It’s hard to find a place that feels so much like home that isn’t actually your home—but Mint Julep is just that. The owners have thought of it ALL. This place and area in general is truly a little slice of heaven and I have no notes other than how amazing this home is! As a mom to 3 young kids, I’ve been searching for a place that we can vacation for years to come, and we have officially found it. Do yourself a favor and book the stay, you won’t regret it!

It means so much to know the home had everything you needed and that it created such a special experience for you and your young children. We love hearing that you’ve found a place you can return to for years to come—that is exactly what we hope to provide for our guests. Thank you again for your heartfelt recommendation. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back anytime!

We had a truly excellent vacation in Watercolor. The quality of the rental home was superb in terms of amenities, cleanliness, comfort, and location. The management company was very responsive when a minor maintenance issue came up with the hot tub. Highly recommend this home and vacationing in Watercolor in general. We will definitely return.

As nice, or nicer, than photos. This was our first visit to area and found this to be a great location for all things Watercolor and Seaside. Especially with the golf cart.Code access and parking is in back. And the pool alarm on the back door is tricky- but I think that is a Florida thing.
