Grayton Beach "Seas the Day" 524 Defuniak Street

Enjoyed staying at Seas the Day. Enough room for everyone to have a room/bath. Kitchen good size and two fridges very helpful. Two large tables was more than enough room at mealtime— we had about 13 in our party. Pool small size but good beach supplement. House looking little worn. Could use family room furniture cleaning. Also house had strong damp odor which I could still smell on clothes after getting home. Though, was ok clean. Close enough for walk to beach— just a few houses away from drive-on beach entrance. You share the beach with the local drive-ons but there was an area dedicated to pedestrians so that was nice. Beach area clean and well supervised by code enforcement. Plenty of parking at house. We brought food to limit grocery trips due to covid. Was easy to stay socially distanced at beach. Used the bikes for riding on 30a paths almost daily. Missing beach service for chairs/umbrella. Left concierge message, no response. Walked looking for but never found.

Pros -Great space for 10 adults and 9 children. -Great kitchen/common area -Well stocked kitchen/ including 2 refrigerators and 2 dishwashers -Great private pool (but on the smaller side) -Bikes were great -We love Chiringo’s right across the street! Cons -Air conditioning can’t be set below 72 degrees and at times couldn’t keep up -Washing machine sometimes stopped in mid-cycle -Built in ice maker barely worked -It needs a thorough cleaning but was mostly satisfactory. -The only beach on 30A with vehicle access by permit for property owners/ trucks often on the beach

Worked perfect for our stay with the extended family; had 18 people in the house everyone had plenty of room to spread out for privacy. Lots of stairs, so be prepared to climb! Kitchen had plenty of pots, pans, knives, everything you could need for cooking (except no oils, salt/pepper, seasoning-sometimes houses we have stayed in have these leftover from previous guest). Pool was small but was enough for our use-they were there 2x during the week to clean and treat the pool. BBQ grill wasn't the best and could stand to be replaced. We had issues getting the temp hot enough even with a new propane tank. Washing machine was also touchy-sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. Reported these issues on checkout, but it was never that bothersome to contact them during our stay. Overall, would come back to this house if we needed something this size again. Was great!

Awesome house!!

Thank you for staying with 360 Blue, we hope to see you again soon!

Five families stayed in Seas the Day for a week during our kids’ Spring Break. The size and layout of the house perfectly accommodated the mix of adults and teens. Having 2 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, and 2 large tables made meal times easier. The house appears to have new furniture, but does need some TLC in the near future to bring it up to 30A standards. Overall, a great place to stay. One quick fix - add bed skirts or fitted sheets to all of the beds ASAP!!

Property Manager Response:
We are so glad that you and your group found this home to be large enough to accommodate everyone and we agree having those few extra amenities makes your getaway that much easier! Thank you for your feedback, we will be sure to share this with our team. We hope to see you all again very soon!

The stay was wonderful! Beautiful, comfortable and convenient!

Thank you for a great stay. Our family traveled from New Orleans for wedding and we were all able to stay in one place. Everyone was comfortable and enjoyed themselves. Great location.

Mixed. Had several phone and email conversations with various 360 Blue girls about dirty pool, outdoor shower broken, scheduling beach bonfire, and most of their descriptions and promises proved to be frustrating/erroneous. They have all been trained to “reach out to me” and to “touch bases with me”, but I would prefer if they were trained to actually solve problems. But the Red Bar was great!

Property Manager Response:
We are so sorry you did not have a great experience with us at 360 Blue. We always make every effort to not only address issues as they arise for our guests but also to keep our guests informed along the way. We are so sorry you ran into issues during your stay and we will continue working to prevent these types of issues in the future. We hope you made some amazing memories with your family during your time at the beach!

I am very impressed with 360 blue. They truly offer great service. We had someone meet us at the property on arrival and easily was able to message the company using the app about a maintenance issue. They fixed the problem immediately. The house worked great for our large group of friends, lots of space and we weren’t on top of each other. Only con is the pool alarm that goes off when you don’t push a button when walking in or out the back door. The bikes were definitely an added plus, we used them daily. Location is great- short walk to the beach

Property Manager Response:
We are beyond thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us! This home is truly the perfect place for a relaxing beach getaway. We hope to see you back soon!

Great place for our big annual Thanksgiving family vacation! Love the proximity to the beach, and the kids love being able to ride bikes.

Property Manager Response:
We are so thrilled you chose to spend your Thanksgiving in this beautiful. We hope to see you back at the beach soon!

Ideal location; walk to the beach without bothering w/shoes. Before groceries are acquired, get a beer across the street. Seven bikes for emergency trips to the local stores. The Five Families had a wonderful time. There is undoubtedly an automatic thermostat - somewhere - and it gets hot on the 1st floor after 10pm.

Property Manager Response:
What a great shot of the home! We are so happy you and your family had a great vacation! We are so grateful that you stayed with 360 Blue and be sure to come back and visit us again soon!

We had five families visit from Columbus Ohio! The house was very comfortable even for our large group . The beds very comfy the view was fantastic! Out only complaint would be , for a house of this size the pool was especially tiny , although it served its purpose and he kids played in it most days from sun up to sun down. I feel for a weeks stay if you are going to have a large group like ours you should request more the the one pool cleaning a week . The all to the beach and lake both was easy . Over all a great house and great stay ! Thank you !

