Amazing

From the minute we arrived to the minute we left there was nothing we needed. The house is beautifully decorated and slept my family perfect. House was fully stocked with all of our beach needs as well. I did not even use my own beach towels I had brought. Look forward to making memories next year!

Great location with plenty of space

This was the first time I stayed in a place not directly on the beach. However, the walk is so short it felt as though we were directly on the beach. We had an amazing time. We enjoyed the coffee shop and Mango Marleys were all an easy walk to enjoy. The home was clean and had planet of room. We really enjoyed the balconies. I plan to come back and stay here again. It was a very relaxing stay for us all.

Wonderful Get-away!!

We really enjoyed out stay! The only issue we had was keeping the littles off the stairs. LOL But it was great, no issues and would recommend it highly for a family or friends to enjoy.

All you need and more!

Our family of four stayed late July and loved the space, location and amenities! We could have comfortably added another family in the home. All the kitchen supplies and beach supplies you need and more. We made use of the paddle board, fishing supplies and beach wagon. Loved the location on the canal - we saw four manatees right off the private dock! Only saw them one afternoon, so not sure if it was a rare occurrence but it was amazing. Very easy, short walk to the beach, thanks to the provided wagon. The water quality was excellent and the same as the rest of Mexico Beach (was initially worried about being close to the canal outlet). Would definitely stay here again! Kristin was amazing at communicating. Walked to Shell Shack for fresh fish, walked to coffee shop, Crazy Beach Pizza, Marina and the adorable shops. Location was PERFECTION! Pool was clean and comfortable. Mexico Beach is a gem of a town and we can't wait to return!
