June 2, 2011: From HomeAway.comReview #1509936 "Highly recommended beach vacation home!"
We stayed at this property for a week in late May 2011 and loved it! In the past we've spent vacations
at the Outer Banks in NC, but after a recent relocation that moved us closer to FL, we decided to
change things up and are glad we did. The house was very clean and well-maintained - basically it was
exactly as advertised... The beach itself was easily accessible (good for herding the little ones to and
from the beach). The white sand and clear water made for an amazing beach experience! Afternoons
were spent at the house pool. The layout and landscaping provide a private feel for those afternoon
and evening swimming sessions. Panama City Beach was 20 minutes drive and was great for an
afternoon of tourist activities/shopping. Upscale shopping was very close in Seaside. Publix and Winn
Dixie were both close for grocery shopping and I highly recommend a stop at the Donut Truck (you'll
see it on the way in) for a fresh sour cream glazed donut! It was a great house a great vacation.
Thanks, Rae!

Rae - Just wanted to shoot you an e-mail, we stayed at your home from 6-19 to 6-26, 2010 and
everything was absolutely perfect. There were 4 adults and six children (6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) and we all
loved the closeness to the beach and the pool was perfect as well. We went to the beach in the
morning everyday and relaxed (as much as possible with 6 kids) by the pool in the afternoon. We
were worried coming down here about the oil, but we saw no ill effects, we did see some tar balls,
which were about the size of a dime that were near where the waves broke on the beach, but they
really did not cause any problems, we played in the ocean and on the beach all week long and no body
really even noticed. The sand is still as beautiful and sugar white as ever. We also did some fishing
from the beach and caught a few little sharks as well as some other random fish, nothing huge, but
alot of fun! Anyhow, everything was perfect and we loved the house, the bigger kids loved the bunk
room and the pool expecially. Thanks again and if you need anything let me know. I believe we will be
returning, I wish it could be a lot sooner!
Best Regards,
Matt

Hey Gay!! The name of the property is A perfect circle. It's a 4 bedroom house, 2 bath with a pool. Also
pet friendly! Our challenge is always pet friendly, the girls each have mini schnauzers who are two
princesses!! The real princess had her own room equipped with a baby bed so it was a good fit for this
year! Having a pool has also been a requirement over the past few years! It was especially nice this
year with Emily! The walk to the beach is short and the walkway is very nice! The beach is gorgeous,
very private, most days it was us and a one other family! Not sure if that is always the case, but it was
never crowded! The house is not on the beach but only one house back! We would stay there again!
The agent is super nice and owns the home, she is very helpful and professional!
Hope this helps! Check it out and let me know what you think!!

Ladies and Gentlemen! This is a copy of the personal letter that we sent to Rae Bryant and her family
on renting what we believe is the best house in Santa Rosa Beach. You will feel like family and just fall
in love with the house and surroundings:
Rae, First we want to thank you for one of the best vacations that we have had as a family.
Everything from the house, to the pool, to the beach, to the manatee's migrating while we were
swimming, to the school's of stingray going by were absolutely WONDERFUL! Kathy and I are now
trying to figure when we can come by ourselves and stay in the condo. We are thinking the second
week of Sept (4th-11th) if the weather looks good. We have attached a few of the 676 pics taken while
we were down there.
Eavy just fell in love with all of it. It took only a minute for her to get used to the pool, but it took two
days before she would even get close to the water at the beach. She finally would go in only if I
(Grampers) was holding her. She chased crabs watched birdies and had breakfast with Granny on the
front deck. The whole evolution felt like we were staying at a family members house and NOT a
business transaction. Thank you for that.
We really had a great time and you will definitely be hearing from us soon on renting the condo.
May 2009:
"We had a great time at the beach house, and our week went by too fast! It's in a great location, and
it's very difficult to find a nice house close to the beach with a private pool that's also pet friendly.
And we had the beach to ourselves most days. So Perfect Circle was exactly what I'd been looking for
the last couple of years, and we will definitely be back next year. My friends are all telling their
families, so hopefully we can get you some referrals too. Thanks!"
July 2008:
"Rae: Thank you for sharing your lovely “ Perfect Circle ” with me and my family. We truly enjoyed the
week. I especially enjoyed the early mornings when I would sit out on the balcony off the family room
and drink coffee while enjoying the view. Your house is spacious and elegant yet was very
comfortable for my family group of ten people. Thanks again for allowing me and my family a most
memorable and enjoyable summer vacation." - Cheryl C.
July 2008:
"We had a wonderful time and you/your family have a great place. Also, it was nice to get out and
explore some of the local, recommended restaurants rather than doing the Destin thing. I am not sure
what we are doing for a vacation next year.., but if we decide to return to the Gulf, your house would
be the place we would want to return to and I will definitely recommend it to friends looking for a
place." - Jerry M.
June 2008: "We did enjoy our stay very, very much. It was truly "Perfect" for us!"
July 2007: "We enjoy staying at Perfect Circle and plan to do so again."
"Thanks for sharing your lovely beach house. We did enjoy our stay and it was in a wonderful location
for us."
June 2007:
"Your house is beautiful and the beach is beautiful and we look forward to visiting again. We will be
recommending your place to anyone we know that is heading that way. Thanks so much for
everything."
May 2007:
"We had a glorious time at Perfect Circle.... Your kitchen was well-equipped for cooking. The only
thing missing was a juicer (it is Florida after all), so I bought a hand juicer and left it there for others to
enjoy. I so enjoyed the pool and spent many hours beside it reading and napping, reading and
napping, reading and napping. We really loved that big old table of yours -- each night we played a
game called Mexican Train on it. Thank you so much for renting to us. We shall return..."
April, 2007:
"Thank you for sharing your home with us, we had the best spring break ever. Everthing was perfect!"
March 2007:
"We are having a blast! It is wonderful and everything We had hoped for. Thanks!!"
August 2006:
“We had a wonderful vacation, your house lived up to its name, it was Perfect!
June 2006:
”I just wanted to let you know how much We enjoyed our vacation this past week. We have absolutely
fallen in love with your house and that area and could not ask for better accommodations. I must
commend you on your upkeep of the house. The new paint and carpet looked wonderful, and
appliances were great. It was so nice to be in Florida and have a refrigerator that actually kept your
food cold - really cold. In many of the other places We have stayed, We would actually be worried
about our food spoiling in the lukewarm temperature of the refrigerator. Anyway, the house was even
better than We remembered and We thoroughly enjoyed the uncrowded beach
and private pool. We are already planning for next year, so you can count on us booking a week in
June 2007. Take care and thanks again for a fabulous vacation.
October 2005:
“I just wanted you to know what a great time we had in your house. It was a great vacation and the
location was perfect. Not to mention the weather….We could not have dictated better weather. It was
perfect, no humidity and no wind and very calm ocean.”
August 2005:
“Wow.....could not have had a better, more relaxing time! The place is
wonderful. I'm sure either we or friends will rent from you again. Thank you so much.”
August 2005:
“We had a great time on our vacation. The house was great ……If anyone says they want to rent a
house in Florida, I will definitely recommend Perfect Circle. I hope everything was left to your
satisfaction. You have been really pleasant to deal with. Thank You!!
July 2005:
“I just wanted to let you know how much my entire family enjoyed the house. It was fantastic, and we
could not have asked for a more perfect set of accommodations. The pool was key with the
kids………We also loved that we practically had the beach to ourselves. I am positive we will be
reserving it again for next year. Thanks again for sharing your beach home with us.”
August 2004:
“We had a great time. Really loved the place, the beach, everything. The kids all had a great
time………Thanks for providing a great place and feel free to use me as a reference anytime.”
