Beautiful and Clean!
This was a beautiful property! We only stayed for 2 nights, but I would love to come back for a longer stay! The rooms were very large and the living and dining room were great for our family to socialize in. The only negative was that check in was at 6pm, however we were able to get into the house early when I reached out to the property manager. Great place!

Karen was such a pleasure to work with. We were allowed to check in earlier than expected, which is such a bonus. The house is so clean, comfortable, and a close walk to the beach and pool area. The location is perfect for enjoying great restaurants and shops along 30A. We look forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely house, busy beach
This property was wonderful and Karen was so helpful and great. Our only negative experience was that Seacrest beach, which is the only one that was walkable for our family, was extremely crowded and small. We chose to drive to Inlet Beach most days and enjoyed it much more. But, the house was beautiful, clean, and perfect for our group of 4 adults and 5 young children. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Family reunion
My extended family had a reunion. My sisters’ families stayed in other homes but this home was a great location, as it was close to 30A and close to a tram stop. The home was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The owner communicated the details of the rental and area well and even added a personal touch with recommendations of places to go. We enjoyed our stay!

This beach house is in a great location with quick access to many restaurants, the beach and the community pool. Although we had less than perfect weather for our trip, we took advantage of the cloudy days by biking up and down 30A. Excellent trip and Karen was very accommodating to our early arrival and offered up several tips and suggestions for things to do nearby which we took full advantage of. Great overall stay!

Wonderful Vacation Home in Perfect Location
This was the most enjoyable and relaxing vacation we’ve had in years. Weeks before we arrived, Karen, the owner, sent an email with details about the house, the neighborhood, and the surrounding area. That made it much easier to plan our trip and know what to pack. She provided beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, etc. so we didn’t have to pack those. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and very comfortable. You can tell that the owners stay here often, because I don’t feel like we lacked anything. It is very well stocked with the essentials. We had 2 adults and 3 teenagers and still had plenty of room and beds to spare. The neighborhood felt like the perfect coastal town. We spent a lot of time at the giant pool and ate at the restaurants in the town center several times. We became regulars at the Beach & Brew because the folks were so nice there. Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach are a short walk (or even shorter bike ride) away and we spent a lot of time in those town centers, too. We basically parked our cars the day we checked in and didn’t drive again until we checked out. It’s nice not having to ever get in your car. There’s a tram that takes you to the beach, but we found it was easier to just walk since the house is so close to the beach access. This was the perfect vacation for our 14 and 15 year old. They loved the freedom of riding their bikes everywhere. Karen was the perfect hostess and was accessible throughout our stay. I’ve stayed in many VRBO rentals, and this was by far the best experience I’ve had with the owners. We will definitely be back.

Great location, easy, comfortable, fun!
We stayed last week of May and had a great time! The house is adorable and perfectly located. Easy walk to pool, beach, and all shops and restaurants from Alys to Rosemary Beach. Our kids loved the pool and we enjoyed the less crowded time at the Seacrest beach around sunset. Highly recommend searching out the state beaches for less crowds and natural beauty. We went to Shell Island at the tip of Panama city several days. Absolutely stunning. Owner was very helpful with information and prompt. Would definitely rent again if in the area.

This was an amazing trip to 30a! The house was wonderful with room for everyone:). It was very clean and so close to everything! The beach is 5 minutes away and the pool even closer. Shops are a short walk and Karen recommended the Farmers Market on Sunday which was great! This was the vacation of our dreams and Karen was so helpful and attentive whenever I texted her a question! We will definitely be back:)

Favorite Beach House
This beach house is a great location. Even though it is not on the beach side of 30A, it is convenient to everything in the Rosemary Beach area. The house beachy fun decor and all the amenities you need. Perfect for a 6 person group. We will definitely stay at Sea Waves again. It was nice to have bikes and chairs available for guests to use. Also, the property owner provides great information about the area and is accessible if you need anything or have questions.

