Gulf View, Ground Floor TH on West End of Mexico Beach ~ Set Sail at 5
Set Sail at 5 is located on South 38th Street, 200 yards to the beach with no roads to cross. It is a ground level townhome with the open living space with living room, dining area, kitchen and half bath on the bottom floor and the 2 bedrooms are located on the second floor. Beyond the kitchen door, you’ll find a fenced patio with outdoor dining even complete with a ceiling fan hanging from the pergola to help move the afternoon air around. On the 2nd floor, both bedrooms have their own private deck each with its own gulf view. The deck off of Bedroom 1 is a little smaller with a minimal gulf view, but the deck to the rear of the townhouse off of Bedroom 2 is a larger sundeck with furniture and more visible gulf views. Both bedrooms have their own TV’s and full bath.
If you’re traveling in a larger group and need more space, Set Sail at .7 is 2 doors down and is a 3-bedroom townhouse. Both are owned by the same person and are very comparable in quality and décor.
Like to stay active on your beach vacation? Here are just a few of the outdoor activities in beautiful Mexico Beach. Something for everyone to enjoy: swim in the warm turquoise waters of the Gulf or Mexico, collect sea shells (excellent shelling at Crooked Island, less than 1.7 miles west on HWY 98!), take a boat ride (a boat ramp is less than a tenth of a mile away from Set Sail 5), fish for the big one, go diving, kayaking, surfing, take in an eco-tour. Relax on the beautiful sugar white sands only a few steps away from Set Sail at 5 with a cool drink, a good book and an umbrella.
Mexico Beach is a nature lover’s paradise. Many bird species can be found in Mexico Beach. Look around and you'll probably see osprey, bald eagles, pelicans, herons and egrets. At least five species of sea turtles can be found in our area. Loggerhead turtle hatchlings come out in the late summer. Try to spot dolphins as they dive through the waves all year long. Sea turtles, urchins, starfish, crabs, and sand dollars are abundant here as well. If you are looking for that perfect souvenir, a unique piece of artwork to remind you of your fantastic vacation in Mexico Beach, come explore the eclectic collection of locally owned shops and boutiques of Mexico Beach and nearby Port St. Joe and Apalachicola. Also, St. Joseph Bay Golf Club, just to the east of Port St. Joe, offers 18 holes of challenging play.

Perfect low key getaway
Mexico beach is rebuilding nicely and recovering from Michael. This is the perfect place for those that want to be away from people and have a relaxing vacation.

Condo nice. Area still under construction and not dog friendly.
Lots of construction going on as they recover from the hurricane. No dogs allowed on Mexico Beach and no good place to walk dogs. Wish the property managers had let us know since we had requested a dog friendly place. We learned of a small dog park in Veterans park by talking to a local. Its @ 5 miles away and not found in a Google search. We spent too much time driving to places to walk our dog!

Basic items missing
Kitchen items are very limited. For example no hot pads to remove items from the oven.
No sheets for the pullout bed.
Not enough bath towels.
Might want to consider adding a grill for the back patio…which is great!
