Ariola 116

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. We rented it for the beach access and it did not disappoint! There were 11 adults in the house, and it was exceptionally quiet, which was a huge plus when people wake up at different times each morning. The grill was not working when we went to use it, one phone call to property management and we had a brand new grill delivered within an hour. Great experience, I would rent here again.

Beautiful, recently remodeled, home on the water in Pensacola beach. Plenty of room, all the amenities you could ask for, and Paradise Homes always make it easy check in and check out. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an outstanding spring break at 116 Ariola this year. 116 was laid out extremely well for us with the view and deck being outstanding. The kitchen was appointed with the necessities to cook and there was plenty of room for all of us to hang out. We were treated to flybys by the Blue Angels, military helicopters, dolphins, and rays swimming off the beach. Location was good with a short jaunt to Pensacola Beach restaurants and shops. Our stay was excellent!

We were hesitant about our yearly vacay due to the Corona virus, but he House was not only cleaned, it was sprayed extensively with a special non toxic plant based agent to kill any germs and viruses. The beach was sparsely populated at this particular location which made for easy social distancing. The rental company was friendly and eager to please. We loved the big porch (and the view) , and the giant couch in the LR was perfect for family snuggles and movies in the evening. I would suggest the owners put a larger window unit in the downstairs BR, as it struggled to keep it cool enough, and some non breakable glasses would definitely be an added plus but all in all we were happy with our stay.

With the current pandemic, we had a few people in our party opt out on this vacation. We only had 11 people staying in a great house that sleeps 16! Plenty of room & beds for all. Great Gulf view and easy access to the beach.

Location is perfect. I was worried proximity to condos would make the beach crowded, as we normally stay further down the beach, but it didn't. We've had many rentals in Pensacola & Navarre and are familiar with the normal wear and tear so we aren't picky. House was clean and had plenty of dishes. Main floor master only has a pedastal sink so that makes it tough on a girl to get ready, but who cares, we are at the beach! Glass sliders were a little stiff, as sand gets in them and the salt air in general takes it's toll. Not a big deal to us. My son & his wife stayed in the lower level bedroom and they complained a little about the noise & vibration of the window A/C unit. We had my daughters wedding right out on the beach behind the house & it was GORGEOUS! We placed tables on the lower level under the deck for food/drink afterwards -- of note, sand will fall from upper deck, not a good decision on our part. Rain moved in so we all ended up inside the house anyway! All in all, it's a great house and I would stay there again. Paradise Beach Homes has always treated us well and they have excellent customer service!

LOVED the location! House was large and easily accommodated our family. Property description was great so we knew in advance how many beds and space we had.

We are all for nature, but were challenged throughout the week by the protected birds nesting in the dunes over the walkway to the beach. Fight our way through the birds to get to and from the beach was a hassle but did not stop us from enjoying the beach.

I personally loved the huge deck and we spent a lot of family time there. Many of our meals were on the deck as well as early morning watching for dolphins (we were quite successful and saw them many mornings!).

Overall, loved the 5 bedrooms, the location, and the space to spread out. We would rent this house again.

The beachfront home was fabulous! A must for visitors who want to stay right on the gulf and walking distance to the center of the island were there are shops and restaurants .

From the minute we pulled into the driveway, we knew we were going to love this home for our family vacation. The outside of the home was attractive with great curb appeal...and plenty of parking. Location, location, location! This was such a wonderfully convenient location. It was private yet close to everything that we needed. We were able to enjoy golf cart rental, paddle board rental, miniature golf, and shopping. Also nearby, we enjoyed restaurants like Red Fish Blue Fish, Flounders, Casino Beach Bar & Grille, and Papa's Pizza. This home was clean,beautifully decorated, and had a great floor plan for our large extended family. The kitchen/living room area had plenty of seating for the whole family, and the view of the beach from there was AMAZING!The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen and bathrooms were more than adequate. The outdoor space was awesome as well. The decks had plenty of seating...and again that VIEW! This was the perfect space to watch sunrises and sunsets. The beach is just steps from this home and is beautiful. We would DEFINITELY stay at this home again! Everyone in the Paradise Beach Homes office was extremely friendly and helpful from reservations to check-in to check-out. They were also very quick to respond to any questions or needs that we had during our stay here. The staff at Paradise Beach Homes is excellent! From age 14 to 78, our entire family had a wonderful vacation at this home. We would highly recommend this property to all of our family and friends! We hope to be back very soon!

The house was in good shape and located in a perfect spot to be close to everything without the crowd. Will definitely stay in this house again.

We didn’t want to leave! We’ve rented a lot of houses at different beaches and this by far was the best. Everything was neat and orderly, & there was plenty of room for everyone. The view was absolutely breathtaking, and the beach was so spacious it seemed as if it was a private beach.( even though it’s not) Sure it had some minor maintenance issues, but every rental does & they responded to them promptly. I would rent this again in a heartbeat!

The views were spectacular. It was awesome having the beach pretty much to ourselves. Mona and Russell at Paradise Homes were awesome! The house has some minor flaws that need to be addressed but I didn't go there to nitpick a house. I went for the location and got more than my family deserved.

