Super close to the beach, loved being able to run up to the house for a quick lunch break. Also centrally located to Alys restaurants and Barrett Square. Zero complaints! Paradise Properties was very responsive to all of our needs!

Overall our stay was good. However, we were disappointed that the maintenance guy came twice to turn on gas fireplace for us and it never worked. It would have been great to use it on those chilly mornings. The hinge on gate is broken which keeps gate from staying open. We all agreed it would have been great to have a rug inside front door to catch some of the sand from shoes. A cheese shredder would be a nice addition to kitchen tools. Nothing serious. Just helpful hints.

While this was our first time in this home, we have stayed in this edition many times. It is in an ideal location very close to Rosemary and Alys (walk and/or bike). The homes (including this one) are beautiful, comfortable, and well appointed. The beach situation was a surprise due to state COVID-19 guidelines, which unintentionally bunched everyone in a concentrated area and actually had the opposite effect of the intended "social distancing." We adapted and it worked out fine. Hopefully as restrictions are relaxed, the beach will be back to normal soon! Either way, we had a WONDERFUL week and will continue to return to one of our favorite vacation spots.

The house is clearly renovated and well kept. A lot of nice touches in decorations, kids games, and kitchen utensils. Great location and amenities as promised.

This was our first time to the area and we were so excited with what we found. The house was the perfect size for our family. It was comfortable, bright and airy. The staff at Paradise properties was also so helpful from the time we booked until check out. We can't wait to visit again. MANAGEMENT RESPONSE Hey Jaime! Thank you for taking a moment to let us know how your stay went at "Mare e Sole". We are so glad to hear you had a great time and had all you needed for a perfect beach vacation! We enjoyed hosting your stay and hope to do so again soon! -Paradise Team

We loved this little carriage house. It was perfect for our mother/daughter vacation getaway. We walked to restaurants each evening and entertainment. Close walking distance to the pool which overlooks the beautiful gulf and the beach. Kitchen was fully stocked. Bikes came with the rental so were able to bike along 30A. This house was within a gated community with 24 hour security. Very quiet!!! Property Managers were wonderful! We will definately book again!! We're already ready to go back!

Perfect little house for our family, short walk to the beach and pool! Walking/biking distance to all kinds of shopping/eating!

This house was lovely and was so clean upon arrival! It was also available for us to arrive earlier than expected! The location was awesome and we were steps from the beach!! We were also close to the shops and restaurants as well!! Loved this home and would highly recommend staying here!!! 💗

The house was cute and clean. Close to the beach and walkable to many restaurants

We enjoyed our stay and have no complains! Thanks!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Mare e Sole. The property was clean and exactly as listed and the communication from property management was proactive and very helpful. Great location and perfect amenities in the area for young families. Will definitely stay here again!

Pros- The location is great! Right between Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach. Bike or walk to restaurants in the area. Cons- the place was dirty. Hair sand and dirt on the floors. Management came to inspect after requesting a vacuum. They swept with a broom and left some extra bath towels. Still turned our feet black if we went barefoot. The place could use a deep cleaning. We will stay in the area again but will try a different rental.

Easy walk to the beach and pool. Close to shops and restaurants. Very clean and very nice!

We loved the location with close proximity to Rosemary Beach, Seacrest Beach and Alys Beach. Disliked the beach access due to the busyness of the beach and the umbrella rental company having first dibs on prime beach spots.

We made some great memories in this house on our first family vacation. The location was great, but the beach was super crowded with folks from outside the community. The neighbors behind played loud music every night and the ])property was dusty as well as the floor very dirty. Also, though the pots and cookware were okay, the lack of essentials like cooking oil, salt / pepper and herbs made for a rather expensive and wasteful purchase at the grocery (since we couldn't fly back with these). We won't fret the details, all in all great family vacation.

We had a relaxing stay the week between Christmas and New Years. The location was wonderful - we rode bikes to dinner, shop and explore. A short 3 minute walk to the beach to watch the sunset and even enjoy the warm sunshine one day. House was comfotable for our family of 5.

