Is a little bit older home but nice location and a very attentive owner to any needs you may have. Only 5 min or so from public beach and gulf seashore we loved. If we go back to panhandle of Florida we would stay again.

Ideal location. Very clean except for a couple dead roaches. The A/C worked, but it never got cool, so I would bring a fan next time. This place had nice utilities and had everything we needed for a great stay.

The little house was perfect for us and our pups!
I felt safe having all the motion detector lights around the outside of the house. There was a lot of foot traffic a block away, but the little side street the house is on was quiet! The house itself had all the essentials and we were happy to have our pets with us!

Great place!
Everything about this property was so simple and easy. The host was very attentive to the questions I had. The location was on a great place. Very calm. The house itself was older, but it was very homey and filled with things that you wouldn’t expect normally and had everything we needed! Would definitely rent this property again!

Awesome Little Beach House ❤️
The location was fantastic, just down the street from dining, shopping and the beach. Could easily ride a bicycle to the Fort Walton shopping strip! The house had everything you may want/need for your trip. The host was awesome and was super easy to work with and extremely responsive. Kid and pet friendly rental, plenty of parking! We will definitely pack less next trip to The Pearl since they have everything available to use when you get there.

Adorable and convenient
It’s a great little cottage much nicer than any hotel room you’ll find at that price. It’s conveniently located and the host was great. The bathroom door doesn’t close well, which is awkward as close as the beds are to the bathroom. I also wouldn’t stay here with my dogs again because the neighbor’s dog hopped the fence pretty easily and gave mine a hard time, making it hard to walk mine.

Very grateful we could bring our dog, we were there for nephew’s wedding. Last 3 days our grandson didn’t want to go home early so he stayed with us. We were pleasantly surprised when one of the days we barely made it to the driveway because of the Pirate Parade! We All thought that was awesome! For the price it was worth it…we also enjoyed walking through the old cemetery across the street, historical.

Cute Little House!
One of my best friends and I stayed here from Wed-Sat. Perfect house for those wanting to save a little money, yet still stay in a nice place! All the household items (paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, laundry detergent, dish soap etc) were provided in enough quantities if you wanted to use them. The couches were comfy, the beds were comfy. Overall, very nice and convenient place. The property owner was super responsive to messages about any questions we had. She even had a Walmart delivery for extra items if we needed them! Highly recommend!

So very clean. Having a washer and dryer was wonderful. However the kitchen floor needed fixed as well as the frig. The frig kept blowing the circuit breaker and it had to be re set about twice a day. Would and will book again. Thank you

Works for a short stay.
House is very old and a little rough. Everything was clean and had all the essentials for our visit it was just a bit old and worn out. Landlord was very nice and easy to work with. It’s close to everything, but the neighborhood was pretty rough. I wouldn’t recommend walking around without a large dog. The homeowner next door was very nice. I don’t think we would choose this particular property again.

Definitely would not recommend this property.
Disappointing we did not stay. I’m not an electrician but did not feel safe with the wiring. Air conditioner’s need cleaned. Not comfortable at all with the neighborhood. Air conditioner lite was on for filter change, took cover off and it was black inside.

Disgusting. VRBO didn't care.
This home has sagging/rotting, uneven floors and stairs. Not a cute cottage made to look rustic. The tin is falling off. The stove was disgusting. I got a hotel room instead and called VRBO, who connected me to the owner who was (as expected) less than happy with our convo. No refund was issued as promised. Further contact attempts ignored.

If it’s to good to be true
Mix matched furniture barely hanging on,stocked the bare basics if that,no water pressure,no hot water, older home with what foundation there is rotting and floors that are sinking with some Spots dubious if it’s even safe to stand on as for air conditioning two very small window air conditioners that do nothing to battle floridas summer heat if you can get it down to upper 80s inside it’s a miracle basically if real work was put into the house and money spent it would be as great as we all thought it was when we looked at listing

Great Trip!
I was looking for quite some time for a nice place for my gals and I to stay for our beach trip and this certainly was the place! It’s in a great location! Close to everything and the owners are very kind and respond swiftly! Only downfall is the house is a little run down but that didn’t stop us from having an amazing time!

Convenience and cozy
My family and I enjoyed our stay. Enjoyed the convenience of having our dogs with us and close access to everything we wanted to see! Wish the yard was fenced in only because the dogs from the neighbors house roam free and we had two incidents walking our dogs out to use the bathroom and running into unleashed dogs from next door. Could use a bit of updating but the hosts were extremely helpful and responded quickly to any questions I had.
