When booking this rental, I had read the reviews and had a few concerns about some things but when I got there, everything was managed. The picnic table that was by the pool was still splintery, but I put a tablecloth and a few beach towels on the bench and it was perfectly safe for our family and friends. The second review that I had read talked about the palmetto bugs, there were a few, but we are from this area and if you’re living by the water like this house is there will be a few bugs but they don’t hurt you and it doesn’t mean that the facility isn’t clean. They are just water bugs. We had our son’s first birthday party there and the downstairs worked great having shade and tables and having a pool and ithe beach being walking distance. The kitchen was really big with a lot of counter space to keep the food upstairs. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials that you would need. Even the bedrooms had portable fans so you don’t have to bring yours from home. Overall, we will be booking this house again in the future. Thanks again.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a group of 8, aged 5-78. PBH was easy to communicate with and our after hours check-in went smoothly. Overall, we had a good stay at this property. Specifically, it is a good location with a nice pool, great view of the canal and super close to the beach. It is a quiet neighborhood. There is a convenient boardwalk across the street to get you to the beach easily. Property is a little dated, but functional and everything works. A few minor maintenance issues need attention (bath sinks dripping, toilets running or not flushing normally, back fence needs maintenance on right side, floor by back door is uneven/squishy). Be aware that all 3 bedrooms are upstairs on the 3rd floor. Overall, we had a great experience at this home.

The location is perfect. However, we were pretty disappointed with the property’s condition upon arrival. The house was not cleaned thoroughly prior to our arrival and we found a full trashcan in the basement, the grill was so filthy It was not usable, sand on the floors, sand spurs stuck in the carpets, and I even found a used Band-Aid under the dining table. All of the appliances worked, but the cooking utensils need a serious upgrade. Lastly, there were very few linens available for use considering how many people this home accommodates, specifically it needs more bath towels. The property manager responded by removing the trash left in the basement, however, we also requested that the grill be cleaned and a hole in the floor be addressed. Neither of the last two reported concerns were addressed during our visit. It was not the worst experience I’ve ever had, but I am definitely disappointed. In the experience I got for the price we paid.

Need to spray for roaches more often. They came by and sprayed but still they were out and about. Or if you opened a closed door. Also only half the outlets worked. Floor very uneven. If you had a walking issue at all this could be a problem. you could tell this home has been rented alot.

Had a wonderful time on our vacation. The rental was in a perfect location, right by our favorite Place, Peg leg Pete’s. House was in great condition, pool was great. Best part was how close the walk to the Gulf. Highly recommend.

Property not worth the $6K per week. Not clean upon are arrival. Called the property management and they were going to send someone over, no one showed and I ended up cleaning it myself. Very outdated, bunch of mismatched furniture and no dressers (had to live out of our suitcases that we had to place on the floor of the closets. This also included small appliances, had to call property management the first several days of being their to replace a couple small appliances. We had issues with doors being very difficult to close, Repairman came out and did the best he could, but their were still issues and you could see gaps where light was come thru up top. Told me it was time the owners replaced doors. Picnic table was in such bad shape (we could have gotten splinters from it had we used it), asked if we could replace with new one in the garage. Property Management said they would inquire with the owners and get back with us, never heard back. I could go on, but I think you get the point. With all my concerns, I was told the Property Manager would call me Monday morning, never heard from him. We do not have any issues spending money to rent a home for vacation and have never had issues with those homes, but this home was very disappointing. Will not rent again!!!

We had a great stay that could not have been better. The property is in a perfect location with quick and easy access to the Gulf and Sound. The pool was spotless and was a wonderful addition to the property. In addition, the house was supplied with an abundance of outside chairs and picnic tables as well as a grill. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty of bath towels were supplied. The management company Paradise Rentals made the check-in and check-out process was seamless. Overall a great rental property.

The lights in the pool and the outside lights for the pool did not work, we were told the owners were working on it along with the cable upstairs. The balcony railing on the top floor was VERY loose, and the second balcony was loose, we spoke with the rental company and it was fixed promptly but we had our granddaughter with us, could have been bad. Needs repairs. But it was a wonderful location all in all not to bad.

The only bad thing I have to say is, I told the office I had a minor at the property alone with no adult there, and yet they still sent their maintenance men out to deliver a refrigerator. In my opinion that could've waited until I was there or until we checked out! It's not like we got to use the new one! I was not happy at all about the office not listening to me about waiting! I do property management for a living, this was not professional at all! The pictures were old and misleading!

The rental (inside) was a bit run down and in need of TLC but in the right location-right next to the beach. The outdoor amenities were perfect for relaxing and forgetting the real world. Inside needs a makeover and a deep cleaning. Regardless, we are willing to come next year and make more memories!

Location was perfect for bringing your boat and close walk to the beach all in one rental! Bathroom need to be updated (door needs to have a lock and grout looks moldy). Some simple update/maintenance would go a long way especially considering the price and comparing to other paradise beach rentals we have previously stayed at. The pull out sofa was also broken. Overall, the place is a decent rental and it’s location, boat slip and pool were a plus!!

Location. Location, Location!!!!!
Amazing location, only rental on the cove! Short walk to beach or bay. Close to Peg Leg Pete's, and a free trolley stop. Pool is refreshing, no handrail for older people to get in safely. Everyone has different levels of comfort and we were there for the beach, so it was amazing. We got to see dolphins and find sand dollars. It could have been cleaner, the beds could have been newer and more comfortable but this did not deter from our vacation!!! Thank you for sharing your home!!

Rented for 2 months. Nice location, easy and quick access to both the beach and the sound. It was fun to watch the fisherman, birds, and dolphins out back in the canal. House is comfortable with plenty of kitchen dishes and cooking pans, etc. needed to make meals at home including a gas grill. Decor is a little dated, bathrooms could be updated. Overall we had a nice couple months here, we had a few minor issues but the management company was quick to deal with them.

Our families gathered together at this lovely spot at the end of the lagoon. It had a lovely view, great neighbors and a very short walk to the beach. We had plenty of room and the location was very convenient to everything. The ONLY thing missing would have been blankets on the beds during the winter months.

The house was perfect for our stay. It is a 1min walk to the most perfect beach. The views from the back deck of the pool and waterfront was great for an evening cocktail. We even caught some speckled trout right out back. The house was clean and spacious. It is a 3 min walk to peg leg petes restaurant which had amazing seafood and ice cold beers. We had a wonderful time would recommend to any group looking to enjoy Pensacola.

The house was in a great location. The layout was perfect. My only real complaint was the pool filter didn't seem to be working properly. I asked if the property had a vacuum for the pool so we could try to clean it a bit. I was told a pool guy came twice a week, but we never saw anyone. We still swam, but it was just a bit murky. We would still stay here again!

This property was exactly as described, and had been thoroughly cleaned. We had a wonderful vacation and will surely return to Pensacola. The only recommendations I have would be to replace the carpet, as it was not in the best condition, and improve air flow in two of the bedrooms upstairs. Loved the location. Paradise Beach Homes personnel very friendly and most helpful.

Overall the house was great. As per some of the comments from other guests online, property could use some updates to match the price point of the rental, but the location was wonderful. Though a little dated, everything worked minus the wifi, and cable downstairs. We were able to access the WIFI , but it was at such a low rate, it was completely unusable. Again, not huge issue since we were on the beach, but it needs to be either removed from advertisement or fixed.
Only other comment would be one of the bunks was pretty shaky. Might need to be screwed together a little more.
To me, these are VERY minor comments, on a wonderful stay.
