Beautiful home with beautiful views

The place is very nice. We all enjoyed our stay very much. It's close to shops and restaurants. The doggies enjoyed their stay. The breakfast bar was nice to watch the waves while eating. Beds were cozy and the place is like what is on line. Very nice!

Perfect Storm!

We weathered the tropical storm durning our stay. Front row seats to the waves! This place was perfect. It was clean, perfect for the pups(I love that you can fully enclose the deck so the dogs had a safe place to play and enjoy the outside.), and it was quiet. There are no houses on either side of it. We definitely want to come back!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Sea Yawl. It was precisely as described and photographed. The views were amazing and it was very nice not to have neighbors directly beside us on either side because of our dogs who like to “talk a lot”. The amenities were great and the deck was perfect. I gave a 4 star instead of a 5 only because the house was not as clean as I expected when we got there. There was some food spilt on the island in the kitchen and something split in the refrigerator. The floors under the beds were quite dirty as well. Those issues I realize are due to the cleaning crew and it was, by no means filthy. Just not as clean as I expected. There were also ants and I couldn’t determine where they were coming from but we just kept any food put away and they were minimal. Those issues were the only suggestions we would recommend, but the pros far outweighed the cons for our family and we will definitely plan to stay there again.

Great location but know before you book

Great location !House was immaculate, great front deck . The stairs up to door are quite steep for older people, house has keyless entry but listing doesn’t tell you this so had to call to confirm . Sheets and towels are low quality and quite scratchy. Layout of house is main issue. Both full baths are on same side of house thus whoever is staying on opposite side of house has to bring everything into bathroom or at least a robe to leave bathroom to get ready. There is also a pretty big step inside the house to walk in to living area from door. This was a bit of a hazard for people with any stability issues like my mom.

Beach Front Basic

This is review is not intended to be negative, but just an honest appraisal of the Sea Yawl rental property. Renters should be aware that this is a true rental for profit property, managed solely by a corporate company. "Extra" amenities are few and basic. For example, the towels are small, thin, and few. There are no real comforters or blankets on the beds, only thin coverlets which do not provide much warmth. We also had to make the beds when we arrived. When they say "starter supplies," the property management company means it (1 trash bag, no more). The property does not promise extras, but unlike other rentals, you will not find any beach chairs, beach toys, beach towels, or other nice "extras" that just happen to be around the property or that remain from previous rentals. Dishes are sparse; there is not any Tupperware or plastic baggies. The outside has minimal landscape and no chairs on the lower level to relax in. On one side is a vacant lot and on the other is what appears to be an abandoned home with a broken out window. One aspect that was disappointing was you could not open the porch windows and listen to the ocean. Unless you open the door, there is no way to listen to the ocean without letting in bugs. The windows were rusted and not operational. The cottage as a whole is very shabby chic. Now, as to the great aspects, Sea Yawl is right behind the Publix and steps to the beach. We loved being so close to the ocean and of course, it allowed us to bring our very small fur babies. As mentioned in other reviews, all the bathrooms are located on one side of the cottage, so 2 of the bedrooms have to cross the family/main room to use the bathrooms.
