Beautiful home, well-equipped, and an easy, short walk to the beach. Ample space to spread out and relax. One of the best VRBOs we've stayed in. Our kids (and us!) didn't want to leave.

Steps from the Ocean – Loved It!!

⸻We had a wonderful stay at the Sea Pony! The location was unbeatable — just a short walk to the ocean, which made morning strolls and sunset views incredibly special. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. You can really feel the care the host puts into making guests feel welcome. Our family would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful beach escape.

Save yourself from over packing. This property had everything to fit my families needs including items for the beach (towels, toys, chairs, wagon, boogey boards , kayaks, coolers...you name it they had it), a full kitchen, plenty of space, and very convenient to beach and the local shops. The communication was great and I will definitely use this property again when visiting Mexico beach.

Great Place!

The Sea Pony has everything you need from sharp kitchen knives to beach buggy and chairs. The owners have thought of everything. You really can just show up and enjoy the beach without having to pack your entire house to bring with you. The walk to the beautiful beach and the cute shops is short and easy with sidewalks for safety. I would highly recommend The Sea Pony. You won’t be disappointed!

Exceeded expectations

We took a 5 day trip with my teen, grown children and friends. The Sea Pony was located directly across street from beach entrance. No need to pack beach essentials because everything was available. Boys were able to fish and kayak while girls enjoyed time on beach. House was exceptionally clean. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking. Very clean! Garage to park car. Great balcony for morning coffee. Ice cream shop within walking distance. Host answered messages quickly. Most definitely will stay here again.

Perfect home away on the beach

Our recent stay at The Sea Pony in Mexico Beach far exceeded our wildest expectations! Having rented numerous properties over the years, we can confidently say that this one takes the cake. The meticulous care invested in this property shines through in every detail. From the fully stocked kitchen boasting every utensil and spice imaginable to the luxurious beds and linens, every aspect exceeded our expectations. We relished in leisurely walks across the street to the secluded stretch of beach, indulging in the pristine white sands and azure waters. The rental even provided everything necessary for a perfect beach day! Despite the tranquility of Mexico Beach, the convenience of a short drive to Port St Joe for diverse dining and shopping options was unbeatable. Even on rainy days, the nearby excursion to Apalachicola proved to be a delightful adventure. And who could forget the morning spent beachcombing on Cape San Blas? Without a doubt, we will eagerly return to The Sea Pony for another unforgettable stay!

About the host

Hosted by Brett and Robbi Wendel

Hello, Thank you for considering our home. I’m Robbi and I was born and grew up in Florida and enjoyed the Gulf beaches as often as life would allow. My husband, Brett, and I live in the Nashville area. This is our home that we enjoy with our family every chance work and schedules will allow. We are not a rental nor investment company. We are very much vested in keeping our home in great shape for ourselves and our guests. When we are not using our home we offer it for short term rentals. We will eventually retire here.

Why they chose this property

We chose Mexico Beach, Florida for its gorgeous white quartz sand beach, uncrowded and laid back lifestyle. This area is family oriented and and not a party town Mexico Beach is unlike the high rise and high density other beaches in the panhandle.

What makes this property unique

Our townhome is a small group of only 3 units, not a large complex with loads of people. This provides privacy and convenience with the beach literally a short block away and a neighborhood park right next door. Also we have a coffee shop, ice cream and unique shops all close by. Having a garage is a plus for storage of beach essentials - many of which we share with our guests.
