Beautiful Seaside Cottage, Sports Club, Sleeps 6 + Free Attraction Tickets!

Bella Vista, an authentic Seaside cottage, holds the unique distinction of being the first building established in the Seaside area, originally constructed in 1981 on Tupelo Street.

Comfortable family beach house

We loved our 5 day trip to Seaside! This quaint, original Seaside cottage is ideally located on Tupelo and had everything we needed. We loved the big, screened in porch and the large outdoor shower. Very short walk to the beach and a short stroll to pool/town center.

Perfect Beach Getaway

Fell in love with the house due to the "beachy" vibe. Very comfortable and warm accommodation. The large porch area provided plenty of room to relax with friends. It's so close to the beach access I didn't need to wear my flops. It has the best equipped kitchen I have ever experienced with a rental. Everything about this place screams "Relax, you're at the beach!" I liked it so much I went ahead and put down a deposit for next year.

Lovely stay at Bella Vista

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: We had a wonderful stay in Bella Vista. It's a great house and location. It's nicely updated, and the kitchen has everything you'd need to cook a great meal. The beds are comfortable, and the screen porch is a bonus. There's a cabinet full of beach toys that are great. When I had questions, the management team always answered them promptly. I highly recommend this property and Benchmark.

Living room was comfortable and screened-in porch was marvelous. One drawback was the front bedroom, where the window covering was too sheer to provide privacy.

Ive been coming to Seaside for years but this trip i wanted to stay in Seaside instead of just driving there. Found a great place through VRBO and the rest was a breeze. Will definitely be booking this rental for another trip.

Excellent location

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: We had a great stay at this home- as long time Seaside visitors we are familiar with the town and knew we wanted to be near the beach and an easy walk to the town center since we have small kids. We also appreciate the history of this house. The screen porch was great to have as we had several rainy days. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed having an outdoor shower with some privacy that led into the indoor shower. It helped us not to track sand and water in. Having one level and no bunk beds was safer for our kids as well we felt.We did inquire about the availability of kids toys or chairs before arrival and were told there were none but were pleasantly surprised at a closet full of beach toys and a couple of small chairs. Only complaint was not having a blanket for the sleeper sofa and having to use a beach towel over the sheet for our son at night. It would be great to have a blanket on a shelf for use if needed. We were happy to have the amenity of free bikes through Xplorie and it was easy to arrange drop off for the week. Thank you for hosting us!

Superb Management

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: The management team is the absolute best. Not only is this original Seaside Cottage super clean and organized, but they were able to locate my laptop computer and planner after we'd left the state, and mail it back to me immediately, with a calm, streamlined and systematic process. Unbelievable! And.... the free bikes we got with their bonus dollars, was great! We will stay with this company from now on! :)
