Welcome to The Cottages at Sea Oaks Beach & Tennis Club
Vero Beach, Florida
Some homes are built. Others are born — shaped by a vision, a place, and a way of life that refuses to be forgotten. The Cottages at Sea Oaks are that kind of home.
Among the very first residences ever constructed at Sea Oaks, the Cottages were deliberately designed to capture an Old Florida look and feel — wood construction, wide screened porches, and an architecture that spoke to the unhurried, deeply connected way of life that has always defined Florida's most beloved communities. Decades later, that vision endures. The Cottages remain one of the most cherished and sought-after addresses in all of Sea Oaks — not in spite of their history, but because of it.
Architecture with a Soul
There is something unmistakable about a Sea Oaks Cottage the moment you approach it. The 125-acre grounds of Sea Oaks span from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian River and are a rare blend of oak trees and pine forests typical of the Carolinas, blended with swaying palms and colorful blooms typical of the tropics
Rent By Owner — and the Cottages sit at the very heart of that landscape, sheltered beneath canopies of majestic live oaks draped in Spanish moss, surrounded by lush native gardens that feel a world apart from the ordinary.
These are classic coastal Cottages featuring open floor plans, volume ceilings, and original screen-enclosed porches on both the main level and the primary suite above
Verocoastalhomes — creating homes that breathe with the Florida air and live as generously as they look. Hardwood floors, private backyard paver patios, carports with storage, and plantation shutters give each Cottage a warmth and personality that simply cannot be replicated in newer construction.
Meticulously maintained Cottages have seen upgrades including impact windows and doors, updated plumbing, new HVAC systems, metal roofs, and beautifully landscaped gardens nestled beneath historic oaks — with custom landscape lighting, native plantings, nature walkways, and crushed limestone patios that make the outdoor spaces as inviting as the interiors.

Private, Lush, and Utterly Florida
What sets the Cottages apart from every other neighborhood at Sea Oaks is their extraordinary sense of place. Tucked among towering oaks and tropical foliage, each Cottage feels private and personal — a quiet retreat where you can open your screened porch to the warm evening breeze, listen to the birds settle into the hammock, and feel genuinely at home in a way that resort condominiums and newer construction rarely achieve.
The Cottages are nestled in a lush setting of majestic live oaks and sabal palmettos — it is where your neighbors ride bikes, play tennis, and swim. They are friendly and outgoing. Many are athletic, artistic, or both.
Seaoaksbeachandtennis The Cottage neighborhood carries that spirit more naturally than almost anywhere else on the property. Neighbors know each other here. Front porches invite conversation. The pace is gentle and the community is real.
Sea Oaks is a pet-friendly community and borders the eight-mile Historic Jungle Trail, a state-protected nature preserve ideal for walking and biking
