This was our 5th time to stay at the Barbie and we love it. We had car trouble on our last day and needed to stay another night and luckily the house was vacant the next week. Ted and Rachel were great and we were able to book an extra night. Can't wait to come back and stay on our next trip.
My family had a WONDERFUL stay here & we didnât want to leave!!. The property is exactly as listed. Super cute decor! Very clean, great responsive host, perfect location. Private beach access right across the street. Private pool a love for the family. Would definitely recommend & hope to stay here again sometime when in the area!
This home was unique, comfortable with great art. It was far more pleasant than the sterile modern condos/homes. The property was very private with beautiful landscaping in the front and back gardens with a nice pool. The property manager was extremely responsive and pleasant.
Adorable house and the pool is perfection. Well stocked kitchen, and the house is just a short walk to both the beach and seaside. Really enjoyed my stay.
Oh my gosh let me sayâŠ.this was the absolute best! The house was clean, well stocked, the owner and his assistant were amazing. We loved the pool. There were lots of jellyfish this week so we took full advantage of the pool. The bed was comfy. The shower was hot, We will book this house again!!
We had an amazing time at this property!! Ted and his team were amazing and easy to work with. The house is in a perfect location for beach access! We will definitely return to this property!
The house was great, particularly the pool and easy beach access. This is basically as easy as it gets if you are on the north side of 30A. The bikes, pool floats and beach chairs in the shed were a nice surprise. I would definitely rent this property again.
Beautiful property! Space was great for our 3 teenagers. Bonus that each bedroom had their own bathroom. Great Location! Easy access to beach right across the street! (Montigo Ave and public Beach access ). Short bike ride to seaside! Pool was Awesome! Loved courtyard area in front yard! Would definitely book this property again!!
We loved our stay at Barbieâa Beach House. The location was close to everything. Easy walk to the beach and bike or golf cart trip into Seaside. Our kids loved having the heated pool to come back to in the afternoon. Ted was very responsive and easy to work with. Great find on 30A!!
I booked Barbie's Beach House, but I stayed in the house right next door (last minute change)- same owner. House was very comfortable and clean. Check-in was easy. The house is in a quiet location. We loved walking across the street to access the beach. Lots are places are an easy walk (organic cafe, several restaurants, bike rentals, etc). The grocery store is a short drive. We had a lovely, relaxing vacation.
The house was fantastic. Close to the beach. Loved the chairs and umbrellas provided. All the comforts of home right at your fingertips. Beds were comfortable. The kids loved having the upstairs to themselves. The pool was great to lounge by after a day at the beach. Very close to Seaside which we visited several times during our week. If we visit the area again, will definitely try to stay in this home again. Many thanks to the owners.
Close to Seaside & Watercolor and directly across 30a from a private beach entry for Montigo Manor subdivisionâŠ. Well stocked kitchen and all the amenities for a wonderful family gathering. The house is charmingly decorated with upscale artsy beach decor & the pool is sparkling. All the beach toys you might need there too! Homeowner very responsive to anything needed. One of the best 30-a beach homes weâve rented in past 10 years & we definitely plan on returning!
Our family just returned from this wonderful oasis and it was everything the owners said it was. From the Key Lime pie in the frig to the great landscaping and private pool, this home had everything a family would want. Seaside is right up the road and the beach is an easy walk across the street. Although they do have a private beach entrance there's also a ramp entrance nearby which is convenient for pushing your beach cart. The beach decor is beautiful and the sectional is very comfy. I would definitely recommend this for any family wanting a nice and relaxing vacation in beautiful Seaside. We can't wait to return next year!!
What we lovedâthe location, the area, the beautiful beach, short walk to beach, beach chairs provided, manager was quick to respond, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen.
What needs improvement â it could use an over all good deep cleaning although it is NOT filthy, outside of home needs some repair and back porch steps very wobbly if you have little ones or elderly, showers need updated/repaired, outside chairs and pool chairs are not the same as pictured.
Overall, we enjoyed the home. It just needs a little TLCâespecially outside.
We had a wonderful stay here! The house was perfect size for our family to spread out and our young kids to have space to sleep away from each other. The home is perfectly fine for a beach vacay, any nicer and I would have constantly been worried my littles were messing something up! We had just what we needed and were close to plenty to do! The pool is very close to the back bedroom door entrance so we did have to rethink our kids sleeping arrangements to account for not wanting any kids staying in that back bedroom as it is very accessible to the pool. My number one recommendation to the owners would be to install a child safety chime/alarm or door lock that is up higher to help those with toddlers feel
more comfortable as the pool is so accessible from the back entrance. We managed with some Amazon bought travel door alarms! Owners were very communicable and quick. Easy checkin and checkout, very appreciated as packing up is always stressful. Overall such a wonderful vacation and weâre so grateful to have found this gem of a house!
We would give Barbieâs Beach House 50 stars if we could- it was so wonderful! We had never been to this part of Florida before and we were expecting a touristy area with strip malls, but it was so beautiful and peaceful instead. The house is very lovely. The beds were super comfy, it was a quiet neighborhood, and we just loved the pool and sitting out on the front Adirondack chairs having our morning coffee and listening to the zizzing bugs and the surf in the background. The walk to the beach was a dream- so close and easy. The beach itself was unreal. I couldnât stop staring at the emerald green water and white sand. We saw dolphins jumping out of the ocean while we were bobbing the waves, and a huge Ray swam by us one time! The water was 86 degrees! Having beach gear available to us was a huge advantage, since we flew in from Connecticut, and we did love getting limes off the lime tree for apres beach mojitos! We enjoyed a few of the local restaurants that the owner suggested (thank you!) and also got delivery. The fish market Goat Feathers sold delicious Gulf snapper, grouper and shrimp that we grilled up at the house too. The Donut Hut was a favorite for the kids. We went on a snorkel and dolphin boat tour out of PCB and that was fun. Iâd stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you again!
Perfect location. Not even 5min walk to the private beach. Parked our car and used a golf cart all week! So fun for the whole family. Exceptionally clean as well.
