Beach Bummin' - Seacrest Beach 1 block from pool

Loved this property! Have been to the area multiple times & this place was perfect for a week on 30A. Great kitchen with all the utensils for cooking meals. Beds were cozy & private baths attached to all rooms (plus patio access too). Had extra bunks in hallway for small kids! Was super cute! Loved the games, puzzles, bikes & beach chairs too. Really felt like a home. Thank you!

The Good, Bad & Ugly from our vacation to Seacrest Beach and our stay at Beach Bummin'... GOOD - House is in a great location with a trolley stop just outside the door, just a few minutes’ walk to area attractions, use of 4 bikes and patio area was nice with table, chairs and grill. BAD - Communication from host was not very good. Several texts during our stay (see below) with responses delayed or not at all. Check-in instructions were very limited and did not mention how to obtain parking passes, wristbands for pool, or combination for bikes. The carpet upstairs is worn, beds were just so-so, washer/dryer were old, and beach towels were thin from overuse. There was no broom or mop and the cordless vacuum just “moved dirt around” instead of picking it up. UGLY - The house was not clean. Food items were seen under the furniture in the living room after our arrival. Shared this with the host and a cleaning crew was sent back in to clean again and when we arrived back at the house…all of it still there. The dishwasher did not work, had left over food and mold inside. Host said they would send maintenance, but we never saw anyone, host never contacted me again about the dishwasher, and it never worked our entire stay. We have spent many vacations in the Destin, Panama City, 30A area over the past 30 years and the accommodations have always been above par. While we will return to 30A for future vacations, Beach Bummin’ will not be on our list of places to stay.

The property was fantastic! If you’re like me and you use recent reviews to pick a place, keep reading!! The listing was as described. My group of 6 especially enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and outdoor seating as we did a lot of cooking. We also appreciated how sound proof the house was. Some girls liked to get up early but the sounds of them walking around or starting coffee could not be heard by the girls sleeping upstairs. We appreciated how clean everything was, the starter amenities (bring or buy more TP!! Only 1 roll per bathroom. Note this is mentioned in the checkin instruction email as well).and the beach towels. There were lots of games books and beach chairs/toys too. The only thing we wish was more clear was the registration when arriving. You must go to the community pool and check in with the leasing office. There’s a form that can be filled out ahead of time or on your phone by scanning a QR code. Once that’s done, you get your wristbands which are needed for the pool or shuttle service. Make sure your leave the wristbands at the property when you check out! You also need a parking tag if you have a car, otherwise you’re at risk of a ticket or tow!! This was not mentioned in the check in email by the host and feed back was given to include it for future guests. Overall, this hiccup did not negatively impact our trip and we would highly recommend the property and hosts. We’d happily stay again!

The house is conveniently located at walking distance from the Community Pool, close to the beach access and there is a tram service if you are not able to walk! There is a nature trail and a park close by if you want to keep yourself active.

Clean and great location to main pool. Shuttle to beach right outside your door. 4 free bikes went a long way with our kids. Gas grill with gas a great help. Beach chairs, umbrellas a very nice add so you do not have to rent at beach. In all a great place and location

Great house in great neighborhood- easy walk to pool and beach! Loved having 4 bikes included with our stay. Very comfortable house in great condition with everything we needed from kitchen supplies to beach chairs

I absolutely loved staying at this location. The home was everything I had hoped. Getting to the location where the parking permit & wrist bracelet were to be picked up was confusing as the office was tucked away in the pool area, but once I found it- the process was quick. I also was supposed to have a bike dropped off and never got one. I ended up not needing it so it wasn't a big deal. My only complaint was the cleaning lady on the day of departure. I was staying at the property by myself and had already packed my car early in the morning so I could enjoy my breakfast and relax before departing. The cleaning lady showed up early and aggressively knocked on the door demanding access to the home so she could clean. It wasn't even 10am yet. I tried to tell her I was the only one staying at the house and I already packed my vehicle. I felt so uncomfortable that she had been parked outside the house watching for me. She made me feel so uncomfortable and frazzled that I left behind my food in the fridge that I was going to take with me. Very rude and disrespectful. Despite the text you get from mgmt asking you to send them a text if anything wasn't satisfactory so they can make it right, they dismissed my message regarding the situation and simply responded with, Safe Travels. Talk about poor business etiquette. So, if you stay here, be prepared to not be allowed to stay for the length of time they advertise.

The property owner had everything ready for us to have a great vacation. Very communicative and responsive. Excellent location in a beautiful community. We will definitely be returning.

Great time at the beach with family and friends. The house was well stocked and clean. The host was a great communicator!

We had a pleasant stay at this home. The host was responsive and very accommodating … very pleased!
