Welcome to Kaya a renovated cottage nestled in the heart of Seaside. This updated home blends modern comfort and designer touches throughout—from the sleek new kitchen and spa-inspired bathrooms to the stylish furniture. Kaya is ideally located within easy walking distance to all of Seaside’s top attractions—beach access, shopping, dining, and family-friendly entertainment. What sets this home apart are the expansive porches that span the entire front of the home on both levels, offering serene views of a peaceful wooded park. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee in a rocking chair on the ground floor porch or enjoying a breezy dinner on the upstairs screened-in porch, you'll find no shortage of spots to relax and recharge.

Inside there are three comfortable bedrooms on the main level and a fourth bedroom upstairs. The king primary suite is a luxurious retreat with new furnishings, a mounted flat-screen TV, and French doors that lead to a private screened-in porch lounge with cushioned wicker seating—a perfect spot for evening cocktails. The ensuite bathroom is spa-like, with marble countertops, dual vanities, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower featuring a rainfall and multiple-stream shower system.

Down the hall is the queen bedroom with a mounted flat-screen TV, a club chair, and French doors that open to a shared screened porch outfitted with rocking chairs. A third bedroom features two twin beds, porch access, reading lights, and cheerful decor. These two bedrooms share a hall bathroom with a large vanity and a glass-enclosed tub and shower combination.

Upstairs, the bright and airy second floor is where everyone naturally gathers. The new kitchen is a highlight, boasting gleaming quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large refrigerator, and a Keurig coffee maker. There's a breakfast bar with seating for three and ample storage space throughout. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area, where a large table comfortably seats eight. The spacious living room is outfitted with a large sectional sofa, accent chairs, and a mounted flat-screen TV—making it the perfect space for movie nights or game days. Just beyond the living area, the screened-in upper porch is an ideal extension of your living space with a dining table and additional seating, making outdoor meals or sunset lounging easy and enjoyable any time of day.

Also on the second floor is a bonus work area with a built-in desk, perfect for guests who need to check in with the office or work remotely. At the back of the home is the fourth bedroom—a private queen guest suite with its own renovated bathroom, flat-screen TV, and porch access for a little extra peace and privacy. The ensuite bathroom features a glass-enclosed tub and shower combo and a generous vanity.

Outside, guests can rinse off in the outdoor shower after a sandy day at the beach, fire up the grill for a laid-back barbecue, or stroll into town for dinner and a show under the stars. Kaya delivers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and coastal charm.

    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: This was our 6th vacation in Seaside, but our first time to stay in a main house, and Kaya did not disappoint! We were 2 adult couples and 1 family of 4, so the bedroom configuration was perfect. The family had a mini-wing to themselves. With screened porches off of every room, there was plenty of space for us all to spread out and have quiet time, too. The location was great. Just behind the school, it was quiet and a close walk to Town Square. A serene view of the park from the porches with no home on that side was really nice too. The home itself was in really good condition and well-maintained. There were games and puzzles available for the rainy afternoons, which we appreciated. Kaya is definitely on our preferred list! HC is always helpful and communicative, and we enjoyed meeting our rep upon arrival. Another great trip to Seaside is complete!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have visited Seaside for almost two decades and have stayed in several different Homeowners Collection properties but this is by far our favorite (so far).Great layout, with the kitchen and family room upstairs which gave the place a light and airy feel but the best part of the house are the screened in porches on the first and second floors that face the greenbelt between Seaside and Watercolor. A great place to read, relax, have a meal, or a nap. This home is very close to the city center but just far enough away that you don't hear the noise or deal with the traffic and parking closer to the square (key during spring break weeks).The condition of the home and furnishings was excellent and the kitchen well stocked. This will be a family fav going forward.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time. We enjoyed the house. We had an air conditioner problem, but it was taken care of right away. We would probably not stay in the house again because the living room and kitchen were on the second floor, so there was a lot of up and down. Just was not a good fit for us.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house we originally rented was unavailable at the last moment and the staff of Homeowners Collection were able to relocate us to Kaya. While it caused a longer walk to our beach chairs that were reserved at a different pavilion, the house was absolutely lovely. It’s in a perfect location away from the hustle and bustle of Seaside and 30A but very close to town center. It has large porches (both screened and not screened) with ample seating. The house was very clean and is decorated beautifully. The kitchen was stocked with nice cookware and dishes and the separate ice maker was a huge plus! We come to Seaside often and Kaya is now one of our favorite houses! We would definitely stay again!!
