This was our second stay in Generations and we’ve already picked our dates for next year. Such a great house. From head to tail every detail is perfect, and the view!!!! Wow.

Thanks so much for your awesome review! You are so right about that view! When you look out it just seems to be almost surreal. Its different colors, emerald green water, sugar white sand - all seem to hit you with unblocked splendor.
Our family loved this home. It was clean and beautiful and right on the beach. We all had a wonderful time

Thanks so much for your review. Our primary goal is to have our guests have one of the best beach vacations ever. Location plays an extremely important role in placing you right on the beach during your stay and providing 8 chaise beach chairs complete with umbrellas reserved just for you.
Accommodations were excellent! Great location in a great neighborhood! Will stay here again!

Thanks so much for your kind words. As one of the few 6 bedroom and 6 bath private homes that is beachfront right in the middle of award winning mile long Carillon Beach, Generations does generously accommodate most extended families in comfort and unsurpassed location. With Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP) only 20 minutes away you're closer than ever and don't have to leave the USA.
This is a beautiful house, right on the beach and stocked to the nines with everything you need for a perfect vacation. I’ve stayed in many vacation rentals and this one is top notch. Do yourself a favor and book your next vacation stay at Generations.

Thanks so much for your awesome review. Generations’ 6 bedroom;6 bath beachfront location makes a beach vacation so much more memorable when you always only have to look out any south window to see an uninterrupted view of the sugar white sand beach and Gulf. Each day and each season seem to change the water color inviting you to come join in with the elements. That’s also been elevated for our guests by having your own reserved 8 beach chaises waiting on you from 3/1 to 10/31.
Our family truly enjoyed our stay at Generations! We had plenty of room and the private beach was definitely a plus-We ended our stay with our daughter’s wedding on the beach and reception at the Meeting House-It was perfect!

Thanks so much for your review. Carillon's sugar sand Beach is an awesome best kept secret! It does seem to have something that every generation can enjoy: fun, relaxing beach chairs, beautiful views, sunsets, walks on the emerald blue-green water's edge, and so many lasting memories.
We had a wonderful week at the Generations house. We have been going to Carillon Beach for spring break for 15 years now and Generations Beach House is definitely our favorite house so far.

Thanks so much for your awesome review. Our goal is for our guests to have the best beach vacation ever so we are especially grateful that you enjoyed staying at Generations this year.
Three generations of our family from across the country met for a week at the Generations home. The number of bedrooms and bathrooms was perfect for the 10 of us. It was a great house in the perfect location. All of of the amenities were as advertised! We would definitely stay there again!

Perfect for couples getaway as well as family vacation with the kids.
In my recent review I forgot to add how accommodating the owners were! I emailed them any questions I had and they were so nice to respond immediately. So great to work with.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Apr 2020
Thanks for your kind words about our responses. We love sharing Generations with others and also want to be available when needed. Our goal is to be like a good waiter in a great restaurant: to respond when needed but not join in on the party!
This was our second time staying at Generations - and it was just as perfect as we remembered! A great space & layout for our extended family which includes 12 people ranging from 3 to 80. You feel like you're at the beach even when inside with the huge windows & expansive view. We were constantly down at the beach or pool when not sitting out on the decks. Everything was so easy!

Thanks so much for your review! On behalf of all mentioned just a note to let you know that your trusting us with your family’s vacation time at the beach is an honor and privilege we don’t take lightly.
Our group of 9 had a fabulous stay at the Generations House! The house had everything we needed and the community is amazing! We enjoyed walks every day and played a little pickleball at the community courts! The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook both nights in. The guest cottage was perfect as well. We will certainly be back soon!

Thanks so much for your kind words! We love sharing Generations and Carillon. Pickleball seems to be the go to sport these days and Carillon Beach has two new courts! Looking forward to hosting you again soon.
This was the perfect place for our growing family. The beach was perfect! Even though the first few days hurricane Ida limited beach time for us there was plenty to do inside to keep the kids entertained and happy. We will definitely be back!!!!

Thanks so much for your review! Our goal at Generations is to provide a place where you can re-nourish, rest up, and have fun. If it's a stay in kind of day, we love sharing the games, books, and video subscriptions to help you enjoy that time too.
It was such a fun birthday celebration with good friends! The house is amazing and so fully stocked! Carillon is a perfect location. We had a great time playing tennis, pickleball and walking the neighborhood. I would definitely stay again without hesitation!
My family and I had a great week! We really enjoyed the easy beach access, the daily chair and umbrella setups, the soft sand, and the convenient outdoor shower. The house was super clean and everything worked perfectly. We especially appreciated the well equipped kitchen and the outdoor grill. So nice to focus on fun with the family and not have any accommodation issues at all!
House was everything I hoped for! First time to Carillon Beach and we’ll be back for sure. We had 10 adults and 6 kids (5 months to 5 years old). The house being on the beach was so convenient. House was updated and very clean.

Great Vacation Home, Cozy with Amazing Beach Front Access!! It's a Must Rental!
My family of 10 throughly enjoyed our trip to Generations! The house was perfect and loved the easy beach access. Gorgeous Sand and loved the chair/umbrella set up. So easy to go back and forth from house to beach when needed. Perfect location - close to great restaurants in Carillon, Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach and Panama City. We loved our trip and only wished we could have stayed longer. Would definitely recommend to others and would like to rent again at a future date.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Apr 2020
Thanks for your review. The six cushioned chaise lounge chairs with umbrellas on the Beach are guests' favorites. Carillon Beach is unique with only one "row" of chairs on the entire almost one mile long Beach. There are no chairs in front or behind making for continuous views of the awesome Gulf's aqua clear water, even from the sugar like sand as well as Generations' balconies!
The neighborhood is cute, but a little quiet for me. But the house is amazing. The master bedroom deck was so perfect. The lower deck was also perfect beach view. Seconds and you are in a chair by the ocean. The kitchen was wonderful. I was amazed at the pots that were all clad. Nothing cheap. And the house was well maintained. We will be back.

