About this property

Adorable Cottage with Pool Minutes from Beach!

Welcome to our cozy, relaxing home perfect for making beach vacation memories that will last a lifetime! Our newly renovated beach home is just a few blocks from the pristine, quiet beaches of the forgotten coast. After enjoying the warm, white sand and emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico, rinse off in the pool, relax on one of the two porches, gather around the outdoor fireplace, and prepare dinner on the BBQ grill.

Every aspect of this home has been remodeled to create the perfect oasis for a relaxing beach vacation for you and your family.

While the home is equipped to host 6 people, we think the perfect group size is 4-5. We are happy to host all 6, but keep in mind it will be a little cozier.

Sure, eating at fancy restaurants can be fun, but sometimes we all want to have a nice home-cooked meal, right? That’s why our kitchen is fully stocked with the essentials you’ll need to cook a nice meal. In addition, there is access to an outdoor grill on the property!

Other notable indoor amenities include free WiFi, washer/dryer, and smart TVs in both bedrooms and living room.

Best Spring Break Ever

The house is absolutely beautiful. It’s super close to the beach and is well worth it! The host was easy to communicate with and very friendly. If you have to stay somewhere in the Mexico Beach/ Port St. Joe area, this is the place. There were 4 people in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone.

Clean, comfortable beds & good location

This was our first time to stay in the Mexico Beach area and this was a great location. My sister and her daughter met me and my daughter for quick girls trip. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. While small, everything was there that we needed. With it being just us girls, sharing a bathroom was not an issue. The water pressure was good and hot. We walked to the beach a couple of times and drove to Port San Blast one day (to the State Park - which was very nice). Plan your grocery shopping before you get there. The Piggly Wiggly is great and a 10 min drive away. There was a Dollar General Market Place also for those last minute items you may have forgotten. On our way in, we met at a local Pizza Pub and enjoyed waiting to check in to our rental. We ate at one of the local seafood restaurants Sunday night and it was crowded but tasty. We had one hiccup with the plumbing but the host sent a plumber out Sunday morning before we headed to the beach for the day. So it all worked out. Small great place to stay!

Spring Break

My friends and I loved our spring break trip to this adorable cottage. We are college students and wanted to find something affordable that was a short walk to the beach. This home was perfect! Our favorite part was sitting on the porch to watch the sunrise and sunset.

Birthday getaway

Took my grandkids and girlfriend for a weekend getaway. The place was super nice not a far walk to the beach. Everything you need is provided by host. This is the first time I have stayed using a Verbo and I am quite impressed. Thanks for a good first impression. Definitely will stay again!

Cute house and good location

The cottage was super cute and the location was great. We booked this house for our girls weekend because of the pool. Unfortunately the ladder was in very bad condition and we could not access the pool. We booked the house over a month in advance. It looked like the ladder had been on its last leg for months. Overall we liked the house but was disappointed to not be able to use the pool. We did contact the property manager and he was unable to have the ladder replaced during our stay.

Spring break 23

You never know what to expect to do in March. So i chose this property with that in mind. Pool incase there was pool weather, i dont like getting in the ocean, but love the beach. And there was the electric fireplace for cool nights. Covered porches for rain. Great! Loved the entire stay
