⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"This was a great location and the beach felt very private. Mitch was a great host and was very communicative with me before the trip! I really appreciated him going above and beyond and getting back to me promptly. I would definitely stay here again and you can’t beat the location and privacy of the beach. It almost felt as if we had the whole beach to ourselves! They do provide towels, beach toys/gear, and beach chairs for you, but if you prefer getting a beach service, I recommend Emerald Coast Beach Service. They service the neighborhood and were super great to work with. I would definitely stay here again." - Mary-Elizabeth, Sept 2025

The property was just what we were looking for - plenty of space for our family of 5, great private beach access, and well stocked with everything we needed. The property manager, Mitch, was also very responsive. We would love to come back.

Great beach vacation
Location to the beach was great, disappointed there was no hose or shower on the back of the house to wash off sand and salt water before entering house. There was no access to the front outdoor shower from the back beach access. Beds were extremely comfortable. Would have liked to have more restaurants and shops within walking distance but otherwise everything was great!

Fantastic Family Time!
Host was extremely kind and responsive. While this is an older house, it was a great space for two adults, two teens and our dog. We had a wonderful time in this neighborhood. Location is excellent.Just a short walk to a gorgeous beach

Wonderful beach access!
Our family of 4 (teen and big kid) had a great week at this unit. I could walk from the back door to the water's edge in 2 minutes and that's at a middle-aged mom pace. The path to the beach is all private boardwalk, no streets to cross so you can feel safe letting the kids go ahead. Everything was just as described. Very clean, well-stocked kitchen, lots of beach toys and chairs. Having 3 king beds and 3 showers was great! The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful but there is lots to do within a short drive. I definitely recommend renting bikes as we could bike to many shops and cafes. We spent our time biking, walking the beach, playing in the ocean and going out to eat and it was the perfect area for that. Communication with the property manager was very timely and they offered lots of suggestions for the area. The only thing I would note is that there are a lot of stairs to navigate - stairs within the unit, stairs from the deck to the backyard, and stairs from the boardwalk down to the beach. That was no problem for our family but if you are traveling with someone who needs to consider that, it's good to know.
