We ask that you kindly respect our maximum occupancy requirement. Please send us a message and we will update your reservation.

If Horizon South is fixing outdoor recreation lighting, hours are from 9am to Sundown. ✔️ Check-in is any time after 3pm and check-out by 10am. While we try to go above and beyond to accommodate our guests, we cannot offer early check-ins or late departures. This is to allow our cleaning crew ample time to make sure your home is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before and after your stay. ✔️ We understand that accidents happen. If you break or damage something, please let us know as soon as possible so we can arrange for its replacement or repair. ✔️ Must be 21 or older to rent this home. ✔️ This property is in a tropical & humid location.

Tammy was an awesome host! Great communication! Her place was clean and comfortable. We had a great time on our trip and having a great place to stay made it even better. Thank you Tammy. We will be back next year. Smooches Michael & Toyia Minor.

Excellent rental and host! A rare find! Everything works and is very user-friendly. Clean and decorated beautifully. There were plenty of extras (tp, trash bags, coffee pods, sugar, salt/pepper, etc) that most rentals don’t provide. Super comfortable bed! Perfect setup for 2-4 people! Host very quick to respond whenever I had a question. Wonderful stay!

Great place to stay. I definitely recommend the home and Tammy. She was a delight to have and was there if any questions needed. We did not have to ask for much because she already sent a message on things we may have needed while staying there.

Tammy’s residence was amazing. My partner and I went down for a Jazz concert for the weekend, the residence was close in proximity. The residence is very close to restaurants and shops. Also if you like shopping Destin, FL is about two hours or less away. The home is absolutely amazing, close to the beach, the bed is super comfortable. We didn’t really didn’t sit out on the patio but did notice a few lizards out there. The beach chairs and the towels were a great addition. The only minor issue was the water pressure in the shower. Overall it was a great stay. Highly Recommended!! S/N: Enjoy the fireplace 😉

Great location! Short walk to the beach! Plenty of pools for the kids and a great environment. Plenty of security during Spring Break checking on everyone and made sure all guest had wristbands on. Highly recommend!

After checking into our original spring break destination and being highly disappointed, I found Tammy’s place. She responded within minutes and we were able to check in immediately. The condo was extremely comfortable and made for a very relaxing vacation when we weren’t out exploring. It was super clean, stocked with coffee and ice (two necessities) and the most comfortable pillows and bed! It was nice finding tennis rackets and tennis balls too! Tammy was extremely friendly and proactive. Highly recommend!

Tammy super is super understanding, and will work with you. She let us check in our air bnb at 3:30 am in the morning. The air bnb was nice and clean, we will definitely book with Tammy again on our next trip to PCB

Tammy was amazing! The place was perfect and exactly as described. It was my wife, 4 year old daughter and I for a long weekend and it was perfect! She had everything you need for the beach and the cart to haul it with. My wife cooked two meals and said everything needed was there. The pools were amazing and I even got in a little shuffleboard. There is security constantly rolling around which made us feel very safe. Easy to get to the beach and a Winn Dixie down the block. Clear instructions throughout the home and a map with where everything is in the community. Everything was super close and easy to walk to with the exception of the trash facility which was far, far away and that’s how I like it. I am a fan of being on the beach with the balcony overlooking the water and was hesitant on not getting that this time. Do not worry if you’re like me and don’t overthink it. Get this place instead. Forget the crowds and waiting for the elevator. Get Tammy’s place, relax and be happier!!
