Great property for adult family vacay
The unit was clean and comfortable with enough space for our 4 adult children and spouses/children. Everybody loved mornings on the front porch, and it was so close to the beach we never even needed the wagon! The kitchen and multiple dining areas allowed for us to share many meals, and the bedrooms and baths were spread out so everyone had their own space. The location was near a couple grocery stores and not to far from the Pier Park for an afternoon luncheon. We were also close enough to Panama City to use the Shell Island Shuttle for a pontoon rental. The back door was difficult to close, there were conflicting check out procedures, and there was some confusion as to if we had left the property or not from the cleaning service, but nothing that detracted from a fabulous adult family vacay!

Paradise Found!
Our family of 10 including a 2-year-old and 8-year-old thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It is in a resort community that is very secure. There are several small shops including a coffee shop, spa, restaurants, a general store and ice cream shop. The location of our rental was close to the beach and other resort amenities. The home itself provided plenty of space and furniture for our family to spread out. It was very clean, comfortable and cool. The huge screened in front porch was a definite bonus! We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Some Good Some Not so Good
Very nice neighborhood. Easy access to beautiful beach. Nice pools. Management company was responsive to issues, thankfully, because there were many, as deferred maintenance on the home was problematic during our stay. This caused additional time in communication with management that should have been leisure time. Most issues we noted to management were fixed such as broken door locks on bathroom sliding doors, No volume from TV in main floor bedroom, missing towel rack in bathroom, bathroom sink drain stopper stuck closed, door handle to patio fell off...One un-resolved issue we reported was the grossly molded bowl and spoon left on patio by cleaning crew, There were several issues we did not request to have fixed as well that could still be in disrepair, for instance: Dishwasher not properly attached so it leans out of counter when opened. Kitchen was not stocked with adequate coffee mugs, bowls, glasses, silverware, etc based on allowed # of guests. Slow drain in rear, 2nd floor tubshower (Yuck!). Wine cooler and TV monitor on 3rd floor are non-functioning. Bottom shelf of refridgerator door broken, beach gear/toy box on porch was a mess with broken and un-usable items included. We did not see adequate instructions on: Where to place trash for pickup (inside trash bins tucked away behind house). Street parking restrictions for guests. We were given warnings for fire lane violations when no indications are posted. Vacasa communication was great.

Once Upon a Time
Carillon Beach is a wonderful community. We Love the security and serenity, the beautiful homes, neighborhood feel, beach access, pools and beaches. We have stayed in a number of different homes over the years. Once Upon a Time is a great house, but needs some TLC here and there. The mattresses in the upstairs bedrooms are simply worn out, missing simple things like a broom and dust pan so no way to clean up sand you might track in. The drain was plugged in the downstairs bathroom, Vacasa was very responsive and repaired it promptly when notified. The internet went down for 2 days, Vacasa again responded and it was back up. Electronic equipment very dated, missing remote for VCR so kind of a hassle for grandchildren watching movies. We could not stream when the internet was down. All that said it was a great value for the money. The house worked well for us. We highly recommend Vacasa based on our experience working thru them. Very seamless.

Perfect for Family Vacation
We loved staying at once upon a time. We could see the steps to the beach from the house. We loved having the chair rental included in our stay. The house had plenty of room for 3 couples and two toddlers. The porches were nice as well. Check in and out was very simple and they are quick to respond to questions.

We loved the location to the walkover, screened in porch, and enough space for our family to spread out in all over the house. Great house!

Love This Village
This was our 1st family vacation with our 3 adult children, their spouses, and children. We had plenty of beds, however it was advertised as 4 full bathrooms & this was not the case. It was 3 1/2. One bedroom upstairs had to share with the King bedroom, which was very cumbersome. Other than that, it was fine and lots of memories were made. Mattresses definitely need to be changed.

The house was very nice and in a great location. Only thing I could recommend is that for the price you pay to stay then you need to update the mattresses in all bedrooms. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Good Location / needs updates
Giving this a 4 only because of the location to the beach. Main room TV small and seating not comfortable. House overall is dated. It was not particularly clean on arrival.. floors felt dirty and bannister was sticky. Stains on couch. Nice to sleep a lot of people with individual beds.

Nice but needs refresh….
Pros: The home is wonderful. Great location, close to the beach and on-property activities. Cons: Only expect the basics for kitchen supplies. We had to purchase a glass bowl (and we donated for the next renter). House is nice and very clean, but it needs a refresh on interior remodel. Dishwasher is on the last leg. Beds need to be replaced - not the worst I have slept in but for the money paid, they can and should be better. House provided two chairs rent free plus to smaller beach chairs. Need to have at lease four chairs (rental) for a house this size. Again very nice, great location but interior was a little dated and beds need to be replaced.

Spacious and beautiful
I rented this home for my parents for my wedding weekend since I got married at the Meeting House in Carillon. The home was perfect and very spacious for my parents and 2 other couples. The beach access was right down the street and you could see it from the living room. Everyone had their own private bathroom and the neighborhood is nothing but gorgeous. We hope to be back at some point!

Wonderful but could not use the grill or upper level
The house was wonderful and in a great location. We tried to grill the first night but were unable to as the grill was engulfed with flames while preheating because it had not been cleaned. Luckily my husband caught it in time and he was able to put it out. Also, the top level ceiling fan did not work which made it uncomfortable and too hot for our son to sleep up there. If these things were corrected we would definitely stay here again.
