The house was very clean and had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. The neighborhood was quiet and the beach was very close, as was the local coffee and ice cream shop. My family agrees that this was the best vacation destination we’ve been to yet!
The house is well maintained for a large family with pets. very nice floor plan and quite neighborhood within steps of the beach. Will say again for sure.
This house is beautiful. Well laid out and perfect for a couple or for a family. Conveniently located to the beach and within walking distance of wonderful restaurants! Great backyard for my two small dogs!
We had a wonderful time during our stay in Mexico Beach. We stayed in The Sandy Beach home. It had everything you might need during your stay and was very clean and well taken care of. It was a nice short walk to the beach. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Mexico Beach again.
The house was very nice. We loved having access to all the outside beach stuff… chairs, wagons, umbrellas, and toys. We would definitely stay here again.

This was the perfect location for a quiet beach trip. The house was all one level which works great for aging parents. The fenced back yard was perfect for our dog. The beach, coffee shop, food trucks and a local playground were all a short walk. Even with nearby construction it was a peaceful spot. I definitely recommend for multi-generation families traveling together.

Great Stay!!
Great rental. Comfortable, clean & updated. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Beach equipment was a huge plus. Pups enjoyed the yard. Very short distance to the beach. Highly recommend!!!
Really love the property. House was clean well-kept, Didn’t have steps to climb up and down which is really nice. First time we’ve ever been to Mexico beach we loved it. The beach was perfect. Hopefully this property will be available next year when we decide to go.

Great location and very quiet
Very comfortable accommodation, with just about everything we needed. Our friends stayed in the master, and we stayed in the front bedroom. Only improvement (and reason for not being 5 stars) would be room darkening shades or curtains in the front guest bedroom. The sun comes right into that room in the morning. Otherwise, perfect for our friends and us and our fur-kiddos!

Sandy Beach House Mexico Beach FL
House has fully equipped kitchen. Lots of glasses, plates, ect. Extra blankets. Quiet location. Friendly neighborhood. All floors are tile, making cleaning easy. Loved the fenced in back yard. House is in excellent condition. Beach is a block and a half away. Sunsets on the Beach were gorgeous! We had a very enjoyable stay!
Our family (2 adults, 2 little kids) stayed for a long weekend in early May. The house is close to the beach (easy walk with a cart and chairs) and close enough to walk back if you forget something. No stairs from the house to the water which is nice. The house came with a cart, toys, cooler, chairs, beach towels, etc which was helpful. The house is basic but clean and has everything you need including games for the kids. The kitchen is well stocked. It was plenty big enough for a family of 4 and would be fine for up to 6-7 people I think. It's great that the house is one story and at grade so loading/unloading the car was super easy (carport is directly next to the door/kitchen). Also great is that we were able to bring our dog and let her out in the backyard (nice grass, fenced).
If you haven't been to Mexico Beach, there isn't a grocery store in town but there is a market with staples and a liquor store and coffee shop. Mango Marley's is the only sitdown restaurant but there are several food trucks that are very good (Killer Seafood is the best we thought). We also really liked buying fresh fish and crab claws at the Shell Shack (they will steam the shrimp/crab for you). If you need more food options/grocery/cvs, etc you can drive 10 mins down the beach to Port St Joe.
Overall, the house and Mexico Beach got 5 big stars from our family.

Relaxing vacation
Sandy Beach house was perfect for me and my two dogs. Plenty of room both inside and out. The neighborhood is quiet and just across the street from the beach.
Very open and user-friendly layout. Well-maintained and clean. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the tools you could need to cook anything. Dining area is great for meals and games. The living room is cozy. Furnityre is in good conditiin.Bedrooms are nicely-sized. Bathrooms are clean, modern and roomy.The fenced-in backyard made this trip so easy. Great to hang outside with our dog.Location provides view of ocean at end of driveway. Beach is 2 blocks down the street. Several small businesses nearby provide food, drinks and sweets.Great place. There were only 4 of us, but 6 people could be very comfortable.
