This property was so new and clean. It was so close to all the local little shops and restaurants. Everything was as described. The fenced in yard was perfect for my dog to spend time by the pool with us. The pool was also a perfect addition to our trip. Everyone agreed we would definitely stay at this location again. There was not a lot of extra toilet paper or trash bags but it wasn’t much of an issue. We just went to the Family Dollar which is a short walk away for more! My only other critique would be for the host to add some sort of privacy curtain to the door. But again this wouldn’t be enough to deter me from staying here. We truly fell in love with this property!

Let me start by saying the house is fine. It’s clean, well situated close to town. The kitchen is a little sparse but wasn’t a big deal as we are are out most evenings. My one star rating is for the property management group. We had several incidents occur including no internet, unexpected lawn and pool services. One of which walked into the backyard with no notice and scared me and my son. Then upon check out someone texted me a photo saying we damaged furniture and charged the card on file 250. Which we did not damage anything so I immediately called to discuss at which point I left a message. She texted me back why it was charged and told me to dispute my card if I had an issue. I texted back and left another voicemail asking her to call me as I wanted to get it resolved with them but no response phone or text. I will have to dispute the charge on file. But I hope the owner reads this and is able to choose a different company to work with as I won’t be back nor will I rent with anyone under that management company. If you’re willing to take the risk - go ahead. But don’t deal with new wave property management unless you want poor service during your stay and unapproved charges without notice.

Not for kids

The place was cute but not advertised well I’ve never stayed at a place that did not offer beach towels nor enough toilet paper or trash bags for the time you stay along with no spices house was nice and pool was good but was no where near a beach nor walking distance when you consider all the traffic not a lot to do. Port st Joe is up and coming but not a place I’d take kids back to. Poop was green when we got there had to wait till next day to even swim before pool guy came I don’t know if these are new people at renting places but not my cup of tea.

We loved our stay at this house. It was clean and roomy enough for our family. The neighborhood was close to everything that we needed. I would have given a perfect score if the backyard had lights. We like to sit outside during the evening, and although the pool would light up until 11pm, we couldn't see to walk. We would still stay here again. The pool was fantastic.
