We stayed over the weekend and it was absolutely flawlesses with the location & the house itself. There were zero bugs inside (not even any tiny spiders by the door or windows), very cozy furniture, no loose sand or trash anywhere, and generally just an amazing place. Me & my girlfriend would definitely go again if I had the chance :)

This unit was very clean, which was greatly appreciated. The only change I’d make is that the shower head is really high for shorter folks. An extra shower head holder installed a little lower would be nice. Otherwise, the unit was absolutely perfect! We loved the small community of houses. Thank you!!

Clean, updated and walkable to the beach
Excellent place for our beach trip. Owner may want to list that beach towels are on site so renters don’t have to bring their own. Also, a small gate at the back porch stairs would be nice to corral pets/kids if they decide to gather on the back deck for a drink or meal.

Absolutely delightful!
This is our second year staying at this property and I can’t say enough good things. First of all, Tina is amazing. She definitely goes above and beyond to ensure the comfort of her guests. Her communication is quick and she resolves any tiny issue in a snap. The house is extremely clean and has everything a person really needs at the beach. Lots of comfy towels, although for the beach or pool it’s a good idea to bring extras. The beds are very nice and cozy, and the large TVs were great during rainy weather. The beach is a five minute easy walk, and it’s really convenient to have the gas station close. There were rip warnings the entire time we stayed which was a bummer, but having access to the little neighborhood pool allowed us to swim anyway. Great house, great neighborhood, great location, and Tina is fantastic!

Mexico Beach - Bare
Not very much to do or eat. One grocery store, nearest Publix is an hour away in Panama City. Sunsets are Amazinf! No dogs on beach. One patron, possibly an off duty sheriff warned me of dog policy and fines. Internet is very slow to patchy satellite service/signal.