The house was cute, clean and spacious enough for our family. Some beach supplies were provided (beach cart, boogie boards and float) and appreciated. The best part was being able to walk to restaurants and shops nearby.

Great location and great service, would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was the perfect size for our small family, and we enjoyed riding bikes with easy access to Seacrest/Rosemary Beach areas along with a nice pool overlooking the ocean. The beach area is a nightmare during the day, though. The beach chair companies take up most of the beach and apparently need to be booked many months in advance to even have a chance of securing a couple of chairs. The area where you can setup your own umbrellas and chairs was so crowded that many people were unable to use the beach at all during the peak times of the day because there were so many people setup between the ocean and the dunes. We like using the beach mostly in the evenings, so it wasn't a huge impact for us as it thinned out around then. But if you're the type who likes to be out there during peak times, you may want to consider another location with a different beach access. Also the hosts were attentive and had everything we needed already on the property, so we didn't really need to contact them for anything.

The carriage house was very clean and perfectly appointed. The layout was wonderful. We enjoyed everything about our stay. The house is located directly between the beach and shops. We would definitely stay here again.

We love Rosemary beach! This was our first visit at the property, and it was a great location. Easy access to the beach!

Great

Warm and cozy…close to the beach and great restaurants!

Everything went well, would definitely stay here again.

Clean, comfortable, great washer and dryer, lovely kitchen, we’ll-appointed, excellent property location.

This house was great! It was so close to beach and we could walk to everything. We walked to Alys restaurants and to the Rosemary restaurants. The house was very well appointed. The appliances were brand new and the grill was brand new. The one big negative is the monopoly of the beach by Dolce Vita Chair Rentals. They have the marjority of the beach covered in their rental chairs. There were 5 rows of chairs and the rows were probably more than a football field in length. You MUST rent chairs to have any type of access to the beach because the portion of the beach not occupied by Dolce Vita is probably 100 square feet. Seriously. You are assigned a spot at the first of the week and it does not change. If you are on the 4th row, you can’t even see the beach. You are not supposed to bring your own chairs to set up around the rented ones either. We paid $400 for 2 chairs and an umbrella. I couldn’t afford to pay for 3 more chairs for my children and could not even set chairs up for them next to or in front of us. I would have to say I would not stay in this area again because if the beach situation. We have been going to Seaside for 20 years and came to Rosemary this year for a change. I would go back to Seaside from now on. You pay too much for these rentals to not be able to enjoy the beach.

We had a great family vacation. Everything as described. We would come again.

Overall the property was really nice and so was the location. Very close to lots of really cool shops and the beach. If you are looking to cook the grill is in not in good shape at all.. Property management was very helpful each time we contacted them. The neighborhood is basically beach access to other communities and the area of the beach you can use is very small. La dolce vita chair rentals tripled their prices the day we got there and they occupy the majority of the beach. It rained all day Monday and Tuesday the very rude security guard let everyone know the beach was closed until 12 MULTIPLE times for stair cleaning. As my family and I proceeded down the walkway he chased us in his golf cart to remind us again that the beach was closed as we were heading to the pool. The man stopped us 3 times within an hour to tell us the beach was closed. Then proceeded to tell us we could not push our stroller on the greenway unless our child that jumped out midway was in it. It felt like this man just wanted to pick on someone and feel important with all the rules and regulations he could come up with. I hope no one has the encounter with him that we did, but he was plain awful. ALSO, the beach opened at 9:30, not 12 leaving many people besides me very angry at the security guard.

Wonderful vacation property

Pros: The property was clean and well maintained. The bikes were a nice added benefit. The location is very central to all the shops and restaurants of the area. There was the perfect amount of space for our family of 4. Cons: I didn't read the fine print to realize there were no beach towels included. This was an unpleasant surprise and not easy for those of us traveling by air. The beach near this property is VERY CROWDED as well. While the kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/appliances, etc., the supplies were sparse: only one kitchen garbage bag was included with rental as well as no tissues, etc. These aren't a big deal but who wants to go buy a box of kitchen garbage bags on day 3 of vacation? A few more supplies would be a nice touch.

Perfect size home for our family. Plenty of room when we had some friends join us for dinner.
