Hi Amber! Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed the location, found the home well-stocked, and that the kids loved the pool. It’s always great to hear when everything comes together for a fun and easy stay. We’d love to have you back again soon!
This was a really nice house, great place by the beach. Kitchen had nice non stick pans to cook in, they provide 6 beach towels and about 4 bathing towels per bathroom. This property doesn’t provide unmbrellas, chairs , wagon or beach toys, but you can rent umbrellas and chairs from property management company for a price. There are things that need some attention, like the garbage disposal was dripping from underneath the sink, so we could only use one side of the sink to wash dishes. In my family we like to cook so that was a big deal to us. Property manager said they couldn’t get it fixed until they had time between reservations. Also there were no working light bulbs in the third floor patio, so make sure to bring your own. The washing machine smelled when we got there so I had to run a cleaning cycle with bleach. We did have a problem with the ac not cooling but the property manager sent someone out the same day. Other than that, we really enjoyed this house, it was super convenient and this location was great for my teens to explore.

The French Kiss is a beautiful home with lots of room for families. We slept 4 households with plenty of room to spare. Great location however beach is not private and is next to public beach access. House was clean and well equipped with everything you need. Would strongly suggest you heat the pool before Memorial Day weekend. It was almost too cold to swim. We will definitely be back again!

Family Vacation
Great house for 18 of us from 83 to 3! Ample room, was concerned about size of pool, but it worked well for our 7 little ones. Everyone having their own bed and bath was a dream. A few kitchen issues, but we fumbled through. Dishwasher and oven a little tricky to use. And a railing out to beach would have been a plus. Other than those two things we were very pleased.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and happy you had a good time at the beach. We hope you come see us again. Holiday Beach Rentals
We need earlier check in and in the end was able to get in a bit sooner. We immediately noticed the property had been smoked in. We were concerned because we had travelers with asthma. We were unable to use the bottom floor.

French Kiss Review
We had a good experience renting this property. We did see a few bugs that resembled roaches, some of the light bulbs were out (need new bulbs on the upper outside deck), the ice machine was missing downstairs, the drain in the upstairs queen bedroom was slow, the Wi-Fi was somewhat awful & it was impossible to watch TV. Kitchen could be better stocked for families to cook. But the beds were super comfortable, check in and check out was easy, the beach was beautiful, and property management was lovely to deal with.

Spring Break 2019
We had a great time in the French Kiss home. We had 17 people in this home and had extra beds. Each couple had their own master suite and all the kids enjoyed the bunk rooms. The house is large and very accommodating. We had the pool heat turned on as the weather was not extremely hot during our visit. Holiday Beach Rental Staff went above and beyond during our stay. Loved that you could just walk out to the beach or chose to hang out by the pool. The charcoal grill is an amazing perk. One down side is, in previous stays at other rentals past guests have left coffee filters or seasonings...its always nice when you don't have to buy a whole bottle of something for a one week stay. It would be nice if cleaning staff would leave these small items in the cabinets for future guests.

Thank you for writing a review. We are happy you had a great time in such a beautiful home. Unfortunately, we do not keep items that are left from previous guests including kitchen items, pool toys, etc. due to all guests are different and may not want items that other guests have used. Therefore the cleaners will clean it out ready for the next guest. We hope to see you again in the future to one of our many other beautiful homes. Thank you, Holiday Beach Rentals

Horrible Smell
Location of the home was good. Rental company was good to work with. The house was lacking in a lot of areas. As soon as you open the door to the house an overwhelming smell hits you. It smells like stale cigarette smoke with stale dirty water. It made us all not even want to be in the house. The whole house just had a very dirty feel to it. All of the outdoor furniture was extremely dirty, rusty, and just unusable. Would not rent this property again.

Beautiful but just a few tweeks needed
The property and location are beautiful! The decor of the house was on point! Loved it!!! It was a wonderful place that we would consider visiting again. We just had a couple minor issues. We notified the owner of the lack of cleanliness of the house. Our bare feet were black after just a few hours in the house. The cleaning service came back and wet mopped the floor which helped. The pool alarm on the sliding door is extremely annoying. The button must be pushed every time the door is opened and it will resound after 12 seconds. It cannot be disabled. The walkway to the beach does not have handrails which was a problem for our over 60 year old members of our group. I understand that the handrail may take away from the breathtaking view of the beach, but just something to consider. One thing to keep in mind if you are not an early riser is to NOT sleep in one of the ocean front bedrooms. There are no window coverings and the sunlight may wake you. I loved staying at French Kiss and would highly recommend it for a large group.

The house was beautiful, the view was gorgeous, but it wasnt as clean as expected. The house was in need of a good deep cleaning. There was a good layer of dust on any surface that was not regularly used. The light fixtures in some of the bedrooms were especially dusty. There was enough dust on some surfaces that you could write in them and read them clearly. The showers were in need of a thorough cleaning. Shower floors were mildewed around the edges where people dont stand. There was mold in some of the seams in the showers. Biggest issue with the shower was there was no niche to put your toiletries. We had to put them on the floor of the shower. The unit was listed to have dishwasher and it did. But they didnt get it working until our 2nd to last day. It smelled rancid, that smell hadn't cleared completely even when we left, but we only got to run the dishwasher 3 times. We had to hand wash all our dishes for 5 days. On top of that, we would go to use some dishes and have to wash them because they were put away dirty. Then we go to wash clothes and towels halfway through our trip and the washing machine isnt working. Come to find out there is something wrong with the cold water line and it shuts down because its not filling up quick enough. So now i have mostly wet towels sitting in a washing machine. I had to run a spin cycle to drain, then hang them up on the railing outside.We waste hours waiting on 2 maintenance men and the appliance repair man. Unhappy

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. That’s certainly not the level of service we strive to provide.
Your feedback is important to us, and we’re committed to correcting the items you mentioned.
This is a great place for a large family. Check in was seamless, house was perfect. Walk right out on the beach whenever you want. Interaction with the property management was always pleasant and helpful. Definitely will stay here again.

Hello Bryan,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to invite you back during our slower seasons for a more quiet laid back beach experience. Spring break is definitely one of our busiest seasons.
Of course the home is beautiful but the pool on the deck causes an issue because you need to hit a button to go in and out or else an alarm sounds if you don’t get in and out in time which is about 10 secs before it goes off. Being on the beach was wonderful and all the rooms were very nice for the 15 family members we had stay there who ranged in age of 2-80. Some sheets and towels did have stains and it would have been nice if they left at least one extra roll of paper towels or toilet paper for the amount you pay. The location is good if you like that part of PCB otherwise it’s about a 10-15 min drive to decent restaurants.
The property management company nickel and dimes you for everything from having the pool heated to checking in two hours early. They did respond quickly to emails and calls but they have a pretty iron clad agreement. We had 80 year olds with us and asked to move the date due to COVID and it costs us $200 to move the date even though we were 3 months out.
The property and location are nice but I don’t think I would rent from that property management company again.

Hello Samantha,
We definitely understand your frustration with the pool alarm however, it is a FL law we must follow and we try to make this as visible as possible in the property description so guests are aware. We are happy to hear overall you enjoyed your stay and hope you consider us in the future.
Thank you,
