About this house rental

Elysee Retreat is a sparkling, rare jewel of a home— luxurious yet laid-back, elegant yet completely comfortable, and perfectly placed in an exclusive gated community in the heart of Seacrest Beach. The front facade of Elysee Retreat is a treat for the eyes, with pristinely manicured landscaping, swaying palm trees, and a stunning Mediterranean-inspired design.

Inside, the entire home has been expertly curated by renowned Atlanta-based designer Melanie Turner. Ms. Turner is known for being inspired by high fashion balanced with soothing, natural tones. She believes in surrounding her clients with beauty— and nowhere is that more apparent than at Elysee Retreat, where you’ll find simple, stunning beauty around every corner.

In the living area, crisp white walls are offset with rustic, exposed wood beams and gleaming oak floors. Two plush sofas provide plenty of places to sink down and relax with a great book or movie. The elegantly arched windows and glass doors allow the natural Florida sunshine to flood the space with light. Around the corner is another living space with tons of additional seating.

In the kitchen, a totally unique, bespoke banquette dining area features a cream sofa surrounded by slabs of gleaming gray and white marble. The luxe Gaggenau appliances blend seamlessly with the sleek, Italian-made cabinets and create a clean palette. Nearby, an enormous, live-edge wood dining table has formal seating for ten.

On the second floor, there are three spacious master suites that each include a sumptuous king-size bed set into a custom upholstered bed frame. Each of the three suites has its own private, spa-like bathroom. The grand master suite has a separate soaking tub, step-in shower, and double vanity. The other two bathrooms have a unique, curved, marble vanity and subway-tiled showers. On the third level are two more private bedrooms with tons of flexible sleeping space and a shared full bathroom.

Back on the ground level, the arched French doors swing open wide to reveal a brilliant blue swimming pool surrounded by stone pavers and bright green grass. An outdoor lounge area is an ideal spot to relax with a glass of wine while dinner cooks on the grill nearby.

Privacy, exclusivity, and total comfort— at the one-of-a-kind Elysee Retreat, you’ll have it all. Deeded beach access makes any trip to the shore effortless and relaxing. You’ll also be about a ten-minute stroll or bike-ride away from all of the dining and shopping of bustling downtown Rosemary Beach. With room for sixteen to spread out and completely relax, Elysee Retreat has space for everyone in your group to enjoy a luxury holiday to the shore.

The house is big and spacious. The location was perfect for walking, biking, and getting around. The access to the beach was tricky for we had a small baby in a stroller and you had a steep descent and climb. The pool was perfect. It was enjoyable.

This house is stunning and was a very relaxing and peaceful environment for our family. The bedrooms are very nicely spaced for everyone to have their privacy. And having a private pool was delightful! My only concern would be attention to detail when it comes to cleaning and repairs. (Overall the home could have been cleaner, the door handles on the doors to the outside were falling off, and the furniture is pretty worn, one of the water heaters was broken a couple days we were there, and the rain came in the door in the kitchen and created a puddle) But not enough to keep us from coming back to this home. Overall I would still give it a 5 star rating. And hopefully these issues will be resolved soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is awesome. Walking distance to everything. Back yard pool is wonderful! Jets in pool are set like a lazy river ride. Kitchen is well stocked. The extra fridge really comes in handy. This house needs a deep cleaning and some paint. The den sofas are awful. Lots of wear and tear.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I wish I could give our stay a 5-star review, because it is indeed a 5-star property. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the wood floor buckling in front of the refrigerator in the kitchen. Consequently, there was a parade of people coming through to observe and assess. On the one hand, kudos to property mgmt for being on top of the problem. On the other hand, it was a bit of a disruption, especially when we didn't know people were coming. More importantly, the location is ideal, the house is spacious and comfortable, the pool is perfect. My family had a wonderful experience.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our whole family loved this property. The location was perfect- beach side of 30A, in a gated community, walk down street to private beach access, beach chair company at bottom of stairs. Minutes walk to downtown Rosemary for shops and restaurants. House was professionally decorated, very comfortable beds and furniture, living spaces large, kitchen appliances fully stocked... This house was large and plenty of room to sleep a large group. Property management was kind and immediately responsive to a couple of small requests. We’ll hopefully use this same house for our next trip. I highly recommend this property company, and this property.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location of Elysee retreat was excellent!Property had previous water damage where there was a significant odor upon arrival & during our stay! In addition while we were there we lost the pool for 2 days due to a mechanical issue, grill did not work and MB tub won’t not hold water! All were repaired promptly by management company!This should not occur if maintenance is occurring regularly especially for a house of this cost! Rent beach chairs, do not bring your own as you will not be able to use them during the day only at sunset snd sunrise before rental chairs are set up!In addition, I am still waiting to understand any restitution for the issues we experienced during our stay. Overall disappointed for the cost of the house rental!
