1004 Ariola was the beautiful setting of this fall destination wedding! Highly recommend this location for destination weddings and family gatherings.

Overall the home is a great place to stay. Location is perfect with the view and located on the beach. Although the front bedroom did not cool. The upstairs sink was stopped up. The lights in the bedrooms would all be on or off. The beds upstairs not comfortable. Overall we would stay here again.

Outstanding location, right on the beach, very close to the water, and terrific views of the Gulf. Well maintained. Great master suite. Ample sleeping accommodations for our complement of 5 adults and 4 grandchildren with room for several more kids, and plenty of room to gather in living room/dining area and on the spacious (largely-covered) water-facing deck. Well-equipped kitchen, including a big array of pots & pans,cooking utensils, glassware & dishes. Only kitchen drawback is a single (albeit fairly large) refrigerator and no ice machine. Covered parking for 4 vehicles. We have re-booked for next year.

Staff very courteous. Very prompt. House right on the beach. One room a little warm. We brought our own small inexpensive portable A/C unit. Third time in this house so it’s not that bad to keep us from coming back. A request was placed to remedy the warmth of room. Highly recommend this house

This was our second time in this house.
It was perfect for me n my family.
Especially enjoyed the floor plan and also just to be able to walk out to water.
Convenient to the pier and not that crowded.
Hope to get back there very soon
Very easy to make reservations.

Paradise Management is so easy and professional to work with. Wish the houses had key pads instead of actual keys (so much easier for multiple people at the beach).
House was as expected.

The house was perfect for our family. We had 3 generations and the layout was just right for us. We loved the huge deck/wrap-around porch. The views were amazing! I feel sure that we will be renting this beautiful home again. We had no problems, no complaints, no was a perfect week. You can certainly tell that these owners take great care of their home.

I wanted a house for our family to enjoy that was close to the water due to the fact I was taking my mother who is 81 and far enough away from the Spring Break crowd. Bam! What a little jewel. This house was perfect for us. The location was amazing. The house itself was very spacious. Plenty of room for all of us. Kids loved the fact that they literally just had to walk out the bottom door and cross over the dunes and they were at the water. The view from the living room and/or the back deck was breath taking. The house was clean when we arrived. We were even notified to check in several hours earlier then we were told when the house was reserved. That was a plus after driving down a couple of States to get there as we were very tired. The only thing I wish this house would have had was a heated pool. Yes, when I rented the house for the week I was well aware of the fact that it did not. But...after being down there with the kids a pool would have been nice for them, especially at night and on the cool days. I was stunned that a lot of the homes around us had pools. With that said, this house had everything else we could have wanted, well stocked, great location, plenty of room. The staff with Paradise Beach Homes was amazing also. I would go back and stay with no hesitation. It was a nice get-away. Thank you to the Owner of this location and Paradise Beach Homes for helping us make some great family memories.

After losing my husband in December, my family needed this time together to commemorate his birthday. The house was lovely and the kitchen well equipped. We especially loved the spacious bathrooms. The location was convenient and the porch views were spectacular. A few minor problems that need to be addressed were the east bedrooms were not very cool, the upstairs bunk was not stable enough for us to feel safe about the kids sleeping there, the internet was not working well, and the master bed had hair in the sheets. (We simply rewashed them) We considered these minor issues and in no way Interfered with our stay. We loved that there were NO CLOCKS in the house!

We had a great stay at 1004 and hope to return next year. With that said, we did experience some AC issues. The upstairs ac unit for the loft bed room had a coolant leak. The staff at Paradise Homes had a repair crew at the house in a few hours and the unit was fixed promptly so the upstairs AC issues were resolved. The main floor bunk room does not get enough cool air so the temp in that room is consistently warmer than the rest of the house. There are several fans in the house and ceiling fans to help keep that room cool. The rest of the house was fantastic. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans etc. The property was clean and well maintained. Really enjoyed the open space and view. The evenings on the deck were just awesome! We had a great week.

The House was amazing. We could not have been happier with the spacious and covered porch. The bathrooms having double vanities came in handy with all us girls. Location was close to all the restaurants and bars. The only complaint we had is the room with all the bunk beds downstairs was very hot. So bring a fan if you get stuck in that room. But with that said we would 90% stay here again.

