We had the best vacation in years,the grandkids had a ball.The beach was great the water clear.Just hopeing the Beachhouse didnt receive any damage during the huricane,which hit the week after after we left.

The House was the perfect size for 6 females just wanting to beach and relax. Nicely stocked too. Pat and Vic were wonderful to deal with.

We have stayed at several different homes on the beach over the years. This was absolutely the best spot ever! Don't bother to pack anything but your clothes as the owners provide everything you need for a week at the beach. Nothing seems to have been overlooked to make our stay comfortable. Three of the bedrooms have amazing views (the owner even provided binoculars). I was slightly concerned about the fourth bedroom as it sits behind the garage on the lowest level of the house but the kids loved their own cave-that is, when we could get them off the beach. (Every beach toy imaginable must be in their garage.) The house is very clean, the beds are soft, the decor is pleasing, the kitchen has what seems to be almost new fixtures with every type of utensil possible. The TV has multiple cable channels, there are movies, books, and games available for evenings or when it rains. We only had one morning of rain and only waited until the lighting passed before we were walking on the beach. Also, the interior of the house is very quite. You don't hear other people in the house moving about or talking between rooms. The beach side patios are wonderful for sitting and watching the waves. We had morning coffee and lunches on them everyday. The only thing we needed was groceries and there were two markets just across the street from the resort. We also did a run to a fresh fish market just down the road and grilled out one evening. Carillion is close enough for dinner trips to Panama City ,Seaside and other beach towns- for the food, prices and view the best place we tried was Schooners. The house is inside a perfectly groomed resort and one of the pools is just two houses away. The resort is gated, feels very secure, and the streets are perfect for early walks. A huge pond is across the street from the house and the sound of what must be hundreds of frogs at night is a treat. The beach in front of the house is private for the resort community. It almost felt like we had our own strip of beach reserved most of the week. The owners deserve a 5 star rating as they did everything they could possibly do to make our stay perfect. Pat called to check on us to be sure we were happy and had everything we needed. It was very hard to leave. It almost felt like this was our house too! Thank you so much for such a wonderful family vacation home experience.

We had such an amazing stay! We loved being right on the beach!

The Beach House in Carillon is a great beach property with unparalleled views of the Gulf. The owner not only maintains the home wonderfully, but you won’t find a better stocked home with beach chairs, towels, toys, etc. and the kitchen was fully stocked with all of the necessities you will need. This is truly a beach gem you won’t regret renting!

We had a wonderful time at The Beach House. We had two young kids with us and the house had everything they needed. The views are unbelievable. Vic and Pat made everything so easy. We didn't even leave the house until the last minute. Having the lounge chairs on the beach was perfect. My husband told me not to give a good review so we could still get in this wonderful place. We are afraid it will be booked up. The owners gave us all kinds of information from restaurants, golf courses and things to do during our visit. If we needed anything we had numbers to call. I can't say enough good things about this wonderful house.

The home itself was immaculate and very comfortable and right on the beach. Carillon beach was right inbetween Panama City and Rosemary and seaside beach areas and so there were plenty of things for everybody. Pat contacted us before the trip with quick answers to our questions and was thoughtful and accommodating. The family notes (sent beforehand) were very helpful and information in the house made everything easy to use and find and operate without worry. The beach is beautiful and the property had a very nice heated pool and fitness center and shops too. We look forward to coming back. Thanks so much

The location was perfect - right on the beach, in a gated community, two doors down from one of the larger pool areas. The house was spotless. The kitchen was well appointed, the beds were comfortable, the deck was great. Pat was great to work with and communicated frequently. We’ve stayed along the panhandle for over 20 years. You can’t go wrong with this house. It was truly a joy to stay here.

We loved the house and the view. Kitchen well-stocked. Very comfortable, you can tell a lot of wonderful memories were made in the house. Owners called to check on us twice and mailed us a precious, left-behind baby blanket. We can't wait to return next year, perhaps twice!

Just returned from another week stay at The Beach House, our second time staying in Pat and Vic's beautiful beachfront home, and our 13th year in a row staying at Carillon! The perfect Gulf location. Everything was as we remembered it from last year. Comfortable, spotless, and all well appointed and in its place. Even with workmen with their nail guns, saws, and banging hammers 10 feet away Monday thru Friday 7am-5pm building the house next door......we managed to (mentally) block out their noise and enjoy our time with family on the beach. Pat wanted so badly to make the building commotion disappear but we both knew...."houses have to get built, whadda you gonna do...?" Can't wait until we go back back next year! Such a beautiful location. And ask Pat for the name of the personal shopper who will have the fridge stocked with whatever you need from Publix + makes the best pecan and coconut cream pies around...all waiting when you arrive for a VERY reasonable charge.

We just returned from staying a week at this house. Through the many beach vacations over the course of nearly forty-five years of marriage, we have loved staying in many houses, but this house is so lovingly decorated that we felt immediately like we were at home. The many personal touches throughout the house made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. We were there with our children and four grandchildren, ranging from 2 1/2 to 12 and none of them wanted to leave. Everything is designed for families who want to be together without having to pack a lot of beach and swim toys. The close proximity of the gulf-front pool and the beach make a very delightful combination. The house was very clean, thanks to the wonderful housekeeper. We made many family memories and will treasure this vacation as one of the best. Thanks so much for allowing us to be at home in your beach house!

