We enjoyed our stay! The property is conveniently located 6-7 minutes to Port St. Joe restaurants and shopping.Front row seats to beautiful sunsets every evening!We did some fishing in the ponds around the house on the golf course when golfing hours were finished and had some good catches and saw a couple of small gators. The layout of the home is wonderful with everything on one level with plenty of room. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were oh so soft! Wish I had looked to see what brand.The private pool had just finished construction and was a great addition and added to the stay! The kiddos had a great time and we had a portable speaker and it added to their fun! The only hiccups were that the code for the lock box did not work when we arrived and we had a grandparent needing a bathroom ASAP. I messaged the property manager and they reset the code. There were also a few dishes that had either not been washed or the dishwasher did not get cleaned (dried egg on a bowl and plates and lipstick on a knife). I let the property manager know and they offered to have the cleaning service come out, but we just hand washed a few things for our own peace of mind and had brought some paper plates and cups for our use anyway so we didn't feel it was necessary. Everything else was very clean!Would book again! Thank you!

Our stay at Sunset Views

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed this house very much. It is a really nice house. I loved that is an older coastal house and it was clean and up to date. It is close to town and some good eating places. The sunsets are spectacular! The only downside was the busy highway just out front and the maintenance and lawn care that went on, without notification, in the earlier part of the day for 2 or 3 days. I was alone the first morning and someone was banging around under the house and then the electricity went off momentarily. Was a little heart stopping. I think it was the electric company just because I saw a pickup leaving that had some name on the door. All in all it was a good stay and a great house.

Short stay for Family Wedding

Great place , plenty of room to enjoy, only negative was could have used more towels and extra pillow cases for the extra pillows , also needed more then one roll of bathroom paper in each bathroom! It was very comfortable. We were in town for a wedding and also needed an Iron and ironing board that the house didn’t have ! But overall , the house was very nice!

Sunsets, Serenity, and Sweet Memories in Port St. Joe

This home in Port St. Joe was truly one of the best vacation rentals we've ever experienced. We were traveling with our two granddaughters—ages 2 years and a newborn—for their first beach getaway and wanted a peaceful, family-friendly spot that still offered a vacation feel. This property exceeded all our expectations.The view from the spacious front porch was stunning at every hour, especially at sunset—definitely a highlight for all of us. Inside, the home was exceptionally clean, modern, and well-appointed. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen featured quality appliances and dishes—not the typical rental-grade supplies.Our older kids (ages 23, 21, and 18) made great use of the firepit on the back deck, and we were blown away by how thoughtfully stocked the house was. Everything we needed was already there, plus some delightful extras—like a bin filled with toys that kept our toddler entertained throughout the week!We’re so grateful for a wonderful stay and are already planning our next trip. We’d absolutely love the chance to return to this gem in Port St. Joe.

Great place to stay for a fishing weekend with friends!

I stayed at the property from 2/28 to 3/2 with six friends from around the state and had a wonderful time. The house was extremely clean and comfortable inside and out. Because we were all coming from around the state we needed a place with lots of parking and this house fit the bill perfectly. There was ample parking for five cars, three of which had small boats on trailers, and there was even room for two of them under the house. The rooms were all extremely clean and well appointed and the house accommodated seven adults comfortably. We loved the location and the proximity to boat ramps we were launching from. The sunset views from the front porch were absolutely spectacular and the screened in front and rear patios were nice places to wind down at the end of the day or in the morning. The home isn't near any other homes so you have the freedom to worry a little less about being noisy in the evenings than you would in a different neighborhood. And to top it all off, there's even a little private pond that has some very surprising species in it if you're interested in catching fish on premises. The only little thing was that the pictures showed a ping-pong table as one of the amenities but apparently that was damaged in a storm and not replaced. Wasn't a big deal for us because we had plenty else to do, but was something worth noting if that was something you're counting on. Overall, The house was perfect for what we needed and I would absolutely stay there again!