The location is perfect.... the house could be perfect ...if only the a/c were better! We could not use the upstairs at all due to inadequate a/c. The temperature never went below 75 at night and 78 in the day.... the kids could not sleep there. It was still a fabulous vacation but a little uncomfortable at times .. I would still recommend it !!!!!!!!!

We were very pleased with our House Rental! We tented this location for our daughters wedding. Paradise Beach Homes was more than cooperative with any info we needed. Even gave our wedding couple a beautiful frame to remember our stay. We would highly recommend this as a wedding benue. Our AC even went out the day of the wedding and they were bery prompt to send someone over immediately to repair. Thanks for wonderful memories.

The only issues we had were that there was no ice from fridge, the king master bathroom had bugs and worms coming from the drain in the shower and the air seemed to not be working the last day or so. Other than that, everything was perfect! The deck is more covered than it looks and was perfect to still be outside when it rained.

Our family of 11 rented this property because of the location to the beach and the space needed -you couldn't get any closer to the beach and everyone slept comfortably. We were happy with both. While vacationing there, we went parasailing, watched the Blue Angels perform (they flew over the beach on 3 occasions) and ate at Shaggys, Crabs, and Peg Leg Petes - All had great food. We have been taking these family vacations for 7 years and this was voted the favorite so far. WE would absolutely recommend 1004 Ariola Dr. to our friends!!

I rented this house for Spring Break. My son and several fraternity brothers came as well as a friend of mind so we could always have an adult present. The house is beautiful. It. Is very spacious and comfortable. It was a great place for several 19 -21 yr old because they could really spread out between all the bedrooms, the beautiful and large back porch and the beach right there.
We all had a wonderful time without incident.
I really liked that the house was really nice but not fancy so everyone could be themselves and not walk on eggshells. This is a perfect house for several couples with kids as well. Great experience, loved the management: they were responsible to the owners of the house while allowing us to have fun and relax

Everything about the house was perfect. The open floor plan allowed my large family to gather together while preparing meals so nobody missed a thing. The house is beautifully furnished including two large dining tables that seated 10. It's location directly on the beach was perfect. My only suggestion is to include a rocking chair for rocking the babies.

Check in was a breeze! One window was left open (perhaps needing repair) & the staff wrote the information down without interrupting our stay. Any thing we needed was in the home! When you look at this picture, it shows your home directly on the beach - IT IS! We had a WONDERFUL stay. The house had everything we needed. Definitely enough room for up to 14 people!! 2 beach chairs were even provided (which we did not use because we brought ours). The only downside?? The beach is a public beach. People will park right in front of your home and set up their chairs where you would feel yours should go. We just placed our chairs out there early and left them until early evening then brought them in. That way, we were assured a spot on the beach - at the home we rented! Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND this home!

The house was tastefully decorated and the floor plan was ideal for our family with Mom, Dad, three adult children and their significant others. You can't get any closer to the beach! Loved it!

We held our wedding reception here and it had all of the amenities we needed. Paradise Beach Homes was very attentive to our needs with the party permit and calling an electrician when the outlets for our string lights weren't working. All of our guests were telling us it was the 'best wedding ever' and the party continued the next day on the beach! The bathrooms in this home are absolutely beautiful, kitchen large enough for everyone and access to the house was very easy from all of the hotels in town. I highly recommend renting with Paradise Beach Homes and this home spcifically.

We hosted our May 2, 2015 wedding at this wonderful beach home. The weekend was perfect! 65 of our closest friends and family joined us. 13 people stayed in the house for 3 nights with us. The house is very spacious. We all had privacy while being able to gather together for dinner at the huge table or on the back porch.
The house was well maintained and featured countless pots, pans, utensils, bedding options, and more. It was much better stocked than any condo we've ever rented.
We hosted the entire wedding underneath the house. There was plenty of room, lots of electrical and water options, and beautiful views! An absolutely perfect venue for rain or shine.
We had 7 different couples staying with us and we all had a wonderful time! We would definitely recommend this home for a vacation or special event. We were even able to have our dog join us for the festivities as the home is pet friendly. You would never know though. The house was imaculate and show no signs of wear and tear.
We rented through paradise beach homes and will use them for our next trip to pensacola. The hospitality we received from the time we first scouted homes to the checkout was unbelievable. Their staff truly cares and anticipates your needs. We even received a beach bags full of goodies and a special wedding gift at check in. I cannot rave enough about the PBH service. They were simply wonderful!
Overall, we had an amazing experience!
