Gtrat experience...Property was clean, roomy, fully stocked for indoor and outdoor activities, nice outdoor space to relax and great proximity to the beach! Check In was easy, owners were very engaged. Some pet hair/dander. Will stay again!!
The upstairs meeting area was fantastic and the place accommodated our three families comfortably. It is a block from the beach, yet you don't have to cross the major highway. The house is well kept, inside and outside, and we loved the location! If available, we would definitely stay there again.
Great rental house. Fabulous outdoor space with games and comfortable seating. Provided beach chairs, cooler, wagon and many beach towels. Lots of kitchen supplies to cook for large group. Comfortable sleeping arrangements as stated. Open family area upstairs with other options available downstairs. Loved the set up
This was such a wonderful stay for my whole family for a wedding anniversary celebration! We loved all the back yard options for hanging out with kiddos, and the open living space and kitchen were plenty large for our crew of 14. Our only challenge was that the floor downstairs has lots of little steps up and down and we have a couple folks with mobility challenges who found it a bit intimidating and specially at night- but it was navigable for them with extra care. We made a lot of fun memories here!
House was not as clean as it should have been. We were told to remove our shoes and the upstairs kitchen/family room floor was gritty/dirty. The shower in the family space upstairs should have safety bars. The trash barrels were both half full upon our arrival so we had to put paper items in cans with no lids. No plastic wrap and aluminium foil in the kitchen.
Good location. Steps to the beach and short drive to everything. Large spacious home that accommodated our large family. Nicely decorated and clean. Back yard great with lots of fun things to do. Comfortable beds. There were some minor issues that should be addressed. None of the outlets in the bathrooms worked so impossible to dry your hair. Did not have a gas grill in the yard, but had a charcoal grill/ smoker. No charcoal or lighter fluid provided. Had to go to the store and get it. No wood or logs for the firepit. If you plan on cooking,especially for a large group the pots and pans were not sufficient and of poor quality. Plenty of dishes and glasses. No coffee pot, but there is a keurig so bring k- cups. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend
The home was prefect for our group of 9 friends. View from the upstairs livingroom and balcony was spectacular. This place the bedrooms were downstairs with a small kitchen and living room area. Upstairs housed all 9 of us for dinning, cooking and lounging. Such a great experience!
We came for my daughterâs wedding, 11 of us stayed, enjoyed the house and surrounding area. Lots to do just at the house. Wish we planned to stay longer.Some little things like the shower curtin on the second floor kept falling down, but no matter
We had the best time at sea gem! It was the perfect long weekend getaway with friends and our dogs! It had a lovely beach view and so many amazing amenities for the beach and at the house! We would love to come back!
The property was as advertised. Lovely view of sunrise from living room. The property manager was quick to respond to any questions and checked in regularly. We were all happy with the house.
The only complaint I have is there was not much toilet paper and paper towels. When you look on the website, it stated that toilet paper and paper towels would be provided.
My three brothers and I celebrated my momâs birthday by arriving from all over the country to stay in the Sea Gem. It was spectacular. The living accommodations and outside space were perfect for our great get together. We loved that it was so close to the beach.
This home was by far one of the most beautiful vacation homes we have stayed in. There is no way you could not enjoy yourself from all the gear to spend a day at the beach with toys for water umbrellas and chairs for relaxing in sun, body boards for water
We had a wonderful stay at Sea Gem. The house was beautiful, and the upstairs living area was so comfortable with the prettiest views of the ocean and beach. There was plenty of room for 10 of us, with many different areas to hang out at that we never felt we were on top of each other. The beach was a short few minute walk and never busy, with beautiful sand and clean waters. The backyard was so much fun with all the games and activities, we spent a few nights just enjoying that. The hosts were most responsive with a few little things that popped up, and there was everything you need there for the beach, cooking, cleaning and entertainment. It was a fantastic vacation and we highly recommend the Sea Gem.
We had 11 guys get together for basically a 30 year college reunion.
We practically lived in the backyard, sitting by the fire pit telling stories, grilling, playing bocce ball and cornhole, etc.
The beds were very comfortable, and the huge couch in the great room was also a great place to sleep/nap as well (you could sleep 4 people comfortably on that alone)
This place was also a 2 minute walk from the Ocean, 2 miles from a Publix store, and was within a mile from multiple restaurants.
We brought beach supplies, but the Sea Gem already had everything needed for a day at the beach (umbrella, chairs, footballs, a beach buggy to carry them, etc.)
If you want a great ocean spot that is also quiet and laid back (and has great accommodations), the Sea Gem will not disappoint you.
This property is 5-Stars across the board, is more beautiful than pictured, which often is the opposite. The only negative is the 2nd doorstep from 2nd side driveway is hard to see, which resulted in my son rolling his ankle walking out. Itâs due to step up being camouflaged due to being only a couple inches higher than driveway and made from same color pavers as driveway. He was ok and this was the only negative.
Beach house was very clean, had all the supplies we needed, tons of activities for our family during our wedding weekend, tons of beach toys to use as well. Navigating to and parking was easy, lots of spaces. Loved, it and communication from host was stellar, frequent and accommodating.
The upstairs view of the beach is great. Awesome space for our group of friends. Plenty to do and room to spread out. The king bed in the master was like sleeping on a cloud.
The property was amazing overall and extremely clean considering pets are allowed. My toy poodle accompanied us as well. Anything you could possibly need or want was already there for guest use. The host(s) were very thoughtful when choosing amenities for this house. As for the not so perfect items like the master bathroom's electrical outlet not working and a blown bulb or the TV in one of the bedrooms not pulling up the guide, those were just minor annoyances. There was, however, a substantial carpenter ant issue on the property grounds. An exterminator was there an hour after being reported and decreased the number in the backyard dramatically. There were still a few up on the deck, but only one was actually found inside the house. The quick response to the ants by property management was awesome. Now on to the not so great response. On the first night, one of the chairs in the upstairs dining area broke, sending my 72 year-old aunt crashing to the floor. Once we picked her up, we could see that the chair had been previously repaired. Supports had been added underneath to the one leg that buckled. The person who answered the call for property management showed no empathy whatsoever. When I pointed out the fact that there was a previous repair present, he said, "Things break. We repair them so this doesn't happen." Obviously, that was a contradictory statement. Compassion does not equal liability. Sometimes people just want to know that someone undestands and/or cares.
Loved the house! Loved the backyard. Loved the openness of the family/kitchen upstairs. Great location! Such a good time! Would definitely stay there again!
We had a large group and the layout of the home was perfect. Also - the home is closer to the beach (literally 100 yards) than the description. Would stay again.
