Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Apalachicola Bay

We were especially impressed with the well stocked kitchen. Had everything we needed if we wanted to cook in and watch the sunsets. The beach chairs and towels were good quality and not the cheap like ones you find some places. Nice large living room and kitchen area to gather. Big tvs for watching NCAA softball! We enjoyed eating breakfast and dinners outdoors on the large picnic table on the deck. Great view, nice beach. Maria couldn’t help the seaweed that washed in but she voluntarily sent someone over to try to clean it up. The outdoor shower and toilet were especially convenient. Pool clean and well maintained. We had a great time. As far as price it was expensive but we had great amenities and the elevator was essential for my husband’s 89 year old mom who wanted another beach trip! Thanks for being so responsive Maria to anything we needed.

If you’re looking for a quiet beach getaway, this is absolutely the place to stay! Loved the area, lots of yummy food, peaceful/not crowded beach, plenty of space for all the family. The host was kind and quick to respond plus his guide was helpful throughout our stay. We didn’t have any issues with the house and hope to visit again in the future. Lovely vacation for myself, my sister and her child, my elderly mother, and my pup!! Also, the outdoor shower was fantastic in helping keep sand out of the house.

This was the most beautiful and serene home I’ve EVER rented on this platform. Kristie’s place had everything you could possibly need during your stay and I love to smell a clean house🥰 The house was spotless! Bed linen and towels were ample and CLEAN! You will see wildlife which is normal in the area and we loved the dolphins that appeared in the lake. Kayaks available and my Marine got a great workout 😂The resort style pool did not disappoint and she also had floats. With the installed fans and canopy you will stay cool. I’m already looking to rebook! If you’re interested in true relaxation, look no further and book now😍🎉🎉

I can’t begin to describe what an amazing beach house this was. It went above and beyond my expectations. I felt right at home as if it was my own. The distance to the beach was perfect. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. I was able to take my dog for a few mile long walks around the neighborhood. The sunsets are beautiful as well as the early morning breeze that blows through the screened in porch. The swing on the porch was big enough to sleep on. And if you are lucky you might even get to hear, see and feel the jets fly over heading towards or away from the near by Air Force base. But don’t worry you would hardly know the base was there unless you knew ahead of time. There are many restaurants and a cute little downtown. There is a lighthouse in town and even a Sea Turtle Center. I would definitely recommend Lourdes’ Pink Door Vacay and cannot wait to go there again soon.

This is the 2nd year that we stayed at The Spicy Pelican and we throughly enjoyed it. The balconies are superb and spacious. The house was clean and ready for us. Especially nice is that the owners have a large pantry off the kitchen in which there are spices, olive oil, and many things that might have been forgotten while packing. All I can say is that you cannot go wrong with The Spicy Pelican. It’s not right on the beach but it is so close that it really doesn’t matter. 5 star review!!

We had an amazing time! A bunch of teachers looking for rest and relaxation with our pups! We loved the calm private beach in the residence and the usage of the golf cart made it so easy to get around! The pool was amazing! There are beautiful beaches with waves close by but having a peaceful calm beach not packed with people was right up our alley! The beds were super comfortable and we could not have had a better stay! We hope to be back for a longer time next year!

This luxury rental has it all!! We will be back to visit soon. The house is amazing. It was very clean both inside & outside the home. I am ocd when it comes to inspecting a rental for a stay for myself and my family. The beds were perfect with luxurious sheets and pillows. The towels for the shower were impressively large for a bath towel and you didn’t have to look hard to find more. There’s a grill that we used for a quick hamburger cookout for lunch one day. You are minutes from the island and close to all the fun things in Eastpoint & Apalachicola. There is so much rich history in the area like the Orman House & botanical garden we got to visit this trip because the house was so close. The host is a wealth of knowledge and gave us great recommendations that were spot on. They’ve also got a great binder in the front room with brochures for a great charter & all the places around you. I can’t say enough good things by about this place. Loved it & was sad to leave.

We had the best time at Michelle’s place! Not only was Saint George Island beautiful, but her house was perfect for us and our best four legged friend 🐶 Michelle was very communicative and responsive during our entire stay, which is always reassuring when away on vacation and staying in someone else’s home. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting SGI ❤️

This place is absolutely a five-star stay! They’ve thought of everything—beach towels, a fully stocked kitchen, and cozy touches that make it feel like home. It was perfect for my husband, me, and our two daughters. The walk to the beach was so easy, and the whole place was warm and welcoming. Port St. Joe is a wonderful spot if you want to avoid the crowds—everyone here was so friendly. It was our first visit, but we will definitely be back and rent here again!

This place truly was perfect for a family vacation! Michelle is a wonderful host and her home is beautiful, clean and comfortable inside and out. If you’re looking for a private but close to everything place, this is it. Michelle was quick to respond and she took time to check in to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you Michelle for helping to make our time a great one!

