Management company needs to do better job of checking the house before guests arrive. The trash was a big thing for me.

The house was in a perfect location! It was nice, quiet and not crowded. It was clean and stocked with a few days of necessities. They provided cute gift boxes for each bathroom and kitchen filled with all the necessities needed. The elevator was a nice bonus when unloading our things. The layout was nice and roomy with an open kitchen/dining room to communicate. The view of the ocean from the deck was absolutely beautiful! There was an extra small living room was nice for the kids to have their own space to play or watch tv. There were a few issues with the house that their maintenance took care of in a reasonable time. We were thankful they accommodated us with a/c units for the house since their main a/c unit had issues. Suggestions would be fix leaky kitchen faucet, spray for bugs and rats outdoors. It would have been nice to have a screened in porch as we had many noseeum bites! When we arrived there were remnants of a watermelon thrown in the grass which we watched a few rats chew on. We experienced some roaches on the main level and top floor bedrooms. There is or what appears to be an abandoned house next door that needs a lot of work and cleaning done. The equipment rental company they use is amazing. Very fast responses and check in texts. All in all great place for our first family beach trip. I would recommend staying there but maybe check in with host to make sure no issues ahead of time. When you book that far in advanced, you want the place to be as advertised.

Stay was fun, house was nice, clean, great location. The only thing that would have made it a 5 is a boardwalk to the beach. Most of the other houses next door had one. The pulling of beach carts on sand was a haul!

Beautiful View - Needs Some Maintenance

We chose this property because of the location & unobstructed view of the Gulf, which did not disappoint. The other major factor was having an elevator since a couple of folks in our family have knee & hip issues. The elevator did not work and could not be repaired while we were there. One o f the showers didn’t have hot water, even though the sink did.We weren’t completely unhappy, but I feel that the property management should have offered something to help make up for having to lug our bags, gear & groceries 3 to 4 flights up all those stairs.

Beautiful house & view

We loved the house & location. Nicely decorated & furnished. Sunrise/sunset views were amazing & we enjoyed the porches & long walks on the beach. Saw dolphins several days & an alligator on the beach the first day we were there! It’s hard to find a house for a large group with enough beds & we wished the massive upper floor had more options besides the one bed. Also wished for more bathrooms that were available w/o going through someone’s bedroom. The elevator was super helpful. Kitchen well equipped. May want to have a pest control visit (tiny critters seen on cooktop when burners are turned on?? 😳) & check lighting. The bunk room was so dim it was hard to see.

Nice home

Enjoyed the home. There was plenty of room for all 12 of us. There are two dunes to walk over to get to the beach. I would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues. We rented a golf cart to drive on the beach since one of our group did have mobility issues. Golf cart was a game changer and the cart access was just 2 rivals away from the cart path. The beach was gorgeous. The property manager was awesome. I was informed before we got there that there was a problem with the sliding glass door handle and someone would be out to fix it when the parts came in. Coffee pot was broken they replaced it immediately. Beds were comfy.

This was our second year in a row staying at this property for our family vacation. When I asked the kids where they would like to go, they said "Same place as last year!" The property has plenty of room for everyone. The location is wonderful and we love that it is right on the beach. Nice clean property with plenty of linens for our family of 6. Will probably book this again for next year!

Beautiful home right on the water!!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was better than described. It was right on the sand with just a very short walk to the water with beautiful views throughout the home. Our only negative was that the property grounds aren’t well kept. There was A LOT of trash on the lot and a long the driveway. Overall great trip!

Overall we enjoyed our stay.

We loved the view and beaches. The elevator didn’t work which was a really big bummer because there are 3 flights of stairs to carry luggage up and down, and just daily a lot of stairs, but they did send a maintenance guy out to attempt to repair. There are some locks missing on some of the sliding doors.

We had a great vacation.

This is a great place for a family that enjoys an uncrowded beach experience. There were a few issues with the home that should be addressed. My wife was concerned about seeing roaches in the pantry and other areas. The grille was terrible and should be replaced and there are loose spindles on the porch railing that were worrisome for the toddler we had with us. In addition, the 360 staff did not respond to one inquiry left through VRBO and took days to respond to a second inquiry. Please consider my comments as constructive criticism because we had a great vacation at this property.

Family getaway

We love Port St. Joe, and aim to stay there every year. The place was exceptional. Very clean, spacious, and easy. We went straight to it with our own access code. The check-out list was the shortest I’ve ever experienced. Many places charge a huge cleaning fee then instruct you to clean before you leave, but not here. Very stress-free… including someone who picked up the trash from outside of the house. The only thing tI would say to improve upon was a few very loose banisters on the deck made a bit of an issue for young children. That being said, I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for having us!

Lovely Beach Experience

Overall, our stay was excellent! We enjoyed the view from the porch as well as the proximity to the beach. The night sky was star-filled; we saw dolphins and pelicans feeding; a pair of bald eagles; and other wildlife. The water was calm and warm. The breeze kept the temperature comfortable on the beach. The house was roomy enough for our group of nine adults with large common areas and a splendid kitchen. The elevator was great for bringing in luggage and groceries. It was a little temperamental however. A few things we would have appreciated--more indoor trash cans, hand soap on our arrival, pot holders, and more dish towels. There were several encounters indoors with insects common to warm climates (palmetto bugs in particular) on the first three floors. None of these inconveniences detracted from our stay. Everyone had a good time and we would come again!

Lovely home & beautiful beach

Just returned from Scallop Pass. We enjoyed our time in there and being together as a family. It is a nice home; and is well decorated. Things we appreciated: very beautiful private beach (not crowded), good seating around table inside and on deck that accommodated our large family, nice cold AC even on top floor, elevator access to all floors, very responsive management that came right out to help fix internet issue, & not far from Port St Joe so a run to the store or workout gym was easy. Having rented beach homes for decades here’s some things that were little concerns: no disposal on kitchen sink (hard to deal with scraping every little scrap when cooking and washing dishes), one fridge with missing shelves (to have a larger capacity home and only one fridge is hard - we bring most of our own meals prepped ahead and storing it all was tough), no stand alone ice maker, only a few cereal/soup bowls, basically the kitchen was lacking if you have a large family and plan on cooking, no curtains on master bedroom sliding door feels awkward at night and room gets bright early, bring all your own beach gear b/c there’s nothing there unless you rent it…. And when you pay that much you don’t want to pay a fortune to rent stuff too, no hose near house to rinse feet (there’s an outdoor shower head but not a foot rinse), no boardwalk to get to beach… you have to walk through hilly sand dune area which was very hard for the older person in our party. We did enjoy our week and love the gulf coast area.
