Amazing location!!

Perfect spot for our annual family beach vacation! We loved the outdoor spaces and the kitchen! The proximity to the beach/ ocean was fantastic and felt very secluded. The kids/dads caught 9 pompano fish, casting from the beach out front.. a dream for them!! Added bonuses were the beach toys and chair/ umbrella setups!! We loved it all!!

Great House, Great Location!

We loved our stay here and would definitely stay again! The neighborhood was peaceful and the beach was never crowded which made for a relaxing vacation. If we wanted to go to the restaurants in Grayton Beach it was an easy walk along the beach. Although most nights we cooked our dinner and the kitchen was well stocked and great for that! We also loved the layout of the house. We have a daughter in a wheelchair so it was really nice to have some bedrooms on the main living floor. Thank you for sharing your home!

Best Beach House for Families

We absolutely LOVED this house!!! The location was just perfect for our family. The house was beautifully decorated and had the most well stocked kitchen!!! We had everything we needed right there. We will most certainly rebook as soon as we get dates for our family to return. You could tell that the owners took every convenience needed at the beach in account when seeing this house up. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous home❤️❤️

Another great stay

This was our second Thanksgiving at this beautiful home and it may be our favorite house of the dozen or so we've stayed in over the past 25 years. There are many spots - inside and outside - to enjoy the most gorgeous beach, the sunrise and the sunset. The kitchen was well-equipped for many of us to prepare and share a Thanksgiving meal. There are many comfortable common areas to be together but lots of space for privacy too. We had a couple of questions for the homeowner during the week and she was easy to reach and very accomodating. We'd highly recommend this house for a family or group getaway and would gladly go back again.

Spring break

We had multiple families for spring break with kids ranging in age from 15 - 18 years old. The kitchen is well accommodated and the view is breathtaking! Living on the ocean for a week was incredible. They had beach chair service everyday. Grayton Beach is a fantastic little town which was gratefully less crowded then Seaside. I would go back again!

Location, Location

We have been traveling to 30A area for over 25 years, and this was one of the best locations we've ever stayed. We loved how the house is nestled between the dunes of the state park areas. Simply beautiful! The large porch area easily accommodated our large group of 12, and the views were amazing. We also loved all being able to fit at the large dining table. The owner was great to work with and was quick to respond to any questions. The beach service was wonderful, and the beach was not overly crowded. We truly enjoyed our time at Seas the Day, and would love to visit again in the future.

Great Week at Grayton Beach

We had a total of 13 which included 5 kids under 4 years old. The house was updated, layout was perfect for us. Large family kitchen was well designed and became the gathering spot in the house. The beach chair guys showed up every morning and set up 8 chairs and 4 umbrellas by the water. There's a Publix about 2 miles from the house that is pretty new which had a section full of beach toys. Overall great house at a great location we would definitely rent the house again!

A 10/10 🏠 Home!!

We took our immediate family ( 6 of us) , our 7month old granddaughter and my mom. My aunt and uncle came for a few days too. We rented an electric beach wheelchair for my mom - that made all the difference and she had the time of her life. This home is wonderful! Having so many balconies was a treat. We also didn’t realize we would have beach service daily !! That was fantastic! Kara ( homeowner) was quick to respond to any questions I had. I loved this home and so did my family !

Perfect Thanksgiving

Seas the Day may just be our favorite spot after spending over 25 years of celebrating Thanksgiving on 30A. The open floor plan and breathtaking ocean views were a perfect home base for our week-long family get together. Other family members rented houses nearby and Seas the Day was an ideal location for gathering together throughout the week. The house had everything we needed for cooking and dining, conversation, games, puzzles, and art, and even infant and toddler play. We had a couple of questions for Kara during the week and she responded immediately. Unlike many of the surrounding beaches, the beach was uncrowded and peaceful and so easy to access! Thank you for wonderful memories!

Family Weekend

Property was perfect for 5 adult couples and 1 toddler. Beach access couldn’t have been better. Found the house to have great sound proofing as with so many people you should have heard more noise. Kitchen well equipped with pots, pans, glasses, silverware etc. Stove top a little odd in that 2 burners on one side of an extremely large sink and 2 on other side. That was a little inconvenient. Owner quick to respond and answers all questions. All in all we would come back to same house. Thank you.

We have been seized by Seas the Day

For decades, our group of 13 women have enjoyed Grayton Beach and, especially, Seas the Day, for our annual get-together. The house has many areas, inside and out, that permit our entire group to enjoy each other's company in sun and in shade, as well as a dining area that permits all of us to sit at the same table. The spacious kitchen allows 3+ chefs to work together and the "drinks specialist" to prepare and pour libations. Lastly, somehow Seas the Day provided vivid blue skies and gulf breezes for the entire week, with rain showers occurring only after dark. We are looking forward to our return in 2025!
