About this property
Sunsplash - Next to Pool, Beach & Rosemary w/ Rooftop Deck.
Sunsplash is conveniently located right at the front of the Seacrest neighborhood, but not directly on 30A so no street noise. It's directly across from the 12,000 square foot pool and very close (~100yds) to the beach and the shops/restaurants in Rosemary and Alys. If you look at the map below, you'll see that it's the second house on the right when you enter the neighborhood.
Sunsplash has lots of privacy -- especially on the rooftop deck where you can enjoy panoramic views of the Gulf and spectacular sunsets. It’s on a quiet cul-de-sac where kids can play and ride their bikes. And, it's just a 3-minute stroll down a private, palm-lined path to the beach. If you prefer not to walk, a complimentary golf cart will pick you up at your doorstep. It's also just a few steps away from the shops, restaurants and live music at Peddler's Pavilion (~50 yards), Rosemary and Alys.
We love to cook and entertain, so we've stocked the kitchen with everything you'll need to prepare a gourmet meal. The large, open style kitchen, dining and living room layout makes it easy and fun for everyone to enjoy meals and hang out together. Relax in front of the 60" HD TV with 5.1 Surround Sound and watch a movie or listen to music. There’s also high-speed gigabit fiber internet access and WiFi, and a complete selection of board games for the kids.
Sunsplash sleeps 12 comfortably in beds with four large, well appointed bedrooms, including the 3rd floor ‘family suite,’ each with its own full bath and TV.
1st Floor: - King Bedroom w/ TV - Full bathroom - Kitchen, Dining Room & Living Room - Covered front porch with swing and rocking chair
2nd Floor: - King Bedroom w/ full bathroom, TV and covered balcony - Kids Bedroom w/ full bathroom, 4 twin bunk-beds, TV and balcony
3rd Floor Family Suite: - Queen Bedroom w/ TV and windows on five sides, plus a private balcony - Suite area with day bed and trundle (two twin beds) and full bathroom - Large 200 sq ft roof-top deck with Gulf views… the perfect place for sunset cocktails! - Wet bar with granite counter-top, mini-fridge and TV
Seacrest is an ideal place for families and people of all ages. Walk the cobble-stone streets in the Seacrest neighborhood, bike along scenic 30-A, enjoy the free concerts and outdoor movies, dine at casual and gourmet restaurants, and let the kids run off to the ice cream parlor and candy store.
A 15 minute car ride East will take you to Pier Park. This indoor/outdoor mall boasts a magnificent new movie theater, great restaurants, fun shops and tons of activities for kids and families. Seaside, Watercolor, and Grayton Beach are approximately a 10-to-15 minute drive away. Silver Sands Outlet Mall, Baytowne Wharf, Destin, waterparks and several golf courses are all within a short drive.
We hope you enjoy our beach house and make wonderful, lasting memories. Fix yourself a drink, or take your favorite book and head upstairs to the roof-top deck and chill… it’s going to be a GREAT vacation!

We had a great stay overall, with an amazing location and fantastic access to both the beach and pool. The home itself is a bit dated but was fairly clean. The owner was very responsive and even offered to have the cleaning crew return, which we really appreciated. While not everything is always within their control off-site, they did everything they could to make it right. We would definitely recommend this rental again—it’s hard to beat the location.

Thanks for the kind words. We look forward to having you visit again!
The property was just as the pictures posted! It was perfect for our family of 11. The location was excellent and very close to everything. Made staying very nice for us with little ones. I highly recommend this house. You will enjoy every single moment while there. We will definitely return !!!!
Overall good experience. Easy access to pool, beach, and restaurants. House was not super clean, a towel left on porch from previous stay, there was a clogged sink upstairs, and random maintenance items like loose light switches / without screws, damaged interior door, etc.

Hi Kevin, sorry for the issues you mentioned. Unfortunately, the prior guests over Spring Break left the house a mess! That said, I’ve asked my cleaning service to be more diligent and my property manager to look for and repair any loose light switches, etc. As for the sink, my handyman said the stopper was just disconnected, so that was an easy fix (not clogged). Greg
Our family had a beach great trip and enjoyed staying at Sunsplash. This house is very well located between beach and pool within the Seacrest community. Plenty of living room space, nice bedrooms and great balconies. Great week - would definitely recommend staying here!

Michael,
Thanks for your positive review. Let me know if there's anything we can do to earn 5 stars next time!
Best,
Liz & Greg
This rental is perfect for large parties. We had 2 families staying in this property. This house is directly across from the pool and just minutes to the beach via the walkway. The property manager/owner is so responsive and easy to communicate with. The rental is located right between all the action in Rosemary and Alys Beach. Publix is a quick drive to grab essentials. We had a great stay! I would recommend this vacation rental and would return again.
This property was in the best location! Walking distance to Alys or Rosemary beach without the price tag. This house is near the entrance of the neighborhood. So it’s really close to the beach. It’s directly across from the pool. The kids pool is fantastic! There are a ton of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Very easy to book and check in. Highly recommend.

Thanks so much for your complimentary review and for choosing our Sunsplash beach house for your vacation again!
This house was the PERFECT house and location for our annual family vacation!! So clean!! Nice owners!! House is very close to the pool so it was perfect to go back and forth for snacks and naps!! Definitely recommend! We will be back!!
This was our second stay at Sunsplash. Owner is very communicative and responsive and the house is in a perfect location - just a few minutes walk to the beach and all that Seacrest, Alys, and Rosemary have to offer. The house has very comfortable beds, a kitchen well stocked with cooking supplies, and lovely porches for hanging out. We will be back.
House was in a perfect location- pool across the street, stores/restaurants a few minutes walk away & easy access to tram to get to the beach! We had a great time cooking in the kitchen, relaxing on the couch and utilizing the fun beach toys/chairs. I would definitely recommend staying at this house to other friends and would come back again! Thanks for letting us make memories in your home!

