About this property

Close to beach, Gulf View Home, Community Pool/Small Pup Friendly/Golf Cart

Welcome to Sea Wink, a relaxed coastal retreat designed for easy beach days and laid-back evenings along 30A.

This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers multiple balconies, inviting outdoor living spaces, and glimpses of the Gulf from the upper level. Whether you're sipping coffee on the deck, gathering with family after a day at the beach, or catching a colorful sunset, Turtle Sundae is the perfect place to settle into vacation mode.

The first floor features a comfortable primary suite with a king bed, private bath, soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and access to a spacious deck. A second guest suite offers a queen trundle bed with a pull-out twin, a full-size bed, a private bath, and access to the front deck, making it ideal for families or groups traveling together. A full-size laundry room is also conveniently located on this level.

Upstairs, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area serves as the heart of the home. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, while the adjacent deck provides a pleasant spot to enjoy the coastal breeze and partial Gulf views. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped for everything from quick breakfasts to family dinners. The living room features a queen sleeper sofa, providing additional sleeping accommodations for extra guests. The third bedroom is located on the second floor and offers a queen bed and twin bunk beds along with convenient bathroom access and a private balcony.

Located a short 6-7 minute stroll from the Gulf View Heights beach access, or a 3-minute ride in the included golf cart, Sea Wink makes it easy to spend your days enjoying the sugar-white sand and emerald waters that make this stretch of the Gulf Coast so special. Guests can also enjoy access to the community pool, perfect for cooling off after a day in the sun.

The home includes parking for up to 2 vehicles and comes with a complimentary 6-seater golf cart, making it easy to explore the area. It’s a short walk to the corner, where you’ll find Gulfview Snack Shack and Reef Beach Services for bike rentals and beach toys. Nearby restaurants include Local Catch, Mimmo’s, Pizza by the Sea, Papa Surf, Shunk Gulley, Shelby's, and The Perfect Pig, among others.

We look forward to welcoming you to Sea Wink and helping you create lasting memories at the beach.

The house was a perfect location to many restaurants, stores and the beach. Having the golf cart and renting bikes was the best. The house had everything we needed for cooking purposes. This was an awesome spring break for us 5.

The location is great and balconies are great! The carpet is kind of nasty and the trundle bed upstairs was dirty with particles of something all over it. Host was very responsive to issues the first day. That was great. Be sure if you have elderly that they can climb stairs as the main living space is upstairs. Overall it was a great time and place.

Thanks for the review. I’m glad you had a great time. I am surprised by the review, when we spoke you said the house was amazing. The bedroom carpets have been deep cleaned, I will put the other item top of mind for the cleaners. Thanks.

House was exactly as advertised: clean and close to the beach. Plenty of beds. The golf cart was a great perk. Host was very communicative and easy to work with. The deck had great views and warm sun when it was breezy/chilly at the beach. Would absolutely stay here again. Good time had by all.
