Area Attractions:
Seaside is a fantastic destination in walking distance and is most widely known for being featured in the Truman Show with Jim Carrey. Its incredible architecture has helped to make it famous but also its faithful replication of the kind of seaside town that used to be common up and down the coast. Seaside has its own Farmer's Market, post office, Repertory Theater and neighborhood school. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine and the incredible architecture that makes Seaside famous, There are activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, tennis -- you'll find it all right here.
The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Location, location, location! This house (main house and guest house together) was amazing and met our expectations. On the beach, right next to public beach access. Amazing view. The house was clean and everything we needed. Accommodated our large group very well. The air conditioning was good and cold in the main house. The square and lots of wonderful restaurants are a short walk from the house. We easily rode the bikes to Publix for a few items.
Cons:
The guest house felt humid all the time. The air in the guest house wouldn’t go down past 70. We were very hot at night sleeping in there. The guest house smelled musty. The beds are pretty firm. Also, the key pad for the guest house was difficult to operate. Half the numbers wouldn’t beep when you push them, so you had to keep pushing that one number until it beeped. Took 47 tries before we ever figured it out. I did call the help desk for the issue and they were very nice and responsive."
