I know the location of the first house, in Water's Edge....but it's not clear where the second home is located. The general location of "Seacrest" could be used to describle a 3-5 mile area, I don't think they are within walking distance....

Seacrest Beach's largest Neighborhood is called Seacrest Beach North or Seacrest Beach II (I've seen it both ways -- can't remember what VRBO says). It's a big neighborhood -- with lots of large rental houses -- and I'm sure you could find houses very close to each other. I'd find one house that you liked and then ask the owner if she/he can recommend some houses close by. It's a great area with a huge pool and lots of things within walking distance -- even better if you have a few bikes!

Hey Ktschris, I agree that it doesn't look like those two houses are near to each other and that "Seacrest" is kind of a nebulous designation. Water's Edge is beautiful and next door to Rosemary; try searching for homes in Water's Edge if you want Gulf front or close to it.
Don't know if you are interested in Seacrest Beach North, but we are good friends with our next door neighbors and have marketed our homes as a package deal. We are near the front of the development with exceptional views, though of course you do have to walk or take a tram across the street to the beach. (You get to use the 12,000 sq foot pool though). PM me if you have any interest. Otherwise, good luck!

Kt, we stayed at Memories at the Shore three years ago. It's a beautiful home and great for a group. We had use of the 12,000 sq ft pool also. The walk to the beach was still quite a walk even tho the home is gulf front. It kind of sits on a cliff and you have to walk across the scrubby lot to get to the walkover and then it's kind of steep. I never wanted to make too many trips back and forth. PM me if you have any questions!

You might try this one. This couple owns 2 units next door to each other in Sunset Beach which is on the beach side of 30A in front of Beachcrest North.

Click on their other rentals to see the other unit. The one pictured is also pet friendly. Their rates include all fees and taxes.

Thank you guys for all the great input! We are not limiting ourselfs to Seacrest Beach, those 2 house just seem to fit our "needs" Gulf Front.
Skipper...that house is beautiful, but unfortantley we were spoiled last year, and really want gulf front.
Would anyone happen to know the house to the right (from the beach) of Pineapple Palace in Seagrove?
Thanks again you guys.

Hey, I think Pineapple Palace is run by Classic Builders. They have a bunch of properties that they have built and then rent out, many of them gulf front. Check out classicbuildersonline.com. They handle their own rentals. I think there is a Pineapple Palace east and west?

Just Curious OL, you stayed at Waters Edge but had use of the 12,000 sq. ft pool at Seacrest. What rental company did you use???

At that time we rented through Beach Rentals of South Walton. It's still advertised in the description that you have use of the pool. :idontno: We had actually rented a home south of 30-A, Bare Necessities, with a pool and when we arrived it wasn't ready. It was a new build and had some last minute problems I guess. They made a substitution with Memories for us. We didn't have a pool on site but the house was bigger and gulf front and we weren't charged more so it all worked out. Too bad we didn't venture down to the pool a little sooner though. We didn't swim there until Thursday and we had to leave Saturday. The kids loved it but we WERE there for the beach!!!

We rented the same house for 3 years from Beach Rentals of South Walton. The first year...after they advertiised the house with a pool...it wasn't finished. Then the next 2 years, it was out of service. We still loved the house and the location, but not happy that the house was not as advertised. Always wondered if we should have asked for a discount...never did.

i believe that the hoa mgmt of Seacrest beach has contacted them about this issue and that this was done a couple of years ago. If this was recent (as in the last 3 months then I want to know) mmmmmmmm.....

No it's not OK for it to continue and I would say that seacrest beach homeowners might contact them and ask them if they have any of their pool passes laying around. Each pass is numbered and it you didn't right down your number, John at the Seacrest Office has it I'm sure.
That's not cool at all! The pool is crowded enough.

Cork,
At one of the last BOD meetings this subject was brought up. THe management company did contact BROSW on this matter. I believe that next season there is going to be a different way to check the pool passes.

I know that it was talked about but I didn't know that they definitely contacted them. Hopefully, they can be scanned and if one is lost, then it's deactivated.
