About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Only steps from the beach

The home is located in Mexico Beach Fla aka the forgotten coast. Five miles of sandy beach this unique community offers great fishing, over 300 undersea reefs, restaurants and a Million-dollar view. The strip along Highway 98 will also take you to Port St. Joe and Cape San Blas. After a devasting hurricane in 2018 the owner wanted no more than to help revitalize the area and share his little piece of paradise that he loves so much with you and your family. We hope you will love it too.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.

House was very comfortable for our family of 6. The large dining table was awesome for our afternoon game time. The view from the living room while having our morning coffee was lovely. Beds were very comfortable. Walk to the beach is easy. The taco truck at 27th St. was fabulous, go try them out.

Never want to leave!

Loved this home. Much larger and nicer than pictures show. Huge open living/dining/kitchen area. Well appointed. Very clean. Nice bedrooms with good closet space. The view is amazing! So close to the beautiful white sand of Mexico Beach. Sunsets are gorgeous. We didn’t wanna leave on our last day and were able to add another day on at the last minute easily with the help of the host. Can’t wait to return.

Family vacation

Property is as described. Updated appliances and furnishings. Very clean. We had a small challenge left by previous guest that was quickly addressed by Jackie. Location is amazing. Boardwalk to beach directly across street. From door to oceanfront seat on beach is about 60 yards. Definitely hope to return for another stay in the future. Highly recommend.

Week of relaxation

This home is nicely situated on the corner of 98 and 6th across from a crossover. 20 minute drive to Callaway Walmart, 45 minutes to the state park on Cape San Blas. The home was clean. The beds were situated with the queen in the master and the king in another room which we found annoying but still slept well. The front windows were awesome but left privacy while sitting in the living room out the window (pun intended). Overall, we will look for this property again next time we go to our favorite little town.
