Perfect...in every way!

The hotel was a fantastic, beautiful location! The venue setup was perfect. We could not have asked for anything more.

But more importantly, the event coordinator, Jordan, is as good as it gets. Every step of the way, he was one step ahead of us. Every question we had, every issue we brought up...Jordan was on top of it. The easiest-going guy you will ever meet...but you will KNOW he is working his a** off to ensure your event goes perfectly.

My advice is to call him up...set your date...reserve Seaside...and have yourself a fantastic wedding. You will not be disappointed!

Seaside Inn Beach Resort is the most beautiful place! My husband and I visited Anna Maria Island and knew we had to get married there! We had our wedding at the Seaside Inn Beach Resort and it was pure magic! We planned our destination wedding over the phone with our vendors and found the most amazing people you would ever meet. It was a lot of work doing most of the work ourselves to prepare the day of the wedding, such as set up etc but it was worth it!

The Seaside Inn Beach Resort made for the most beautiful and spectacular wedding reception location we could have had. This is an outdoor reception site on a built-up seawall that looks out to the ocean. With the rental fee you get the space, a tent and tables/chairs (if you opt for that package). Overall, the rental fee was very reasonable in comparison to other venues in the area, however, part of the agreement for renting the space is having your guests stay in or rent the 10 rooms on site. We felt the room prices were very high and felt bad that our guests had to book rooms at such high prices, we ended up paying a portion of every room but the room price was still well above an average upscale hotel room. There is also no public bathroom onsite, so we had to turn one of the rooms into the guest bathroom as all guests attending the reception did not stay at the hotel.

Our only complaint would be the communication with the event manager, we had a very hard time getting a hold of the event manager assigned to our wedding and felt she did not reach out to us or make our event a priority. The assistant GM, Stacey, was great and when we took our concerns to her, she did whatever she could to rectify the situation.

Overall, we could not have asked for a more perfect place for a true beach reception. This place was perfect because you were on the beach, but as it was a seawall we had an automatic dance floor and we were secluded from the public. The other bonus about this site is that you have total freedom to customize your event, you get to choose the caterer, you can serve alcohol, you can bring in your DJ, etc. Most resorts have preferred vendors which limit your choices, this one allows you to create the wedding of your dreams. The pictures from the reception are out of this world, as all our guests got a front row seat to a Florida sunset. Our friends and family are still talking about this night!
