Calle Juela 5 - Sandy Crab Horizon

Very nice home. We had a very good stay with no problems. Great location not too far to the beach. It is set up very well for the beach with chairs, beach gear, and two wagons to haul it in. The grandbabies loved the pool.

Overall, very satisfied with Sandy Crab Horizon. First time stay. Very clean and nice place, but a few improvements would have made it even better. I considered the cookware selection
& cooking skillet to be in poor condition. the blinds to the sliding glass door on the upstairs master room was missing the chain that is used to open/close the blinds & the hardware used to open/close the pocket door was broken. The a/c & all of the appliances, furniture, lighting all worked great with no issues. The extra small frig & deep freezer in the laundry was a plus, along with the "must have" beach wagon. The pool was clean and very nice, especially during those rough sea days. I love, love going to the crow's nest - great views. The office staff was great for pre-approving my check-out time, since no new arrivals were coming in during my check-out day. Thank-you Paradise Beach Homes for being part of my priceless family vacation time. I would recommend and plan to come back every year. Roger K.

We had 14 people total and the house was spacious and accommodating for all of us. It was a short walk to the beach.

Our vacation was great! The weather was phenomenal. The Gulf was crystal clear and our location ideal.
The home was completely equipped with everything we needed. We have been using Paradise Beach Homes as our beach home rental company for many years now, and this year didn't disappoint!!
The grandkids said....."This vacation is better than Disney!"
So, I think that says it all!!
We will definitely be back.

Overall the location and property were great. There was plenty of space for 6 older adults, 2 younger adults and 5 kids. The kitchen and living area were very large and there was an extra mid/small fridge and small chest freezer which can in handy. The only issue was the outdoor lights (near the pool) and pool lights didn't work so it was hard to enjoy the outdoors when the temps would cool off slightly. We have already rebooked for next year and I would anticipate the outdoor lighting to be fixed by then. Highly recommend this property.

Very nice property for our 8-person group. Plenty of living space both outside and inside. Several sleeping options made our stay even more convenient. Kitchen was well stocked with plates/bowls/glasses.

Great experience! No complaints

We enjoyed our stay at this vacation home. The beds are very comfy, kitchen is well stocked and huge, loved the amazing HUGE couch in the family room and close to the beach. We enjoyed the pool every day because it was so incredibly hot while we were there. Our only negative review is the terrible internet service which is also run to the TV services.

Well

The house was great! Very clean! The only thing that didn’t work was the ice maker but that was not a problem. It was spacious and relaxing and beautiful! We will definitely rent it again!

My wife and I and some of my team members enjoy this beautiful home for a long weekend! The master bedroom was very large and comfortable! We had several dinners at the house in the kitchen was big enough for all of us to have plenty of room! Our favorite part was waking up and walking a few steps over to the beach and enjoying the sunrise! We would highly recommend this Beautiful home to anyone coming to visit or even looking for a staycation! The management company was responsive and took good care of us

We loved our stay at Calle Juela. Unfortunately during our stay we were unable to utilize the crows nest. Also, construction on a neighboring house is really all we could complain about. House is in a great location and away from the busy part of the island but only a short trip from everything. We have several kids and the house accommodated us very well giving everyone plenty of privacy and room to escape. We were very pleased with our stay and would definitely recommend!

This home is great. With the beach a few yards away, the private pool, all of the decks, crow's nest and space inside home. Not to mention anything you would need from floats to a two seat bicycle to a beach cart to an umbrella. Had everything. Very nice and we had a great family vacation.

Manager's Response

We had a fantastic time at Pensacola Beach. The house was well appointed, spacious and clean. The pool was a very nice feature and when the heat of the day was too much we could find sanctuary in the private pool. The rooftop observation tower was very cool for looking out at the weather and the panorama, as well as the stars at night. We would definitely stay again in the future.

Manager's Response

Amazing home. Perfect for several people. We had 3 families and could have fit a few more. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals at home all week. The couch has enough seats for a small army! The pool was great and there were plenty of floats. The beach is literally less than 2 minutes from the front door. There were loads of beach toys for the kids. There is even a 2 person bike for tooling around the neighborhood. The only complaint we had was the beds in the 2 master bedrooms were extremely firm. The smaller bedroom had a foam topper which made it much more comfortable. Otherwise, we have no complaints about this home. We would definitely stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Sandy Crab Horizon in July 2019! Steps from the ocean, a few minutes from the bay and a nice sized private pool right at the house. The home was very spacious for our group of 5 adults, 6 kids. There was plenty of space to spread out in different areas yet ample space when we all wanted to be in the same room.

The home was also very nicely furnished and equipped and felt newly renovated. The inside pictures don't do it justice. It was also clean and tidy upon arrival, sand-free floors which we appreciated!

We had to call to have extra towels brought, no problem and quick response. The kitchen is well outfitted for cooking and eating at home-plenty of dishes, pots, pans, glasses, etc. Even had griddle for pancakes. Only thing lacking was crockpot and plastic containers for leftovers, no biggie. Huge pantry for storage. Extra chest freezer in laundry room which came in handy as we needed extra ice for such a large group in summertime. They provide sample sizes of dish soap, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, hand bar soap and lotion.

We had a 4 yr old with us and appreciated the gates off the main floor deck. The grill also on the main floor deck is huge and came in handy. The decks have nice furniture for eating outside or lounging in the shade.
There are covered parking spaces under the house, prob holds 4 cars, which was nice and really minimized the summer heat. Also nice indoor room to store pool/beach gear and nice, heavy duty cart to roll stuff to the beach easily.

Only negative-the twin sofa sleepers are not comfortable (per our 14 year old son, might be ok for small children). They're located in open balcony area that overlooks the den and kitchen. The master bedroom has 2 closets both large enough for a pack n play/twin air mattress. The master bathroom jaccuzi tub was amazing and nice, strong shower pressure. There were nice clothes hangers in the master closet

This place is amazing! Nice , clean , spacious and also has a private pool. The house is right by the beach and very convenient to everything . We have stayed in Pensacola many times and this one is top notch ! Check in and check out process was also easy
