Close walk to beach! Our family had a great trip! Loved the outdoor area downstairs!

Thank you for the review. Glad the short walk to the beach and the outdoor area downstairs helped make your family trip great. We appreciate the five-star rating and would welcome you back. Have a beachy day!
We absolutely loved the outside pool/party house area. We were outside as much as possible and this house was perfect for that!We liked the location. Property management was wonderful to work with. Would definitely return.
Fantastic location! Well worth it to rent a beach cart, we got ours from st Joe patio and it was well worth it. The downstairs could use a good pressure washing. But with 12 people, we had the best time!

Thank you for your 4-star review. We're glad the location worked so well and that the beach cart made getting to the beach easier. Sorry the downstairs needed pressure washing — we've notified our team and will have that addressed. We're happy your group of 12 had a fantastic time and appreciate the feedback. We hope to host you again.
It was an amazing location with every single thing that we needed at the home provided. The house has games, a great downstairs area screened in, a massive pool, and just being able to be just a few feet from the beach entry point. Honestly, we barely left the house during our stay because everything we needed was right here!

Thank you for your positive review, Monique! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the amenities and convenient beach access at our property. We hope to host you again in the future.
Perfect rental with all the amenities you would need. Beach, pool, outdoor kitchen were the favorites. Golf cart was nice too. Communication with Jerry and Marty was great too. Could not ask for a better rental and a week with family!!!
Great location. Great amenities. The kids and grandkids loved the pool and outdoor and indoor kitchen. The beach was very close and not crowded at all. Enough bathrooms for everyone. Never heard of anyone waiting to use a bathroom all week. The bedroom we stayed in was in a little disrepair. No power on the headboard side of the room. The outlet was hanging out of the wall and did not work. We had some big rainstorms one night, and the floor under the door was wet. I could feel that the subfloor was rotting through when I'd step out the door. All other bedrooms were great! No complaints from any of our kids.Would definitely stay here again.
Amazing stay at Castaway house! We enjoyed this house so much. The location was amazing, it was very well kempt. The pool and deck area were such an added bonus, so no matter rain or shine, we had a blast. The walk to the beech was close. Really cannot say enough great things.

The house is great as far as being close to the beach. The house needs updating pretty bad. It doesn’t look as nice as the pictures online are.
Our family had the best time at our stay here. The pool was great for the kids, the hot tub was fantastic. The short walk to the beach was amazing. The beach was not crowded and the kids was able to play and have the best time.

Thank you for the review. Glad the pool and hot tub were a hit and that the short walk to the uncrowded beach let the kids play and enjoy their time. We appreciate the five-star rating and would welcome you back. Have a beachy day!
This property was perfect for my family. It is located in a less populated area which we prefer. The walk to the beach is easy. The house was modern, clean, and had many nice amenities. The screened in area under the house is great and the pool was icing on the cake. If it just hadn’t poured down rain all week we would have loved our stay.
