Carillon Beach Gulf Front--Rosemary Beach Area--Near Seaside.........."A BAHAMA MAMA" & "A BANANA CABANA" . . .

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. Fondly, Your beach renters from Germantown, TN-- JV (August 21--28, 2010)/Germantown, TN

(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, TN

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, TN

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. Y R (July 31--Aug 14, 2010)/Katy, TX

We truly loved the houses and the neighborhood was totally fun. We went to hear the band (free Monday nights/"Concert on the Green"), saw the movie (free Wednesday nights/outdoors), and some are going to Karaoke night tonight after they are packed. It has truly been full of wonderful memories and we hope to be back next year. N C (July 17--24, 2010)/The Woodlands, TX

K, Delighted! (for you to use the email I sent you)--What an amazing set of houses you have in Carillon Beach! My husband and I (and our boys) stayed in the Banana Cabana last week (while our friends stayed in the main house). We loved the set up and thought that these were the nicest and best appointed houses we've stayed at ever. You really went out of your way to think of everything and to make it convenient for your guests! Your great taste in decorating and your attention to detail made the whole experience so enjoyable! Thanks for helping us enjoy our vacation as much as our boys did! Thanks again! Take Care, MM (June 19--26, 2010)/Bloomington, IL
