About this property

174 Feet to Beach Access in Seaside, FL Proper! Balcony + 2 Adult Bikes!

1 Queen

Cabana Babe offers the perfect Seaside beach retreat for two, just 174 feet from the private beach at Natchez Pavilion and a short 5-minute walk to the heart of Seaside’s Central Square. From your front door, explore over 35 shops and restaurants and fully experience the charm of Seaside.

This charming guest cottage sits behind the main home, Cabana Fever, and is accessed via a sandy footpath leading to a private picket fence entrance.

At the entrance, two Adirondack chairs provide the ideal setting for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Inside, you'll find everything needed for a relaxing beach getaway, including a cozy living area with a sofa, club chair, large plasma TV, and a small dining table for two.

The galley kitchen is fully equipped with a two-burner electric stovetop, compact oven, under-counter fridge, small sink, microwave, and Keurig. Adjacent to the kitchen, a half bathroom and a stackable washer and dryer are tucked away in a convenient laundry closet.

Upstairs, the bright and inviting queen primary bedroom boasts an ensuite bathroom and a private open-air balcony. The room features a chaise lounger, dresser, built-in storage on both sides of the bed, and a flat-screen TV. The ensuite bathroom includes a single vanity and a walk-in shower.

Step out onto the open-air balcony, where custom-built bench seating for two is surrounded by palm trees—a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee while listening to the nearby waves.

Cabana Babe is an ideal couples’ getaway in a prime Seaside location. Park your car, walk to everything, and enjoy all that Seaside has to offer.

beach retreat

What started as an extended weekend at a beach retreat turned into a very great experience. The small two story home was plenty for us and a great surprise when we started researching the Truman show while we were there. Clean home, beautiful town, great experience.

Bait & Switch

Loved it overall. Great little place for two and great location. Minutes to the beach. What I didn’t like was that when booking it was a 11am check-out, reminder notification changed that to 10am and finally the on-site sign-off docs changed it yet again to 9am!!! Be transparent. Set expectations.

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: Love Cabana Babe. Close to the beach and pool. Walking distance to shops and restaurants in Seaside and Watercolor. Love the Wine Bar in Watercolor. Manager was great. Returned our call immediately on Sunday evening after dinner when our door code didn’t work. Would be nice to have a couple more coffee cups, wine glasses and drink cups. Just had two of each and really don’t mind washing by hand. More cups would be nice.

Charming and Convenient, Perfect for a CoupleWe enjoyed our stay at Cabana Envy. Everything was so convenient. The pool was a very short distance to the right of our little Cabana and to the left just across the street and up a private entrance was the beach. Cabana Babe was all we needed as home for a week. Whimsically furnished and everything you needed for settling in for a getaway by the sea. 3rd day in we had explored the area and had our routine set. I highly recommend Cabanna Babe for a couple and the larger house looked perfect for a family. We hope to return again and want to stay in Cabana Envy!

Cabana Babe Aug 2024 stay

Rating Details: The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not a bad place. Great location. However, it is overpriced for what it is. Outdated decor (+ everything else), and definitely needs a remodel. We found a used zyn pouch in the dishwasher on the first day. Killed multiple roaches throughout the week we stayed. Found mouse droppings in the bathroom sink on our last night. The kitchen is very cramped for space and not very functional. So, I am not happy about the price I paid for this dirty experience. Not sure the pros outweigh the cons on this one. At this price, would recommend booking elsewhere.

Romantic getaway.

The property was just what we needed. A little get away to enjoy all that Seaside offers. Parking is tight but we parked on the street right outside of the main house. Had to walk down the short driveway to our cottage. Unique and cute cottage. We never cooked at home but we did use the washer and dryer. Very quick walk to the beach and pool. We leveraged the coupon for free bike rentals and enjoyed exploring the town. Perfect place for 2 people wanting a different experience than the traditional condo experience. Oh by the way - check in was great - we arrived later than expected and everything was simple and smooth to get into our cottage.
