Mandarin Pearl Close to Everything!

Absolutely fantastic stay! Great location as well! Hosts were very responsive

Very good location fir Mandarin. Walk to restaurants, grocery stores, and night clubs.

Advertised fenced in back yard that was unuseable due to fire ants and overgrown. Could not access yard due to gate not working properly. Kitchen poorly stocked with standard conveniences. Left with one dish towel for a 12 day stay. Area quite noisy...one block away from main highway. Dirty utensils....NO SMOKE ALARM OR CARBON MONOXIDE SENSOR. Tub looks like it was cleaned with dirty bricks. Mattresses covered a very brittle plastic making it quite hot, noisy and sheets kept coming off the mattress. Advertised patio which consisted of a carport furnished with 2 small plastic chairs by the garbage bins. Very Disappointed!

Plenty of room for 3. Convenient location on San Jose in Mandarin. Close to NAS Jax, Beach Blvd, Orange Park, and all points south of city. Spent time visiting family. Weather first few days was wet and cool then last days warm and sunny. The break in heat was nice. It was nice doing the flea and farmer markets. Enjoyed the ease of using 295. Would recommend this place if visiting Jax. Pets were comfortable and safe while out doing errands. I think they enjoyed their alone time also. I hear there are plenty of dog friendly places and parks in Jax to explore and will have to check them out.

Very nice property! Definitely recommend!

Family enjoyed the stay, Great place

This quaint home is close to everything you need yet is located in a quiet neighborhood. It was perfect for our week long stay. The host is quick to respond to communications and a pleasure to deal with. Tahnk you. We would stay here again.

Stay in for Work

We had a wonderful time

My solo visit for 4 nights could not have been easier at the Mandarin Pearl. Owner was very attentive/responsive leading into my arrival and I never needed anything from him during my stay. I did not need to use the yard. I did need to use the shower and it could best be described as worn but clean. All in all, the Pearl was clean, suited my needs and was easy to access. There might not a better walk to coffee/breakfast in America than the mere steps from the Pearl to Bagels R Us.

We spent a month here in December/January. The house is three bedrooms and one full bath. The Beds were comfortable. The house is a great place if you have pets with a nice yard. There is laundry on site. The main kitchen pots, pans, utensils, table settings, were all there. Appliances are all fairly new and work well. The host were very nice and accommodating with a couple requests while we were there and they were very nice about helping out. The only thing I would point out is for folks so they’re not surprised the tub/shower floor.looks dingy. It wasn’t necessarily not clean, but it probably could be replaced. Other than that, we did purchase our own swiffer mop to keep up with the tile floor, but there was a provided vacuum we used as well. If you’re looking for a place that you can bring a family that’s close to shops and activities as well as the beaches at a reasonable price this might fit the bill.

We rented this property because it stated it had a complete fenced in yard. That was the main reason. 1. Gate was broken and could not be closed. 2. HUGE Florida ant mountains all over the yard, side walk and driveway. 3. all weeds!! They stuck to our pants and covered the dogs paws. 4. Flying bugs all over the yard because the grass/weeds were so tall and abundance of and farms hidden in the tall weeds. 5. roughly 50 feet from the busiest blvd in Mandarin. Heard cars all night. Ended up in the ER. Had a reaction to 54 ant bites. I was standing in the driveway. I had lots of pictures. Owner would not response to any of my message concerning the tall weeds and if someone was coming by to cut them and kill all the ant mountains. NOT hills, mountains.

Everything met our expectations and Communication was Premium. If we are ever in Jacksonville for a short stay again, we will definitely consider getting a hold of you. Thanks for everything.

Mandarin Pearl was clean, quiet, well located, and cozy. My husband and I stayed for one week and our host, Richard, answered all our questions quickly. The house was well stocked and comfortable. We would book again!

There were ants all in the house. The air conditioner quit working on our last night and the property manager didnt resoond to my message, or phone calls. Its is a nice house. Other than those few things it was a great stay.
