Our stay was great! The home was beautiful and very accommodating for our group of 4 families! If I had any suggestions it would be the pool area- the tile on the back porch gets very slippery and there is no ladder for the steps.

Dying to Stay Again!
Our overall stay was amazing. We did experience a challenge but Emerald Coast resolved as promptly within their control. Only one block from the beach and two blocks from Gulf Place, this was an ideal quiet location.

Great house, pool and 2 min walk to beach!
Our family absolutely loved this home and location! You can’t beat the 2 minute walk to the beach (without having to cross 30A) with a large public beach access at the Spooky lane walk over. Gulf Place with great restaurants and shops that are within walking distance too! We loved getting ice cream at Pecan Jacks after eating at Shunk Gulley. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The house is nicely updated, clean, well maintained and the kitchen is fully stocked. The living/dining/kitchen were very spacious for a large group. The master bedroom and bathroom were huge! There are also so many outdoor areas on the 2 balconies and patio for us to hang out. The private pool area is a huge plus. We had a lot of fun hanging out in the backyard swimming, playing corn hole and grilling. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and responsive. Overall, great stay! We will be back!
