Skip the condos and experience Reel Paradise — your private waterfront retreat in Perdido Key. No elevators, no noisy neighbors — just a hot tub under the stars, your own dock for boating and fishing, and inviting outdoor spaces built for family memories. Paddle into sunrise, grill your fresh catch in the outdoor kitchen, and relax while watching sunsets over Bayou Garcon.

Just 5 minutes from Johnson Beach National Seashore, Perdido Key State Park, and Perdido Key Seafood Market. Grab lunch or launch your boat at Hub Stacy’s, or enjoy waterside dining at The Point, Oyster Bar, or Holiday Harbor Marina & Sunset Grille. Explore the Perdido Key “beach strip” — including Cubi Bar Café, Jellyfish Restaurant & Bar, The Crab Trap, or enjoy a bushwacker at the iconic Flora‑Bama. For family day trips, head to Waterville USA in Gulf Shores or Tropic Falls at OWA—both offer action-packed waterpark fun just a short drive away.

Wide decks overlook Bayou Garcon, complete with a hot tub, outdoor TV, and a gourmet kitchen setup, fire pit, making it easy to cook, relax, or simply enjoy the water views. Watch the Blue Angles practice from the comfort of the back deck.

    Great fishing and easy beach access at Johnson Beach. We had a great time on the deck and fishing from the dock. The ice machine was a nice bonus.

    Indoor and outdoor kitchen recently renovated and havet everything desired from blackstone type griddle, to kamodo style BBQ grill to large coolers and TV for watching favorite games under covered deck. Hot tub, gas-fire pit with comfortable seating, rocking chairs overlooking the bayou where dolphin watching made easier with provided binoculars - both with morning coffee and evening wine. Pier with fish cleaning area and needed tools, crab traps, kayaks, paddleboard, corn hole. Outdoor activities galore in private setting.

    Easter vacation with my children and grandchildren was so nice and peaceful and comfortable. Easter morning complete with a wild Bunny in the yard! King Master bed was very comfortable, outdoor area was big and well used by everyone, lots of new outdoor seating for more than we had stay. Kayaking, fishing, catching bait, crabbing, fly overs from the base on practice days, and going to Johnson’s beach and Naval Base kept everyone busy. 10/10 . And an Ice Machine !!!

    House was clean and very nice inside. Quiet and off the beaten path but close to lots of shopping for necessities and restaurants. The outside deck was amazing. Enjoyed grilling fresh shrimp and fish from the local fish market on the outside kitchen while watching the beautiful sunset over the water. Wish we had time to play a little more with the kayaks and paddle boat available. The heron enjoyed watching us fish off the pier and we liked watching the dolphins swim by.

    I gave this 10/10 in all categories because this house was just that great. The owner communicated well with us before, after and during our stay. The house was lovely. And it was stocked with everything we needed. They had great suggestions of places to eat and we tried a lot of them and they were awesome. We wil be back with our kids and grands

    Great location. Enjoyed our stay, visited for 10 days in December. Very secluded, quiet peaceful location, hot tub was nice, beds comfortable, did some fishing off the pier(limited success), saw dolphins on several occasions, took in some of the sites, NAS museum, gulf shores state park, orange beach, etc. Very short drive to many restaurants nearby. Kitchen and dining area inside is on the smaller side but was fine for our group of 4. Outside area makes up for this as it is very spacious with large covered area for cooking/relaxing. Downstairs accommodation are like a small apartment with its own bedroom, bathroom, lounge area, no inside access to upstairs which was fine for us. Minor thing that needs attention is outdoor chair cushions diffently need a cleaning or replacement. Owner very responsive, gave us heads up to hot tub issue when we first arrived and had it resolved in a timely manner. We really enjoyed the secluded, peaceful location. Thank you.

    We scheduled a guys trip to Pensacola to see the air show. This property is well-situated close to NAS Pensacola and is a short drive to Publix and local restaurants. The land across the water from the house is a preserve, and provides an amazing backdrop to time spent on the deck and dock.

    Reel Paradise was one of the most awesome vacation rentals we have ever stayed in! Everything was just as the owner specified in the advertisement. The house was clean and well kept, and had every household item you could ever ask for. There are three bedrooms and the bedroom on the lower level is really a small apartment with living area and bathroom attached. The best part of the rental was the outdoor living and kitchen area, which is where we spent most of our time. It has plenty of comfortable seating and high end grills and cooktops, sink, bar area and tons of deck space. It also has a hot tub and boat dock on a beautiful secluded small bay. Our family could not have asked for more! The owner was quick to answer any question we had, and even allowed us to add two more people at the last minute. We would definitely stay here again! Also, there were two of the best seafood restaurants we have ever eaten at just minutes from the house. If your are going, try The Point and Fisherman's Corner. Amazing!

    We had a fantastic stay. This property was everything we hoped it would be. Home was clean. All the amenities you would need for a week were available. Beds were comfortable. The outdoor area overlooking the bay was where we spent the majority of our time even in 90+ degree heat. My husband caught several fish off the dock. My daughter and I really enjoyed use of the kayaks. We would love to stay here again.