Property Manager Response:
What a perfect day to spend at the beach! Thank you for your valuable feedback about the pool and we have passed along that information to the property manager to discuss with the owner about more frequent cleanings. Thank you so much for staying with 360 Blue and be sure to come back and visit us again soon!

Family gathering to celebrate an 80th birthday Appreciated the effort by 360 blue personnel to assist with two issues. 1) received a good tutorial on how to use theTV n the first floor den area. However there are too many complex functions in the equipment which interfere with simple TV. Viewing 2) l lost $500 camera when I left it hanging on the back of a beach chair 360 Blue immediately contacted the manager of the vendor who provides the beach gear, but the camera couldn't be found. None-the-less I appreciated the effort that 360 Blue made in trying to locate the camera. 3) The property is showing some wear and tear. There are areas that need to be repainted. There are apparent leaks in the roof and some of the showers may be leaking. The whole interior needs a deep cleaning.

Property Manager Response:
Happy belated Birthday! We are so happy to hear you had such a great time in Grayton Beach! We do apologize about the wear and tear of the home and have notified the property manager of those issues so they are being addressed! Thank you so much for staying with 360 Blue and we hope to have you back on 30A again soon!

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying in Seas the Day! The beautiful ocean views, the amazing location, the fun pool, the beach chairs set up daily, and space to spread out made this one of our favorite vacations! Grayton Beach is our new vacation spot! What a great beach town! Thank you for a wonderful week! We are so sad to see it end!!!

Property Manager Response:

Thank you so much for choosing 360 Blue, and for taking a moment to share your experience with us. Come back and see us real soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Seas the Day! The weather was beautiful! During the week, we celebrated a 21st birthday with a pedal bike tour, an 18th birthday with a beach bonfire, and a 50th birthday with a sandcastle building lesson. We have 20 in our family ranging from ages 50 to 9. We had plenty of room to spread out, eat dinner together, and play games. The house is ideally located close to the beach, Chiringo, and the Red Bar. The bikes were great to ride to Watercolor and Seaside. 360 Blue was very responsive to our questions and requests, which was much appreciated. The personal note from the owners was also a nice touch! Hopefully, we will all be able to return soon! Thanks so much, Colleen Schuster

Thank you so much for choosing 360 Blue for such a special trip! We look forward to helping you plan your next stay with us!

Absolutely perfect place to stay! The location (very close to the beach, state parks, Destin, shopping and grocery) , layout of the house, pool, and accommodations (wi-fi, cable, smart TV, bikes, pool, app communication, etc, etc) make it easy to enjoy so many things in the area. Well-kept property. Outdoor decks on every level and a view of the Ocean. We love Grayton Beach and Seas the Day!

Thank you for choosing 360 Blue for your family getaway, and for taking a moment to share your great experience. Come back and see us soon!

We had a group of 14 come for spring break. We loved the layout of the house as everyone had enough space. We enjoyed the bikes that came with the house. We especially love Grayton Beach as it is quiet and has a lot less traffic than other areas. 360 Blue was very attentive to any need we had.

Property Manager Response:
Wow, what a beautiful view! We couldn't be happier that you and your family had such a wonderful spring break. Thank you again for staying with 360 Blue and we hope to have you back again soon!

There was 19 in our party that truly enjoyed our week in Grayton. The house is big with lots of beds and room to spread out! Our grouped loved the beach, fishing in the lake, bike riding, and the Red Bar (crab cakes)!!! Love the neighborhood, two fridges, views are great...and easy walk to beach. Only cons were small pool for a lot of kids and stereo system not working outside

Property Manager Response:
There is more cuteness in this picture than I can handle! We are so happy to hear that you all enjoyed this home and community as much as we do. We hope to see you all back at the beach soon!

We had 4 families of 17 people to celebrate my parents 50th anniversary. We had a wonderful time. Spent lots of time on back patio playing washers or in the pool. Loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Had to call about ice maker and someone was out quickly to fix. Short walk to beach and younger grandkids loved the bikes.

Property Manager Response:
Hi Weber Family: That is a great Family Photo! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your beach vacation. Thank you for choosing 360 Blue and we hope to see you in the near future :)

We had a fabulous time in Seas the Day! There was 24 total, and the house was big enough to accommodate all of us. The kitchen was great with the double refrigerators,freezers, and the ice maker. The kids enjoyed the pool, and the adults enjoyed the patio. The 360 staff was very pleasant to work with, and very efficient when called upon. Thank you so much! Happy New Year!

Looks like you got to enjoy beautiful weather and a perfect beach day. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at 524 Defuniak Street! Thank you so much for choosing to stay with 360 Blue and we look forward to you coming to visit again soon!

We had 3 families with 8 kids and the trip was amazing. We could have included more friends there was so much space. The atmosphere at Grayton Beach is much more laid back then most of the places we have stayed on 30-A and really enjoyed that part of the trip. What an amazing trip for both the adults and the kids.

Looks like you all had beautiful weather and water for a wonderful beach day! Thank you for sharing such a happy picture.
