Excellent access to the beach with two walk ups private for the community. The property is also gated and features plenty of room to park, so this is a good rental for a small group/family. The location is great for those who want to explore both Port St. Joe and beyond to Mexico Beach, or simply Indian Pass and Cape San Blas. The upstairs master suite also makes it great for travelling with children. Dog washing station is a big plus!

Beautiful house with a beautiful view. Very quiet area which was nice. Short walk to the beach.

Everything was great. Kitchen was fully equipped. It was hard to find a negative but we were hoping to have access to a grill. Other than that we would definitely rent this house again!!

Curve Road Beach trip

We loved the house. As expected and more. Loved that it was gated. Enjoyed playing cornhole in the garage that the owners furnished when it was raining. Great access to beach. Family friendly. Quick friendly responses when I had questions.

Fantastic, comfortable, well appointed home. We had a great stay and really enjoyed both our time in and out of the home. Inside is super comfortable for meals and chill time. The upstairs bedroom / bath and balcony are pretty amazing. The view from there is special. Truly steps from the beach down one of two private access paths and even though it was spring break because of where the house is on the beach we literally at times had the beach to ourselves. Definitely a high recommendation to stay, unwind and enjoy. Our lab had the best time of all. Pet friendly home, pet friendly beach happy lab. Must try’s Indian Pass Oyster Bar, Hunts Oyster Bar for sunset, and Skulkys Low Country Boil ( super kind people and very generous portions ), best brewery Buoy Brewing in Apalachicola, flyfishing guide Danielle with Forgotten Coast Fly Company. Couple of tips Neighborhood is gated, be sure to ask for the gate code. Indiana Pass General Store is open and is close and convenient. Cheers !

First Trip to Florida

The house was absolutely beautiful. Beach was just a short walk from house. Waking up to look at the ocean was wonderful! Sunset was amazing on the beach. Sunrise I tried to see from the upper patio and it was rough! I wanted to get to the beach to see it but didn’t make it in time!! Getting in was a bit rough but they made it right! I would absolutely rent this place again! And probably will when we do go again!

Beautiful Home

We enjoyed our time at Curve Appeal! The walk to the beach isn't far at all, and the drive to other beaches in the area is super close. The screened in porch is fantastic, and the porch upstairs is perfect for star gazing. The steps going into the home are a workout, and scary for our dog. It would really be a nice touch if they would let you use the elevator. They also had someone come to work on the washing machine and no one told us that they were coming, and he was very rude. Over all a great place to stay.

Thank you for sharing your experience, we're delighted that you enjoyed our home and had a great stay! Unfortunately, the elevator is not in the listing as being available for guest use, and we regret any inconvenience this may have caused. Additionally, the front desk staff did reach out to let you know that the appliance tech was on the way and we apologize that this notification was not received in a timely manner. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again soon.

Vacation at the Cape

The house was very nice and easy access to walk to the beach. It would be nice if the path to the beach had a wooden walk way instead of just the sand. The sand spurs got in my dogs paws very painful had to carry her to the beach. I stepped on a few and dang they hurt. Red Tide showed it's glory so not much beach activity we got to do. We still had a great vacation

Great house but lacked cleanliness

The house was great itself but as soon as you walk in you get a very strong odor. We believe it to be dog pee smell and there was a massive amount of dog hair everywhere. The property manager came in and put a scented plug-in in the wall to cover up the smell. There was no notes/directions left for caring and cleaning of house for check out. The living room tv was hard to figure out with no directions left either. During the day the house would heat up and air conditioner could not keep up. One day during stay we had an alarm going off all day long and was evening before someone was able to get it off. Turns out it was the elevator (but to bad guest can't use that to bring up luggage.) Lovely house but would have enjoyed more if it was cleaned better.
