About this property

Penthouse in Seaside with Incredible Gulf, Town, and Sunset Views, + 2 Bikes

55 Central Square, Unit C

Welcome to 'Alta Vista' - a luxurious, coastal penthouse with a prime location overlooking the Seaside Amphitheater with the most impressive gulf and sunset views from your generous open-air balcony! This grand penthouse with its premier Seaside location is a short walk to the beach and easy walking to over 35 shops and restaurants just outside your door. Access to the penthouse is by private elevator to the third-floor unit.

Upon entry, guests enter a well-appointed open floor plan with a bountiful living room with a large sectional sofa and a 65-inch flat screen TV perfect for movie nights. The home also offers full home audio. Off the living room is the true gem of the home, the expansive private furnished balcony that provides some of the best panoramic Gulf views and stunning sunsets. The balcony features outdoor dining for six and adjacent bar seating for two more. The gourmet kitchen features a six-burner Viking stove with a pot filler, a coffee pot, a Keurig, bar seating for three more, and an adjacent wet bar. There is plenty of built-in kitchen storage for lengthier stays or cooking in. The designated wet bar has wine storage, a beverage center, and a prep sink. Across from the kitchen and wet bar is a dining area that seats six comfortably, where you can see your Gulf views as you dine!

This home features two king bedrooms and is perfect for families or a couple’s escape. The spacious king primary has an ensuite bath, a private balcony, a large flat-screen TV, and a desk perfect for working remotely. The balcony overlooks the Seaside rooftops and is the perfect location for morning coffee. The ensuite primary bath has a deep soaker tub, dual vanities, and a glass-enclosed steam shower. The second king bedroom has its own mounted flat-screen TV and shares a full hall bath. The full hall bath has a single vanity and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. In the hallway is a bonus bunk nook perfect for younger ones. (The built-in custom bunks are slightly smaller than a standard twin, so perfect for kids younger than 12).

Enjoy incredible Gulf views from inside your living room and enjoy outdoor dining from your private expansive balcony. Sit and watch the sun rise and set over Seaside's town square, listen to the waves, and people-watch to your heart's content. Alta Vista is equipped with a stackable washer/dryer for your convenience. This deluxe penthouse is sure to make your Seaside, FL getaway one that you'll never forget!

Great View and great location.

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: Our arrival process was a little stressful as we did not receive but correct entry code but it was resolved as quickly as possible with great follow up. The view is the best that we have ever had in our 4 years of coming to Seaside. Having coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening overlooking the square and ocean were the highlight of the stay. The only negative at all was that the design style was not what we've grown to love in the area as the floor plan layout and and decor was just very bland at best but we knew that at the time of rental. Beds were comfortable and we had all of the little necessities to make it a perfect week for our family. Easy access to the beach, coffee, and food! Would definitely stay again.

Great trip but a few things could be improved upon.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo and Seaside were great as usual. The late check in at 4pm on arrival day and early check out at 10am on departure day are an issue if you travel to Seaside by flight. Management of the condo is fairly inflexible on arrival and departure which is surprising given the price point. No trash pick up and no clear place defined where to take trash is an issue. Place is aging a bit and needs maintenance. Dishwasher falling out of its mount. Ice maker limping along. Elevator doors looking a bit ragged, that sort of thing.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 July 2024
Buddie, Thank you for taking the time to share an overall positive experience on Alta Vista condo and the team of Homeowners Collection. I will share your feedback with Management regarding the check in & out times. We sometimes can work with you contingent upon booking timelines of other guests before & after you. I will let our Quality Control Manager know about the maintenance items & trash location/removal situation.We sincerely hope to welcome you back on any future Seaside visits, Buddie. Take care.
