About this space
Beacon Hill is a remodeled 1950s beach cottage on a quiet hilltop in the Beacon Hill community, across the street from the beach and away from neighborhoods of look-alike vacation homes. Watch dolphins from the screened front porch in the morning and Gulf sunsets in the evening.
Returning guests may remember this home as Casa Amarilla. If you’re searching for a vacation rental in Port St. Joe, FL or a place to stay near Mexico Beach, FL, this is a walk-to-the-beach base for families, fishing trip groups, and friends planning a beach vacation together.
Ocean view and screened porch
Gulf views from the front porch, with plenty of seating for rainy afternoons or after a long beach day.
Brand-new kitchen
A fully equipped, renovated kitchen. Cook a family dinner or your fresh catch.
Living Room
Second living room
Dining room - table for 12
A long farmhouse table with benches and Windsor chairs sits in the middle of the house, so the whole group can eat together a few steps from the kitchen and fireplace living room.
