Turquoise Gem #4 was the perfect place to celebrate our milestone Anniversary. Our host, John, was a great communicator and answered all of our questions even before we checked in. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. It was conveniently located, and the nearby restaurants were all friendly and delicious. The beach is beautiful and just a short walk from this wonderful home away from home. There are lots of things to see and do close by so book early. You won’t be disappointed!

Great stay!

Great location, short walk to the beach! Host was very responsive when we reached out. Overall, would recommend for a small family. Place is not big, but definitely big enough for a family of 3 or 4.

Great host communication. Property quaintly recessed with old Florida feel! Very clean and modern redo/decor with nice shower and efficient kitchen. Steps to gorgeous Gulf beach, excellent restaurants/deli and gift shop. Two large screen TV's but who has time for that! Easy drive to popular Gulf destinations. This is a lovely retreat for a memorable vacation.

Turquoise Gem is an absolute beacher's paradise! Just a short walk and you are on the white sand to soak in the warmth of the sun. The recently renovated decor was cozy and comfortable, and the beach-themed decor and provided amenities helped make our stay pleasurable. My husband enjoyed watching sports on the large televisions while I enjoyed reading on the outside patio. There are several restaurants within walking distance as well as a deli and small market where you can buy the "essentials." The owner was very responsive and answered all our questions promptly. He gave us several good suggestions on local restaurants and also provided a "stash" of beach supplies in a locked shed behind the unit. Turquoise Gem truly is a "gem!" We are looking forward to a return visit!
