WHAT OUR GUESTS LOVE
✹ The neighborhood is wonderful, the house had everything you need for a beach vacation, and access to the gulf cart was added fun. Check in was super easy and the hosts communicated very well.
✹ We had two families with kids and the grandparents. Everyone had plenty of space and activities galore - heated swimming pool, outdoor games, game room inside and heaps of board games. The kitchen and BBQ are well equipped for cooking, but also close to restaurants in Mexico Beach and Port St Joe. The home and linens were spotless.
✹ The house has two wings and a central common area, perfect for large groups. The area is walkable to the gulf or the golf cart, honestly there was so much to do at the house we ended up skipping the gulf for most of the trip! The beach area and the gulf itself is beautiful in this area
✹ The house is very spacious for my family of 10 & always something to keep even our teens happy!
✹ Excellent! This house is a kid’s paradise. Offered more than any other listing I’ve seen. Host communicated promptly with any questions we had.
✹ Tim and Katie provided an awesome experience for my family. It had a ton of entertainment with a beautiful pool that was heated and a beautiful beach across the street.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Tim & Katie Griffin

We are an international family of four - Tim, Katie, Luke & Spencer. We love to travel and spend as much time as we can outdoors exploring nature. One of our favorite spots is the white-sand beaches of Florida so we decided to buy a second home here to share with other like-minded people who love to spend quality time together and build life-long memories. Sunny St Joe was the perfect spot for us - only 2 blocks to a spectacular beach, a large enough space for multiple families, a huge pool, and only 10 minutes from downtown Port St Joe. We have a background in hospitality and love creating fun guest experiences!
Why they chose this property
It's a cozy little beach neighborhood with a relaxed vibe. We love that the beach is pet-friendly and has a modest number of visitors compared to nearby beaches, which makes it perfect for families. We enjoy taking the golf cart to pick up groceries right down the street, hitting the food trucks in the summer, and our favorite restaurant Shipwreck less than a mile down the road.
What makes this property unique
Games. Lots of them. Pool, shuffleboard, foosball, ping pong, pickleball, badminton, cornhole, bocce, pool basketball, pool volleyball, board games, and puzzles.
The golf cart is included, and you won't find a standalone sauna anywhere else nearby!
