Fun in the Sun is in a good location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: For the two of us, this was a great property. The manager was very helpful and quickly helped with any question or need. The only recommendation for owners would be to put a shade or black out curtain on the glass backdoor.

A little slice of heaven

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time to Carillon Beach, and we were thoroughly impressed with this little gated beach community. Everyone was so friendly and respectful. I loved how easy it was to get to the beach, and each of the pools were amazing. We brought our 9 yr old daughter, and each day she had nice kids to play with. The house itself was quaint and very efficient. The appliances were updated and in nice condition. The neighbors next door were so kind and welcoming.

Couldn't have asked for anything more!!!

This vacation was exceptional for our family, and everything from booking the rental to checking out was perfect! Our property manager, Karen, went above and beyond to accommodate us. Her first phone call was the same day I booked our rental. She was very thorough regarding the rental process, details of our rental home, and recommendations for golf cart rentals. We scheduled a grocery delivery we thought we might miss due to traffic, and she offered to take care of it without hesitation. She also hand-delivered a broom to our house when we couldn't find one. The house was the perfect size for our family and was spectacularly clean when we arrived. It was stocked with everything needed for the beach and more! We will be booking again!!

Close to pool and beach!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 4th time staying in Carillon and first time at Fun in the Sun. The house was great for our small family of 4. Cute kitchen with everything you need. Love the proximity to one of the pools and the beach! If I could improve upon something it would be to add a shade on the back door for privacy since the house is right along side a busy road. The mattresses are hard/firm. I ended up sleeping on the couch. Would not recommend for older couples. My mom is 69 and she kept missing the last step of the stairs causing her to fall. The stairs are steep! Overall a great experience.

It was our first time to visit Carillon, but we are excited to visit again in the future! Karen and Rachel were easy to communicate with and set us up for an outstanding weekend! Highly recommend this property!!

Very close to the beach and pool

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The staff was extremely helpful and did everything and more to help make our stay an incredible one. The beach is just a couple hundred feet away as well as the pool. I like that it is a gated community and peaceful. We were obsessed with Our Little Beach Cafe! The food was very good! The promenade and other surroundings were pretty, too. The house was cozy and perfect for our family of three. We loved having reserved beach chairs and the beach was not crowded. Highly recommend!!!
