Just as listed. Very clean place. Probably the cleanest place I've ever stayed at with VRBO. Easy access to the beach. Plenty of beach toys and chairs to use. Even got into our place a couple of hours earlier than regular check in time which was nice.

An incredibly beautiful ocean and beach view from this gorgeous beach decor condo. Love the private balcony. Fully stocked kitchen with all you need. This is our 3rd stay here and we will definitely be back. Barbara is such a wonderful host. She has created an ocean paradise for guests to relax and enjoy. Great location with easy access to restaurants in both Port St. Joe and Mexico Beach.

This is a great location! This is the second time we have stayed here. Communications with the owner was good. The AC went out and the repairman was there in less than an hour to fix it. There is an elevator which is great if you have someone in your party who is unable to handle the stairs (or for hauling up luggage). The boardwalk, outdoor shower, hose and beach supplies all make your beach day easy. Since we were on vacation I didn’t do much cooking at all; just canned biscuits. The toaster, oven, sink and coffee pot were in perfect working order. We spent a lot of time on the balcony just drinking coffee and watching the waves roll in. Very relaxing. 10 out of 10 will stay here again!

Great place to stay in St.Joe!

We had an amazing stay! The room was very clean, and the views were absolutely stunning. The beach was perfect for relaxing and spending quality time, and there were some fantastic local restaurants nearby. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful with any questions we had. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone planning a trip to St. Joe—beautiful beach, great location, and a wonderful overall experience!

Clean and scenic!

Condo is in great shape and you can't beat the view and beach access. Only minor complaint is road noise in the bedrooms but that's obviously outside the host's control. Would recommend!

Great relaxing week on the beach! The boardwalk out to the sand made it super easy for those of us with bad knees and backs to reach the beach. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, cooking utensils, etc. The elevator was definitely needed for those less mobil and to haul the suitcases. I personally enjoyed having breakfast on the porch and watching the dolphins, fish and birds.

Great location!

Perfect location! Very thoughtful touches provided throughout. Only small point would be wish it was more clear that there would be a shared entrance. Each floor is rented separately, and the stairwell is a shared space. Still, we enjoyed our stay immensely and loved the flexibility to bring a pet!

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Pickels

Host profile image
I rebuilt after hurricane Michael and enjoy seeing others share in the beauty of my beach. I am so blessed to live here on this beach. I love the laughter of children playing and frolicking in the water and adults enjoying the sea breeze.

Why they chose this property

Sunrise from bedroom and sunset views from the rest of the house. Restaurants and shopping near by. It is called the forgotten coast because it does not have the crowds of the over built beaches. Our area does not allow high rise buildings. It still has the charm and quietness of the beaches from the 50's era.

What makes this property unique

This is the perfect beach. It has sugar white sand and clear water. Due to the locations of Cape San Blas to us it creates little to no under tow on our beaches. It is ideal for young children to play in the water. No place is closer to the waters edge and the views are the best. There is a spectacular view from every window.
