About this property

1 Block to Beach in Seaside, FL - Porches and Deck + 2 Adult Bikes!

2 King, 1 Queen, 3 Twin - Sleeps 9

Rêve de Mer is a family-favorite beach cottage in a prime Seaside, Florida location—just a 176-yard walk to the private beach and a 4-minute stroll to the Seaside Amphitheater, surrounded by over 35 shops and restaurants! Recently renovated, this private residence is sure to become a crowd favorite.

Upon arrival, you’ll find ample parking in front of the home, including a designated driveway for one car. A spacious front porch welcomes you with rocking chairs, two Adirondack chairs, and a bench swing—the perfect spot for your morning coffee.

Inside, the living room to the left features a large sofa, two club chairs, and a wall-mounted 4K UHD flat-screen TV—ideal for family movie nights or watching the game. Just off the renovated kitchen is the adjacent dining area, which comfortably seats 6–8. A breakfast bar, which seats two more, offers a great view of the kitchen. The fully renovated kitchen boasts quartz stone countertops, all-new stainless steel appliances, a four-burner gas stove, and a large double-door refrigerator—perfect for preparing family meals at home. Nearby, a renovated hall bath includes a vanity and provides access to one of the two outdoor showers.

On the first floor, there’s sleeping space for three. The primary king bedroom includes an ensuite renovated bathroom with marble vanity, a tub/shower combo, and a luxurious rain shower head. The room also features large closets, a spacious dresser, and a private wall-mounted flat-screen TV. Just down the hall is a bonus sleeping nook with an additional twin bed.

Stairs off the kitchen lead to the second floor, which includes three more bedrooms and a large open sundeck running the length of the home’s front. The second upstairs bedroom features a king bed, a closet, and access to the shared sundeck—complete with chaise loungers and serene treetop views. The third bedroom includes a queen bed and also shares access to the front sundeck. The fourth bedroom offers two twin beds. All three upstairs bedrooms share a renovated full bathroom with a single vanity and a large glass-enclosed walk-in shower featuring both a rain shower wand and an overhead rain shower head.

Off the rear of the home is a screened-in porch with outdoor dining for four and a large, lush, fenced backyard. A gas grill on the rear porch makes for easy, laid-back afternoons spent grilling. Additional features include two enclosed outdoor showers and a designated laundry room on the first floor with a full-size washer and dryer.

The home is stocked with puzzles, games, books, and music, giving guests plenty of entertainment options during their stay.

Charming home close to beach, shops and fitness center

This seaside home is full of charm. 2 screened in porches and nestled against a little walking path that will take you to town or fitness center. Fantastic outdoor showers and just a block from the beach. My whole family loved it.

Great Cottage, Maybe Skip Spring Break

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: Overall the cottage was great. The cottage was clean, porches are really nice for relaxing, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the beach, playground, and pools are a very short walk. If we had one complaint about the cottage, it would be the hot water heater. We could get 2-3 short showers at a time out. For a house that sleeps 9 or 10, it would be nice to have a better hot water heater. We just managed by using different schedules between our two families that stayed there.We did have some problems with the neighbors and had to call security (first time experiencing this in the 15 years we have been coming to Seaside). Lots of underage drinking and one night there was a shouting match at 11am with profanity and use of racial epithets that woke our young children. We have never been to Seaside during spring break, so it may be that (there were droves of young people out very late). I don't think we will return during spring break, we will stick to our normal quiet summers from now.The cottage is great though!

Great location but too expensive and needs updating!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I stayed at Reve de Mer for spring break this year. It was our first visit to this area of FL. Pros: The location of the house was great...one block from the beach, two blocks from the square, food trucks and shops. The house has a great front porch. Cons: Prior to arriving we assumed we had 3 pools to choose from when in actuality there is only one pool for families. There is an adult only pool and a pool from a 70's horror movie...half covered and very old looking. Even the pool we were able to go to was dated. The house was clean but the bathrooms were dated and old...the shower in the master needs some real attention. We had several issues throughout the week, a couple our own (my daughters locked themselves out of their rooms twice) and a couple the house (back door wouldn't close, the ice maker never turned off so ice would pour out of it when you opened it). The bedroom doors have turn locks so my 8 yr old twins would lock the other out but then close the door behind them. They can't be the first kids to do this...new door knobs seem like an easy fix. If my review seems isn't. We paid $7000 to stay in Reve de Mer...A LOT OF MONEY for a VERY outdated house. We booked last minute because of COVID and waiting to hear what our schools were doing. I get it...last minute means you get taken advantage of, unfortunately. But if you're thinking of staying in the area with kids...go to Watercolor. The pools are much more family friendly. If thinking about Reve de Mer...don't pay over $3000 for the week there are too many other choices in the area unless, like us, you don't have a choice.

The Reve de Mer is by far our favorite cottage at Seaside

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: We have stayed at several different cottages in Seaside and the Reve de Mer is hands down our favorite. The cleanliness, layout of the cottage and location to the beach and town is why we loved it so much. The A/C and the appliances were in great working condition. This was the perfect place for my family and grandkids to enjoy quality time at Seaside. The staff at Homeowners Collection were awesome from our first inquiry, answers questions all the way to the time we left. We will definitely be coming back to the Reve de Mer. My family would like to thank the cottage owner for sharing your "Dream by the Sea" with us. The memories of our vacation will last us a lifetime.

Nice home but had some issues

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Home was nice and fairly clean with the exception of glasses found outside with mold growing in them and old shampoo bottles thrown on the ground near the outside showers. The oven needed repairs which weren't completed so it was hard to cook our meals. The emergency lights in the house had to be taken down by maintenance due to going off and on. The layout of the home was very nice and it was cozy. The master bed was VERY hard and not very comfy for my pregnant wife or I.
