PETE'S PARADISE IS MODERN, SPACIOUS FLOOR PLAN! GREAT FENCED IN BACKYARD WITH FIREPIT, PET FRIENDLY!

NEW HOME LOCATED IN A QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD! LARGE BACKYARD WITH COVERED PATIO, FENCED IN BACKYARD AND FIREPIT!! BOAT PARKING IS AVAILABLE.

Pete's Paradise is the perfect beach house to escape the crowds and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere of the Forgotten Coast. This coastal home has an open concept living area with a split floor plan and offers all-new, modern amenities including vinyl plank flooring throughout! Enjoy hours of entertainment in the shaded backyard under the covered patio or gather around the fire pit with friends and family for a fun evening. Miles of white sand beaches and pristine water are just a short 2.5 blocks away from the home (less than a 5-minute walk) in St. Joe Beach, FL.

As you enter the home you are greeted with an open concept living, dining, and kitchen area which is beautifully decorated with modern furniture and inviting coastal decor giving you plenty of space to stretch out and relax. The fully equipped kitchen features a large island, pantry, and new appliances. The open concept living area with tons of natural light is a great place to gather with friends and family for an ultimate beach getaway. 55-inch smart TV located in the living area with access to log in to your own Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc. account.

The split bedroom floor plan gives you privacy from your guests. The spacious master suite offers a king bed, 43 inch smart TV, and an en-suite bathroom with double vanity. One guest bedroom has a queen bed, while the other has bunk beds. Guest bedrooms share a full bathroom with double vanity. On-demand tankless hot water heaters are available for plenty of hot water for everyone.
When you are ready to venture to the beach, you'll find paradise in less than 5 minutes! Load up the beach buggy (provided for you) and enjoy combing the secluded beach for shells, snorkeling, kayaking, sunbathing, surfing waves, fishing, or taking a leisurely stroll along the shoreline, you'll spend hours of fun while soaking up the sun. For the fishing enthusiast, launch your boat at the nearby Mexico Beach Marina boat ramp or Port St. Joe boat ramp and take in some first-class fishing, or book your family on a fishing charter day trip out on the water to catch your dinner.

After a long day at the beach, make your way to the backyard for some fun and games, or kick back with your favorite beverage under the covered patio. Gather around the fire with smores and make memories of a lifetime. Outdoor games are provided for your enjoyment.

When you are ready to venture out, visit nearby Port St. Joe for shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. Downtown offers cute shops along Reid Avenue, many restaurants, and grocery stores. Don't forget to check out the historical Lighthouse and Sea Turtle Museum. We love our sea turtles! Mexico Beach is just a few miles away and offers restaurants and shops. For an adventure, take a ride to Cape San Blas and visit St. Joseph Peninsula State Park for access to the beach and Joseph bay. It offers natural hiking trails, miles of untouched beaches, and access to launch kayaks or paddleboards to adventure along the gulf coast. For an amazing experience, you can horseback ride on the beach from Salinas Park.

If you are interested in wildlife and natural beauty, plan a trip over to St. Vincent Island by ferry boat for the day. Hike around the island and explore our native wildlife and foliage. About 30 miles away is the historical fishing community of Apalachicola. It's perfect for a day trip to do a little shopping, stroll along the Apalachicola River or grab some of the best seafood around! You won't be disappointed! There are so many options to do without crowds or traffic!

Wonderful get away!
My best friend and I go to St. Joe Beach every year so we already love the location. This rental home was perfect for us! Updated, clean, spacious... Check out was super easy. If the yard was fenced and they would allow pets (I didn't look to see since I wasn't bringing them this year), I could see us renting this place every year! But certainly for any of our pet-free vacations, I will be searching for this one again!! I cannot recommend this rental enough!

A Great Place to Stay
Really enjoyed this property and experience! My husband and our 6 year old had a nice four night stay. We sadly had a lot of rain during our trip but the covered area out back made up for it! The first day we loaded up the provided wagon (which is an awesome perk) but quickly learned the short walk to the beach became a lot longer with little feet…not a problem at all though, we just shifted to loading up the trunk with our beach supplies the next day and were on the sand within 3 minutes of walking out the door, driving, and unloading the car. Can’t beat that! Great property, great amenities, great price.

Nice new rental close to the beach
Clean newish rental with good reliable appliances. Nice bedroom layout with plenty of towel racks and hooks to dry your wet items. All the appliances worked wonderfully and easily. My picky family even gave the refrigerator water and ice flavor a thumbs up. I appreciated the coffee maker and plenty of ice being made in the freezer. There is a nice covered area in the back yard where they store beach gear which was incredibly valuable to use and to store our sand covered items during our stay. The location is very close to the beach. It is an easy short, flat walk down the street. Directly across the Highway is an easy beach access walkway. A few drawbacks include: The owner suite bed was incredibly hard. Being a doublewide, all of the walls where very thin but workable. What we missed the most was an outdoor water source to rinse off our feet and sandy items. A couple of maintenance items needed attention, hopefully they will be repaired soon as we made the management company aware. (Owner suite bathroom door didn't latch and 2 smoke detectors were removed and needed reinstalling.) We enjoyed our stay and would use the property again.