Location is outstanding.
We just returned from Seacrest today and both the house and the location are outstanding. The location clearly makes this property an attractive one. I would recommend that 30A travelers take a long look at this home. We had no issues so we did not have to contact the owners but they sent an email prior to our trip with email webpages of local establishments. Our favorites were the Cowgirl Kitchen and Bentley's Happy Hour. It is our fifth stay at Seacrest and the location of this house was the best.

Best location in neighborhood and probably all of Seacreast
Sunsplash was a great house and the owners were awesome to work with. The house is the best location in the neighborhood with the beach and pool a stone throws away. We rented bikes and I think we went three days without getting into the car. So many restaurants, shops, coffee shops all near by. Literally right in the middle between Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach we couldn't ask for more. House was clean and functional for multiple families vacationing and the kitchen had everything you could need. Oh yea and the beach and water perfect.

Sunsplash exceeded our expectations! To start off, the host provided all the info we needed, and was prompt in responding to any questions we had. The home was absolutely amazing! I won’t go room by room, but it was clean, beautifully decorated and we felt like we were at home. Enough space for two families to live comfortably. The pool was beautiful and the beach was a very short walk. There were lots of shops within walking distance and everyone was so polite. We couldn’t have asked for a better home or location. The host was great and we would definitely stay here again! Thanks!
We enjoyed the location to all things! Beach, pool, and eateries are all very walkable. Great recommendations in the binder. Layout was perfect and the rooftop patio was a nice hang in the evening!
Upon arrival, we did have to wipe down counters and sweep. The kitchen must have been missed.
Coffee on the front porch was peaceful. Siding could use a sweep with all the webs.
Loved having laundry on site!
Overall, we enjoyed!

Fun at the Beach
The property is in a great location. The property manager responded very quickly to our concerns. The house was not clean at all. Bathrooms were terrible. By reading the description I was under the impression there were four mater bedrooms but there were only two master bedroom and a total of four bathrooms.

Robert, I'm sorry to hear this, I wish you had let me know about the cleaning upon your arrival so I could've done something about it. As for the confusion about the number of master bedrooms, this is the first time in over 12 years that that's ever happened. The "Rooms & Beds" section of the description on VRBO clearly describes what types of beds are in each room.
We really enjoyed our stay at Sunsplash at Seacrest Beach. The location of the property couldn't have been any better. You are walking distance from many restaurants, the beach, the pool, bicycle rental, and just about anything else you can think of. In the main living area, you can open the big doors up in the front and just enjoy the fresh air! We had ample room for everyone and we were comfortable. The only reason for a "4" rating is that the house is a little worn in spots. The owner was attentive and dealt with any issues we had. It was very clean, just worn in some areas. He continues to invest in the property and it is evident. For example, he has just invested in the bathrooms and floors. Overall, it was good value for the location and we would consider staying there again!
No dryer for 4.5 days
First floor bedroom no black out curtains for bright street light, no black out curtains in any room, security wagon flashing lights at night come on brightly
Carpet in first floor bedroom,worn out and dirty
3rd floor tumble bed broken wood frame
Very limited plastic bowls and plates for kids
Few normal size spoons
One very old and burnt cookie sheet
Shabby looking in need of painting and mud repairs for nicks and holes in walls
Black mold on first floor mirror in bathroom
We expected better for what we paid and asked to be compensated to the management

Linda, I wish you had let me know about these issues when you were there so I could have addressed them at the time. I certainly will now. I’m having the whole house repainted and the carpet replaced with tile. I’ll also order more silverware, cookie sheets, plastic cups and a new mirror.
Had a fabulous week at Sunsplash! Greg was responsive to texts, calls, and emails prior to our arrival and very accommodating. The house had new flooring and fresh paint. The kitchen was very well equipped. We all loved being so close to the pool, shops, and restaurants. The short walk to the beach was easy. The beach was packed. We got there at 6:15 most mornings to stake our spot near the water. The pictures online need to be updated. I understand the floors and paint are new and the owner probably hasn't had a chance to show that in the pictures. The kitchen cabinets don't look anything like the pics. I would have like to have seen more pictures of the interior of the house rather than the exterior, common areas, or general area (pool, beach, peddlers pavilion). It was difficult to identify which bedrooms were masters. There were pictures of only 2 of the bathrooms. There were some beach chairs and beach toys available for our use. The extra large washer and dryer were great. Loved the outside shower.

Thanks, glad you had a fun time! Yes, I plan to update the photos with the new flooring, paint and artwork as soon as the season ends (there was no time to do so because it’s been rented continuously since I completed the upgrades :-)
About the host
Hosted by Greg Davis
I've traveled to many islands and far-away destinations, but it's hard to find another place that has the sugar-white sands, clear waters and fun activities that you'll find in Seacrest.
Why they chose this property
The best thing about Seacrest is that it is so kid-friendly and there's so much to do, from going to the beach and pool to paddle boarding or kayaking on the nearby coastal lakes.
What makes this property unique
It's so convenient (steps from the beach, pool, restaurants, shops, etc.) and there's lots to do for kids and adults.
