Met all expectation and more!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ive rented many homes for family and vacations and Christian retreats but this location by far was THE BEST. From the get go- the customer service from the management company was exceptional. I made a call to them on the first day requesting more utensils and within 10 mins the utensils arrived! The home was clean, spacious and the kitchen had all the extra stuff needed such as blender, mixer, big pots, etc.... Coming back soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've always had wonderful stays with Blue Moon but Big Daddy's may be our new favorite. The layout was perfect for our large family and the views were outstanding! The kitchen was extremely well stocked and has lots of room for large groups to gather. The private walk-over was amazing as was the outdoor shower. We can't wait to come back next year!

Great Family Get Together At Navarre Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group of 15 had a wonderful week in Big Daddys Cottage. The location was great, very private. The house had all the amenities we needed. Very easy access to shopping destinations and attractions on the beach or on the mainland. We enjoyed walks on the pier to observe dolphins, fish and sea turtles. I would recommend this property for large families and groups with children. We hope to visit again in the future.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The moment you walk in the door and see the "emerald green" waters, your vacation begins! No crowds in front of your beach house, it's like your own private beach, even during Memorial Day week. Always had a quick response from Blue Moon Vacation Rentals, very easy to work with! Great lay-out with upstairs and downstairs living areas. Our group was 10 adults and 7 kids, ages 3 to 11, and we didn't feel crowded at all. Something we didn't expect, was the fun that the little ones had, playing in the sand and finding shells in the area next to the stilts,(under the house), which was mostly in the shade. And the outdoor shower (hot and cold water) was so helpful! We also rented 3 "Cool Cabanas", which were delivered and picked up by Barefoot Beach Equipment Rentals.

Loved the location and the house. The only thing I would improve on in the listing is to show a floor plan of the house. The beach and water were perfect! I loved the lack of people on the beach by us.

A Mixed Bag

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Navarre Beach, and on paper and in the photos, Big Daddy's seemed to fit the needs of our family as far as floor plan and bedroom allotments go. The house was clean, and had plenty of kitchen items and all of the things that we needed to enjoy our stay. However, they have replaced the floor on the main level with gray plank flooring, which is poorly installed and has gaps visible between the planks. When we opened kitchen drawers in the island there was a mildewy smell. The bathrooms, though clean and useful, are older and small. I just feel like, for the price they were asking, that the house was not comparable in quality to others we've stayed in. If you're going to ask that much money, pay a professional who will do a good job installing your floors and don't have a loose outlet at the base of the kitchen island.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 17 really enjoyed our week in this spacious and beautiful home! There was plenty of room for everyone, the views were spectacular, and beach access was very handy. Comfortable furnishings made it feel like home. We did a lot of cooking and everything we needed was there in the kitchen. The rental company was always quick to respond to questions by text, even after hours. Everyone, ages 65 to 6 months, had a great time at Big Daddy’s

Great Vacay

This was one of the best vacations that my family has had together, probably all time. We have been coming to the Gulf Coast (mostly Destin) since 1987 ( we have only missed 3 years int that time frame), but this was by far one of the best. The house was perfect and just steps from the beach. It was clean and well furnished for a large group. Blue Moon did a great job of getting us in and they were very responsive if we had a question and they checked on us regularly. I would and will definitely stay here again,

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was perfect for our big family vacation. We loved having large windows to enjoy the beautiful water even when we were in the house. The boardwalk was great especially for us older ones to not have to trudge through the sand. The house is beautiful and well equipped. The management group really easy to work with from first to last contact.

Terrific place for a family gathering

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My extended family has staying at this particular location several times over the years when it was managed by companies other than Blue Moon. What a positive change!! The house is very comfortable and has all the amenities needed for a large family. We had one issue due to the freezing weather which was fixed within a couple of hours of my calling. Blue Moon staff is very responsive and courteous. The beach is gorgeous and there are awesome sunrises and sunsets! I would definitely recommend Navarre Beach and this particular property to anyone looking for time away with family.

It was perfect for our family gathering.One minor issue: the shower in the upstairs bathroom did not work; apparently the faucet was painted over and you could not turn on the shower lever.
