About this property

Beachfront in Seaside on Double Lot, Amazing Gulf views, Dune House, sleeps 4

1 King, 1 Queen

Dune House is a rare jewel, nestled on a double beachfront lot with stunning, unobstructed views of the Gulf. Designed by renowned architect Scott Merrill, this home pays homage to the original cottage ambiance of early Seaside, Florida, while seamlessly blending modern elegance with the natural beauty of its extraordinary setting. Dune House holds a special place in cinematic history, having served as the home to the director of The Truman Show during the filming of this beloved classic movie in Seaside.

The first floor of Dune House features two beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own private ensuite bathroom. The first bedroom is a spacious primary suite with a king-sized bed, offering a serene retreat. This room comes with a renovated private bath that features a luxury spa like glass enclosed rain shower with multiple shower heads and a large ceiling rain shower. Off this primary is a screened in private porch with a hammock and a double rocker with stunning gulf views through the dunes, the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while enjoying the gulf breeze and listening to sound of the waves. The second guest bedroom is a queen with an ensuite bath, and a private screened front porch, ensuring ultimate comfort and privacy for guests. This queen ensuite bath features a single vanity and a soaker tub with shower. The screened porch has seating for two and is very private surrounded with lush landscaping. This private home is perfect for two couples and or young families wanting a beachfront Seaside escape!

The second floor is designed with an open floor plan that connects the kitchen, dining area, and living room, creating a bright and airy space perfect for entertaining or unwinding with gulf views throughout. The dining area comfortably seats five and offers glimpses of the Gulf, making it an ideal place to enjoy meals while taking in the beauty of the coastal landscape just outside your generous open air beachfront porch.

Adjacent to the dining area, the living room is surrounded by a wall of windows, providing stunning panoramic views of the Gulf and flooding the space with natural light. The kitchen, conveniently located next to the dining and living areas, is well-equipped for preparing meals and creating memorable moments with family and friends. The kitchen features a large double door fridge with ice maker and water dispenser, a six burner gas Viking stovetop and oven, coffee pot, microwave, and ample cookware to prepare meals at home. Additionally, a half bath is available on the second floor for guests, adding convenience and comfort to this well-designed space.

The true gem of the home is the expansive open air beachfront porch with shaded canopy that provides the most stunning panoramic gulf views and incredible sunsets! There are two chaise loungers for sunning on your private porch and outdoor dining for dining al fresco while you watch the sunset!

Lovely House, Incredible View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I've stayed at other houses in Seaside. This time, I wanted to stay right on the beach. The house is amazing, filled with light and interesting spaces, and it has a beautiful, timeless design. Other reviewers have mentioned the TV situation. Personally, I like that the TV does not compete with the spectacular views and beach vibe. However, in the late fall and winter when days are short, it would be nice to be able to stream. We solved this by bringing our own inexpensive streaming device. A nice upgrade would be to increase the TV size so that more than two people can watch comfortably. The kitchen had everything that we needed. The house felt bigger than what was indicated by the actual square footage. Overall, we had a wonderful time at the beach!

Dune House Labor Day Visit

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very satisfied with the location. The house was clean, but we saw more roaches than in a 1960s Panama City Beach motel. The pest control and the TV situation needs to be addressed before we could recommend it to a friend. The lone TV was the size of a computer monitor. It needed to be in and would be suitable for the Master BR. The living room needs a larger screen.

A Home Away From Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Dune House is a true hidden gem. We loved everything about our stay! The ocean view from the den and back deck are unbeatable. We had coffee every morning under the pergola and it was so peaceful listening to the morning waves. The house and grounds are as gorgeous as the photos and we felt right at home immediately. It was clean and well appointed and so close to everything you need in terms of eating|drinking|socializing. We will definitely be back.

Dune House Never Again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The only good thing about the stay is the Homeowner's Collection Team. The house is old and needs a lot of updating and work. Prior to our stay there was some work done, but were not complete. It was like half the downstairs was still "Under construction" The only TV in the entire place is not even a smart TV.

Absolutely wonderful!

This property was more than I expected. The home is very nicely decorated and has everything you need. I always bring my own sheets, pillows and bath towels because I’ve rented homes with poor quality linens. This was NOT the case with this property! I didn’t even use my own pillow! The location is awesome; right on the beach and walking distance to the square. Will definitely book again. The only thing to note is the home didn’t have a smart tv which I prefer because I only watch Netflix and HBOMax. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

Perfect location

First - yes the parking is a little tight, fit a Jeep Wrangler perfectly but might be hard to get out of an Expedition or something. Second - reserve chairs through Cabana Man early, they sell out many months in advance. The location and house are just perfect. Great spot to watch the ocean and a quick walk to all seaside has to offer. Looking forward to our next trip.
