Family get away

The House was beautiful inside, very clean & modern. The bedrooms were large. Great location and close to the beach. Very nice to have the golf cart to get to the beach and some close shops & restaurants. The backyard was just as pictured, very private and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic time!

Enough space for some friends, but no one was cramped! Awesome back yard for private pool hangs. Super close walk to the beach + a golf cart that can scoot you over no problem. I give this place a 6/5. Will be staying here again.

Wonderful Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was clean and accommodating for our our group of 5 couples. Great living space for groups to gather and the kitchen table was just right for playing games. While the pool was small (didn’t impact our group) the outdoor facilities were inviting for group get togethers. A special thanks to the owners and management for quickly responding to some minor needs and questions.

Easy stay, close to everything.

Perfect location for families. The beach, restaurants, and shopping were all a short golf cart ride from the house. The beach was also within walking distance. There were plenty of toys for the beach and chairs. There wasn't much privacy in the backyard however we had decent neighbors that were respectful with their music choices and volume. The house was plenty big for the nine of us. 4 adults and 5 kids ranging from 7-16. We had a wonderful time and hope to come back.

Nice size house but spiders inside

The house was a nice size and had awesome amenities. Located close to beach. Downside was there were spiders all over the stairs inside the house. Kitchen rugs very old and dirty looking. Not as clean as would have liked.

Great Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. 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 loved staying here! Had a group of 13 and everyone slept comfortably. Location is great. We used the golf cart to get to the beach but you could easily walk. Air conditioning had a hard time keeping up, especially the top floor, but that is to be expected in August. The backyard could have used a fresh pass from a leaf blower but nothing major. Please note the bannister on the outside staircase is very loose at the top. This needs to be repaired ASAP. The washing machine downstairs was very moldy and needs to be deep cleaned. We did not use that when we saw the mildew buildup. The water and ice dispenser in the door of the freezer were also moldy. I cleaned it as well as I could so we could use them. Overall, great spot and great layout.

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: The house was the perfect size for our group. We loved the open space, large dining table and size of bedrooms. The golf cart was handy for trips to the beach and the location was quiet and close to amenities. The pool is not heated so we didn’t spend time in the back yard.The appliances need to be replaced. We had issues with the refrigerator and dishwasher not working properly. The management staff was responsive & friendly when we called but new appliances are needed. More garbage bags need to be available & it was disappointing that there was no recycling.We would stay here again.

Destin Aug 2023

Inside the home was clean and the towels/sheets were good quality. Golf Cart is new and excellent addition for the tradeoff with the location to the beach. Having 4 king beds is huge advantage to this house. Mattresses were of really good quality. Multi-zone AC was also a very important during our stay with the summer heat above normal. All levels were comfortable Only real complaints made to management. Landscaping totally overgrown making getting around to the back and enjoying backyard difficult. Trash pickup does not match the Sat-Sat schedule, leaving the new renter to deal with prior renters lack of courtesy.

Expect extra “guests”

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We want to give this great reviews, but we had a cockroach infestation! We were greeted by a large cockroach on the kitchen door and as we moved through the house, more appeared. Maintenance came out and sprayed. We had a leaky fridge that we needed to mop up water, then we found one of the washing machines (needed to wash to towels we’d used to mop up water) was broken. Maintenance was friendly and attended to those items, as well. The beds were comfy but it’s hard to sleep with lights on to deter cockroaches. This was an attempted 50th bday party for myself and 4 friends but we really didn’t get to relax or do what we’d planned as we were constantly seeing roaches. That included a giant one in my toilet on departure day. Golf cart was great. Beach supplies great. Location pretty good too! Kitchen was well-equipped but we needed to clean everything before we used it as roaches were on cupboards too. We were compensated only with an extended (2 hour) check out that we needed for shaking all our stuff out to ensure no bugs went home with us. We were pretty negatively impacted by the bugs. We asked next door and they were not experiencing the same problems. One of my friends owns properties in Florida and she also does not experience this level of infestation. For as much as we spent, we were sorely disappointed.
