Family beach trip

Absolutely wonderful property, beautifully decorated and furnished down to the smallest detail. We even had fresh flowers in the foyer and master bathroom when we arrived, plus a bottle of wine and a loaf of delicious fresh cinnamon bread waiting for us in the kitchen. This unit was perfect for our family of nine. All the beds were exceptionally comfortable. There were plenty of towels, a thoroughly equipped kitchen, lovely and comfy balcony overlooking the ocean. The pool was very much enjoyed by our young grandchildren. We had only two very small issues, one being a sometimes bad WiFi connection, and the other being the shower heads could all stand being replaced….neither a big problem but worth noting. Bottom line is, we all adored our stay and will definitely be back as well as recommend it to friends.

Great condo!

We absolutely loved this condo! The location, cleanliness, view of the beach, fully stocked kitchen, comfy blankets and homey feeling - it was perfect. We’ve stayed up and down 30A and this was our favorite spot. Im usually drawn to more updated furniture and decor — but this one was so well stocked and comfortable that I just didn’t care. Great communication with the property manager. She was so helpful. We had zero issues and a perfect week at the beach.

Great Vacation

My family and I had a wonderful time in Santa Rosa staying in “Patch of Heaven”. The unit was ready for us on arrival and we found it to be clean and exactly as photos and previous reviews described. The unit has a great view from the balcony and is very convenient to the whole area. The unit is well equipped, has plenty of space for a large group and the bunk room was a kid favorite. The property offers a gated parking area with plenty of room to park, which is a big plus. Norma Jean, the property manager, even checked up on us to make sure everything was going well and we didn’t need anything! We would definitely stay here again!

Overall. Very well with the accommodations. Not impressed with the beach company u have to rent chairs from. You have to spend a lot of money to get to the ocean you supposedly paid for They we’re rude and unprofessional Not impressed with them at all Limits extremely what u can set up or even build a sand castle with the kids.

Perfect spot

We were a group of 9 comprised of 2 households. The neighborhood was exactly what we were looking for, as it was a little more lowkey than Destin but still had great shopping and dining. Beach was beautiful and the condo was very nice, well appointed and maintained. Checked all the boxes for our group - would definitely look to stay here again.

Great unit and location !

This was our 5th time staying in various units at the Villas of Santa Rosa Beach, and our 2nd time renting this unit. It’s a very well equipped unit with pretty much everything we needed at hand. I hesitate to add anything negative because it’s the end of the season . Stains in the carpet or a deep cleaning probably happens in the off season. The property manager is very nice and responded to my text message quickly. The Gulf Place community is growing very quickly and was more congested than in previous years, even after Labor Day. Shrunk Gully (across the street) had loud, live music every night but I think it ended at a fairly reasonable hour. I expect that will continue to be a challenge but we still love how convenient this complex is to Publix and Goatfeathers. ☺️Unrelated to this unit, the beach service company grabs all of the front row spots at 6am, even when the spots aren’t reserved. I think that’s ridiculous because I should have a chance for front row when I’m renting a unit on the private beach. 😒

Patch of Heaven

Great location—walkable to everything. The beds were comfortable and it was clean with a wonderful porch. It is steps from the pool and right on the beach. All the kitchen equipment one could want. Our only complaint were the televisions. They were very confusing to operate. Cable company was responsive in explaining but the explanations were complicated too. The Villas need someone to come help within a few hours or have detailed instructions by each television. Nevertheless, we had a great time and the property manager was cheerfully responsive to all our questions.

Wonderful stay on 30a

From start to finish, this was a great vacation. A gift of Prosecco and bread at check-in is such a nice touch. Plenty of space for 2 families with kids. View from balcony is spectacular. Coffee, pizza, seafood, shopping all within a one minute walk - right across street. Only complaint is the building sits right next to a busy public beach access point, so gets really crowded & the privacy isn’t really enforced. But this is a minor inconvenience. Otherwise, a perfect place & we will definitely book again.

We loved it here! The beach access cannot be beach. Pool was great and pleasantly surprised to see that it was cleaned everyday! The condo came well equipped with soap, TP and dish soap. They also had tons of extra towels and bedding, even a few beach towels! It was so nice to have all of this. We will definitely be back for another trip.

Excellent long weekend

We had an excellent stay. The unit was as advertised. Very clean, well decorated, and outstanding location--close to beach and to several restaurants. Owner easy to work with. Nice touch with the complimentary wine and breakfast bread. Only complaint--very minor--is the tv in the den seemed to have a mind of its own. All in all, highly recommend this property.

Wonderful Unit and Location!

This is a wonderful unit! It has a very well stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes, glasses cookware and silverware. Very comfy beds with extra bedding and towels. The decor is beachy but not at all tacky. The balcony furniture was also very comfortable to enjoy the amazing oceanfront views! Our property manager Norma Jean was wonderful and attentive and there was a yummy loaf of local bread and a bottle of wine waiting for our arrival. We would highly recommend booking this unit for a perfect vacation!
