Extensively Renovated Seaside Cottage with Park Views

Kaya has undergone extensive renovations throughout the home, featuring all-new designer furnishings, upgraded finishes, and beautifully renovated kitchen and bathrooms. This thoughtfully refreshed Seaside cottage is ideally located within walking distance of the community’s beaches, pools, tennis courts, dining, and shopping—making it an exceptional choice for a relaxed yet convenient Seaside, Florida vacation.

Oversized porches span the length of the home on both levels, overlooking a peaceful wooded park and creating a private, serene setting. The downstairs porch is perfect for enjoying morning coffee in Adirondack chairs or rockers, while the upstairs screened-in porches offer multiple seating areas and outdoor dining just off the main living space.

Primary Suite Retreat with Luxury Bath

The king-sized primary suite is a true private oasis, featuring upscale finishes, new designer furniture, a large mounted flat-screen TV, and a stunning renovated ensuite bathroom. The spa-like primary bath includes a dual vanity and an impressive multi-stream rain shower. With direct access to a screened-in porch, the primary suite offers a tranquil retreat ideal for couples seeking both comfort and privacy during a family getaway.

Comfortable Guest Bedrooms for Families

The first level of the home includes two additional bedrooms designed with families in mind. One bedroom features two twin beds, while the second offers a bright queen bedroom filled with natural light. These guest bedrooms share a conveniently located hall bathroom and open onto a large screened-in porch with rocking chairs—an inviting space for quiet mornings, evening conversations, or winding down with bedtime stories.

Open-Concept Living, Dining & Renovated Kitchen

The second floor serves as the heart of the home, featuring a newly renovated kitchen with all-new appliances, breakfast bar seating, and ample counter and cabinet space for beach-day snacks and family meals. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into the dining area, which comfortably seats eight, making it perfect for shared meals and gatherings.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a bonus built-in desk area, ideal for remote work or planning daily Seaside adventures. The spacious living room is outfitted with all-new furnishings, including a large sectional sofa, additional seating, and a mounted flat-screen TV. French doors lead directly to the furnished screened-in porch, where outdoor dining and lounging can be enjoyed any time of day or night.

Outdoor Living & Prime Seaside Location

Whether you’re grilling, rinsing off in the outdoor shower after a beach day, relaxing on the porches, or taking a short walk to Seaside’s renowned amenities, Kaya offers everything needed for a memorable coastal vacation. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, connection, and relaxation, this cottage blends modern updates with classic Seaside charm.

Our family attended a relative's wedding at the Chapel in Seaside and decided to stay together. Kaya was the name of one of my son's dogs so we decided it was the choice in places to stay. It was close to all the venues of the wedding plans and we could walk to everything. Guest services could not have been more helpful.
Wonderful and thank you for taking time to share a positive review of Kaya Cottage and Homeowners Collection services.
We are delighted you enjoyed Seaside Village for a wedding celebration and we do hope to welcome you back for more of our beautiful Emerald Coast experience.
Take care..

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kaya. It was a great size and layout for our family of 6 adults and 3 young children. It is near the family pool and we had easy access to beach. Well decorated, comfortable bedrooms and decorated beautifully. My only suggestion is that it needs more glassware, especially plastic.
Hi Kaya, thank you for taking the time to share a positive review of Kaya Cottage and Homeowners Collection.
We appreciate your suggestion on the kitchen items and will let Housekeeping & the Quality Control Manager know..
Nice to hear that the layout, decor and location were appealing. We hope to welcome all of you again in the future. Take care.

This was our 6th vacation in Seaside, but our first time to stay in a main house, and Kaya did not disappoint! We were 2 adult couples and 1 family of 4, so the bedroom configuration was perfect. The family had a mini-wing to themselves. With screened porches off of every room, there was plenty of space for us all to spread out and have quiet time, too. The location was great. Just behind the school, it was quiet and a close walk to Town Square. A serene view of the park from the porches with no home on that side was really nice too. The home itself was in really good condition and well-maintained. There were games and puzzles available for the rainy afternoons, which we appreciated. Kaya is definitely on our preferred list! HC is always helpful and communicative, and we enjoyed meeting our rep upon arrival. Another great trip to Seaside is complete!
Hello Gina, We are happy you were happy on your 6th vacation with us in Seaside!
Homeowners Collection would like to shout out a huge thank you for your loyalty, and wonderful expression in detail of Kaya Cottage.
We are looking forward to welcoming you for years to come. Have a great rest of the summer. See ya soon. Take care..

We had a wonderful stay at Kaya. The house is updated, spacious, and well maintained. The porches are relaxing, and the location provides easy access to the square, beach, and seaside amenities. We would definitely stay in Kaya again.

We have visited Seaside for almost two decades and have stayed in several different Homeowners Collection properties but this is by far our favorite (so far).Great layout, with the kitchen and family room upstairs which gave the place a light and airy feel but the best part of the house are the screened in porches on the first and second floors that face the greenbelt between Seaside and Watercolor. A great place to read, relax, have a meal, or a nap. This home is very close to the city center but just far enough away that you don't hear the noise or deal with the traffic and parking closer to the square (key during spring break weeks).The condition of the home and furnishings was excellent and the kitchen well stocked. This will be a family fav going forward.
Wow! ... you found your all time favorite cottage! We are delighted you enjoyed Kaya and so appreciate your 2 decade loyalty to Homeowners Collection. Thank you for sharing a positive review and we do hope to welcome you always, back to Seaside. Take care..

The house we originally rented was unavailable at the last moment and the staff of Homeowners Collection were able to relocate us to Kaya. While it caused a longer walk to our beach chairs that were reserved at a different pavilion, the house was absolutely lovely. Its in a perfect location away from the hustle and bustle of Seaside and 30A but very close to town center. It has large porches (both screened and not screened) with ample seating. The house was very clean and is decorated beautifully. The kitchen was stocked with nice cookware and dishes and the separate ice maker was a huge plus! We come to Seaside often and Kaya is now one of our favorite houses! We would definitely stay again!!
Hi Leslie! I am delighted to hear Kaya & the Homeowners Collection team met your expectations. We also appreciate the time you took to share details & give a positive review. We hope to welcome you back for all your future Seaside visits! Take care..
