Better than we could have imagined!!!

We came to town to check on my mom and decided to stay here! Loved that it was a gated community and super-easy to get to! The place was super cute and cozy! The king size bed was the 2nd best bed I have EVER slept on (the 1st being my bed at home)! We really enjoyed the screened in porches! Communication was AMAZING!!! The entire experience was FANTASTIC!!!! You should absolutely stay here!!!

Great Getaway In PSJ

This is a relatively new condo development and is just next door to Port St Joe. It's a perfect location because you're not in the middle of everything yet minutes away. The condo has a spacious downstairs living/kitchen/dining area and nice sized bedrooms. Unit was clean and cool upon check in. Enjoyed the covered/screened patio areas. A great getaway location.

Review Port St. Joe

Easy in and out . Nicely decorated, well-furnished, including large washer and dryer. Great location between Mexico Beach and Port St Joe, with easy access to beaches. You can’t beat this location for easy access to such amazing state parks and restaurants. Both bedrooms are upstairs, and each has private full bath. Master has softer queen mattress, walk-in shower, and nice screened-in porch with swing and refrigerator; other bedroom has /full bed with firmer mattress, and bathtub/shower combo. Hosts very easy to communicate with. Would definitely return.

Perfect little getaway spot. Literally a 2 minute drive to beach. Great pools on site. The cottage has pretty much everything you need. Right by the gated entrance, yet quiet and safe. A short drive to shops, stores, restaurants in “downtown” Port St. Joe. Just beware there are steep steps to get to the bedrooms. But all in all, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we ever find ourselves in the area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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 recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family enjoying staying at this location. The master bedroom bed was amazing! The kitchen was well-stocked. The convenience of location was perfect. The only downfall was you can’t easily walk to the beach, but there are numerous beaches easily accessible if you drive a little bit. Thanks so much for providing such a great experience for our family. The host is very responsive.
