The small beach town of Mexico Beach is known for its excellent fishing, laid-back lifestyle, beautiful white sandy beaches, and emerald green waters. Located just a few short blocks from the beach you can jump on the golf cart, take a stroll, or drive to the Gulf of Mexico where miles of sugary white sand and sparkling water awaits you. For the fishing enthusiast, the public boat ramp is just a few miles away, and don't forget there is parking for your boat. Visit nearby Port St. Joe for shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment. Downtown offers cute shops and restaurants along Reid Avenue. Don't forget to check out the historical Lighthouse and Sea Turtle Museum. We love our sea turtles! So when you are ready to slow down and enjoy a break from life's demands, come visit us and stay in the "Sand Dollar". You'll make memories of a lifetime!
When you are ready to hit the beach you will find miles and miles of natural beauty for you to explore. Grab a pole and go shore fishing, stroll on the beach looking for shells, splash in the refreshing salt water, relax and soak up some rays, there is something for everyone. Area construction disclaimer: Our beautiful area has been under reconstruction since Hurricane Michael in 2018. We have come a long way since then, but there is still a considerable amount of new construction going on in the area. While we strive to give you an accurate representation in our photos, we cannot guarantee that new construction near your rental hasn't begun since our photos were taken.

We love to hear that our guest can feel at home! Mission accomplished ;). Thank you for leaving a warm loving review! We would love the opportunity to host you all again, please come back and see us on your next planned vacation.
Nice house and accurate listing. Pool access from the house is through MBR which isn't bad if you have young kids. Quiet neighborhood with short drive and longish walk (especially in the summer) to the beach.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay in Mexico Beach at The Sand Dollar. The pool construction is complete. We hope you will return for a visit and stay with us.
The house was clean, bed was comfortable and it felt like home. We enjoyed the privacy of the pool and the location is very close to the beach. The fenced in backyard was good for our small dog.

Bass family vacation
This was our second stay at The Sand Dollar Home was very clean as always. Removing the sliding back door and replacing with regular door made a bid difference in the cooling of master bedroom. If home had a screened back porch it would be perfect. We are already booked for Labor Day 2025. Sunshine Vacation Rental is very easy to work with. Thanks for a great July 4th. Also the pool is great and very clean.

Thank you so much for your positive review. It always makes us happy to hear our guests enjoyed their stay with us. The Sand Dollar is truly a unique property offering access to the gulf and also a private backyard oasis complete with a pool. We look forward to the opportunity to host you again in the future.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Sand Dollar. The area is still recovering from the hurricane so there is not a lot to do in Mexico Beach which led to many trips to/from Port St. Joe. Ultimately, this is a great place if you're looking for a relaxing getaway without the large crowd.

My son and I just spend a short weekend down in Mexico Beach. We loved our stay at the house. Everything was brand new - and in tip top shape. The layout was perfect for relaxing and felt like our home away from home. Looking forward to going back again and will definitely stay here!
