Paws in the Sand is in my favorite neighborhood in PCB (Bid-a-wee). It offers excellent beach access but also a quiet friendly neighborhood great for families and pets. The pool with a landing was a great addition for our toddler. I really enjoyed the master suite and the beds were comfortable. There was not any starter toilet paper so be sure to bring your own. The office staff were pleasant and responsive during our stay. It comfortable fit my family and 4, my parents, and their dog. Highly recommend!

Quiet, peaceful, safe stay.

This property was very adequate, clean, secure, and wonderfully located at Bidawee. The house, patio, and yard were very nice and useful. I particularly enjoyed the grill. The check-in process was smooth and all entrances were secure and easily workable. I would definitely recommend this little house and will certainly try to return.

Wonderful Place!!

The house was super clean and had everything we needed for the family! Location to the beach was perfect. It’s a short walk or golf cart ride away. Backyard was plenty big enough for our doggie to run and play. There is an outdoor shower to rinse off all the sand too! Overall great experience 👍

Great location

The location is near everything you could want for a beach stay. Beaches are amazing and you get a code for the private neighborhood beach. Some nice restaurants in the area. Cute cottage, decorated nicely. Can’t wait to see the eventual upgrades to the yard and hope we can come back sometime. The management was wonderful and responsive if you had a need.

Perfect spot in Bidawee

We had a wedding to attend in PCB and have family that lives in this neighborhood so it was a perfect fit for us (pet friendly a plus!). Great Florida room at the entry (also great for pets to lounge with you in!). Could not have asked for a better spot and place for our needs. Gracie who I spoke with at the office was also very friendly! Would definitely return.

Review

The home was nice and comfortable; an older property that has some updating done but still needs some more. The location is good, easy walk to the beach and not surrounded by condos, but still close enough to everything we needed. Our quarrels would be the lack of kitchen essentials, items as simple as a toaster or frying pan were not provided. Minimal cleaning supplies were included as well.
