We had a wonderful week. The house was beautiful, the location was awesome and the pool was amazing especially after a day at the beach. Beds were comfy and furnishings were very nice. Sitting on the decks overlooking the ocean was so relaxing.

Great experience in a beautiful place

Management was top notch throughout the process and very communicative, even during off hours. The property is beautiful and the kids stayed busy all day, every day. The location is good. Far enough away that it's calm and quiet, but close enough to get things when needed. We would stay again.

We loved this beach house and location to the beach. The only downfall for us was being right next to the river entering the gulf. We were hoping for clear blue water some of our stay, but the fact it was storming most days caused the water to not be clear. Overall everything was wonderful! Amazing views, plenty of space, and loved all the decks. There were a few maintenance issues that came up during our stay, and Coastal Joe and the maintenance team worked really hard to resolve them in a quick fashion. The house was overall very clean upon arrival. We did have a black bear visit and knock over the trash can two nights scattering trash all over the yard which is nobody’s fault at all, but maybe something to be aware of. This house is definitely on the pricey side, but extremely nice. I will also say there are a lot of stairs. Someone who is older or disabled may have a difficult time. It wasn’t too bad except when carrying all of our things in and packing up to come home. Again this was something we expected for a large beach house for being directly on the beach. We are highly appreciative of the pet friendly homeowners and beaches!

Love

This was our second time staying at this location and we absolutely love it. Only down side was we were expecting the pool to be heated like the last time we stayed and was informed that the heater and spa part of the pool didn’t work so it wasn’t usable during our stay in October.

Overall it was a good stay. The only downside is the river/ stream that runs into the ocean close the property. Following a heavy rainfall it made the ocean water brown and murky.

Perfect Locatiom

The location of this property is by far the best we’ve experienced along the Florida panhandle. The home is beautiful. The private pool needs a little work, but we still used it and we would definitely stay again!

Wonderful home and location

We brought our some and his friends down for spring break and it was perfect. Oceanfront property listening to the water was amazing and the boys could hang out at the beach and be in view for us not to worry about them. The pool was clean and also another great spot for them to hang out. The house was clean and very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Family Spring Break

The house was maintained and clean and all the furnishings were more than adequate(I'm picky). Walk off the back screened in porch onto the beach or jump into the screened in pool on the front of the house. A good variety of restaurants all within 10-15 minutes and a piggly wiggly in Port St. Joe. Not overcrowded but not in the middle of nowhere, just what we we were looking for in a family vacation.

Would go back again!!

The home was wonderful, so nice to be steps away from the beach. Bedrooms were comfortable, kitchen was well equipped, bathrooms updated. Very nice screened in porch and lower deck to enjoy coffee and meals. The one thing that others noted in reviews held true. It was the pool. It needed a very good cleaning/lots of sand and debris in pool which did not make it inviting. I have a pool myself and am a bit OCD about pools. I paid 300$ extra to have pool heated to what was to be about 90 degrees told to me by Coastal Joes. I dont think it ever got there! It was cold. Also what looks like a spa is not really a spa anymore. But others said that also , guess I should have listened. We did not get use of the pool and I lost 300$. I should have learned by previous reviews. However, Coastal Joe was response when I texted that the back door was broken, they had someone come on Sunday to fix it. All in all, I would def go back for the house itself, location on the beach and privacy, but dont count on the pool.

House was great

We stayed here for the first week of October. The house itself was great for our family of 5 (2 adults, a 6 year old, a 2 year old, and an older large dog). I have no complaints. The beds were very comfortable (I did find a can of bedbug spray under a sink which scared me, but we didn’t have any problems). There was a bunk bed, but I would not recommend for younger children (my 6 year old was afraid to sleep up there). There are a lot of stairs, so I would not recommend for anyone with mobility issues. The pool was awesome, loved that it was screened in. You have your own boardwalk. We loved the remoteness of the property, we rarely saw anyone else on the beach! We saw sharks and dolphins, and found bear tracks in the dunes outside the house. We probably wouldn’t stay here again, but that has nothing to do with the house itself. The water was VERY dark and murky along this stretch of beach — like you cannot see to the bottom even where shallow — and we didn’t feel comfortable swimming in it (we saw other people in it though). The house is really close to a deep creek that flows into the ocean, and we saw several sharks feeding there, so I would not get in this water. It wasn’t a huge issue, because the state park’s blue clear water is a quick drive, but loading 2 sandy kids in a car was a pain for us so we would probably try to stay closer to the park next time.

Family beach trip 2021

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, I would like to say I have stayed here 4 times before without any problems (at 2600.00 a week same time of year). We have enjoyed the house and the private beach. This time it was way different than the past...pool lights did not work inside pool or outside of pool in which was a safety hazard for my children..hot tub never worked...propane can in gas grill was a fire hazard and i had to replace it in order to grill..I called for the first 3 days of my stay to get lights fixed and hot tub working...I finally got someone early the 4th morning to repair lights around pool so we could see at night but still not repaired pool lights and hot tub not working...I paid 4000.00 for the week for this house and it wasnt worth what I paid and the items that where supposed to be working never were and I was told if I wanted the hot tub to be heated that I had to pay 200.00 4000.00 it should be included with a waitress there on hand to serve me drinks...I will come back to this area next year cause me and my family enjoy this area but unless something major changes and get some kind of credit for poor management..We wont be staying here again...
