  My family of 10 throughly enjoyed our trip to Generations! The house was perfect and loved the easy beach access. Gorgeous Sand and loved the chair/umbrella set up. So easy to go back and forth from house to beach when needed. Perfect location - close to great restaurants in Carillon, Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach and Panama City. We loved our trip and only wished we could have stayed longer. Would definitely recommend to others and would like to rent again at a future date.

  Owner response: Thanks for your review. The six cushioned chaise lounge chairs with umbrellas on the Beach are guests' favorites. Carillon Beach is unique with only one "row" of chairs on the entire almost one mile long Beach. There are no chairs in front or behind making for continuous views of the awesome Gulf's aqua clear water, even from the sugar like sand as well as Generations' balconies!

  My family and friends stayed in Generations House for Spring Break 2013 and we had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect so we couldn't have asked for anything better. The house was exactly as listed, clean and well-maintained. The owner was wonderful, both before and during our stay, he answered our many questions about the house and Carillon community. We booked well in advance because we knew the layout of the main house and cottage house was perfect for our party of 15. We were so happy with the community, our kids ranging in ages 9-16 rode bikes through the community (as well as the adults), shopped at the ice cream store in town and enjoyed going to the basketball court and pools and Shipwreck store. The cottage house was perfect for all the kids to have their own space with still being close to the adults. The only thing I wish the community had were more restaurants to walk to, there was one open but not much variety, but it did look like more shops were being renovated to open in the future. The drive to restaurants was close so it was not an issue and nice to get out every now and again if we didn’t cook at the house, which we did often. The beach chairs provided by the house was great and we utilized them every day. Being directly on the beach was so worth it, being able to walk in for a snack or lunch was so wonderful, I would definitely recommend the house for anyone interested in a quiet vacation with no spring breakers on the beach and beautiful views. We can’t stop talking about how wonderful the house and location was and would love to return…. Best vacation we have ever had…. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home.

  Owner response: Thanks for your review and kind words. We are so thankful for the Carillon Beach coastal community for providing such an awesome venue for quiet yet fun Beach vacations. From the private streets for biking to the fun amenities, it seems to have the perfect compliments to enhance the sugar like Beach with aqua clear water.

  Our group of twelve enjoyed our week at Generations. Generations Beach House is beautiful, clean, spacious and just steps from the beach. Pictures and description of the house are accurate. We made several meals during our stay, finding the kitchens well equipped. With all the living room areas and balcones, everyone was able to watch their own movies or just find a quiet space to read. I loved the master suite and balcony! So quiet and comfortable. Plenty of extra bedding and pillows. Our kids rode their scooters around the gated community and up to the ice cream shop. There was boxes of sand toys, boogie boards, crab nets, extra chairs and even a fishing pole in the garage. Our kids went crabbing on the beach each night. Bring flashlights! We went to Red Bar in Grayton Beach for the best fish meal I think I have ever had! Firefly in Panama City and Cowgirl Kitchen in Rosemary Beach also very good. I also recommend ordering pie from Lois- grocery shopper. Her key lime pie is the best! I had to restrain myself from ordering a second key lime pie as the week went on! The owners are so nice, quick to respond and happy to answer any questions.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, families with teenagers, families with young children.

  Owner response: Thanks for your review and kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed your Beach vacation at Generations. Building memories on the Beach and eating together - at Generations - and at the awesome restaurants along the Emerald Coast are two of our favorites. The "home base" location of being half way between Destin and Panama City provides for unlimited options. What a way to end a meal on a Beach vacation: Key lime pie homemade in Florida!

  Generations was better than I expected. We have stayed in the area several times before so we knew what to expect regarding the beach and entertainment oppurtunities. The house is conveniently located right on the beach and we found the facilities to be as they were advertised. The house was comfortably furnished. The kitchens were properly furnished. Beds were very comfortable. The house was very clean and well maintained. We hope to go back again. I highly recommend Generations.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

  Owner response: Thanks for your review. We are glad Generations exceeded your expectations. One of our personal goals in sharing Generations is to have a beach house that would be a "no regrets" choice for our guests. We recognize that vacation time (usually a week) with family and friends is so precious that the location, furnishings, kitchen and beds should be, as much as possible, tools to help that time become lasting memories for the rest of the year.

  This beautiful beachfront home was completely renovated from the last time we stayed there (under different ownership). The renovations are fantastic as the home looks new. It is comfortable, well laid out, and well equipped with the best stocked kitchen and amenities (provision of all soaps) that I have seen in a rental. The owners are extremely easy to work with. Our family had a wonderful stay in this home. The bunk beds are just the right size for young children. The beach is very accessible, making it convenient to go back and forth to the house (another plus with children). I would highly recommend it.

  Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

  Owner response: Thanks so much for your review. Our guests consist of primarily families building beach vacation memories (along with building sand castles!). It is one of our goals to help them do so by providing most of the same conveniences they have at home. It is our hope, in a small way, that those amenities being already stocked will free up more precious time with each other.

  I would highly recommend renting this property. I was so impressed with the professional and personal interactions with the property owners throughout my entire renting process (from the beginning of my inquiry stage to the end of checkout). The home is perfect for small or large families. We especially enjoyed the direct access to the beach for early morning/late evening walks on the beach and you will not want to miss the beautiful sunsets. We also appreciated the many amenities that made our stay so wonderful (grocery service, child safety gates, gas grill, beautiful views, fully stocked kitchen, large table to enjoy big family meals, etc...) We have vacationed on 30A for many years and I am always searching for the perfect vacation/rental home….My search is over! We will most definitely be back!

  Owner response: Thanks so much for the review. When families come to the Beach for vacation one of our reasons for sharing our home with them is so they can use that precious time building lasting memories. Walks on the beach, sharing the sunsets, and meals all together go a long way toward that goal.

  I just returned from a weekend with girlfriends at this fabulous beach house. The accommodations were perfect, from the coastal decor to the breathtaking views. It's not everyday I get to enjoy coffee on a balcony while watching dolphins play only feet in front of me! The house itself is roomy, clean and perfectly located. I look forward to future visits!

  Owner response: So glad you had a great getaway on the Beach! It was so thoughtful for the Dads to let all the Moms have a few days of rest and relaxation together. You deserve it!

  We had a wonderful visit at Generations Beach House. The house sets up perfectly for a large family..there were 10 of us...and we each had our own space. The carriage house is wonderful for a family and also gives some extra privacy. We even had our groceries delivered before we arrived for a minimum payment. The owners of this home make one feel as though they are special folks. Can't beat being on the beach and having your own chairs and umbrellas too! When can I go back???

  Owner response: Thanks for the review. Our guests are special folks! Our guests always give us very positive feedback on having the grocery delivery service handle the shopping and stocking the refrigerators and shelves. We love sharing Generations and are almost as excited for our guests as being there ourselves. We said "almost"!
