Unethical Host - False info on listing. Stole money
The property listing listed "pet friendly" and "pets allowed" in multiple places on the listing. After I booked and received the email with the rules, it said "no pets". At that time I contacted host and provided screenshots of the conflicting information. The host would not allow me to cancel the booking and was going to charge me an extra $500 for my pet. I did not travel to this property after all of the issues and tried to cancel in advance but host would not allow. I believe the host purposely misleads guests into booking with a pet and being fined. I currently have a case open with VRBO.

Beautiful family home
The home was very clean and had everything we needed for a great family vacation. We were able to cook and grill together and enjoy evenings on the patio. It was a short walk to the beach. They provided so many things we needed for an enjoyable visit. I would highly recommend this home.

Definely A Home Away From Home!
Let me first start of by saying that this property was everything anyone would need while vacationing. The beds are extremely comfortable in all of the bedrooms including the bunkbeds. I love that the property owner added all of the extra special touches. It's nestled in a nice quiet community. The parking is great for families arriving in multiple cars. Everything was exactly as pictured in the listing. The backyard is nice and offers comfortable seating outside on the patio. This is a property that my family and I all agreed on as being an excellent choice for our Thanksgiving holiday vacation. I had to contact the owners for a small issue and they responded within minutes and rectified the problem expeditiously. Everything was exceptionally!

LOVED this home.
This home is amazing and the location is perfect! It's half way between Destin and Sandestin, so shopping, Baytown, restaurants, and arcades were all less than 10 minutes away. The beach was in walking distance and so was Pompano Joe's. The hosts thought of everything and gifted us with toiletries (including sunscreen), water, sodas, etc. The beds have good mattresses. We slept so well! The only thing I would change is switching out the bunk beds for two full or twin beds. The top bunk was close to the light fixture, so I opted not to have my child sleep there. Everything else was perfect! We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely family vacation
My family group of grandparents, parents and kids all had a lovely Spring Break stay at this property. The house had many thoughtful touches, like sunscreen, a wagon, extra beach chairs and umbrellas etc. Every mattress was extremely comfortable, which was appreciated by those with back issues in our family. All appliances like fridge/freezer, full washer and dryer, and grill felt new and were in pristine shape. The beach is about a 15 minute walk away. Access to a private access area with two beach chairs and umbrellas made the beach less crowded and enjoyable. There are also restaurants within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again!