Wonderful Week in a Wonderful House...Excellent Rental!
This was one of those weeks that I will never forget. We rented the house for a family reunion during Spring Break and had 15 in our party. We wanted a quality place in a nice location right on the beach that could accommodate all of us and that is exactly what we got with Generations Beach House. I would recommend this house to anyone without hesitation. ken was also a pleasure to deal with and made the entire transaction an easy one.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Apr 2020
Thanks for the review and kind words! Your having a great time together as a family on the Beach is one of our motivations in sharing Generations Beach House with others. Precious time together and memories can be remembered by each "Generation" in their own way.
The pictures don’t do the place justice. It was beautiful in person, in the cutest community and in the perfect location! We couldn’t have had a better time. This house is right near the beachfront pool, which was a huge bonus, and we enjoyed walking to get pizza and ice cream in the neighborhood! The appliances and kitchen equipment are top of the line, the beds and pillows are super comfortable, the bathrooms are so nice (nice deep tubs), and they have tons of floaties and toys for the beach. Check in and out couldn’t have been easier! Definitely recommend.

Beautiful Beachfront Home with all the Amenities
This beautiful beachfront home was completely renovated from the last time we stayed there (under different ownership). The renovations are fantastic as the home looks new. It is comfortable, well laid out, and well equipped with the best stocked kitchen and amenities (provision of all soaps) that I have seen in a rental. The owners are extremely easy to work with. Our family had a wonderful stay in this home. The bunk beds are just the right size for young children. The beach is very accessible, making it convenient to go back and forth to the house (another plus with children). I would highly recommend it.
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Apr 2020
Thanks so much for your review. Our guests consist of primarily families building beach vacation memories (along with building sand castles!). It is one of our goals to help them do so by providing most of the same conveniences they have at home. It is our hope, in a small way, that those amenities being already stocked will free up more precious time with each other.

What a Wonderful Week!
The house was everything we had hoped for and more. It provided wonderful sleeping quarters for our group of 15 with one beds left over. Being right on the beach was a blessing as we could have our coffee on the deck and head right down to the water once the sun was up. The location is also ideal if you want to be away from all of the traffic and people in Panama City. we went during Spring Break so this was important to us to have a nice family oriented area which is exactly what Carillon beach provided. I will miss going to bed each night to the restful sounds of waves crashing on the beach. It was truly a wonderful week all the way around.
Response from VrboOwner on 7 May 2020
Thanks for the review! We are excited that your family had such a great time on the Beach at Generations. Your description of a quiet Beach during the day and restful sounds at night is perfect for Carillon Beach. We often comment that it is one of the best "secrets" on the Emerald Coast.

Great Family Beach Vacation
The whole family, grandma, brothers, sisters, grand children.... all were able to enjoy the beach under one roof with this amazing house. There is nothing that compares to being on the beach and being able to run inside to refill your drink or grab another football to throw on the beach. This house is in a prime location and we felt like royalty when the beach workers would come put down our comfy mats and up our umbrella each day. Highlights where using glow sticks on the beach crab hunting and the fact that the beach was all ours with just a few other people. Such great memories for our family on this vacation.

Thanks for the review. You have described so well the reasons for our sharing Generations with families. We are truly humbled by the responses from our guests - no matter the generation. All ages seem to thrive living on the beach - daytime activities or glowing crab hunting nights!
House was a great size and clean upon arrival. Could use some deep cleaning and repainting - fabric side chair in family room is stained, kitchen counter is cracked, cabinet paint is in bad shape in master bathroom and the lower level bathroom and "bedroom" really need updating. Note that the oceanside patio is narrower than at other houses in Carillon, so you won't be able to put more than 3 people around a table and there are no couches, just tall, hard chairs. The location is very close to the pool which was nice. A/C is strong and kept up even in the late afternoon.
Stayed 7 nights in May 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 30 May 2024
Please accept my apologies that the 2 under sink cabinets in the master bathroom needed repainting. It was on the painters' schedule during this past off season but the outside painting schedule trumped it. The downstairs room is not a bedroom, but a tv/game room with two large couches and of course, no bed. All rooms (bedrooms and other rooms) are on an update schedule and we're sorry this one hadn't been updated for you this past off season. Most houses in Carillon are not 6 bedrooms. Those that are only 2 and 3 bedrooms can have larger outdoor spaces that can accommodate more furniture. The "tall" balcony chairs were purchased this year on purpose to allow our guests to see over the railing to better enjoy the awesome Gulf beach view.
About the host
Hosted by Ken Ross
Carillon Beach is as close to the most perfect vacation spot as we have found. We have vacationed on the Gulf coast for several years with our children and grandchildren and have always had a wonderful time. When this Beachfront home in the North West Florida Panhandle became available, we felt it would be a great place for our family and others to enjoy. We were impressed with its location in Carillon Beach which offers and uncrowded quiet beach with fun things to do throughout the community. We are excited to introduce you to or invite you back to the Beachfront Generations Beach House with 6 Bedroom and 6.5 Bathrooms in the Main House and Cottage.
