Great location for a little vacation to escape the northern cold. There are both types of coffee machines which is a nice surprise (I love making a pot of coffee). Beds were comfortable and the home is super quiet! Located just steps away from the beach! We all enjoyed our stay

This was our 3rd stay in Mexico Beach, and this rental, by far, was the best place we stayed at. Virtually a new cottage less than a 3 minute walk to the calm waters of Mexico Beach. Very close to shopping and food. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone that’s planning on staying in the area.
