Beautiful property, great location! Had everything we needed from baby items to all the beach gear. Loved being so close to the beach as well as the watercolor pools and the private pool was perfectly located for a quick dip for our granddaughter. We had a great relaxing time and would highly recommend a stay here!!

Overall, this was the best vacation rental experience we have had thus far. The property is absolutely beautiful and situated in a fantastic location relative to the amenities within Watercolor and neighboring Seaside. The house was equipped with all the comforts of home. The kitchen and entire home were incredibly well stocked (baby gear for infants, coolers for the beach, shampoo/conditioner, beach chairs/umbrellas/childrens beach toys etc). Rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. Our children especially loved the built in bunk beds! The property overlooks the gulf and is beautiful. Beach access is easy as there is an entrance right next to the unit. Our family loved spending time at the private pool only accessible to those staying within the small condo complex. Finally, the host was fantastic. She was informative, accommodating and her communication excellent. This was truly a luxury beachside vacation. Our family loved our stay and we look forward to returning.

Our Family Paradise

This is the third consecutive year we have rented Beachside Dunes. What a blessing for our entire family! The condo is impeccably furnished and clean. The view is unbelievable. The owners are responsive, ready to answer any questions and to help in any way. The kitchen is perfect for preparing family meals and the living space is ideal for family games or watching the big game. The kids are already talking about our next trip there. We'll be back. Thank you!!

Julie’s place was awesome! Perfect view of the ocean from the outside deck was great for morning coffee and views while having meals. The place was well equipped with anything you think of you might need while on vacation. The beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys were great to have. The ability to walk to and from the beach in under 2 minutes with a private walkway was extremely convenient. Seaside square and restaurants were an easy 10 minute walk. Watercolor Area was quiet and safe. Would highly recommend Julie’s place to all!Bob and Lisa L
