Fantastic vacation!

We spent spring break week at the carriage house. So much to do in Watercolor and surrounding area. Highly recommend 30A and Tom & Leslie’s property. Two bikes provided and two wristbands for beach club. Be sure to inquire about best restaurants in area - excellent recommendations!

First Watercolor experience

Wonderful spot in the best family friendly community. Beautiful amenities in carriage home and community. A bit crowded-but it was spring break season! Great time with many of our home town friends that also traveled down to seaside.

Absolutely Amazing! Tom & Leslie were amazing hosts and would respond promptly to anything we needed. We loved our stay and it is perfect for a couples get away. Easy 2 minute bike ride or walk to the grocery store and easy 10-15 min bike to the beach or Seaside square. The setup of this room is awesome. I don't think we would change a single thing! Highly recommend and we will be back next year.

Great Stay at Coziest Guesthouse by the Beach

This is a great property for a couple visiting Watercolor! The bed and bedding are fantastic, the small kitchenette is fine for two and the sitting area, bathroom are all well maintained and nicer than any high end hotel. Grocery and some restaurants are within walking distance which is a bonus.All Watercolor access is why you go to Watercolor and the WC Beach Club is one of the best, if not the best on 30A. WC Trolley was great and we never waited more than 5 minutes for ride to the beach club. This a great cottage! Highly Recommend!

A short vacation stay with my son and his family and friends staying at a house close by.

Superb location close to everything. Great for one or two people who don’t plan on spending time inside but outside in the spectacular Watercolors amenities. Comfortable bed wonderful shower, nice comfortable sofa and table and chairs. A short one and a half block walk to ample parking.