Our family had "the perfect" FAMILY vacation in Carillon Beach. The weather could not have been better and the accommendations exceeded our expectations. The pictures do not due it justice. Each bedrooms is "ensuite" which offers privacy and comfort for the everyone in the group. The location on this sandy white beach is perfect for dolphin viewing (and we saw quite a few swim by) and relaxing with morning coffee. The home is well equipped with every need and them some. Pack light and head to "the Beach House". My 4 year old grandson and 7 year old granddaughter were able to play on the sand directly outside our deck while we sat comfortably and watched. The gated community is safe from passing cars which offers additional peace of mind. Pack a few swim suits and have a wonderful trip.

We had an outstanding stay at Pat and Vic's beautiful home for Fall Break with our 4 young children. This home could not be any better placed on this beautiful beach, and wonderful community. The home was wonderfully decorated, very well equipped for our large family, with everything you could possibly need. Bring some clothes and you really are good to go here! The master bedroom has a beautiful view of the ocean from the bed. I actually looked out of the window one night to see a falling star while laying in bed!! The patio overlooking the beach was large, and close enough that we could trust our 5 and 7 year old's to run around in the sand a bit while we could watch and shout to them from the table while finishing dinner! The patio sound system was great to listen to some Bob Marley while getting some shade for a break in the day. We even got to see a protected sea turtle nest "rescued" and baby sea turtles right in front of the house! There is a beach side pool just one house down, and 2 others ( one heated) in the gated community. The heated one is a short walk away that has a great basketball, tennis, and playground area for the kids. I selfishly debated sharing the reviews of this place, knowing that it could lead to it being even more difficult to arrange rental, but they deserve the business! We will be back!

What a wonderful place we found this fall at Carillon. From the first initial email to the last the owners always answered and we were given great information. We LOVED this beach house. 3 Couples shared without a problem and a 4th could have come along with the lower level being utilized. This home is beautifully equipped and the owners are very comfortable with sharing their things. You can pack pretty light for this rental. The view is stunning and the beach (toes in the sand) is literally 21 ft away from the balcony. (6m for Canadians). The resort offers food choices and a bar along with a coffee shop for the morning. We were at the bar twice and it was comfortable and pretty laid back. Lots of TVs for you sports or Bachelor shows. S The umbrella fellow set up the chairs each morning with the pads and the beach was cleaned and dragged each day. We were attending a wedding and it was a perfect setting. We walked to each venue as the wedding was on the beach. Very easy walking the area every day. It is gated and has 24hr security so no worries about safety at night or for children. All in all a great, wonderful, spectacular, relaxing place to spend some time by the Gulf. In the area are lots to do with most being a short drive. 5-15 min. Grocery stores are right at the corner, easily walked and a couple of nice restaurants are nearby. The owners have some very comprehensive documentation on all the area amenities, golf reviews, and restaurants. We used some of the recommendations and they all panned true. That was very helpful. We would definitely stay again sometime soon but the available weeks here, I know, go fast and the owners enjoy their beach house themselves and who wouldn't. Remember to book ahead and hopefully the weeks are open for you. You will not regret renting this beach house. It is a place to make memories. Sunsets are right out your window and still Free!! Cheers from cold, snowy Canada.

Hi Pat & Vic, I just wanted to thank you again for sharing your home with us. We had the most amazing week at The Beach House and the weather was absolutely perfect every day!!! I keep telling everyone we meet in Carillon about how much we love your house and how it is so family friendly, but now I’m thinking we should be keeping it our little secret;-) We have plans to take the kiddos to Disney next year, but we plan to be back again in 2016…can’t wait!

I would just like to say how wonderful is is to be able to stay at the Beach House. You could not pin point a better location as Carillon Beach is 15 minutes away from the airport, 1/4 mile from the grocery store, two doors down from the pool, and 8 feet from the sand. The layout of the home is perfectly set up so that our family was able to bond and at the same time have our own space for sleeping, getting ready, etc. You could not find better people to work with then Pat and Vic, as they could not be more accommodating and available for all of our questions and needs. The Beach House has everything you need in having an absolute perfect vacation. This is the place that you will always come back to whenever you can! Thanks so much Pat & Vic

The Beach House exceeded my greatest expectations. The pictures tell only part of the story! As a grandmother with four young grandchildren The Beach House is where to go to make great family memories. Everything needed is provided (including a full size baby bed, beach towels, beach toys and a kitchen equipped with everything you need). The owners were great to work with and even called to check in on us. Sipping morning coffee prior to a walk on the white sandy beach and watching the sun go down on the porch were my favorites. Only steps away from one of the three pools and the delightful village with restaurants and an ice cream store made our trip perfect. Cannot wait to return.

This is a wonderful location right on the beach with everything you need to have a fabulous beach vacation. The house is very cute, with lots of light, plenty of bathrooms (we had 5 girls for our stay), and well-equipped kitchen, and the surrounding properties are just as gorgeous. Having the resort setting in a gated community, where you can get food and drink within walking distance is a huge plus, making a rental car a plus (since you'll want to travel down 30A for shopping and restaurants) but not a must. Everything very clean. Loved the guide the owners put together, reviewing restaurants and attractions. Their restaurant reccos were spot on! The Terrace and V in Seagrove should not be missed, nor Sunshine's down the road for breakfast. We would definitely recommend The Beach House!