We had a few minor issues with the outside lights and pool light not working. Shellie was very responsive. The outside trash from previous guest wasn't picked up by garbage service until we had been there 3 days. We did mention it. The home is older and could use some updates but it was still a nice place to stay with lots of room for the eight of us. The location is good, pool is nice, loved the screened porches, plenty of pots, pans and dishes, plenty of seating in the living room. Overall, it was good stay and we would be happy to stay again.

My family are returned guest. This home feels like our home away from home! We love the area because it is quiet, not overly crowded, and not commercialized! Beautiful beach that allows you to have your pets vacation with you! You're allowed to have golf carts on the beach which is a great feature. Saved us numerous trips back and forth to set up for our beach day.

This home was one of the best vacations we have taken as a family. Beautiful view of the bay especially in the mornings and evenings. It was breathtakingly peaceful! We had several children so the pool area was perfect for the littles especially since it is screened in. The older kids really enjoyed fishing off the kayaks and playing on the private beach! We even saw a dolphin. This home has EVERYTHING you need. Really all we needed to pack was clothes. The home was lovely and well kept. We are already planning a second trip! ♥️

We truly enjoyed our stay at Kate’s home. The house is incredibly spacious, has fantastic ocean views, and is a very quick walk to the beach. It was well-stocked with everything we needed, and Kate was very helpful when we reached out with questions. We can't wait to stay again!

Really nice place. Very responsive. The pool and bay are walkable. I did it a few times. I love to walk. It’s a 7 minute walk. My grandson rode one of the bikes. Very family friendly. Was my first time to Florida and it was very pleasant experience. Highly recommend

Rosie was a great host. She was very responsive to text and also had concern for us traveling late at night and even wanted to be notified when we arrived. It did not matter what time. She also checked in to make sure that we were having a good time And that everything was in order. As we checked out, she wished us safe travels and said we were welcome to come back anytime which we definitely will.

If you are looking for a reset and to connect with nature, in a pristine place of thoughtful decor and coziness, this is the place. You don’t get more beach than this! You are surrounded by nature 360* Jill and Paul are phenomenal hosts who go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful stay. From the clean home, to the amazing mattress, for a restful night sleep, the rain shower heads to wash the day away, and the thoughtful wine and chocolates, you will not be disappointed. You can always tell when someone cares about their home, and ensuring guests are welcome and cozy. I am very thankful for the opportunity to explore Cafe San Blas, and all the lovely recommendations that Jill and Paul offered. I would love to come back as this is an amazing experience. Peace, tranquility, nature, and great hosts. Thank you Jill and Paul!

we were passing through and on a whim decided to stop near Mexico Beach. This property showed up and fit everything we needed, especially pet friendly and not charging extra for our 2 fur babies traveling with us. Even a yard out back for them to roam. Renee responded almost immediately to any question I had, and was an amazing host! If ever in the are a again, we will definitely stay again!

I stayed at this rental home for 4 days, and it was a great experience. The house was very accommodating and spacious, offering plenty of room to relax and feel comfortable. It’s perfectly located in the Cape and within walking distance to the beach, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Communication with the host was excellent—very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient getaway.

This is a beautiful house to stay in! It’s slightly more closer to other houses than we’re used to, but our neighbors were pleasant! The kitchen was spacious and we made so many good meals in it! There is plenty of space in the house to spread out if you start to get annoyed with your family! The shoreline is steps from the house, and there is only about a ten foot difference between high tide and low tide with a huge sandbar right in front of that stretch of the beach. The drive to groceries or restaurants isn’t far, especially compared to St. George Island. Choose this place for your next stay!

We loved our stay at Sunflower 1! The beachfront location was perfect and had all the amenities for us and our pup to feel right at home.

This is one of the most well appointed Airbnb homes we have rented. They have thought of every detail. It feels like a real home and not a sparsely decorated rental. It’s a short walk to all of the restaurants in downtown Port St Joe and has a beautiful view of the bay sunsets from the front porch. We brought our pup and she had a blast running around in the fenced back yard. The best part of this rental was the host. We had an issue with the AC that was beyond their control and the host went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Would absolutely stay here again!

This is one of the loveliest vacation rentals we've stayed at over our years of traveling. With our kids grown now, taking trips - just the two of us - is going to be more common and this was perfect for my wife and I but could have easily accommodated the 4 guest limit. The home is cozy yet spacious and has everything you'd need for a trip to the area. One thing we loved particularly was how it was nestled in a quiet, small neighborhood that made it the perfect place to come after a long, busy day of activities. And it was well kept up with nice touches that made it feel like home-away-from-home. Highly recommended if you coming to the area!! Thank you Allison and Kyle for a fantastic stay and making this a trip a great memory for us.

Nicole’s place was very nice! Very clean and well appointed. We had everything that we needed to make meals and have a great stay. The pool is nice and the beach is just a short walk or drive away. Great Vacation!
