Welcome to Whatcha Dune | Seaside, Florida

For a family-friendly vacation in Seaside, Florida, Whatcha Dune offers the perfect balance of convenience, comfort, and privacy. Ideally located on Forest Street, just across from Ruskin Park and near the iconic Seaside Chapel, this charming beach cottage sits only steps from the beach and within easy reach of both the East and West side pools—making it an exceptional choice for families looking to enjoy everything Seaside has to offer.

Open-Concept Living Designed for Gathering

The main level of Whatcha Dune features a bright and open floor plan designed for effortless entertaining and quality time together. The airy kitchen is equipped with granite countertops and a breakfast bar with seating for four, while a cozy breakfast nook seats two—perfect for morning coffee. Adjacent, the dining area comfortably seats eight guests and flows seamlessly into the open living room, which is filled with natural light, generous seating, and a large flat-screen TV.

Just off the living room, a large open-air side porch furnished with Adirondack chairs provides a relaxing retreat after a day at the beach. At the rear of the home, an additional open-air porch with outdoor dining for eight creates the perfect setting for al fresco meals and evening gatherings. The first floor also includes a full bathroom and ample storage throughout.

Comfortable Sleeping Accommodations for the Whole Family

Upstairs, Whatcha Dune offers a variety of thoughtfully designed sleeping spaces. The primary king suite features a flat-screen TV, private full bathroom, and access to a furnished screened-in porch with treetop and street views—an ideal spot to unwind. The second bedroom offers a queen bed, flat-screen TV, and access to the same screened porch.

The third bedroom includes two twin beds (convertible to a king upon request), generous storage, and a flat-screen TV. This bedroom shares a spacious Jack-and-Jill bathroom with the queen bedroom. On the third floor, a bonus bunk-style bedroom is perfect for kids or teens, offering two twin beds and one full bed, plus a sitting area with a flat-screen TV—ideal for movie nights or games.

Expansive Porches for Relaxed Seaside Living

One of Whatcha Dune’s standout features is its two expansive porches, which stretch nearly the length of the cottage and serve as natural gathering spaces. The first-floor porch is open-air with comfortable Adirondack seating, while the second-floor screened porch features a sectional-style outdoor sofa and additional seating—providing plenty of room to relax, connect, and enjoy Seaside’s coastal breezes.

Prime Seaside Location Near Beach, Pools & Parks

Located on peaceful Forest Street, Whatcha Dune offers a premier Seaside location with easy access to the private residential beach, nearby pools, Ruskin Park, and the Seaside Town Square. Whether you’re spending your days on the sand, relaxing on the porches, or enjoying time together indoors, this welcoming cottage provides everything needed for a memorable Seaside beach vacation.
