Hands down one of the nicest vacation rentals we've stayed at. The location was perfect. Right on the canal with kayaks to explore and just around the corner was this beautiful quiet beach. The home was just excellent all around. Stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of towels, outdoor shower to (rinse off that sand haha) great seating areas inside and on the screened porch. We just really enjoyed our time here. Our host Heidi was super communicative as well. Highly recommend.
We loved our week at Alligator Point! The house was spotless and was also extremely comfy. We really loved spending time on the porch. The elevator was also an added plus as my parents visited with us (ages 70 plus). Heidi has thought of every detail with this vacation home. You wonât be disappointed in booking with her!
Great location, walking distance to the beach public access. Fished in the canal off the pier, lots of room underneath the house for entertaining. Equipped with all the things you need for outdoor fun. House has two kayaks available, ping-pong, table, beach chairs, and wagon. Fully equipped kitchen, plenty of towels, and a large screened in porch. Definitely one of our favorites!
Happy Hours was an amazing place to stay! The elevator was super helpful for our mother who uses a walker and with loading and unloading luggage and groceries. The screened in patio was our favorite place to hang out, very serene surroundings! The home itself was spacious, clean, and very cozy!! Well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. If we're ever in the area again, we'd 100% want to book Happy Hours again!
We had a very nice time and the house was very nicely furnished including the kitchen
It rained a couple of times (Florida) but the back porch was great. Hope to return soon
Heidi, our host, was an absolute gem throughout the entire process. She was so friendly, prompt and proactiveâgreat communication skills! The house was clean, well organized and exactly as pictured. The furniture and rooms are thoughtfully arranged to accommodate family time and the views from the upstairs porch are great. The first floor amenities like games under the house were also a cute and thoughtful touch. Ovrerall a wonderful house and a wonderful stay. Highly recommend!.
If you are looking for a place to connect with family in a quiet neighborhood but still be close to day-tripping the Big Bend attractions look no further. The house is beautifully decorated- has a fantastic layout and you canât say enough about the large screened in porch to sip a cocktail and play some cards with the fam. It was a great experience all around- from the property to the hosts!
My family and friends had a wonderful, relaxing stay ! Beautifully decorated and well appointed with everything we needed . Fantastic screened in porch ! Highly recommend!

This vacation home was fantastic. It was very well equipped with everything you could us for a relaxing stay. The homeowner was great ti work with and extremely patient with the million questions I asked as I had not been to the area. The screens porch was the perfect place to spend the day with beautiful views. The kayaks were a big hit with the kids. We definitely look forward ti renting this home again!!
We booked a last minute coastal getaway and had so many Happy Hours at Happy Hours! It looks super cute online, but even better in person! The huge back porch was perfect sipping coffee and wine. I felt safe allowing our kids to walk to the beach - the walk is maybe 5 minutes. I'm really particular about cleanliness - it was really clean! It is clear the sellers put a lot of thought and pride into their home. We look forward to returning!
Upon walking in, the home looks just like a picture from a magazine. It is so beautiful and clean with ALL the comforts of home. If there was anything not at my fingertips I cannot imagine what it would have been. Heidi has TRULY thought of EVERYTHING. She stayed in contact to ensure our expectations were met. I look forward to returning this wonderful property!
We've been going to Panacea for 20 years & this was our first time actually staying on Alligator point. We always just drive in to the beach, but OMG this was the WAY to do it. Walking down to the beach in the morning with coffee or at night with some cocktails was SO fun. It was such an adorable house -- perfect shade on the dock, quick walk to the beach (5 min max) & loads of space to spread out! I really can't say enough about the house & all the things there are to do! They've thought of everything--kayaks, games, porch swing, beach towels! This is our family's new favorite spot. For sure. thanks so much for sharing this amazing find with us:)
What an amazing property, we will be back! The home is everything we could have hoped for and more. The elevator made unpacking and packing so easy. The home is very clean and has everything you need and kid friendly. The owner is wonderful, and easy to get ahold of. The kids had the best time on the kayaks and fishing off the dock.
Murray and Heidi both grew up in the Florida Panhandle fishing the Gulf Coast. We enjoy boating, fishing, spearfishing, scalloping and any other activities associated with the coast. We have two children whom we are passing on our love and respect for the outdoors. We fell in love with Alligator Point over ten years ago and always dreamed of owning a home. We are very blessed and happy to share our little piece of paradise with you!
Alligator Point offers beach access and easy to navigate boating and fishing without the crowds. With the constant growth of other coastal towns, we have found Alligator Point a hidden gem to getaway from the masses. It truly is the last of the Forgotten Coast!
