About this property

Mellow Yellow in Carillon - Only a few steps to Beach - Beach Service included

If you're looking for coastal charm and casual comfort, then Mellow Yellow is the place for you. Everything is here and ready for you to make this your best beach vacation ever!
Mellow Yellow is on Carillon Avenue, right in the heart of the village - only two houses from the gorgeous uncrowded beach and only three houses from the belltower and its melodic tunes and regular chimes. The three pools, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball court, playground, Lake Carillon, and Downtown are all just a brief walk away via sidewalks and lovely promenade paths. This is a one-of-a kind seaside village where you can let your kids ride their bikes around the neighborhood. Security is of utmost importance at Carillon, where we have a manned gatehouse and security personnel patrolling the premises.

Mellow Yellow's bright cheerful decor puts you in the right mindset for your special Carillon vacation. With large comfortable rooms and plenty of spacious porches and outdoor areas, this is the perfect vacation home for spending time together, while also being able to grab some quiet time for yourself. Gather your group for meals and games in the living and dining area, or sneak away with a book on the screened-in porch, enjoy a rocker on one of the front porches, or take an afternoon nap in the tower.

Perfect family vacation!

We took our children and grandchildren to Mellow Yellow in mid May and had a wonderful time. The house accommodated our needs and it was so nice to have access to bicycle and beach chairs without having to rent them. The house was only a few houses down from the walkover to the beach and very convenient to the largest Carillon pool and the playground. The owner and manager were wonderful to work with and hope to be back to Mellow Yellow in the future.

Steps to the Beach Mellow Yellow Panama City

My family had a wonderful stay at Mellow Yellow in Panama City. I was looking for a nice home within short walk to beach, pools, and play grounds - we got all that and more. With my daughter and her family heading overseas for a military assignment, we wanted to have a great time on a beach vacation that would meet grandchildren age 2-4 time at beach and pool. The house is good size, as advertised, well equiped kitchen that allowed us to make special meals, along with the porches and back yard providing good play space for everyone. Highly recommend Mellow Yellow and hope to stay here again.

Great beach house

We’ve stayed at this property several times now with the same group. Location is a quick walk to the beach or multiple pools. Kids love the crow’s nest sleeping area upstairs. Also love that it comes with two pairs of beach chairs with umbrella service.

Carillon Beach - Beautiful home

This was one of our favorite vacations ever! Mellow Yellow was perfectly suited for our family, including grandparents, parents, and three young children. It is very conveniently located, close to the beach and not far from the heated pool. Sally was wonderful, very responsive and helpful. The kitchen was great, the backyard beautiful, great dining area, just a terrific Vrbo rental. We hope to return!

Wonderful Family Spring Break

After a very long drive from the Midwest, our family was thrilled to call Mellow Yellow home for a week! The home was clean and well appointed. The location of the house to the beach was AMAZING! We loved being able to walk back easily to use the bathroom, grab a snack, etc. Carillon is a lovely neighborhood that is quiet and beautiful. The Mellow Yellow reserved chairs on the beach MADE the vacation for a mom who was excited to read under an umbrella while enjoying the gorgeous view. Sally was attentive and helpful during our stay! We cannot wait to return to Mellow Yellow!

All things bright and yellow!

Our family has stayed at many properties at Carillon. Yellow Mellow was a huge hit!! The spaciousness of the home was my family's favorite feature. It is beautiful, inside and out! You can't beat the proximity to the beach! The owners were exceptional.... before, during, and after our stay. They addressed a small problem with the cable immediately and were so kind. My family said that they would definitely like to come back to Mellow Yellow!

About the host

Hosted by VRBO

Host profile image
We love coming to Carillon and enjoying all that it offers - a gorgeous uncrowded beach, wonderful pools, and well-maintained tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts. It's that perfect place that is tucked away from all the hustle and bustle of 30A and Panama City Beach; yet it's only a few minutes ride away in either direction when you're ready for more activity. Carillon Beach just has that warm and inviting look and feel; it's not just another beach resort. It's a great place for a leisurely stroll and also a place where your kids can ride their bikes. We hope that you will enjoy Mellow Yellow and Carillon Beach as much as we and so many others do.

Why they chose this property

Over the years we rented many different places in the panhandle. Then one rainy afternoon we were driving around and discovered Carillon Beach. We fell in love with the community and homes there. We rented many different homes in Carillon and made note of the various features that would make a special vacation home. We worked with our architect and builder to incorporate those features into Mellow Yellow.

What makes this property unique

We were fortunate enough to have an architect who listened carefully to what we were looking for in a vacation home-- from the atrium living area and captain's hallway to the wonderful porches. Then he threw in his own touches like the the lighthouse stairway, curved loft area, and board and batten. Gary Justiss homes are special, and we were lucky enough to have him design ours.

Mellow Yellow is centrally located and situated perfectly within Carillon. It is just two homes from the beach, and it's a very short walk (just a couple blocks) to two pools; the tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts; and Downtown area. Our walkover is the only one with bathrooms underneath (a real plus for a day on the beach), but Mellow Yellow is close enough for a quick run back for a drink or snack, too.
It's fun just to sit on one of the front porches and listen to the carillon music right down the street while the beachgoers stroll by the house.
