Very relaxing and enjoyable

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Calypso. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to book again for next winter and we are increasing the amount of time that we stay. It’s in a great location, plenty of restaurants, movie theater stores, and more the fish pier is directly next-door. I really enjoyed fishing off the pier, the gentleman that take care of the lounge chairs on the beach, had them all lined up and ready to roll when you wanted to go to the beach, the security in the parking garage and throughout the premises, checking to see if folks were actually guessed of Calypso made us feel very safe. The groundsmen that takes care of the place keeps everything immaculate and is always very friendly to say good morning or just a simple hello I would highly recommend Calypso resort to anyone looking to have a wonderful relaxing vacation or for snowbirds looking to go south for the winter.

Easy family beach trip!

We had a wonderful and relaxing time during our stay at the Calypso. Our room was just as John said it would be: clean, spacious, and equipped with all luxuries that your home would offer. The resort and surrounding area was very easy to navigate. Such a convenient location with many restaurants, shops, and Pier Park nearby. John was incredible to work with. He made sure we had all necessary information and even checked in with us during our stay. A fabulous family beach trip!

Meet John and Linda Hughes

Recently settled in Georgetown, KY after spending over 30 years in Columbus, Indiana, we have been happily married for 37 years and are the proud parents of three grown children (including two Eagle Scouts and a former college soccer player!). Both born and raised in the Cincinnati, Ohio area, we are proud alumni of Northern Kentucky University, the University of Kentucky, and Xavier University.

After retiring from a rewarding career as an Account Executive at Cummins Inc., John now personally manages our two premier Gulf-front condos (903W and 1803E) and actively serves on the Calypso Resort COA. Linda brings her professional background in Accounting and Human Resources Management to ensure our vacation rentals run seamlessly.

Family and hospitality are at the heart of everything we do. As meticulous, hands-on owners, we love helping other families create unforgettable beachfront memories at Calypso Resort!

Here is what sets our Calypso retreat apart:

Immaculately Maintained: We personally oversee every detail. From regular deep cleanings to fresh paint, we ensure all appliances, furnishings, and amenities are in pristine working order. You will never walk into a unit that feels worn down or neglected.

Thoughtfully Equipped: We provide more than just the basics. From high-quality linens and a fully stocked kitchen to smart TVs and a hotel-style safe for your valuables, we have anticipated your every need so you can relax from the moment you step inside.

Direct, Responsive Communication: Forget dealing with a faceless property management company or a delayed call center. When you rent from us, you deal directly with the owners. We are quick to respond, highly invested, and dedicated to making your stay seamless and stress-free.

Proactive Updates: We don't wait for things to break; we constantly upgrade our unit with fresh furnishings and modern touches to ensure an exceptional experience for our returning guests year after year.

We welcome you to experience the meticulous difference—book your stay today and see why so many families return to us season after season!
