The house was very nice, well organized and comfortable. It was wonderful to find a beachfront home that was just the right size for a smaller group. Moondance was well-equipped and nicely laid out. I especially enjoyed the loungers on the upper porch. So glad we spent our vacation here.
Great house, great neighborhood, great location! The property manager (Helen) is super easy to call with any questions. The owner (Jo) is so easy to talk to. I felt like I was talking to one of my longtime girlfriends the first time we talked! She answered all my questions & told me things about the area I didnât know. I highly recommend staying here! My husband & I will definitely stay here again!
Everything about this house is first class⊠Iâve stayed at Carillon Beach three times and this is the nicest home yetâŠPerfect location right on the water and has everything you could need⊠Jo, the owner and Helen the property manager couldnât have been more helpful. The six beach chairs included with the home are such a huge plus⊠Carillon is close to everything, and we couldnât say enough positive about our vacation ⊠we will definitely be back!
Great vacation! House was perfect. It was spacious and as advertised. Jo (homeowner) was fantastic. She was a great communicator and was very helpful by suggesting places to shop-eat etc. My fiancee and I had the trip of lifetime!
We absolutely loved our stay at Moondance -fantastic patios and location overlooking the ocean, comfortable bedding, and stocked kitchen with all the gadgets and gear needed for cooking! Although more towels would have been nice, it was easily overlooked with the beautiful decor. We hope to stay here again!
Weâve stayed at this house multiple times and itâs always great.
Inside and out everything is really nice. The most peaceful view from the upstairs balcony.
This is our second year staying at Moondance, we love it. The home is beautifully decorated and maintained and the beach is pristine. Jo is wonderful to work with...there isn't any other place we would rather spend spring break. Thank you for a great week!
Everything about this property exceeded our expectations.
Clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated!
It did not feel at all like a rental property.
Will definitely book here again!
My family had an amazing week at the Moondance house! It is a beautiful home in a great beach community. The location was absolutely perfect with incredible views from the porch and balcony. Restaurants and Grocery stores are just a short drive away. We loved that this area is less commercialized and we really felt like we got away on vacation! Jo was so nice and communication was great. Thank you!
Our family loves staying in this beautiful beachfront home. We just had our second vacation at Moondance and hope to go back again next year. The house is perfect for families and the gates on the stairs make it safe for small children. Having direct access to the beach and sitting in the deck to watch the sunset makes for a very relaxing vacation. Beautiful furnishings, well equipped kitchen and a short walk down the stairs to the beach chairs are just perfect. Kids love the bunk room and gives them their own space. Jo and Helen are very responsive and easy to work with on the details of scheduling everything.
This is our second weeklong stay at Moondance. We obviously love it or would not have come back. The location is perfect!! It's so close to Panama City and Rosemary/Seaside, but it's private in Carillon Beach gated community so that you aren't fighting the crowds. We love that it safe for our girls to ride bikes and play without us having to watch them every second. Gorgeous views of the beach (with beach chair service) and sunsets are unbelievable. The decor is absolutely stunning. Joe is always great to work with and Helen (the property manager) was also super nice and helpful...hope to be back again soon!!
This was our first visit to this area so didn't know what to expect. We relied on the reviews of this property to make our travel decision. So I am providing information that may help the next traveler. We were traveling during the initial re-opening of the country after covid restrictions. Beachfront location was perfect. There were 6 comfortable beach lounges set up in front of the house daily - with cushions and umbrellas. This was so perfect and easy with children. The chair service stopped by to let us know he also has boogie boards available for rent. We could let the older kids head down to the beach early and watch them from the back porch. We ate breakfast and many meals on the back porch - the table set up and view are perfection. There were other families on the beach but it was never crowded. At night you can hunt for white crabs with flashlights! The neighborhood is private and beautiful. We rented baby gear that was delivered before we arrived and picked up the day we left. The house is very well appointed with comfortable beds, fluffy bath towels, fluffy beach towels and pretty iron gates at the top of both sets of stairs. This was a huge positive for our little one. The property manager was extremely responsive. Jo also answered questions throughout our trip.
There is a cute restaurant in the neighborhood where you can grab a quick breakfast or lunch. If you are ready for more shopping and restaurants, Rosemary beach is a 5 minute drive from the house. This is perfect as the Rosemary beach area is great for shopping, riding bikes and dinner but is significantly more crowded. It was nice to go shop and then come back to our private oasis. We enjoyed several attractions on 30A - including "The Hub" and a trip to Seaside for shopping.
We highly recommend this house and location. We are hoping to return soon!
We loved everything about this stunning beachfront home in Carillon. We are a family of 5 - 2 adults and kids ages 13-23. Everyone was very comfortable and there was plenty of space to dine, play games and watch TV together.
The owner and property manager were both very friendly and helpful with one small issue that arose with the Wi-Fi (just needed a reset) and it was up and working in no time.
Weâve stayed in the area many times. Carillon is our favorite neighborhood, and this was our favorite home weâve stayed in. While itâs not huge, everything is so well thought out, including plenty of comfortable seating, space to unpack for a long stay, and really functional cabinetry. Quick walk up to the little downtown in the neighborhood for coffee or food, and Publix and Rosemary both very short drives.
We LOVED our stay at this property! The location on the beach was perfect and the neighborhood was wonderful. There were two families and 4 kids ages 8 and 10. We had plenty of room and the kids loved riding their bikes around Carillon and over to Our Little Beach Cafe to get ice cream. The beach wasn't too crowded and the house came with 6 chairs and 3 umbrellas that were set up for us to use each day. The owner of the house was very accommodating and friendly to work with!
Our group of 8 (two families) stayed at Moondance for a week. The house is beautiful as presented in the listing, well equipped with everything we needed to cook, relax, and enjoy the beach. Towels, linens, furniture, and kitchenware were all well kept, clean, and new. The beds were very comfortable, and the AC kept us cool despite the heat. Wifi was strong and let the adults work effectively and the kids play on their devices during the brief periods of summertime rain. The property manager and the home owner both were proactive and responsive to our inquiries. We had a wonderful stay, would recommend this home to others, and we will be back!
