Hemingway on 30A at Seacrest Beach

Our party had a great time. The house was incredible and provided us was more than enough room to very very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

This is a beautiful home and in a great location. Downstairs has a queen bedroom with a bath (also used as the downstairs powder room). Upstairs is a king bedroom and a queen bedroom. Both with bathrooms. The washer and dryer are located in the hall between the master and queen bedroom. The washing machine has significant mildew inside, so we were unable to use it. I suggest the owners have the cleaning crew take care of this. It is a front loader so mildew builds up quickly. The garage is nice but you can’t use it except for putting floats, etc. in it. Double garage but the owners golf cart takes up one side (which renters cannot use) and the other side is for the bikes. There are 6 bikes and that was very nice. You cannot ride bikes all the way to the beach. You can ride them to the front of the Seacrest property but then you have to lock them up and either walk across 30a or take the tram. It is a short walk. We had 3 cars so we were able to put them in the driveway although there is parking in front of the house also. The apartment over the garage is super nice. The reason for the 4 star rating is the garbage disposal had a horrible odor and the dishwasher also had mildew build-up throughout the inside. I suggest the owners replace or have both deep cleaned.

The house was perfect but the Seacrest rules are very unreasonable. They will not allow you to use cars, carts, bikes, etc to carry beach chairs, toys, etc to the beach which can be approximately 1 mile from your house. Also, the Seacrest beach area is too small for the amount of people who are staying on the property. If we didn't get up by 7 am and carry (shuttle does not run until 9:00 am) our chairs to the beach, there would not be able space available for us. The shuttle ran maybe 25% of tour vacation. It shuts down at the hint of a sprinkle and then it does not reopen for the day. Our AC was not working when we arrive but Seacrest responded quickly to scheduling a service call but I had to stay awake until 1:00 am when he arrived. You will need to bring your large frying pan/griddle from home if you plan to cook for more than a few people. Also, bring hair dryers, shampo, and shower soap. The TV remote for the master bedroom was missing. All in all we loved our vacation but it was just a lot of walking and carrying stuff to and from the beach.

We enjoyed our stay. Clean, comfortable, and we enjoyed the bikes they came with the house. We would recommend getting a nice full sized blender for kitchen. We ate in most nights and made our own drinks. A bigger sized couch would be nice. We would definitely go back. It was close to tram stop, shops and the pool. Lots of space for everyone to have their own space.
