We love Navarre and Jenn’s Creole Cottage!
We loved the Creole Cottage. The layout is perfect for families to visit and yet have their own quiet rooms to relax! The location to the beach was perfect. It’s been a while since we visited Navarre beach but we plan to return! Only thing that would have made the stay better would have been a pool!

Amazing location!
Jen's Cottage is a great location and fully stocked vacation rental. The beach is steps away and not overcrowded. There are three decks to watch sunrise and dolphins. The rental is beautifully decorated and had lots of extras. There are plenty of grocery store options close by. We have been going to the Gulf for many years and everyone in our family rated this the best place so far. Thanks for a great setting to a wonderful family vacation!

Jen's Creole Cottage - Great Spot 5 Stars
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: Great spot, pictures were accurate. Place was very clean and loaded with amenities, linens, and towels. Lots of beach equipment but some was started to get a little dated (bring your own chairs). Managers were really responsive (VERY) to a couple of things upon arrival. Only other comment is that a gas grill is shown (not mentioned in description so my fault) but we were provided with a charcoal grill which can be a different experience.Would come back if we were looking for a very relaxing (i.e. beach only) type vacation as there isn't much else to do in the area. My brother LOVES this type of vacation, not necessarily our cup of tea, but we met him here so his choice! Unit was great and view was amazing. Loved sleeping with doors open listening to the beach all night. Top porch was also great for a night cap and star watching.

Simply the Best
In a selfish way I don’t want to review this property. I want it to be my secret! We were at Jen’s Creole Cottage for a week. This is hands down my favorite beach place ever! And we’ve been vacationing on the Emerald coast for 60 years! The decor is so perfect-much better than pictured because you can’t feel the comfortable down cushions of the sand colored sofa pillows or see the carefully curated sea-themed Fitz and Floyd lamps and gorgeous teal vintage USA pottery. Original art, wonderful library, great DVDs and a large cabinet full of games and puzzles will provide plenty to do on rainy days. We cooked most nights and the kitchen has every single pot, pan, serving dish or utensil that anyone could want or need. Plenty of beach chairs, sand toys, fishing equipment. We loved the master suite on the third floor. So spacious and a beautiful view from the private deck. Amazingly comfortable bed. There is not a single thing I would change about this property. It was perfect! Thanks Jen for sharing!!

Beyond excellent location & communication!
We came as a family of 6 and the property couldn’t have been better equipped to meet all of our needs. My family of 4, vacations at least 3 times a year & this house, far and away, had the most comfortable pillows we’ve ever found at a rental or hotel. There are some very minor flaws in the primary suite balcony but with the storms that came through the week before we got there, we were surprised that was it. Besides, nobody comes to the beach for the patio furniture. We ran in to an issue on our final day & I contacted the property managers. All 4 of them sprang in to action & corrected it for me, immediately! As a teacher & mom to teenagers involved in 400 activities combined with the social lives of Paris Hilton in the early 2000’s, I’m not used to being taken care of. They actually gave me a gift that I didn’t know how badly I needed, simply by caring about me & my experience. I will absolutely seek out their rental properties again in the future if we find ourselves back on the Emerald Coast!

Amazing house right on the beach!
This is the third time that our family has vacationed in Navarre and hands down this place is the best! The house was perfect for our family of five. Our kids (13,15,17) loved having a room to themselves for the stay. Having vacationed at beach houses along the gulf many times, it really makes a big difference to be right on the beach like this house. We kept the curtains open and woke up with the sunrise. We had our coffee and breakfast on the balcony overlooking the beach. The house has everything we needed for a day at the beach (umbrellas, plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, beach toys etc,). We didn't have to pack a lunch because we were just steps from the house and its easy to go back for a bite and then head back to the beach. We took a night time stroll along the beach because the beach is right there! For good local seafood, I recommend Scooters (so good we ate there twice) and Dewey Desitn's. At Dewey's, you can eat outside with your toes in the sand. We took a boat trip to go snorkeling and dolphin watching in nearby Walton Beach area. The difference between being a 5-10 minute walk to the beach and being right on the beach is huge! We were able to come and go from the beach and that made it much more enjoyable and we got more beach time! There was plenty of room for our family of five. I'm telling you, you will love this house! We haven't been back to the other places we stayed on Navarre Beach, but we will come back to this house! We love this house!!

The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with cookware, dishes and utensils. Aldi, Walmart and Publix are a short drive away. The beach had red flag days the week we were there in June. The beach was great for walks and not too crowded. Navarre Beach is less developed, which was nice. Would definitely stay here again.

Delightful Property
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Enjoyed the condo, loved that the big kitchen was stocked with all the gadgets, has a keurig (my hubs is a big keurig guy) & a regular coffee maker too. There are plenty of towels & all the things you need for your family. Seriously, no shortage of all the things! Even plenty of beach toys like floaties, shell diggers, & many beach chairs!We loved how big the place is! Let me tell you, the pictures don’t do this place justice! (Have professional photos taken!) I was worried about rattan furniture not being comfortable, but that’s certainly not the case. The chairs around the table swivel AND rock, are on casters so they move well, are heavy & super comfy. That’s nice for lingering around the table after dinner. (We went out a lot, but I also cook for my family so this is important to us.) The decor is light and airy, beachy - which, for us - if I’m going to be in Florida, I want a place ON the beach & I want it to look like I’m on the beach. (I avoided condos with dark furniture, dark kitchen cabinets or anything dark - but that’s just us.) All of the rooms were light & airy with lots of windows. The kids (16, 18, & 19) felt spoiled to all have their own rooms, bath or balcony. The master is glorious with the soft greens, lovely towels, spacious bathroom, large shower, walk in closet, private water closet & huge tub. The carpet throughout still smells brand new & felt clean & soft. The pillows on the bed were comfortable, the bed is perhaps a memory foam & not what we prefer, but the sheets were luxurious. I can’t say anything bad about the bed- as mattresses are purely an individual preference. We loved being so close to the beach & that we could come & go all day like we own the place. The maintenance co was great, had to come for a few things. The guy & my hubs chatted & hubs showed him things that needed attention, light bulbs & little stuff. He fixed everything & told hubs all the special thin

Was done with little intrusion on our activities. Five stars for that!We are definitely thinking to return to this property.

Lovely home
There are many wonderful things to say about this home. The kitchen was very nice and really well stocked with mostly anything you need to make meals (and we make most meals of our meals in the home). We also really appreciated the extra beach chairs, the paddle board, and other beach items that we have never had at other places we have rented on Navarre Beach.The master bed might have been one of the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. The main deck had very nice furniture. Overall it was just a lovely home. The down sides weren’t many. The master bedroom is on third floor, so you do have to do several sets of stairs (this wasn’t a down side for us but for someone who may have less mobility, it might be). The house is right next to a public beach access, so there are defintely more people on the beach around you (that was the reason for 4 star on location). The TV in the main room could use an update (we don’t like to watch TV on vacation but the one bad weather day we wanted to watch and it just wasn’t the easiest TV to navigate—however the TV in the master bedroom was a smart TV and that was very nice!) We would 100% get this place again if it was available when we come back to Navarre.
