Getting Around:
Parking & Golf Cart Info:
Due to so many large families that like to come, we have added a second golf cart for use! One is a 6-seater and the other one is a 4-seater.

2 Golf Carts Included! We don’t charge extra for their use—we want our guests to enjoy it! However, since they get a lot of use, one may occasionally need maintenance. We work hard to keep them in great condition, but if a service call is needed during your stay, we are unable to provide refunds.

Driveway Parking: Fits up to 6 cars OR 2 boats comfortably.
Street parking is strictly prohibited.

Other Things to Note:
Enjoy a perfectly heated pool—no extra fees! Pool heat is already included in your stay, keeping the water at a comfortable 80°F. If you’d like it even warmer, we’re happy to accommodate! For an additional $50 per day, we can heat the pool beyond 80°F to your preferred temperature.

Interaction with Guests:
Feel free to message us if you need us! Reach out on the platform you booked on and one of us will be in touch with you ASAP.

Family Vacation

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed except for a potato peeler. 😄 They have everything there you need to go to the beach. The house was beautiful and the pool and landscaping was very pretty. And having two golf carts made it very convent for everyone to get to the beach. We were giving so much information to help with our stay. It was a very relaxing vacation! A thumbs up from our family!

Family trip

We were so impressed but this property!! The owner was very responsive and was quick to address our needs!! The game room served as a great place to keep the kids entertained which was far enough away that you couldn’t hear the laughing while others were sleeping. The golf cart was absolutely amazing and saved from tracking sand into our vehicles!! Overall we hope to come back very soon!!!

It was just what we needed

A group of friends and I go on a yearly beach retreat. This house was perfect. Close enough to get us our beach time but tucked away enough for us to feel like we had privacy and time to ourselves. Super comfy beds and the pool is gorgeous. We had one minor issue with the AC and the property manager got back to us right away and was truly wonderful. We’ve already booked our weekend here for next year!

Moms weekend away

The house was clean, spacious, and well stocked. The pool was the perfect temperature. The beach supplies were exactly what we needed. The beds were super comfortable. There was an issue with the golf cart while we were there so couldn’t use it the whole time, but the beach was so close it was a non issue, and the owners were super communicative. The house is in EST and Panama City Beach is in CST so planning back and forth drives between the airport was tricky and the only slightly obnoxious but also humorous part about our trip. Overall it was a great stay and would definitely recommend!

Beautiful property near the beach!

The property was absolutely perfect for our weekend!!! Communication with the owners was excellent. They provided detailed messaging and replied almost immediately when contacted. The property photos are accurate and the outdoor space is beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed the heated pool, outdoor dining, umbrellas over the lounge chairs, and the outdoor seating area with a TV. The interior space is open and bright. The kitchen is well-equipped. And the game room hosted evening foosball and darts tournaments. We selected this property to quietly celebrate our son and new daughter-in-law. Their beach wedding at sunrise could not have been more beautiful and meaningful. The house is in a quiet, residential area yet close to everything. This will definitely be our first choice place to stay the next time we are in the area.

Celebrating 3 Generations

Our stay was fantastic! The house was perfect for all of our needs! Very well appointed - inside and out! With 7 “girls”, beds and baths were in high demand - and all of us were happy with our arrangements. The house was light-filled and stayed cool despite the very hot days. The kitchen was a high use area for meals, snacks and games. As the family chef, I was impressed with the volume of kitchenware, cookware and modern countertop appliances readily available (and tucked away neatly). The kitchen worked wonderfully- with a great view and entrance to pool, outdoor living. The pool was well-sized and deep - great for water games! Landscaping and lighting provided our own private resort oasis! Not 1 but 2 golf carts made differing schedules easy to accommodate everyone’s idea of fun for the day. The 6-seater cart was by far the best looking ride around! Beach towels galore and beach equipment onsite provided everything we needed! Pool lounge chairs, umbrellas, dining and plentiful seating, including fan-cooled covered areas! The owners were especially helpful and very attentive to our guest experience! From the time we booked their home they anticipated questions we might have. The FAQs was spot-on! Their timely (and non-intrusive) emails as we approached check in and day of arrival offered great suggestions for everything from activities to food to fun! I wish all of my destinations came with the attentiveness of the owners!! Highly recommend!!!

Amazing!

Our group of 11 (adults, teens, kids) had a wonderful week in Port St Joe. The property was beautiful, lots of space, and had everything we could possibly need. The beds were very comfortable with plenty of linens and towels, and more than enough pool/beach towels for our entire group. We were happy to find that the bunk bedroom had a great walk-in closet, which wasn't clear from the photos. The loft bedroom didn't have drawers or a closet for clothes, but the kids were able to share closet space in the master bedroom. The kitchen was well appointed with lots of pantry space for groceries and plenty of dishes, glasses, utensils and silverware, plus handy appliances such as a blender and air fryer. The backyard was truly an oasis with a beautiful pool, great patio furniture, an outdoor tv, and a landscaped garden with palm trees. While we didn't use the tv, we did make use of the many pool toys, loungers and umbrellas on the pool deck. We loved that the property was only a few minutes from the beach. We made great use of the golf cart during our stay for early morning and evening trips to the beach, as well as the beach chairs and umbrellas. We especially appreciated the outdoor shower. This house honestly had everything we could possibly want and more! Communication with the owners was excellent, and questions were quickly answered. Thank you Dave and Karen for sharing your property - we had an amazing time!

Why they chose this property

Seaside Serenity is a peaceful getaway located on a quiet cul-de-sac. For beach days, you will be just 2 blocks from the soft white sand that you can either walk to or take the golf cart for easy hauling. For days you'd rather lounge at the pool, the large, private backyard, inground pool, seating/sunning areas, grill and outdoor fans are also a great. When you walk into Seaside Serenity, the airy, spacious vibe is perfect for spreading out for families or groups.

What makes this property unique

What makes it unique is how spread apart all of the bedrooms are, the size of the private backyard, the quiet cul-de-sac and location to the beach.
