Great house!

We loved this house. It’s right across from the beach access point and the pools/village are also a close and easy walk. The beach is not crowded and the included chairs were a bonus! Would definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay at the Lazy Lizard. The house is steps from the ocean. It is an easy stroll to heated pools, shops, and more. The house itself was clean and as described in the listing. We would certainly stay here again.

Cozy cottage with great location

The property was clean with an awesome location directlyacross from a walkover to the beach. This was our 1st stay in Carillon and we absolutely loved the property/community. The check in and check out process was smooth and no issues. The owner was amazing and communication was great.

Wonderful location

This was our second time staying at this cute house with wonderful location. We love Carrilon and will likley return next year. The location of the property is absolutely perfect which is why we stayed a second time. We were however once again disappointed to find that the downstairs bathroom still has all kinds of issues-the shower knobs don’t work well and are not marked hot/cold and still one falls off. Also you cannot shower upstairs and downstairs at the same time-the hot water only works in one bathroom at a time which was difficult with a family of 4. The grout in the bathroom needs deep cleaning or stripping-rather gross and not well maintained. Same with the outdoor shower. Some attention to the bathroom could easily make this place feel luxurious. Very comfy beds.

Truly an amazing property and location. Beach access was just steps away from the front door. Home had all the amenities necessary for a family of 4. We could not have asked for anything better. If you are looking for peace and quiet away from all the craziness this is by far the best you will find. We plan to be back and even discussed making this an annual family trip.

Love Carillon Beach

This is our 5th time staying in Carillon Beach. We love the location with Publix across the road, the quiet beach and safe, quaint neighborhood. The Lazy Lizard was just enough for our family of four, very clean and comfortable and just across the street from the beach access. We thank you for a great stay!

Lazy Lizard was perfect for our family!

We traveled as a family (my wife and our two teenage boys). The Lazy Lizard was perfect for us because of the location and amenities. Only about 75 feet from the front door to beach crossover. Also, easy walking distance to the basketball court and Paradise Gym (both huge for our boys.) The included free beach chair setup was a nice touch that we used daily!

Peaceful spot

Lovely smaller home with 2 beds/1 bath up and 1 bath downstairs. Had everything we needed in the kitchen. (Toaster cord appeared burned so we did not use just in case). Note upstairs tub has high edge which was difficult for one of our guests to step over (downstairs shower has low entry). The previsit communication felt a little challenging- must download an app, wording is harsh, and some conflicting check out procedures in app vs on the fridge, but there was a hairdryer, soap, shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom. Actual entry and exit was simple.
