Great location and property

The newly renovated house is great. It's in a key spot across from beach, has a pool and a game room. We had horrible weather so didn't get to enjoy all the fun this great location would offer but a great stay, nonetheless.

Excellent House

Paradise to Me has plenty of room for multiple families. The house is right across the street to the ramp for the beach. The pool is an added value and we used it everyday after a long day on the beach. We will be staying here again

Paradise To Me

Our family loved staying here. The beach access was fantastic. The house backing up to the golf course was so peaceful. The inside of the house was very clean and recently updated and equipped for our large family. The Gulf Place community was nearby for food. We will be back!

It was paradise to me

I have been to numerous vacation locations for over 50 years and I can say this was the most enjoyable time I have spent. Santa Rosa Beach is a tranquil place situated between the very busy Destin and Panama City. We enjoyed both places for dining and entertainment but we relaxed in Santa Rosa by our pool or by the beach , a 2 minute walk. For a family get together this place can't be beat. There is plenty of room and it has arcade games for the kids in the game room.10 minutes to the outlet mall and only 5 minutes to the grocery store.. local dining is only a 5 minute walk as well. A drive down scenic 30A brings you to the town of Seaside for extra shopping and dining. We have already booked it for next year.

5 Stars

The bottom bunk bed sheets had sand in them when my granddaughter pulled back the sheets to go to bed. Another bed in the room had a sucker stick with dust bunnies on it under the bed. The upstairs bedroom with the queen size bed in it wasn't vacuumed, and there was a bug under the chair in the large master bedroom on the second floor. Also the handle fell off the wall in the shower in the large master bathroom, which my husband reattached with the Allen wrench found in the closet of the game room. Otherwise, the place was beautiful and we would probably rent it again. Great access to the beach and area attractions.

What a great family vacay!

What a lovely house with the perfect location to the beach and close to restaurants but away from the craziness! We had such a great family vacation and can't say enough positive things about this property, it was a great set up for family and kids and having our own pool was an added bonus. So close to the beach!

Would stay again!

Paradise to Me was beautiful and clean. Had an easy walk to the beach access across the street and in a great location! Plenty of towels and kitchen ware and comfortable beds and pillows. The pool was nice to cool off in and the game room was a bonus! Communications with Diamond Gulf Rentals was pleasant, quick and easy. We had a great stay and would definitely rent this home and from this company again!

The best week! We loved staying in this home

We had the best week here in this home. You cannot beat this location. Directly across the street from the beach, it was great. The beach was beautiful and not too crowded. We had 2 large families staying together in the home and it was perfect. Kids loved the game room. All beds & couches were comfy. The pool was smaller than excepted but we still got use out of it! Right down the street from the town. We enjoyed morning runs, walking to dinner and shops, exploring, etc. rental company was helpful, kind and responsive. We love Santa Rosa and can’t wait to come back!!

It was Paradise to Us

Paradise To Me exceeded my expectations. We had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked. The game room was a bonus. BUT the best thing of all was the short walk to the beach. We all loved the pool when we got too hot at the beach. Many precious memories were made. It's a wonderful place to stay!

Paradise Perfect

We thoroughly enjoyed our family vacation at Paradise To Me, 5 adults and 5 children. The house is spacious, providing beds and privacy for all. The kids loved the game room and pool. They enjoyed the kids' bedroom, sharing a room with their cousins. The adults enjoyed the pool area and grill. The front and back balconies were perfect for conversation and cocktails with either a golf course view or peekaboo gulf view, in front. The two bikes were an excellent addition. We explored the area and got some exercise. The beach is across the street, allowing easy carrying of essentials and a short walk back for bathroom facilities and additional food/drink. We spent several long days at the beach. We were thankful for the pool though. There were several days double red flags were flying at the beach, prohibiting us from swimming in the gulf. The younger kids really preferred the pool. We had a lovely evening at the Tuesday night fireworks at The Village of Baytowne Wharf. There are many kids activities, including bungie jumping, ziplining and a carousel for the little ones. We dined at Slick Lips, which was good and offered seafood, steaks and kid options. Several in our group went parasailing one afternoon. They had a great experience. The management of Diamond Gulf Rentals were friendly and accommodating. They responded to any questions through texts in a very timely fashion. We would highly recommend Paradise To Me for the location, amenities and space.

Perfect vacation home for a large family. So close, and easy access to the beach. So great to have the pool. When not at a beach, we were in the pool. The staff we worked with were very pleasant and helpful. The house was very spacious, clean and comfortable. We would definitely go back again!

The beach is across the street and we loved that it wasn't crowded. The private pool was great for our family as well. We hope to visit again :)