Beautiful, Comfortable and Conveniently Located
We had a wonderful stay at Southern Waves. The house was just as described, clean, and conveniently located. The beach is a short walk, as is Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfortable and having a high chair and pack n play at the house was a welcomed addition. The owner, Karen, was great! She always responded immediately to emails before our visit and was extremely responsive to texts during our stay. My only 2 complaints (and these having nothing to do with the unit or the owner) - The pool is not heated. We went in early April so the water was really cold. My kids didn’t seem to mind it when it was sunny but I couldn’t get in. Also, the designated beach area for Seacrest guests is small and gets really crowded. Most of the beach space is taken up by the chair rentals (which were only about a 1/3 filled) so you if you bring your own equipment, get to the beach early if you want a spot close to the water. Despite those small complaints, we had a wonderful trip! This was our first visit to 30A and it certainly lived up to the hype. We will most definitely be back!

AWESOME trip! LOVED 30A
Southern Waves was perfect for our family of 4 - we easily could have had more people! We loved the crows nest area! This was our first trip to 30A but we will be back! The house was beautiful - very well decorated, clean, comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen. Karen was amazing - she checked in on us to see if we needed anything or had any questions - was very sweet. The location was perfect - right at the front of the neighborhood which made access to everything really easy! You can walk to Rosemary and Alys beach and bike everywhere! We had a bonfire on Inlet Beach (30ABlaze), paddle boarded & kayaked Western Lake, had a great day of offshore fishing with Dead Fish Charters, watched many a sunsets on the beach and biked all the way to Seaside! It was nice the house had a few bikes - if you need more Peddlers Village is right up the street, the house also had beach chairs, boogie boards and some beach toys! Can’t go wrong with this house!

Best View in Seacrest Beach
As a retired couple vacationing in February, Southern Waves was tailored to our needs. The home was ideally located on 30A in Seacrest Beach nestled between Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach. We could walk in either direction and enjoy shops, restaurants and see the lovely architecture of the homes in each community. The owner, Karen, was a delight and extremely helpful and communicative. She was always just a "text" away to answer questions or offer suggestions. The home was extremely clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The master bedroom was very comfortable and private on the 2nd floor. We really enjoyed the tranquility of the3rd floor tower room and loved the Gulf view. The best view in the entire Seacrest neighborhood!!

Perfect Beach Home
We loved staying here. The third floor is really cool - spiral stairs up to this floor, windows on all sides, view out to Gulf, and French doors out to two balconies. We were taking a semi-vacation and doing work and schoolwork remotely - the girls claimed the third floor and my husband and I each set-up in a second floor bedroom to work so plenty of space and privacy for all. The home was spotlessly clean, very cute, comfortable, and well furnished. The neighborhood is interesting to walk around - pretty houses, short walk to beach (<5 min), and restaurants. Owner had great proactive communication and was very accessible for any questions. You could tell she really wanted us to enjoy our stay and we did!

Great location and accommodations!
we really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was myself, husband, our 22mo old daughter, and our 10 wk old son. Everyone had their own space, and the walk to the beach was 5-7min. Unfortunately they don't allow any wheeled devices on the beach walk (ie: wagons or strollers) to help you cart your items to the beach, so it was a bit of a haul with two little ones! Thats not the property's fault, obviously, but just something for future folks to know about the beach access. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, the neighborhood was safe and quiet, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need! This property was very comfortable and very well furnished for renters. Plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance, and our daughter loved the playground down at Aly's Beach. We would definitely stay here again!

This was our first visit to 30A, and we really picked a winner by staying at Southern Waves! It could not have been more perfect. The house is so pretty, decorated so cute, and comes with absolutely everything you could ever need. We loved the location in Seacrest, as it is right in between Rosemary and Alys, and within easy walking distance of many restaurants and shops. What really put it "over the top" was the great communication, generosity, and southern hospitality extended by Karen. She is the best! We plan to return to the area, and I don't think we will ever be able to stay in any other property after being spoiled by Karen and Southern Waves!

The manager of the property was probably the highlight of our stay. Traveling with 3 kids under 4 is more of a “relocation” and she was so accommodating, even with complications of a recent hurricane and pandemic. She was easy to get in touch with and up front and understanding about everything. You can’t beat the location. Easy to walk to the beach, pool, or restaurants. Thank you for a fun week!
