Beach Service
The Seacrest Beach Homeowner’s Association is proud to have La Dolce Vita act as our ambassadors down at the beach. You can reserve beach chairs or setup a beach bonfire by visiting their on-line reservation portal or give them a call at 866-651-1869.

Seacrest Café
One of the newest additions to our community is the Seacrest Beach Café operated by Crust Artisan Bakery. The Café is located on the east side of the lagoon and features a delectable menu that is not your typical pool-side snack shack. They have seafood baskets, the classics such as chicken fingers and burgers, po-boys and sandwiches as well as a satisfying kids menu.

Lagoon/Amphitheater
Centered within the community is the Seacrest Lagoon. This 378,000-gallon pool is one of the largest private pools in the state of Florida, and is open year-round from 9am – 9:45pm for Seacrest residents and guests. At present, our amazing lagoon pool is heated only by the sun. The amphitheater is a grassy area where concerts, movies, and weddings are held. It is also great for a pick-up game of Bocce or Frisbee throwing.

Tram Service
From March through October, the Seacrest Tram service offers transportation to and from the designated tram stops in the neighborhood to the beach or the Lagoon. Simply walk out your front door go to the nearest tram stop and then call for pickup. The tram will arrive within fifteen minutes.

Great location and Neighborhood for a girls trip! We had ages from 13-60. Loved the tram stop right outside the front door and easy walking distance to the beach (4 minutes), shopping, restaurants, Rosemary and Alys! House was a great set up for 8 people and could have easily handled a few more! Overall the house was very clean and new! Furniture, bathrooms, kitchen etc were all great! Super comfy beds, great water pressure in the shower and a big washer and dryer. A well stocked kitchen with plenty of plates, silverware, cups, service bowls, etc. Big pantry, plenty of areas to sit and relax indoors and out! Xbox, games, Tvs on multiple floors. A couple of Negatives... 1. There was not a broom. There was a dust brush and dust pan, but nothing to do a good sweep of the kitchen and living room wood floors. 2. We killed a couple of spiders on the wall inside. 3. A bed blanket and a mattress pad on a pull out couch had some stains..... 4. Downstairs bedroom closet shelves were broken and no room for hanging clothes. None of these were the end of there world, We just didn't sweep and dealt with the sand on the floor, we killed the spiders and we took the blanket off the bed, didn't use the pull out couch, and keep our clothes folded. Overall, we would stay here again and had a great vacation! The location in Seacrest can't be beat!

The three of us came for a girls weekend to beach, shop, relax, eat & unwind. We arrived at 1am & by 7:30am the next morning, we had a parking violation on our vehicle because we didn’t have the proper permit. The office was closed when we arrived, so…we were put off by this action. Then, that morning we went to the check in office at the pool. They gave us a packet. When we got back to the house the packet had NO permit inside, but we had plans for the entire day & didn’t have time to go back to get the permit until after the office’s closing, so of course, we got another violation ticket on the car the next morning. It was ridiculous. When we arrived at the house at 1am the first night there was a HUGE roach - i am talking several inches large in the bedroom downstairs. We were very upset about it & couldn’t catch it and it went from the ceiling to the wall to under the bed. When we woke up there was a huge spider on the kitchen counter. Many of the lights didn’t work, including the one in the master BR on the fan, the one on the main floor on the fan, & many bulbs were out. There were no cushions on the outdoor furniture on the third floor patio, which was pictured with cushions, so we had to bring blankets and pillows to sit out there each morning & put them back each morning. The seal on the door on the downstairs bedroom had a huge gap. The paper products were horrible in quality for the price of this property. The master BR shower wasnt clean.

Driftwood Cottage was clean and beautiful! It accommodated 8 people (4 adults and 4 kids) well. The neighborhood itself is cute and offers a wonderful pool! Overall, the access to the beach is convenient, however we were limited where we could sit at the beach. While chairs were available for purchase, all guests of our neighborhood were limited to a small section of the beach. That was very disappointing to us. Rosemary Beach has cute shopping and good food options. Highly recommend bikes because parking is limited and traffic becomes congested. We had issues with the Wi-Fi and maintenance was called twice. Inconsistent cooling (AC) in the house.
