Off season family trip

Off season is my favorite time to visit the beach. We have stayed in Carillon for many years. This was by far our favorite rental. The red flag kept us out of the ocean but didn’t deter our enjoyment of the beach. The pool next to the house wasn’t heated so we didn’t have any noise issues. My adult sons enjoyed golf in PCB. The seafood was disappointing, but the Publix’s across the street has delicious subs!!! Roadwork really slowed the flow of traffic on Hwy 98!! The house is fully equipped with everything you need.

Great beach house

This house was exactly as pictured. The view of the ocean from the back porches was amazing and it was a very short walk from the private walkway to the sand. The beach was clean and not crowded which made our stay even better. Would highly recommend this beach house

Relaxing on the beach

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was very comfortable, listening to the waves sitting on the porch or from the beach chairs was really relaxing. Before booking we were concerned that the pool would be noisy. Chelsea (property manager) assured us it wouldn't be and she was correct. While the pool had people coming and going, it was never a distraction or nuisance. We spent most of our meals cooking in and the kitchen wasn't lacking anything that I'd consider necessary equipment. Only hiccup in our stay was I didn't realize that there was only one TV on the property, which led to friction one evening. That said, kids learned to share again. Another note on the kids, they were happy with the WiFi. I'm not sure that's important for every family, but it certainly is for mine. Chelsea was great in answering our questions. She was very prompt. We would be happy to stay at this property again.

Perfect location and host

Chelsea was amazing about answering questions beforehand and making sure the check in process was smooth. Once there, it was one of the cleanest VRBOs we've stayed at, not a speck of a sand inside the house, yet being on the beach is a very hard task. The high chair, and stair gate worked well for our 2 year old. There were a few books for children as well. The views were breath taking. The dishes / silverware were perfect for our needs, we took our own pots (nonstick), but there was stainless steel ones available. There are even towels to remove make up, bandaids, all kinds of little things that show that they are trying to cover every need that could arise. I never had a need to contact her during our stay, but if I had, I have a feeling she would've responded instantly.

Relaxing Family Girls Trip - Perfect location

Our stay at Fairview in Carillon couldn’t have been better. Denise is extremely organized with the rental process and her pre arrival packet. Fairview couldn't be more perfectly located. It’s extremely clean and stocked. I stayed with my mom and 2 sisters. Just steps to both beach and pool. Best views ever from every room!! Comfortable beds and plenty of room for the 4 of us. Nothing better than the sound of the waves from the front porch or upper deck Amazing sunsets w a cocktail or sunrise w a cup of coffee Lots of bikes and beach and water toys in the garage Everything you could possibly need for a fantastic vacation. Denise was even extremely quick on the deposit refund. I highly recommend this place. I know we will be back for sure to make more family memories !

On the south side of the home, the Master bedroom overlooks the beach and Gulf of Mexico with it's own private deck. On the north side of the house, both bedrooms boast beautiful views over Lake Carillon. And right next door to the house you will find Carillon's Beach Club, which features a beautiful gulf front pool.

Take the kids for a spin around Carillon on one of our six provided bicycles, or enjoy the playground, basketball court, tennis courts, or one of several pools and green spaces that Carillon Beach offers. There is plenty to do here for the whole family, and so much less worry about the safety of your children riding bikes on the streets of a private gated community!

With your own private beach walkover and beautiful decks to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico, you won't be disappointed with your stay at Fairview Cottage!
