Megan
This was our second time staying at Tara’s home. We love the access to the private pool and it’s only a short trip to the beach. She’s always easy to communicate with.
Hugh
Very nice home, spent a lot of time at pool and kitchen
Home has a new gas grill
Golf cart straight to the beach
Tara is on top of everything with excellent response to a bear breaking into locked garbage can
Matthew Aaron
This was the perfect beach getaway. We stayed for a week and could not have been happier with our stay.

Tara was great to work with. Her place is well taken care of because she actually does stay there from time to time. She proactively gave us lots of ideas for places to eat and go out. There was an unforeseen appliance problem (not anyone’s fault) and she was super communicative and talked us through things till it was resolved, that’s why I didn’t rate it 4, she really did all she could to help. We’d definitely stay there again in the future. Somehow I missed the part where we could bring dogs, her dog kennels were inside and probably the nicest I’ve ever seen so next time that may be the plan. Piece of advice: Bears are a thing. We followed Tara’s instructions about using the can locks and were fine but some neighbors didn’t and their trash was all over the highway. Renting a golf cart is a game changer for the beach, we may never be able to go back to not driving on the beach. We had a great visit and appreciate the help and communication!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Tara’s place in Florida! The house was beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. The personal pool was a dream—clean, private, and perfect for relaxing at any time of day. We especially loved the screened-in porches and multiple decks, which offered plenty of places to unwind and take in the peaceful surroundings.
One tip for future guests: renting a golf cart really took our vacation to the next level. Being able to ride it to the beach and carry all of our gear made everything so much easier and more fun. It gave us the freedom to explore the area in a laid-back, beachy way.
We’re already looking forward to our next trip—I’ll definitely be staying at Tara’s place again!
Janie
First and Foremost, hosts are always a very important part of airbnb to me and Tara is the best! She was quick with responses and very accomodating to my change! The home is beautifully furnished! I LOVED my stay at Sweet T By The Sea! It was like walking into paradise, so peaceful and beautiful! Pool was perfect! Ocean sounds were amazing! The bed was oh so comfy like being in a cloud! I hope to return! Thank you Tara for a wonderful stay!
Christina
Tara’s home is absolutely beautiful. We had a wonderful last minute birthday trip and couldn’t have asked for more.
The kitchen is amazing and fully stocked with anything you may need. Great open floor plan and the house was so clean and homey! The wrap around deck with a screened area was a huge bonus for enjoying our evenings.
Tara was a great host! So quick to respond to any questions and beyond helpful. We definitely hope to return for another stay!
Sara
The place is absolutely stunning. Very beautiful home and right near the ocean. Tara was great. The property is pretty far from Port St. Joe, so you will want to make sure you bring food to cook at home, we made a day of walking into Cape St. Blas which was fun. Thanks again.
Lisa
We had a great time staying in Port St Joe. Great local restaurants and lovely local people and tourists alike. The beach was not crowded and a short walk away though off of a fairly busy road. A golf cart rental would make that journey a lot easier if traveling with young kids. We would definitely come back.
Dawn
Beautiful home. Super clean with a wonderful set up. We felt at home and Tara reached out several times to make sure our stay was perfect. It was a great arrangement for our dogs and we enjoyed all the extra amenities. We will definitely choose this home again!
