Carillon Beach Gulf Front--Rosemary Beach Area--Near Seaside.........."A BAHAMA MAMA" & "A BANANA CABANA" . . .
Imagine a snow-white sand dune with swaying sea oats by almost Caribbean-green water on Carillon Beach, Florida. That's where "A Bahama Mama" (vacation rental home), and "A Banana Cabana" (companion guest cottage) proudly sit. You'll love the spectacular sunsets here from outdoors & indoors.
Newly constructed, "A Bahama Mama" & "A Banana Cabana" provide casual, luxury accommodations with a coastal flair. She is awash in light, airy well-appointed interiors with clean lines. When you reach the spacious gulf-front rooms, you will pause . . . "wow" . . . outdoors brilliantly fuses with indoors.
Add a heated private pool; by day, ideal for sunbathing as well as relaxing in the shade. By night, the pool lights glow transforms this same pool deck and comfortable loggia into a cozy retreat.

Hi K: I guess I shouldn't have been surprised to receive a check today (Monday, 2 days after Saturday departure) for my security deposit considering how organized you've been with every single detail, but WOW!! I never thought it would almost beat me home. Seeing your organized book you made with all the manuals (which we used) has inspired me to do the same at our vacation home. That was so nice to have on hand. Thanks so much for everything. I can't believe our trip is over--we had such a great time--your home is incredible. OK. Well, just wanted to say thank you again. Take care. D (August 4--11, 2012)/Tulsa, OKDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The house, the location, the appointments within the house were perfect. I do not remember ever staying in a house K like yours. Everything you have in the house is top shelf. You sem to take care of your house like I do. Nice to see that there are other people out there like me. It was a pleasure being at your house for the week. We are very reluctant to leave. The week went too fast. We all will keep our memories of Carillon Beach in our hearts for a long time.

(Yes for sure use anything I wrote. It was all the truth. What a great time!!) Your home is by far the nicest we have ever stayed in in all our years of visiting Florida. I just can't get over it. It looks beautiful and we are having the time of our lives. We are all checking our schedules and we want to stay at Bahama Mama and Banana Cabana again next summer. This is a place of healing.

Ya'll were a dream to work with - made the process easy! Your house was amazing - gorgeous decoration! The loft was our "playroom" - the kids spent the majority of the time up there building with Legos and watching movies. What a wonderful resource! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and are so glad we went. Hope you'll have us back! Thanks again - NM (October 10--17, 2010)/Nashville, TNDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

We received our deposit check back yesterday (three days after departure). One thing I forgot to mention was how nice it was to have our very own Bahama Mama and Banana Cabana beach lounges, and Kyle (beach lounge service attendant) was very helpful. Both The Bahama Mama and the Banana Cabana could not have been more lovely or more inviting! You did a beautiful job in decorating both. Always a small world - I was talking to our dear friends last night, and was telling them about our trip. One thing led to another!! They (had been there) agreed with me about how beautiful they are and what a great place to visit!! We will be in touch and thanks again for sharing!! We tried to take care of everything just as if it was our own home. SB (May 8--May 15, 2010)/Nashville, TNDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

You have helped make this an easy trip! What's not to like--The Beach Butlers are shopping-delivering AND putting away groceries. What a great help! Then Dan (your local delivery service) will hold/deliver UPS boxes and we unload in the house! Love it! Take care--have a great day.
