Perfect Paradise

This rental is perfect in every way! Very nicely renovated, stocked with so many extra supplies for the beach, and so clean and inviting! This is our second stay in this unit and we are already planning for next year. We had several people asking us for the rental information. On our unit because we were so pleased and bragging on our unit. It’s simply home away from home in a perfect paradise.

This condo was beautiful! Everything was exactly as described in the listing. Holly was wonderful to deal with. She kept in touch prior to the trip and was easy to get a hold of when we needed her for a very minor issue with the door lock (which she resolved quickly). The master bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in while on vacation. We will definitely return!

Quiet side of PCB

The manager is great to work with, and good communication. Good location on the quiet side. Only 2 miles from St Andrews state park. Several good restaurants close by. Beach chairs were included which is a great perk plus she has wagon chairs and toys in storage. We did not need them but it’s nice to have. On 4th floor with good views of pool and beach. Only complaint is the game room charges for everything, so can get pricey with a couple of kids.

Cleanest condo I have ever rented.

We had a wonderful experience!! The condo was super clean, and it had everything we needed. Holly is amazing! She not only answered all of my questions immediately while we were there, but she responded to a question about the comfortable mattress in the master bedroom after we left. (My husband and I have back problems, and we had the best sleep we’ve had in a long time.) In addition, everyone at Summerhouse was so helpful!! I am sure we will be back again.

Nice short stay

Overall it was nice. The elevator was broken but we were told in advance and given the option to cancel. Holly was easy to get ahold of and she was very informative. The only complaint i had was one of the beds was noticeably not clean. Other than that it was a nice place and well decorated. The pics were accurate.

I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. My cleaners changed the beds and could not understand how sand got in there. Probably the spread was dropped on the floor and was transferred to the bedding. Sand has a way of getting everywhere! They did offer to go by and change it out but you had already changed it yourself. I’m sorry it happened but hopefully this is a learning lesson for the cleaners.

Cannot say enough about our unit or host. With that being said, Summerhouse resort has really gone downhill...besides elevator not working, outside door to the pool didn't work one day, a pool was closed our last day. Really a bummer for the kids with us that couldn't go in the ocean.

I’m so sorry to hear about all the issues. The door is a first as far as I know, occasionally one of the pools has to be closed for a variety of reasons, and the elevator is repaired although the needed part was delayed. However, I am happy to hear y’all obeyed the red flags! I’d love to have you again.

Loved the room & all the extras it has!

The room was great! The only issue we had was with Summerhouse it’s self . The hot tub made a terrible noise the entire time we were there, so much so that we didn’t get in it. Then, I believe their was a gas leak and the area by one of the pools smelled terribly of gas . The front desk couldn’t tell us what building our room was actually in.. there’s 3. We finally picked the right building on the last try . And finally the elevator was out a few times during our stay. The owner of this condo was very helpful though. I would stay here again just because she was so helpful and the room had so many extras! We loved playing UNO at night! We didn’t play any other games but there was so many to choose from!

Thank you for the the personal kind words. I am very sorry for the issues you had with Summerhouse. Although the staff should know which is the A building, I will update my check in document to make sure it is clear 405 A is the center building. We are already in the works for a new elevator. Four years later, from hurricane Michael, we along with many are still in a recovery process. Fortunately we are very near completion! We attend our annual HOA meeting next week and will address all concerns. I look forward to having you back and I’m always available if you have questions.

Amenities & More

This was honestly one of the best condos we’ve stayed in on the beach. The owner was super easy to work with and quick to reply to any questions. The condo was immaculate and clean. This owner does so much for her guests to make it feel like home away from home. Each shower had a filled dispenser of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. There was hand soap and dish soap in the unit. There’s an entire closet full of beach accessories, including a big cooler bag, beach wagon, 2 styrofoam coolers, 3 or 4 folding beach chairs, 2 beach umbrellas, games and more!! (plus the unit comes with 2 rental wooden beach chairs and an umbrella!). There were laundry detergent, sanitizer, and dryer sheets in the closet. We were so thankful we left what we brought to pay it forward to the next guests of this owner. All this to basically say BEST VALUE ON THE BEACH!!! I highly recommend this unit and we will stay here again in the future.
