"Nice family getaway - I traditionally steer away from properties managed by a large corp group. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the home and the responsiveness of the management team. Contrary to some of the reviews the home was well kept, clean and kitchen fully equipped.
Location was good. Really anywhere in the neighborhood is not bad. With bikes it is very easy to get to the pool, beach, restaurants and stores.
It is very family oriented. The pool rules are a little on the strict side so if you are looking for a wild girls getaway you may want to chose an alternate location. "

"Family vacation - Perfect house and location for our family of four! We loved being so close to Alys. Although crowded at times, the beach was great and the access was easy. Would definitely rent again."

"We enjoyed our girls’ trip to Rosemary Beach and would definitely stay at the Dock Holiday home in Seacrest again. The tram to the beach was convenient and the entire community is perfectly situated between Rosemary and Alys Beach. They don’t have all the bells and whistles in terms of kitchen gadgets but we were eating out at restaurants the majority of our time there so we didn’t mind. The place is decorated well and had lots of room to spread out."

"Great spot - Only complaint would be the doors have no weather stripping so when neighbors had a fire it got stinky. Everything else was fantastic!"

"Great Time! - Pros: The house layout is good. The bunk room looks bigger in the pictures. It is a small room, but works good for kids. The bikes were much appreciated and used! House was clean and kitchen had plenty of plates, cups, and cooking supplies. Beds were comfortable and clean.
Cons: I wish it had basic cooking items like salt and pepper, flour, condiments. It would have also been nice to have some beach towels and a couple of washing machine pods to wash some laundry.
Make sure you reserve your beach chairs way ahead of time if you want to rent ones. If not, bring a $100 cash and you might be able to get the grumpy rude young men to get you a chair."

"The perfect house - We loved this house so much. There was plenty of space for our family of 5, plus in-laws that came for a few days. My favorite part was how shaded and peaceful the back porch was."

"Don’t let some of these older reviews scare you from booking this place. Being an Airbnb host myself, I have high expectations. And this place was perfect for my family (2 kids, 2 adults) and my friends family (3 kids, 2 adults). The decor is beautiful, the house had everything we needed, and my only complaint was the lack of outdoor cushions on the patio furniture. But we would definitely stay here again!! The pool is fabulous and the beach was so close. We loved walking and biking everywhere all week. Thanks for a great stay!"

"Better than advertised!!! Beautiful home away from home. Highly recommend!
Pool and beach access easily by walking or tram or bikes!
If you have a toddler make sure to plan ahead for a bike, wagon, or carrier for easier transporting."

"Dock Holiday is a beautiful home in a fantastic location! I loved the stylish decor, fabulous appliances and great bedroom layout. We did have some trouble checking into Seacrest and getting wrist bands in a timely manner, so make sure you call security right away when you arrive. Also, no wagons or tents allowed on Seacrest beach, which I wasn’t expecting. Know the rules before heading out with your gear. Lastly, the beach space was very crowded/limited in mid-July. We ended up going just down the road to Inlet Beach (public access) and had a couple of wonderful days there with plenty of space."

"Great location on 30A - We really loved staying at this beach house! It was very clean, nicely decorated and a convenient walking distance to many shops, restaurants, and the beach. The shuttle service to the beach is awesome and all the employees are so nice and professional. The rental company was also very easy to reach and super helpful. Though we didn't have any problems! The only downside was the beach access available to the property was slam packed every day. It was difficult just walking through the crowd. It's unfortunate that property owners along the beach are trying to claim the beach as their private property. There are signs posted for quite a distance on either side of the Seacrest beach access and it makes finding space to sit and be by the ocean very difficult during peak season. Beachfront owners have hired security to patrol the beach and ask you to move if you stop for too long or put down a single beach towel in the sand despite no one using the beach in front of their properties. That being said, I called the police department and they said that as long as you're sitting with one toe in the wet sand that you are ok. The police don't make any arrests for sitting approximate to the wet sand along the entire ocean front and beach front property owners aren't allowed to harass beach goers. Hope that helps any other vacationers!"

"Seacrest is a great community tucked between ALYS and Rosemary beach. This house was super clean. Feels like it was completely renovated in the last 12 months. It worked well for 2 families of 4."
