Excellent vacation
Loved this vacation home. It was clean when we got there, had plenty of “things” to do but also had the beach pretty much all to ourselves. We had a great time. The owners and property manager with very helpful, friendly and accommodating. We would love to visit again. Port St Joe is a nice little town free from the hustle of the “party” towns.

Two Palms review
Great home right on the beach. Wonderful for families with children and/or dogs. Owner and property manager are both very accessible and helpful. On the second day of our stay, one of the air conditioning units broke. A new unit was installed the SAME day, and the property manager stayed till it was confirmed that everything was working. We had such a fun week with our children and grandchildren!

Great family house
The location of this Port St. Joe beach house simply cannot be beat. Steps to the sand, a beautiful beach with a very private feel. The house has everything you need for a comfortable getaway. We loved the screened porches with ample seating, and we took advantage of many of the beach amenities, especially the paddle boards and beach chairs. Though we didn’t use the hot tub, it was spacious and clean. The house offers easy indoor/outdoor living and really is perfect for a large family group. The house owner and the local house manager went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

It’s about the view!
This place had a lovely view and the boardwalk and beach were top notch! The beach was quiet and the water was calm and perfect for kids. The neighborhood felt safe. The local town was very close. 8 minutes or so which offered grocery stores, many restaurants and boutiques. The house was large and spacious and the back deck was well equipped with many sturdy chairs tall enough to see the ocean with no obstruction of a banister. The owners were easy to communicate with and graceful.

We had an amazing time at Two Palms. It was a great house! Had all the accommodations we could ask for. The screened porches were perfect when the weather was not so good. The beach was tranquil with very few people around. The hosts were very informative and Jim was great with all the information about the house.

Two Palms is a great house right on the beach with large living areas and many extras! Our family of 11 was very happy with the house size, the porches, the hot tub and all the extras it offered! We used the kayaks, paddle boards, bikes, and games! Would definitely recommend this beautiful house!

Excellent beachfront home in great location
We stayed at Two Palms for the Thanksgiving week. Everything was wonderful and the house had everything we needed and more. We had other family memebers who stayed in other houses and Two Palms was the favorite. There was plenty of room to entertain and visit. If you are looking for a house in a beautiful location you should consider this home!

Quiet and peaceful with a view!
The Two-Palms Villa was a nice getaway for our family. Peter, the owner, was very informative prior to our arrival. We had 7!adults, one child, and two dogs and had plenty of room inside and out. Everyone enjoyed the house and the beach. The area is perfect for a quiet and peaceful vacation from the hustle and bustle of the typical tourist area that you find west of Port St. Joe. The proximity to money creek/bayou does create brackish water at times but no one really cared. They all want to go back next year.

Peace and Tranquility
If you are looking for a place to get away from it all, Two Palms is the place. Jim, the house manager, greeted us upon our arrival and even helped us with our luggages. He was very courteous and informative. The kitchen was one of the best well stocked kitchen we've seen in a rental, and other than a quick run to a nearby Piggly Wiggly for groceries, the house had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the linens were of good quality. There were several high quality beach chairs enough for a large family. To our delight, we saw several pods of dolphins on our second day, and one even swam next to a kayak we had taken out. We learned that Jim also works at a wine store not far from Two Palms, so if you enjoy good wine, we are certain Jim can help you with that too. The beach felt as if we owned it since we were the only ones on the beach at times, and we savored the solitude. It was rejuvenating. The hospitality extended by the Burns and Jim is the best we've experienced in VRBO. Peace and Tranquility were what we wanted out of this vacation, and Two Palms did not disappoint.

10th Anniversary in Nature's Bliss
We spent our 10th Anniversary week at Two Palms with our loveable mutt for a much-needed getaway. It was an awesome trip and so relaxing! When we weren't beach combing or exploring the area, we spent time chilling on the porches (two of which are screened-in to prevent even the no-seums from getting in). It was really nice to have the master bedroom doors open to the porch to hear the sounds of the ocean. All of the porches, decks and below the house were well furnished with tables, Adirondack chairs and lifeguard chairs. The sofas and beds were quite comfy, the kitchen was well-equiped and there was lots of seating for meals. Our very favorite feature was the hot tub! We made use of it most everyday and enjoyed a good night's sleep! Since it was still a little early in the season and fairly cool at night along with a rough surf, we were not able to use the kayaks and paddle boards, but we did play a few rounds of shuffleboard! We had a great evening on the beach by a bonfire (it was on my bucket list) watching the sun go down and then sitting underneath a canopy of stars. We ventured into Port St. Joe for a delicious breakfast at Sister's Bistro and for our Anniversary dinner at Krazyfush (also delish) and watched the sunset off of Cape San Blas. We also had an awesome lunch (baked oysters with parmesan and garlic butter and gumbo) at the Indian Pass Rawbar! It's truly a unique place that must be experienced on your visit! Besides checking out Indian Pass (we hope to go to St. Vincent Island next time) and Cape San Blas Peninsula State Park, we drove to Appalachiacola and St. George Island State Park (beautiful dunes). The scenery was just gorgeous on the drive and the towns were really cozy. We finished the day with a late lunch at the Half Shell Dockside where I got some great shots of various birds and boats that passed by! Lastly, at Two Palms, nature was out in full force with not only various shore birds and Money Bayou full of blue crabs, but a pair of bald eagles, porpoises frolicking in the surf and a pair of deer that ran by the house early one morning and walked right past us on our last evening there as we sat in the boardwalk watching the sunset. We loved the mostly-deserted beach! The owners, Peter and Lydia were very responsive and helpful and their property manager, Jim was very helpful as well and met us at Two Palms and made sure we were set, called to check-in mid week and stopped by on checkout! Great Trip!
