicating and handling all concerns. The kitchen is very well stocked although we did suggest a little re-organization of the cabinets. We had a great time overall but we were a little put off initially as it appeared the cleaning crew did not do the kind of job we were expecting. We don’t want to discourage anyone from staying here because as I said we really had a great time, I just hope the property manager can perhaps convince the owners that the condo needs some updating.

Perfect Beach Destination!
We absolutely loved staying at Blue Tide 7B. The condo met our expectations and we can’t wait to come back. It’s more spacious than we originally thought. The kitchen was well equipped with all our needs. Our family of 5 really enjoyed our stay. King beds were so comfortable, felt so good to rest after swimming all day. I sat out on the master balcony every morning and night. So relaxing! Seacrest Beach isn’t overcrowded at all. I feel vacation should be relaxing and this is the place to be!!!!

Breathtaking Views!
If you want to stay right on the beach with amazing views, this is where you want to be! The pictures do not do it justice. It is right on the beach and has two balconies looking down to the emerald green waters. The beach is not as crowded as Destin and the chairs and umbrella have a front row view. Having the access from the balcony was also great. Easy peasy with kids. The condo was very spacious and the 3 bedrooms were extra large. The kids loved the upstairs loft, but it really seemed more like their own private oasis. Three bathrooms was also really nice. We mostly enjoyed the beach and local seafood restaurants, but we went one day on a dolphin/shell island tour in Panama City Beach--that was amazing! The condo had everything we needed and we hope we can come again soon! It was the best and most relaxing vacation ever.

Beautiful view of the Gulf
This unit is very spacious and comfortable, and we really enjoyed looking at the beautiful shore birds and dolphins. Walking on the beach and staring at the water is the sort of R&R we were looking for.

Beautiful family friendly retreat-must see!
This town home was much larger than we expected & easily accommodated our family of 5. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped & the view was amazing! Easy access to the beach via the sliding glass doors on the main level made our daily trips down quick & simple. The daily chair/umbrella set up included was a definite bonus-we even took advantage of the additional setup at the owners discounted rate. Based on his recommendation, we tried out a few local places & they were all a definite treat: The Perfect Pig (best bacon ever!), The Hub (great family friendly environment), Goatfeathers (amazing fresh seafood to cook yourself), Donut Hut (our kiddos loved the treat) to name a few.
Everyone knows renting for a beach get away means you need to provide your own meals, but here are a few items we didn't think about when we stopped at Publix before check-in & had to go back out: laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, scrubbers for dishes, paper towels, any/all cooking spices, coffee filters (standard round shape-our home coffee maker uses cone shape), cleaning supplies for during your stay, trash can liners, toilet paper (1 roll per bathroom was provided), charcoal (2 grills out front are very nice)...hoping this will make others packing/planning a little bit easier as we just weren't as prepared as we thought!
Communication with Brad, the owner, was seamless. He was incredibly attentive before we arrived and thankfully, we did not have to contact him at all during our weeklong stay. Our children really enjoyed the pool multiple times when they were tired of fighting waves & sand in their trunks.
Starting the day with a cup of coffee on the deck or ending it with a glass of wine in the same spot...we did both & it was bliss. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spot of 30-A!

DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE- TRULY BEAUTIFUL
My family and I had a wonderful vacation in this condo. It was the perfect location for relaxation and the views couldn't be beat. We felt like we had so much privacy and the condo was beautifully decorated, and we felt right at home. We saw dolphins every day & even a stingray! It was an unforgettable trip. I highly recommend!!!!!

Great place for a family!
We took my 3 children (ages 7, 4, and 2) and my parents to this condo. None of us wanted to leave! Besides the amazing views and beautiful white sand beaches and clear water, the location could not be beat! We brought bikes and had access to many of the areas amenities, including The Hub (restaurants and outdoor movies/music) and Alys/Rosemary Beach areas where there are plenty of dining and shopping options. The condo itself was clean and spacious and well-decorated, and the loft area was perfect for my two older children to share (the main master suite had plenty of room for a pack-and-play for my youngest). All beds were incredibly comfortable. Both bedrooms had attached bathrooms which was very convenient for travelling with other couples, and the downstairs full bathroom was a nice bonus. The pool was never crowded and made for a nice break from the beach or for an evening swim. Additionally, the beach was never crowded. We look forward to staying here again! The only suggestion I would make would be smaller furniture on the balconies, as the furniture there now is quite large and hard to maneuver around, at times, and also hard for little ones to sit on. Great place!!

The best!
Our week in this condo will be a hard one to top. The sky and water were fabulous and being able to view all from both balconies of this condo made it spectacular. The condo was clean and spacious and quiet even though all units appeared to be occupied all week. The walk to the beach is a short one and even the stairs were minimal compared to other places we've stayed. Access begins right off the main level balcony with stairs leading to the boardwalk in the well manicured lawn. Landscape is well mantained and part of the view.
The owner checked in with us via this site and when the blender refused to work, he sent a brand new one to us within hours. We appreciated the little things like hangers in the closets, loads of drawer spaces, and a coded front door that eliminates keeping up with keys.
The front door opens to a stairway and foyer that serves as extra personal space for this condo (not shared). The foyer is appointed with a cute beach theme that offers plenty of open space for storing anything from kids' bikes, extra coolers, empty luggage, paper goods, etc. and still does not impede entrance. The loft room on the third level is marketed as being great for kids, and while that's true, it worked fine for two young women in their mid 20's. It is open to the landing but allows for plenty of room to spread out and still offer privacy. The AC worked well throughout the condo, keeping even the top floor cool through out our stay. Two full baths on the second level (bedroom floor), one opening to both hall and street side bedroom, were enough facilities for 4 women. And there's always the full bath on the main floor if needed. The beach-side master bath has two sinks with one being located outside the shower/toilet area. This one comes with a large counter space and was the one preferred by the young women in our group who were sleeping in the loft. Especially since the large walk-in shower comes with rain shower heads and corner seats. The kitchen is well stocked, and while may be a bit tight if more than one or two cooks are working together, it has a large attached island with bar seating on one side. Plenty of seating at the large dining table and comfortable sofa and chairs for movie watching at night or curling up with a good book in the spacious den. We will definitely consider this place again for future stays and know that we will have to plan soon as I'm sure it will be fully booked by next summer.

Beautiful Gulf Condo!
My wife and I along with our two young children had an amazing stay here. The location is absolutely perfect. We rode our bikes to Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach, Seagrove, etc. The weather in April was fantastic, we were able to sleep with the glass doors open so we could hear the ocean each night. The beach was not crowded at all. This condo has spectacular gulf views from both the main balcony as well as the master bedroom balcony. You can walk down the steps from the balcony to the lawn which overlooks the beach and makes a gorgeous spot to watch the sunset each evening. From there, you are just a few feet away from the steps that take you down to the beach. For some, the steps may be a little much to get down to the beach but for us it was perfect. Being a little higher up gives you a better view! The condo was amazingly clean, comfortable and everything as advertised. The owners (Brad & Liz) were fantastic to work with and made sure we had everything we needed and more. I highly recommend staying here, there is no doubt we will be back!

Perfect Location!
We went to Florida for a destination wedding and everyone was jealous of our condo and location on the beach! It is truly a stunning beach, stunning views and perfect location to go to local shopping and restaurants. However, who wants to leave this ideal location!!! WE did not :). We had an amazing time and the condo was clean and well maintained. We loved the rain shower head in the master bath after our days at the beach! Great place with everything we needed. Would definitely go back to this place again in a heartbeat! Thanks Greg for the easy booking :)
