Thank you for the glowing review, Brian! We're thrilled to hear that you found our house to be one of the nicest you've stayed in. We apologize for any inconvenience with the elevator and appreciate your understanding. We hope to have you back for another beautiful stay soon!
Check in and check out easy and straightforward. Beautiful, spacious and immaculate home right on the beach in a quiet town perfect for family gatherings. Fully equipped kitchen with everything needed to prepare and enjoy meals for large groups. Top notch appliances and furnishings made the stay a cut above. Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy privacy and their own views of the gulf. Pool beneath the home was a perfect oasis from the sun, with a constant breeze to cool you off. Plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas etc... Short drive to nearby towns such as Port St. Joe, Mexico Beach, Apalachicola, Panama City Beach and Rosemary Beach.

Thank you, Frank, for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the beautiful home and its amenities, as well as the nearby destinations. We look forward to hosting your next family getaway!
The home was beautiful, great views of the gulf and direct beach access. The kitchen was very well stocked. We would stay again but the very busy highway the house sits on was noisy and disrupted and peaceful time enjoying the back porches. The ad for the home should state the elevator was not available for guests; 4 flights of stairs was a bit much for the whole week.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Laura. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the beautiful home, views, and beach access. We apologize for any confusion regarding elevator access. Our listing mentions that the elevator is not available for guest use, but we understand this may have been missed. We hope you will consider staying with us again.
We thoroughly loved this property. It's deceptively large and it's clear the owner/management company is very thoughtful in the way they stocked the kitchen. It has all the basic amenities as well as some luxury items. This may be an odd thing to note but this is the first rental property I've stayed at that had sharp knives! What a small thing but if you cook regularly, dull knives make the process tedious. The furniture was comfortable and the well stocked board games and puzzles were a welcome activity when it was just too hot to go out. Will definitely add to my favorites!

Hi Jonathan,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the spaciousness of the home, the thoughtfully stocked kitchen, and those sharp knives — we agree, those little details make a big difference. It’s great that the furniture and games helped make your stay comfortable and fun, even on the hottest days.
We truly appreciate you adding us to your favorites and hope to host you again soon!
Wow what an awesome rental!! There were 10 adults and 2 kids in our group and we had so much space!! The pool heater was broke so the pool was cold- a little disappointing but we worked with it. I would suggest taking the pictures of the elevator off the listing and maybe remove the directions since it is for owner use only. The management company was very responsive. We will stay here again. Thank you so much for sharing your space with us.

Beautiful home and fabulous beach access
Everything was wonderful except VRBO listing stated there was an elevator and when we got there we were told it was only for owners use despite signs on every floor on how to operate it. The kitchen was well stocked except there was only one cookie sheet and lots of huge pots but no small to medium sized pots. The pool was nice and shaded but as a result was cold, however the kids still got in. We truly enjoyed our stay and may book the same house if we return to Mexico Beach.
