Second Stay this Summer

We stayed at this property once in June and enjoyed it so much we came back at the end of July! The house is exactly as listed (if not better than depicted in the photos) and just perfect for my family. It’s a close walk to the beach with the beach chairs/umbrella included in the listing. It’s a quieter neighborhood with the gate which we appreciate and still in the middle of everything once you walk out of the gate. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating which I was very appreciative of. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful Property Close to Everything

This was a wonderful house for my family of four which includes two little kids although easily holds more than one family with the nice bonus of having two King masters. The pool was the perfect size for the kids and the beach is a very quick walk. I enjoyed how quiet the property was late night as the neighborhood is gated yet in the middle of Rosemary and Seacrest for easy access to shops/restaurants. The house was exactly as listed in the photos and we would definitely rent this property again.

Wonderful home and location

This is a lovely, clean, and well-stocked home in a prime location! We loved having easy access to the beach and having the small, private pool at the front of the house. As other reviewers have said, the kitchen is especially well-stocked and we also appreciated that there were beach toys. It worked so well for our family of two adults and two very young kids. Beth was so responsive and helpful, including coordinating with the service that delivered our rented crib and high chair. We would love to come back!

Thank you!

We said multiple times: best location!! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home. The layout worked beautifully for our family and the location to the beach and all that is Rosemary Beach could not be beat. There were a ton of college parties and bachelorette parties next to us, but you couldn't hear them once the sun went down. We love the HOA for that reason alone. We never worried about our kids exploring and giving them freedom. The house was incredibly clean. We wish there had been a starter set of soap, shampoo and conditioner so we didn't have to run to the grocery store as soon as we arrived. If that's the worst thing to deal with, we completely won. Everything else we needed for a lovely stay was there. Communication with the owner was not only easy, but delightful. She is gracious and attentive. I will not hesitate to reserve this home again.

Great for families with teens

We took our teenage daughters and their friends for Spring Break. Loved this location right next to Rosemary Beach so all the restaurants and shops are close by but it’s a gated community with private beach access. The house was so cute and plenty of room for everyone.

Five stars!

We had a wonderful experience staying at Villa Paradiso. The house seemed bigger in person than what the photos show online. There was plenty of space for four adults and four children. Two pack-and-plays, a baby booster seat for the dinner table, a fully stocked kitchen with many appliances (even a Keurig, large closet spaces, plenty of space in the rooms. Beach access was super easy and quick. The Sonos system was awesome and easy to connect to. Beth was extremely responsive anytime I reached out. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Second wonderful visit to Villa Paradiso

We had such a wonderful time the first year, we decided to come back for a second trip to Villa Paradiso! The location can’t be beat - easy access to the beach and short walk to Rosemary town square. It’s so nice to have a private pool also! It’s the perfect sized pool for kids like ours - age 5 and 7. The house is so comfortable and spacious. My husband and I both had to do some work while we were there and the internet was strong enough to support both of us doing that at the same time. Last time we visited was in April and this time in June was much hotter and more crowded but we were still able to get into the restaurants we wanted. I have a feeling we will be back again and again.

Perfect Location

This was our first time vacationing on 30A and we couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. Beth was super responsive and helpful - especially with us traveling with three small children. The house is a short walk to the beach and the private pool was great for the kids. The walkability to downtown Rosemary was an unexpected treat. We took strolls around the area multiple times a day.

This home was absolutely perfect. Location simply can’t be beat. The hosts were over the top helpful and took care of our questions super promptly. The layout provided plenty of privacy for all of us. Lovely home with beautiful finishes. Loved the private pool, and the beach service was a huge perk! We loved walking through the beautiful town, shopping, eating and listening to live music every night. We will absolutely be back and will most certainly book this house again.

What a gem!

If anything, the ad for this property holds back on just how perfect it is. Location, communication with management, house layout, the proximity to shopping, restaurants, and the walk to the beach are perfect. If you don’t feel like taking a car every single time you want to go somewhere (such as Destin and Miramar) then this place is made for you. Bike or walk to any store or attraction in the community. 10/10 for this rental!

Perfect get away

The property is perfectly described. Literally 50 yards from the beach. Secluded yet right across the street from the shops at Rosemary Beach. We had an issue with the grill and the host actually had it replaced with a new one the next day. And, while this may not be a big deal to some, I cook, and really appreciated the Emeril Lagasse knife set where all the knives were sharp. BIG plus. Will definitely be back to this home.

About the host

Hosted by Beth

We are a fun, loud, Italian family!! :) Our parents came from Naples, Italy in 1968 to live the 'American Dream.' We have always loved to travel as a family and have seen some great places around the world. Our favorite destination? The BEACH! When we visited 30A for the first time many years ago, we were hooked!

Why they chose this property

It has been our dream to have a beach house to call our own. We love this area and its close-knit communities - walking and biking to everything has a real European sensibility. The gourmet restaurants, fun shops, family activities, gorgeous water and white sand - what more can you ask for!