We had the most wonderful Easter week celebrating at this comfortable beachfront getaway! It is an older property but the decor is updated and beachy. It included everything you would need to relax and enjoy the beach and the location is PERFECTION!

Wonderful stay on the beach with great view. Would definitely stay again.

This house is perfect for a large group of girls! We really enjoyed the big balcony. There were a few things in the house that were broken but not the end of the world. The service reps were so nice and gave us a cute goodie bag when we checked in. We will be back!

My family enjoyed the week greatlt.

Very good overall. The house needs some updating given the rental price but the location is great.

Our stay was perfect. Children and grandchildren came for a week over New Year's holiday and the space was great for us. Plenty of bedrooms. All had bath space. Kitchen was FULLY furnished and organized. Everything worked - vacuum, coffee pot, ice maker, garage door openers, etc., and ABUNDANT hot water which matters with that many people. Garage parking for 2 cars. House was easy to child proof for 2 toddlers and very pet friendly. Love the decks and easy access to beach. Really, just steps away from the water and sand. Fantastic experience.

We absolutely loved Ariola 116. It was perfect for our size group and just a few steps until you hit the gulf and have a perfect view of the bay from the kitchen window (a cool bonus). You can hear the waves at night too!! Less than a mile to the boardwalk but far enough away that it wasn't crowded. Management was very accommodating as well. Looking forward to rent here again in a warmer month!!

This was a great family vacation. The property accommodated my family perfectly. The deck was large allowing us all to gather each evening for sunsets and music. The bedrooms allowed everyone privacy while the main room gave us a chance to all be together since the kitchen, living and dining rooms all merge as one. The two car garage gave us security to lock up our bikes, kayaks and paddle boards each day which really was a bonus.

Everything and everyone were kind, friendly and very accomidating.

The Beach was wonderful, a great place for families.

We have stayed at 116 Ariola Drive for a lot of years and love this rental. This beachfront house has great views of the Gulf from the main living space and three bedrooms, especially the upstairs bedroom, plus a large deck including a much needed covered area. The layout is nice: an open kitchen/living area with a long breakfast bar, 2 master bedrooms (with ensuite baths), the 3rd main bathroom located between two bedrooms, a secluded bedroom on the bottom floor, and a garage to store bikes and beach equipment that also has a second refrigerator! The house is one of the closest rentals within walking distance of the restaurants and shops. The property management are professional, friendly, very helpful, and respond quickly to any missing or not working amenities. The rental is also always very clean. I would recommend this property. Thank you Paradise Beach Homes for making our vacation stay great once again!

Excellent. Seven years in a row and we have already made reservations for 2017.

Thank you to Paradise Rentals for allowing us the opportunity to have our large family gather together for this Christmas weekend. The weather was ideal and the facilities were outstanding! We definitely see a gathering in one of your houses becoming a Christmas tradition for our family.

The home was great and clean. The view was fantastic. Julie at Paradise Homes was very helpful! The only thing this home lacks is a bathroom on the bottom floor. Three bedroom had to share one bath which was a little tough at times.

Our stay was short but memorable. It's a quite neighborhood with beach access. What more could you ask for? I will definitely back.

Outstanding

we absolutely loved the house - the location, the décor, all of it!

House was perfect for our group of 10. Clean and comfortable. Walking distance to anywhere you would want to go. Sitting on the porch with a cocktail in the evening with family and friends enjoying the beautiful view and the sounds of the ocean.........nothing better.

Our 6th year here...enough said.

Fabulous location. Great beaches and magnificent views of the gulf of Mexico.

We arrived on Thursday for a Saturday wedding and our first impression was WOW!. The place was beautiful and filled all our needs for my daughters wedding.

Loved the place. Only 2 problems 1. 2 of the eyes on the stove do not work, it made cooking hard for so many people 2. Not enough forks for 16 people, we had to go out to buy more.

This house was wonderful! Right on the beach so the view was nothing short of amazing. There is plenty of room inside so our group of 15 (12 adults and 3 children) never felt crowded. We enjoyed every day of our stay and hated to leave. The only thing missing in this house is a bathroom on the lowest level. Not a big deal but would have made it more convenient. A big plus for some of the young adults in our group was it is close enough to walk to a variety of activities and restaurants. Our stay was perfect and this house will be our first choice if we have a large group on our next visit!

We had a great stay at this lovely beach house. It met all our expectations and then some. We highly recommend a stay here. It's clean, quiet, waterfront, spacious, and pet friendly. Everything was beautifully clean and in order for our arrival, and the business office is very courteous and professional. The location can't be beat....you'll see. Z

We loved the place from the minute we walked in. The house was very up to date and has plenty of bed for sleeping big groups. The views are beautiful from the top 2 floors and the deck is huge! I would definitely try to rent this house again if I were planning another trip in the area. Great location also. Thank yall!

Rest and Relax was our main motivations for staying at this beach home for our 5th year running.

Fabulous home to relax and enjoy the beautiful panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico called the Emerald coast.

This is our 4th year at this home. We love it. We have already reserved our 2015 dates. Highly recommend.
