Our family of 12 had a wonderful time on our spring break getaway. House was great, well located, and fit our needs perfectly. Kids really enjoyed the pool. Definitely would recommend for others considering a nice relaxing place to stay.
House was awesome. Beautifully built with smart use of space. Plenty of room. Host was friendly & responsive. Loved having coffee on the deck in the morning and watching the sunsets in the evening. Only complaint—beds in primary bedrooms were terribly uncomfortable. It’s time to invest in new mattresses.
We had a great time with our family, enjoy the house at the beach and all the amenities that it offer. The host was attentive to our needs or questions. Highly recommended!
We had an amazing time at the Fish Carlton, the house was big enough for 10 adults and 3 littles! There are even two refrigerators in the house with plenty of room for large groups! The pool and deck was awesome and right on the beach 10/10 we will definitely be back !
My friends and I had an amazing stay in this house! It wasn’t ever too cramped and the two refrigerators really helped with food storage. Having the pool/hot tub so close to the beach was so nice. Would definitely recommend!
It was so great to walk right onto the beach from the porch. The beds downstairs were like sleeping on boxsprings. A few things that were broke but the management Kelly was so kind and very prompt on getting them fixed. Loved the location. Was very easy to get to.
This was by far the best vacation home we have stayed in! The host was amazing, and was very quick to respond to any questions that we had. The location was perfect, within walking distance to restaurants. Having the pool and hot tub were definitely a huge hit with the whole family. The house was also perfectly laid out and fully equipped to make for a stress free vacation. We will definitely be returning in the future to make more lasting memories!!
The house was perfect for my family. it was spacious and had everything we needed. the pool, hot tub, and being directly on the beach was GREAT! We will definitely be back! Thank you
What a great beach home! And in a great location, too. Had a great time during our last chance to get some sun and warm weather before the cooler months set in. The kids had a blast! The ease of getting around and walking distance to food, parks, and shops really sealed it.
We loved the convenience and location. Beaches weren't overly full.
Every time we contacted host, they were prompt and very polite.
The house could have been cleaner, but it wasnt enough to ruin our sray.
We got this house for a big family vaca with all of our kids had grand babies and it did not disappoint. The size of the house was perfect, everyone had plenty of space. We bounced between the beach and the pool all day and played cards games at the large kitchen table at night. We definitely plan on returning every two years. We made such amazing family memories that we all will cherish forever.
This house was perfect for our family. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The wonderful amenities, like the pool and hot tub, added to this property. Being right on the beach was so nice! The management was very quick to reply to some questions we had. We very much would like to return again soon! All four families were extremely happy with everything offered.
Beautiful, convenient location. Being able to walk directly to the beach was so nice. Also, it was so convenient for the older children to go back and forth between the adults on the beach and the adults at the pool. The house's lay-out was perfect. My only recommendation is to invest in new mattresses. We hope to stay at the Fish Carlton again.
Everything about this house was FABULOUS! It was well stocked with the necessities for the week. The pool and hot tub were great! It was clean! Plenty of room! We had an amazing week here! Thanks for sharing your home with us! We will be back!
We had a lovely week. The beach was beautiful and just steps away. The house was exactly as described. We had a small maintenance issue and the maintenance men arrived in an hour and fixed it. The owner responded quickly to a question I had. The location was good - the beach was not too crowded, and there was a Publix 5 minutes away.
This was an amazing vacation rental for my family. We normally each rent condos on the beach, but for this trip, we decided to rent a beach house for all of the family. This was such an amazing trip. The house had everything we could ever ask for and we definitely wouldn’t rent again. Five stars! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was the first time we chose a place in northern Florida. I think we should have probably waited another month or so for better weather. It was very cold, in the 40 degree range and made it harder to enjoy the property. The last couple days were in the 60's so it was more enjoyable. The property itself was nice and overall we had a good time.
AWESOME!!
This house was absolutely perfect..beautiful location w/easy access to the beach. The convenience of the pool/hot tub on the deck was perfect. Beautiful sunsets! We used Chairs2U and Scott (the owner) was excellent..our beach chairs were set up early every day, and we had an amazing bonfire w/music, s’mores and the most beautiful set up. The house is so comfortable with plenty of space for everyone, also has great kitchen. We had NO problems, perfect weather, and beautiful water. We have been vacationing in this area for years and this is one of the best homes we’ve stayed in. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space😍!

Annual framily trip
The location and views were amazing. However, the check-in process could have been more clear. I was never informed that I would receive an email from someone other than VRBO. Then in that email you have to download a different app to sign a rental agreement to get a code for the door. All but 2 beds had sand in them and clearly were not cleaned. We were told NOT to strip the beds because it was easier for housekeeping. We now know why. The hot tub would not keep temperature and you could only use one set of jets or it sprayed out of a knob that was caulked closed. The pillows were so flat and absolutely horrible. Its a really nice house but definitely has some minor issues.
We had 4 families during our stay with all age ranges! It was perfect for our large family. We loved the pool/hot tub and the beach being just steps away. The kitchen was fully stocked and had 2 refrigerators, which is nice when you are cooking for a crowd. All of the beds were comfortable except for the twin trundle bed in one of the bunk rooms(it was almost like a box spring not a mattress). Overall cleanliness was really good. There were a few minor things like air vents/returns that need to be cleaned. Pool towels were provided, which was a bonus! Things we brought/bought: hand soap and toilet paper for bathrooms, dish soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, foil, baggies, seran wrap, and containers with lids for left overs.
There were several restaurants and shops within walking distance. The Pier is a 15 min drive away (lots of shops/restaurants/things to do). Walmart is 10-12 mins away, Publix is 4 mins. If you have never had Parlor donuts, they are a must try!
If the family decides to stay in PCB again we will most definitely rent this house again! The host answered all of my questions ahead of time and communicated well. We had an amazing time and were able to spend a lot of quality time together as a family!
