Perfect location, right on the beach and steps away from the ocean! The second floor deck is very large, with large covered portion providing excellent shade, with beautiful beach views from the deck and pool.
The house was amazing! Very spacious with large bedrooms and en-suite private bathrooms. Two separate living areas and a large game room kept everyone entertained.
The amenities exceeded our expectations—with two washer and dryers and 3 full size refrigerators. The kitchen was well stocked and met all of our needs for cooking daily.
The house is beautifully appointed with comfortable furniture and decorations. The house was impeccably clean and very well maintained.
Amanda, the owner, was excellent to communicate with before and during our stay.
We can’t wait to return for another great family beach vacation!” read less

This was not our first visit to this home, and we found the Tiki Bar our favorite hang out during this visit.
You’ve got easy access to the beach and for those who aren’t into sand in your shorts, the pool lets you enjoy the best of both worlds while swimming.
There is nothing you need while staying here. The kitchen is fully stocked with more than enough items to cook with & eat on.
The owners are quick to respond if you have questions and to provide recommendations for anything from photographers, restaurants and “out of the box” ideas for adventure.
I can’t express how much we love coming to Make Your Mark as it provides enough room for our large extended family to enjoy being together without being right on top of one another.

My sister, Christina McRay, found your gulf front home online, and our entire family eagerly anticipated the past week together for many months. Your house did not disappoint. We have been going on annual family vacations whenever we have the means and the opportunity, for 25 years. In all the years, your home is by far the best we’ve stayed in. The scenic location, the well stocked kitchen, the little touches from the gift bags, to having HVAC come as soon as you thought there might be an issue…well, it just means so very much. Vacation is a big splurge for us, and you and “Make Your Mark” made it truly memorable. Pictures do not do your beach front home justice. When we passed through the fence and came around the corner to that gulf breeze and breathtaking view, we knew we were in for a very special treat. So many happy memories were made! I can’t thank you enough for sharing your blessing with us. We are so grateful we were able to spend that time together in paradise. My family and I are already counting down the days until we can gather at your vacation home again. read less

The home was cozy, beautifully decorated also so many amenities to help make our stay more enjoyable (so many kitchen utilities, pool & beach toys, shower gels & lotions, tv’s with multiple apps, elevator, bar I could go on and on!). The comfort of plenty of room for the whole family. The game room in the garage with all kinds of stuff to occupy kids after being in the pool all day! After the year we all had it was truly a blessing being able to all be together, enjoy company and RELAX in this beautiful home! You were quick to answer if we had any questions or needs (not that we needed anything). Truly thankful!! Have a blessed day. read less

We had 12 adults, 12 kids and 2 infants stay for a week in June 2023. We came from more than five states and wanted a place for our family reunion. This checked every box, and was absolutely wonderful! Amanda took care of us from the very beginning. She answered every question we had and was quick to respond. First off, the location was perfect. Truly beach front and walk out to the sand any time you wanted to! We enjoyed being minutes from several grocery stores so we could cook in the house all week. We also enjoyed mini golf and the ice cream shop just down the road. We loved the sand and the waves, and the walk out convenience to the beach can't be beat! We had babies napping and needed this seamless access. Showers to wash off your feet and a pool that was elevated on the second level so your sight line goes directly out to the ocean. The water was clear and beautiful. Some strong waves when we were there, but it didn't ruin our stay. What made us decide on this house over any other was the fact that every single bedroom had a KING bed and an adjacent bathroom. Six bedrooms with connected bathrooms! Just perfect! This was a MUST for us, as we wanted every one of our children and their spouse to feel the luxury of having their own space. We utilized the grill, washing machines, refrigerators, pool table, TVs, outdoor swings, and game room several times. Amanda went the extra mile to provide a pack-n-play, crib and high chairs for our young ones. We loved the home decor and it was so comfortable and clean. We felt at home the entire time. We enjoyed being under one roof and every level had two bedrooms. Quiet dark rooms downstairs, easy access rooms on the main floor, and the media, kids room, and two rooms upstairs with the best views! The kids loved the big bunk room and media room with another bathroom. They felt so grown up and tons of kids fit in those beds! So much room to spread out. Most of all, we had a perfect spot to play games and make memories together. We loved every minute! Thank you! read less

This was our second year in a row and we have already booked next year. The property is very well maintained and has all the “bells and whistles “. Ownership is very accessible and responds timely to all communication. Private beach access, a pool , immaculate house - it is hands down our favorite family vacation spot. read less

Plenty of room for everyone to have their space, or be all together. Furnishings are impeccable and kitchen has all you could want for meals and snacks. We loved the covered outdoor area by pool for relaxing and getting some shade after a day on the beach and in the pool. Great game spaces in basement and upstairs for kids. Our grands adored the bunk room and living space outside of it where they could watch movies or play games. The beach is pristine and water crystal clear. We plan to come back many more times! The owners/hosts are wonderful to work with and very responsive. read less

There is plenty of room for everyone and the main living area and pool deck is outstanding. Cribs were available for the little ones. I recommend the add on elevator to assist with arrival and departure matters. Although there were several red flag days, we felt very safe and noticed beach safety personnel on land, sea and air informing us of beach conditions. The swings and hammock, which were not there in 2021, were enjoyed by all, as was the family cocktail party at the Tiki bar. Any needed communications with the owner were handled immediately and effectively via text message or email. On the last day, my spouse dropped a pearl earring on the floor. We looked and looked for it to no avail. We informed Amanda and her people found it the next day and will return to us via mail. Outstanding Service! We plan to return.
