Renting In SeaCrest Beach Florida

by Ryan

When renting a property in the SeaCrest Beach Florida on the Florida Panhandle, you may want to look at options other than beachfront. The Rental Agencies will have you focus on beachfront, and don’t let me tell you that beachfront is not great, but you should look at all options. You may be surprised at the accommodations you can get with a short stroll to the beach, that will save you hundreds and maybe even thousands of dollars on your vacation.

Most Rental Agencies receive a 25-30% commission on rentals, so naturally the agents are going to try to sell the most expensive rentals. And again, if you can afford it and you can’t live without looking at the beach the whole week, you should rent beachfront. But if you are trying to get the most for your money while having great accommodations with all the amenities, but don’t mind a short walk to the beach, you should consider properties on the west side of 30A. At about ½ to 1/3 the price of beachfront, you can rent a three bedroom, two bathroom condominium with everything you could ever want in a rental, and the money you save, your family can enjoy all the fun activities including dining out without spending any more than you would for the beachfront accommodations.

SeaCrest Beach offers a fabulous 12,000 square foot community pool to most of their guests. This amenity gives you the option of the beach during the day, and the pool in the early evening. The pool is more than anyone could expect and you will forget about the short walk you take to the beach. Again, with the economy the way it is, the money you save can make a huge difference.

For those who can not make a walk to the beach but still would like to save and stay in a great location, The village of South Walton offers a free shuttle to and from the beach. This will accommodate those who cannot make the short walk.

Remember to look at all of your options when considering a rental at SeaCrest Beach. You may be surprised at the savings you will find without giving up the amenities.
