Second time at Blue Honey

Our family favorite place to stay! We got to stay again at Blue Honey this year. Best amenities just like home, very well taken care of, clean, everything works fabulously. The swimming pool is gorgeous with seating outdoors to enjoy the family. There is a new golf cart and new bikes for all to enjoy riding around Watercolor and Seaside. Great location too! I highly recommend renting and appreciate Mike and Joan Heflin. They are hands-on with the property and are very accommodating and enjoyable to work with.

Another great stay

We have stayed several times in this house and it is always an excellent time. The homeowner makes sure everything goes smoothly. I really appreciate all the extra touches like real bath mats, good toilet paper and comfortable beds and bedding. Everything is in good working order/condition and clearly well maintained. This house has all the extras like great porch spaces, pool, fire pit and comfortable quality furniture. This house is always just right!

30A 2024 family trip

Everyone in our group agrees this is our favorite property on 30A and we’ve been annual renters for years and years! The location is perfect—steps from seaside with easy access to all Watercolor has to offer. The property was PERFECT for us and was incredibly stocked for the perfect week long beach vacation. The home is stunningly beautiful yet very comfortable. The owner, Mike Heflin, was most responsive and helpful, even before the trip began! Trust me, this gorgeous home is one I plan to return to again and again. Definite 5 star listing!!

Best Property in Seaside and even Better Host!

We have become regular visitors to Seaside during spring break and this is by far the best property. The location is perfect. Five minute walk to Camp Watercolor, five minute golf cart trip to Publix, The Perfect Pig and Surfing Deer Restaurants and Seaside Town Square and beaches. The property backs up to a beautiful pine tree filled preserve for privacy and quiet. The home is professionally decorated and spotless. The design is also well done as the actual living areas are in the rear of the home overlooking a wonderful heated pool and fire pit area. Our four kids enjoyed the home so much that they actually spent more time with us instead of with all of their friends at the beach and other areas of Seaside. The homeowners are your direct contact for the property and were truly amazing. They made certain all of our needs and questions were always addressed. They make you feel like family visiting their vacation home. Truly wonderful people and it is reflected in the love and care they have given this property. We will absolutely be back to stay at Blue Honey in the future.

House is very nice. There was a significant hiccup with the housekeeper at checkin but owner was very responsive and helpful. We had 12 family members (2 infants; 4 kids ages 2-6; 6 adults. Pool in backyard was great. Rains in June and community pools close 30 min after lightening. Sometimes 3 times in 1 afternoon so pool in backyard was great!!
