Relaxing large home with a great back yard.

We enjoyed our stay. The only thing was the home was a little dusty but I only noticed bc I have chronic asthma. The mattresses could be updated. But everything went fine and we would stay again. The back yard is amazing! Good for dogs and pets!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect for walking the beach almost daily during our 34 day visit. We also gladly walked to most of the restaurants on Pensacola Beach. The house was private and we felt very comfortable. Paradise Beach Homes service was very cordial and prompt. We've already booked for next year. Thank you!!

A very nice property....

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very comfortable home, kitchen well stocked with everything needed. Large back yard is securely fenced for dogs to enjoy. The only suggestions would be to put door on master bedroom for privacy and add a couple of chaise lounge chairs to the backyard to soak up the sun!

Great house with great backyard and close to the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The booking process with Paradise Beach homes was easy and we were even able to get into our property a little earlier. The house was extremely clean and had all the necessary supplies. The backyard was perfect for our dog and we enjoyed grilling and hanging out on the patio. The beach is a short walk or an very quick golf cart ride and it wasn't crowded at all. I would definitely rent this house again!

Great location, comfortable and roomy property. Suggest periodic emptying of ice maker, it was frozen over and ice dispenser not working and moisture collecting around door and on floor. I finally got it loose and emptied it and that seemed to resolve problems.

45th birthday weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: When I checked in to get the keys, I was surprised that I was not asked for ID. This is not bad, but was a little odd. We went to the house to get moved in and were astounded by how much dust covered almost everything. The home is beautiful, but there was so much dust it was disturbing. We had guests coming for a dinner that night and we had to spend hours cleaning dust from all of the rooms. The fee for cleaning was $175.00, and I truly don't feel it is worth the work that is put into the property.I had little to no interaction with the staff, so I cannot really say how professional they are.

Good location but run down

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It’s in a good location but the house needs a lot of upkeep. It’s not as nice as the photos suggest. The blankets and sofa also weren’t very clean (dog hair and trash in the sofa cushions). The biggest plus was the fenced in yard which we needed for our dogs. They also failed to mention that construction was going on directly across the street where beach access was. Not cool. It was noisy and unpleasant. That should’ve been disclosed. Price was too high for what you get.

Excellent location but Property needs detail cleaning

We loved the location of this property - close to the beach and the restaurants. However, the inside of the property was clean enough for us to tolerate but we disinfect the surfaces in the kitchen and bathrooms before we settled in. The floors were not clean and my wife found dog hair on one of the mattress covers - we washed the bed sheets for that bed. The refrigerator had a foul smell to it. As for the outside, the landscaping looked great but the exterior of the property including the deck needs some work. If we received assurances that the property will undergo a deep detail cleaning on the inside and the outside issue will be remediated, then we might stay here again.
