Perfect house in perfect location

Our family of four enjoyed everything about this property! The location could not have been better and the inclusion of the beach chairs /umbrella set along with the loungers was very convenient. We hardly needed to carry anything the short distance to the walkover. My daughter especially loved the bunk room and we all really enjoyed the private pool! Property was very clean and Sal was very easy to work with. We would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful House and Great Location

This house was by far our most favorite stay in Carillon. Super clean and beautiful house. Fully stocked with everything you need. The back covered porch over looking the pool was the best and furniture was comfy. Great walk to the beach and loved having 2 beach loungers and 2 chairs by the water. Sal was quick to answer any questions we had during our stay. Already booked it again for next year.

Footprints in the Sand

We much appreciated Sal sharing his beautiful home Footprints in the Sand for the week. The house was full of amenities that would allow for easy packing of personal items only. Very spacious as we were a party of 6 with more than enough room. Convenient beach access. We will absolutely stay here again. Owner responds quickly with descriptive instructions.

Owners thought of everything

The house was great and exactly as advertised. The house has everything a family needs to having a relaxing and enjoyable beach vacation. The owners truly thought of everything - from a well appointed kitchen to all the beach toys, bikes, beach chairs and lounges with umbrellas set up everyday. The owners were very nice to communicate with and genuinely wanted to make sure we had a great time. Highly recommend and will be going back to this house again! Carillon is great - close to all the attractions at Pier Park and without the crowds and prices of Rosemary and Seaside. Perfect family beach vacation

Great location

We loved Footprints in the Sand! The location was wonderful if you enjoy going to the beach. It was only three houses away from the beach walkover. They had two beach lounge chairs and two beach chairs by the water which were set up each day with cushions and umbrellas. There was a shed with bikes, beach toys and extra chairs for us to use. The grill by the pool worked great for the nights we ate in. The beds were very comfortable and bathrooms were beautiful! Our host was easy to contact and made sure we had everything we needed so that we had a wonderful family vacation!

Beautiful and memorable week’

We had a truly wonderful time at Footprints in the Sand. The home was clean, well supplied, and very comfortable. The location was perfect with a very short walk to beach access. Also, having the beach chair service was a nice perk! We also loved having the small private pool! We look forward to returning!

Simply Awesome

Have been to Carillon numerous times and this was by far the best! Sal and his family were great hosts and very responsive during the entire process. If we had a question they were quick to answer, which made our stay even better. The house was in great shape, with some new furniture and VERY comfy beds. The master shower is to die for! The weather was not the best for the beach, but the heated pool and available bikes made up for it. Cant say enough good things...highly recommend. Will be back!

Family Beach Trip

We had a wonderful week with our family in Carillon Beach at Footprints in the Sand. I have been to Carillon several times so it was wonderful sharing this special place with our son and his family. Our first time at Footprints in the Sand. Communication from our host was great and very responsive. The house was the perfect size for us. The kitchen is very well stocked for any kind of needs you may have. The pool was an extra plus for us and used every day. The bedrooms very comfortable for everyone. The only drawback which is no reflection of Footprints is there is several houses under construction across the street and one door over currently so there was some construction noise. We walked to the coffee shop and other eating places along with the beach store right in Carillon several times which was convenient and enjoyable. Wonderful week of creating lasting family memories!!
