The small beach town of Mexico Beach is known for its excellent fishing, laid-back lifestyle, beautiful white sandy beaches, and emerald green waters. Located just a few short blocks from the beach you can jump on the golf cart, take a stroll, or drive to the Gulf of Mexico where miles of sugary white sand and sparkling water awaits you. For the fishing enthusiast, the public boat ramp is just a few miles away, and don't forget there is parking for your boat.
Visit nearby Port St. Joe for shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment. Downtown offers cute shops and restaurants along Reid Avenue. Don't forget to check out the historical Lighthouse and Sea Turtle Museum. We love our sea turtles!
So when you are ready to slow down and enjoy a break from life's demands, come visit us and stay in the "Sand Dollar". You'll make memories of a lifetime!

When you are ready to hit the beach you will find miles and miles of natural beauty for you to explore. Grab a pole and go shore fishing, stroll on the beach looking for shells, splash in the refreshing salt water, relax and soak up some rays, there is something for everyone.

Area construction disclaimer: Our beautiful area has been under reconstruction since Hurricane Michael in 2018. We have come a long way since then, but there is still a considerable amount of new construction going on in the area. While we strive to give you an accurate representation in our photos, we cannot guarantee that new construction near your rental hasn't begun since our photos were taken.

Can’t wait to come back!

This property was amazing! Definitely exceeded all expectations! Communication was excellent all questions were answered promptly. House was very roomy and nicely decorated. The beds were very comfy and they provided a lot of extra linens and towels. House was very clean! The backyard and pool was where we spent most of our time! Exceptional! Pool was clean and cold. Pool service came on Tuesday and Friday. The pool was my favorite part of the house! It was a good walk to the beach so we opted to drive which works out perfectly because the beach accesses were close. 10/10! Will definitely be back!

Relaxing Vacation

The house was clean, bed was comfortable and it felt like home. We enjoyed the privacy of the pool and the location is very close to the beach. The fenced in backyard was good for our small dog.

Annual 4th of July Family Beach Trip

We loved staying at the Sandollar! I love the aground level, open floor plan, pool area, and especially having the enclosed fenced in backyard for our 2 pups! The only complaint we have is the side and across the street neighbors were a little rude, when we had a few local visitors that “parked on their grass” but other than that we loved our stay and may stay at this property again in the future!

The pool!

The home was great for our family. It had everything we needed for our stay. It felt like a home away from home. Ofcourse the pool was the main pull to choose this home, and it did not disappoint. We were thankful for it and enjoyed our stay very much.

Great Stay

We had a wonderful time at the Sand Dollar. House was clean, kitchen well equipped. We loved relaxing in the pool after a long day at the beach. Fantastic back yard that my pup loved. The house isn't walking distance to the beach, but we were well aware of that prior to booking, but the golf cart available is an amazing advantage. The only complaint, which really isn't a complaint against the property, were the beds were more firm than we like. If you prefer a softer sleep, I'd suggest a mattress topper.

Our stay was wonderful. We relaxed in the pool and grilled. Then more pool time we carted around neighborhoods and loved carting toward beach sitting there watching the sun on the water. House is beautiful and perfectly stocked. Thank you

Overall very pleased

We really enjoyed the Sand Dollar. Was very clean house and yard and pool very nice and clean. A couple of issues we had were the very , very hard to open and close sliding glass doors in master bedroom. Also the AC couldn’t cool the master bedroom as it should and made for warm nights sleep. Overall house could be cooler. Also we understood we could park boat under shed but not the case.
