The house is in a great location by the pool and great proximity between the cape and Mexico beach. The house was clean and pictures were an accurate representation.

Beautiful clean home with everything you need for a sunny vacation. The pool area is so conveniently located and the hot tub is relaxing at the end of the day. Very conveniently located by many beaches and fine eateries.

Very clean and the location is great! Kitchen is stocked well but remember to bring your own spices, oils etc. There is a drip coffee maker as well as a Keurig and also a blender. Just over the bridge from downtown Port Lst Joe and a short drive the other way to Mexico Beach. Wifi can be a little stubborn but all in all worked well enough (you're on vacation, not working from home!!) Enjoyed the stay and will be back for sure!
Very clean! Beautiful neighborhood. Pool and hot tub was spotless. I was impressed and very happy with our stay.

I had the absolute pleasure of hosting this guest, and I can't wait for them to return! From the moment they arrived, it was clear that they were thoughtful, respectful, and genuinely appreciative of the space. I would be thrilled to have them back as a guest in the future and highly recommend them to any host.
We loved our stay. Everything was clean, the home was comfortable and stocked with everything we needed, and it was just the right size for our family. We loved the location, right in the middle of everything and close to all the amenities in Port St. Joe. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We hope to be back!
