Area Attractions:

Port St. Joe blends small-town Southern character with easy access to some of the Gulf Coast's most beautiful natural landscapes. The historic downtown offers locally owned shops, galleries, and restaurants along Reid Avenue, where visitors can browse for art, antiques, and handmade goods before sitting down to a plate of fresh oysters or grilled grouper.

Nature lovers will find plenty to explore just outside of town. St. Joseph Peninsula State Park is consistently ranked among the best beaches in the country, featuring miles of undeveloped shoreline, coastal dunes, and pine flatwoods teeming with wildlife. The park's bay side is a top destination for scalloping in season, and its trails offer excellent birdwatching, especially during migration. Port St. Joe also serves as a convenient launching point for boat tours, offshore fishing charters, and paddling trips through the calm waters of St. Joseph Bay.

The only negative to the stay was the location to the “beach”. First, the description says “3 min walk” and “6 min walk”. When looking at the map, this looked possible, but upon arrival, neither of these were accurate. When I contacted the company I was told “that shouldn’t say that”. The beach that was listed as a 3 min walk was off the side of the busy road and was barely wide enough to be considered a beach. The 6 min walk was over a mile away at a public beach access. This was frustrating, as we thought we were in walking distance to a beach, we do not mind a walk, but we do not like to drive our cars to the beach. I would not have booked this property if the description was accurate.

We had a great stay very nice place and very close maybe 6 min drive over the bridge to all the restaurants and grocery store . It is close to the beach but not walkable but only a 5 min drive to the beach . And about a 25 min drive to cape San Blas . Great good in the strip in town tho my favorite was probley the bbq it’s a must try. Very quite place so worked out great for us we enjoyed the quite more peaceful vacation rather then the busy over crowded areas . It was a realization tho once we got there almost everything is closed on Sundays so take the in account when visiting. The house was beautiful and very spacious and the 3 different pools and not to relax at after a day at the beach . The fitness room isn’t much tho maybe 2 people at most at once mainly for cardio and the a cable pulley machine . We would definitely come back to the area tho .

The location was beautiful, and convenient to beach access. Amy quickly responded to questions. The house was not very clean when we arrived, the kitchen counter was dirty and the sheets in the bunk bed room were not clean. The bunk bed was extremely noisy and the queen bed was way too soft and low to the ground. Other than that, we had a great time!

Had a great stay. It was very clean and great location. We did lots in the area and checked out many beaches. I will say we had an issue checking in and the lock didn’t work and we didn’t get an answer but thankfully someone answered the rental companies after hours and came to get us in and got us a new code. We had one dog and got linens from the dollar store to cover the couches and chairs. They say pet friendly but charge for any dog hair left. So be aware and prepared.

Beautiful Home in Perfect Location: This place was excellent. Lots on amenities and location to beaches was great. We did have a couple of issues when we got there. TVs had no sound. Property management came out the next day and installed a soundbar and it was fine. We did have an issue with the icemaker. No ice. We called and property manager sent someone to look at it. He could not fix it. They sent someone else out and he could not repair either. He said he would have an appliance guy come out. We were given a time range for the next day. Never happened. We finally just bought bags of ice instead of spending our day waiting on someone to show up. Ice is a necessity on a beach vacation. I am thinking that they should have offered to bring over bags of ice. Would have helped the problem and they could have replaced icemaker at another time.

Great space...: We enjoyed our time at Seas the Day. The space was as advertised and had all the things we needed. Everyone in our family commented on the comfort of the beds. My only disappointment was that we had to leave early due to the MANDATORY hurricane evacuation. We did not purchase travel insurance and were told that we could not receive a refund for our final two nights, even though the evacuation notice was mandatory. I think that is a poor policy!

We loved the porches. (Couldn’t get the fan to work on the upstairs one, but that was ok.) The house was very clean, but the top bunk did have sand in it. Lots of dishes, plenty of towels, but you might want to bring more trash bags and toilet paper. The only downside of the house is the stairs. They are very slick. Don’t recommend for little kids or elderly. Other than that, it was a great house in a cute neighborhood.

Place was very nice! Very clean! Loved the screen in porch. The surrounding homes were not occupied, which made it seem even more private for us. The only downside, was I wish I had a better area to walk my dog. You can walk around the neighborhood, but it isn’t too thrilling for a long walk. Outside of the neighborhood is a very busy street with no sidewalks.

Upon arrival the home was cute, but had a moldy smell when walking into the front door. The house looked clean until we walked upstairs. The carpet was absolutely disgusting. There were stains in each room. My son and I both fell down the stairs as they were slippery and steep. The bunk beds definitely need to be tighten or upgraded because they squeak at the slightest move. It woke everyone up anytime I turned in the middle of the night. You can also hear the highway from the bedroom and that was loud. I absolutely hate leaving reviews like this but I do feel as it necessary. We felt gross after leaving and sleeping in the home. Everyone in the area was quiet and friendly otherwise. For the price, I 100% would not recommend this as a stay especially because you have to sign a separate contract with their rental company which I didn’t receive until days before our trip.

People in the complex were friendly and helpful. Amy responded quickly when we asked for an extra trash bag. We enjoyed Port St. Joe and the area beaches. However, there were a number of smaller issues that were disappointing. Only 1 kitchen garbage bag, 2 dishwasher pods, and a limited amount of toilet paper. Master suite has a full size bed, not the queen that was advertised. Carpet upstairs is stained and dirty. 20 minutes after a shower, our feet were dirty from walking around inside. No beach chairs or beach towels. This would have been nice to know in advance. Two swimming pools: water in both was about the same temperature—High 70s. If one is heated (as advertised) it is heated by the sun… Hot tub did not work the first day. Hot tub worked for 3 minutes and then quit on the last day. Signage said pools closed at dusk—the hot tub stopped working 1:15 before sunset. Very disappointing. Screened in porch was definitely not private. Neighbors porch is 10 feet away.

The house was very accommodating! You felt right at home the moment you arrived. The ease of getting into the house was wonderful. 10/10 would recommend. Only issue we had during the whole stay was mainly with the facility. While at the pool a few times people arrived who did not actually live or vacation in the facility. They were teenagers at most and were all over the place and no regard to families there who are paying to enjoy these amenities. Unfortunately there was no one to call or have anything done at that time. Other than that the house was excellent. Great location and easy access. We even had that small section to ourselves which made it even more relaxing and peaceful. Will be returning!
