Guest Access:
You will access your room via the smart lock on the door anytime during your stay. The code will be sent to you prior to check-in (easy-peasy!) and will be functional from your check-in time to check-out time.

You will be hard-pressed to find a spot that you can't walk to - there are some awesome restaurants and activities right nearby!

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood has several businesses on the road front and residential properties beyond that. You’re only several blocks from shopping and local attractions, with the Bay and beaches on Okaloosa island only a few minutes drive.

Getting Around:
Parking is along the street, on the property side Gipson Pl (west side) and a driveway with one handicap spot. It’s best to have a car to get around but Uber and Lyft are available, and there’s a ton of options in walking distance.

Other Things to Note:
Seaside Escape is a limited-service multi-unit property, meaning we do not have management on-site. Think of it as 8 individual units, just located together. We DO have a reliable cleaning staff that is on-site every day and who can be available if really needed. But we set it up so you can access extra supplies as needed in the laundry/supply room. And we’re always a call or message away if you need us

Other guests will be present, there are 8 separate rooms in the building. So if you are looking for complete seclusion, this may not be the best option. But what we lack for seclusion we make up for a boutique experience in a beautifully newly decorated and newly renovated room!

Please be aware that there are other guests staying in other units and unfortunately, sometimes noise can be heard because of thin walls.

Please note that Early Check-In / Late Check-Out is not guaranteed. We will do our best to clean and sanitize the unit quickly if you desire an early check-in.

The property is located one block off the main strip of Eglin Parkway, tucked between 2 other businesses in a regentrifying area, meaning it's an older part of town that new life is being brought into with new developments and quality remodels like Seaside Escape. And though the property is well-lit, the street is dark at night so it may seem eerie to some. There's also a club on the next block that can be a little noisy on Saturday nights. The police and fire department are only 1 block away so it is a safe neighborhood - we just want to make you aware of the area!

For your safety and security, guest screening by a third party is a mandatory requirement for all reservations. Guests are also required to sign a rental agreement to make sure that house policies are being observed. Please reach out to us if you need to view the agreement before booking.

GENERAL:
Quiet hours are 10 PM - 8 AM. Excessive noise that disturbs others' stay may be grounds to terminate the booking.

SMOKING:
Smoking in the unit will result in a $250 fine and a cancellation of your stay, without refund, for causing smoke damage and a smell that is extremely hard and costly to remove.

NOTE:
Breaking any of these rules can result in a cancellation of your booking and is at the discretion of the Host.
Failure to comply with one or more of our policies may result to extra charges or eviction.

We welcome one furry friend per reservation, with a $100 pet fee to ensure a comfortable stay for everyone.

We feel that transparency is very important and want to give you an accurate picture of your stay. Many of these factors are out of our control, so we ask for your understanding when reviewing the property. Either way, we are here to make your stay as comfortable as possible, so if there is anything we can do during your stay, you just let us know.

We look forward to hosting you at Seaside Escape!

Interaction with Guests:
We have cleaning staff who can be available when needed or for extenuating circumstances/emergencies. Otherwise, you will have a contact-less check-in and checkout procedure - easy as pie. Extra supplies and amenity items are stored on-site for you and if needed we'll share instructions on how you can access them.

The best little place!
My boyfriend & I stayed a week at this property! The room was very clean! We had no issues with noise & the lights outside made us feel safe coming in at night. Very short drive to public beach access! The room had everything we needed & we were asked several times by staff on the property if we needed anything! A 10/10 experience & would stay here again!
Stayed 7 nights in May 2024
