The Whale was a dream stay! We were here for a Mayo visit. We wanted to bring our pets… Chris was so accommodating! The entire cottage had everything we needed! We loved that we could take our pups to the beach and 2 daily long walks. They LOVED it! The fenced front patio was a fave pastime. This property doesn’t disappoint. We will definitely stay here again! The inside decor and pics was exactly as pictured and we were treated with beautiful roses and baked goods.

Wonderful cottage!
This little gem is in a perfect location for everyone who wants to enjoy the beach and have great restaurants in walking distance. We really enjoyed our stay and how walkable the neighbhood was. Easy parking and check-in process. The cottage is perfect for a couple looking to unwind. The bed is incredibly comfortable and the shower is nice and spacious. The beach is only a few steps away - you can see the ocean from the front deck! We’d definitely stay here again.

Near Mayo and Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital
My wife was at Brooks for months and was time to stay close to Jax beach and nearby restaurants. Location is terrific and walked the beach daily and recharged my own battery. Chris was easy to connect with and helpful. I was very comfortable during my stay.

NYE Stay
We enjoyed our time at the Whale House. It’s a small place as depicted in the photos but well appointed, comfortable and cozy. It’s very close to the beach and lots of restaurants. The fenced yard was great for our pup who was a welcomed guest as well.

Thanksgiving
First, I have to say "WOW"!!! This place was awesome and as we say in the South "Cute as a Button!" Chris put little touches in this Cottage that made it a HOME, not just a place to stay. Bed was very comfortable, pull-out sofa was nice as well per our adult son. Also nice to sit on for watching football. The short walk to the beach was an added bonus, which our little Maltese really enjoyed. We will definitely stay again when coming to Jacksonville Beach!

Whale Cottage
Cottage was perfect! Cozy and very clean. Loved that it was a short walk away from the beach and restaurants. We had a few questions and Chris responded immediately with a resolution. I would recommend this location without a doubt!
