Gulf Front Seaside Iconic Honeymoon Cottage

Amazing luxury retreat for that special getaway! "Better Together" is cottage number 1 in Seaside, Florida and sits directly gulf front high on the sand dune with forever views. In 1998 Seaside town founder Mr. Robert Davis desired to have several low impact cottages built and set directly gulf front. The design inspiration was from the "honeymoon cottage" that Thomas Jefferson lived in while he built Monticello.

The cottage Better Together has just completed a gorgeous renovation. This is the the perfect Romantic Getaway Spot!

Great property with good views of the beach and water. Close to town center, shopping and restaurants. Condo was beautifully decorated and well appointed. This was our 3rd trip to Seaside and our favorite place to stay so far. The owner responded promptly and was easy to work with. Highly recommend this property!

My wife and I came for a four day getaway. We truly felt blessed to be able to stay at this house. The view is breathtaking and the quick access to the beach was amazing. The house was spotless. It had the perfect amount of room and convenience for 2. We had everything we needed. The bed was also very comfortable. Our favorite part of each day was spending our mornings and evenings on the deck, overlooking the Gulf. Dean was kind and responsive. Seaside is a great spot. Even with the crowds of spring break, the house felt quiet and secluded. We were sad to leave and hope to come back again.

My wife and I just returned from our stay and loved it. The cottage is right on the beach with great views and only steps to the beach. It is charming , cosy, and comfortable. the layout is well organized and well appointed. It’s hard to beat early morning coffee, evening cocktails and beautiful sunsets on the upper deck. We were close to shopping and restaurants in Seaside and surrounding areas.The location was perfect. We are already planning a return visit.
