    A Wise Way



    The Space:

    This Gulf-front home is well equipped and ready to host your annual vacation with the family (dogs included)! The deck offers panoramic views across the water, and you can admire the vista from the large sliding glass doors off the living room. The private boardwalk takes you down to the beach where shelling, fishing, and crabbing are abundant, as are sightings of dolphins, eagles, and other wildlife!



    What's nearby:

    Kayaking, fishing, and golfing are popular activities here, and must-see attractions include the St. Joseph Bay State Buffer Reserve Center (five miles away) for hiking, biking, horseback riding, and bird watching. You'll also be 11 miles south of the Cape San Blas Lighthouse, which offers bay views from the top and a gift shop inside.



    Things to know:

    This home is next to the three-bedroom As Pelicans Pass (the two do not share any amenities), creating an ideal set-up if you're traveling with another family, extended relatives, or a larger group of friends

Great getaway

Perfect for our small family, plenty of space for a family of 3-6. Unfortunately the washer was out of balance during our stay.Quiet beach with plenty of privacy. Would love to stay here again.

Awesome Beach House

We had a great time at the beach the week after Christmas! Plenty of room for our group of four adults and two dogs. Not sure who liked the beach more…We had not stayed on that part of 30A before and will definitely stay again as the beach is beautiful and very pet friendly…and 5 minutes from The Raw Bar! The house is great and very well stocked! Don’t let the pictures of an “older” house discourage you from renting this one.

The waves of St Joe's

This was an absolute marvelous stay, having access right out to the beach could not have been better. The house was great and served us well, but is well worn and could use some basic feature updates. We would stay again but I'd try to negotiate a better rate.

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at A Wise Way. The location is perfect—right on the beach, close to Cape San Blas, stores, and downtown Port St. Joe. The house was very comfortable, and we appreciated meeting the owner’s grandson next door, who kindly offered to help if needed. We loved the peaceful days on the beach with no crowds. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay and would stay again. The master bath isn't private to the master bedroom - the door to the master bath is just outside the door to the master bedroom, so bring a robe.

Delightful

Well appointed, comfortable and pet friendly. The beds were perfect for us. We enjoyed the one floor, only stairs are to the front door. Laundry room down stairs where car is parked, no access from inside the house, but that is ok. Shower outside and boardwalk to the beach was just a very short walk. Will stay again.

Amazing place!

We loved the place, views and walks on the beach. We only had one real issue, the door code they emailed us didn't work and we had to call to get another one that did. We never found the thermostat to change the temperature but didn't need it in November. We hope to come back again.

We loved the location and access to the beach. Cleanliness not up to standard though.

While we liked the property, it needs a through deep cleaning. Dusty walls, fans and light fixtures. Place could use some TLC with updated hardware for doors and bathroom showers.

Great Location, Excellent Beach

Overall we had a great stay, location is very quiet and private. Couldn't ask for a better location including the deck, parking, and beach. House is in decent shape, could use some updates and shows some wear and tear. Good set-up, well stocked, all appliances worked as they should. Had no problems with the communication or check in and this is much appreciated. Did not rate the cleanliness great and this is due to we had tiny ants coming in on the kitchen counter and had to kill 2 very large roaches so house is obviously due to be sprayed. It is a Florida beach house so some pests can be tolerated but for the price we paid to rent this house, I would not expect us to have to deal with this. Other than that the house was cleaned well upon arrival.
