Peaceful and relaxing

What a great place to stay ! We absolutely loved everything about this property . As much as we love the beach , it is so nice to be able to retreat into the quiet neighborhood at the end of the day. It's about a 5 minute ride on the golf cart back and forth . We will without a doubt be returning in the future !

Much needed relaxing vaca

This was a great week, at a great, family friendly place. Had a great time, just a short way from the beach. Good pool access, pickle ball, shopping, and golf. Not fancy, but a great place for our needs!

Nice getaway

Cute and cozy place. The best part was the golf cart and being able to get to everything so easily- the beach and Baytown Wharf. The master bed is definitely too soft and the walls and cabinets need a good cleaning, but everything was good and clean. Wished we would have brought fishing poles, it would have made the trip even better. Not bad for a rainy beach vacation. I recommend and would stay again.

We enjoyed the location of the property and the golf cart to scoot all around! As advertised on VRBO, clean and worked really well for our small family! Our boys enjoyed fishing out back!

Dated but comfortable , no major issues but bring your essentials. Communication was good but someone in the cleaning crew smoked because there was the smoke smell when we entered. Would rent again.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It is a great location and everything worked. The bedrooms are on opposite sides which provides great privacy. The only negative is the old uncomfortable furniture. The living area definitely needs updated.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The only thing we were a little disappointed that the beach was not closer or pools.According to description on VRBO they were in walking distance but 2 or 3 miles is not what we consider walking distance. Other wise the the property was very peaceful and beautiful.

Sandestin....best place in the panhandle

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed multiple times at Sandestin and 4 times at 657 Bayou. Time for an update in the unit. Beds are super soft, living room VERY dusty and furniture is old. Dryer never shuts off, fire hazard! Kitchen well stocked, nice golf cart and unit is spacious. Staff is very friendly and responsive. We caught 5 little lizards in the unit, not sure how that many get in? Sandestin is an awesome resort and we love it, this time the unit just wasn't in the same condition as we have had in the past.

Second stay here

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: This was our second stay in this unit. Love the location. Unit is very roomy and clean. Our only complaint would be the turtle speed golf cart. We called and asked maintenance to look at it as we were being passed by other golf carts and bicycles. No return call, had to call them. Said it was just a slow cart. We took it out for 5 minutes and it dropped 3 bars on the battery. Ended up not using it as it was a hazard, super disappointed. Lower star rating due to response about cart and the condition of cart. Would recommend unless you want a cart.

June 2019 stay

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 had a wonderful stay at this condo. I was on the property for a conference, but my husband and 21 month old tagged alone for the week and it was perfect. He was IN LOVE with the golf cart and it was so nice to use to get to the wharf and the shopping center near us. Having the golf cart as part of the rental is a total win. The grounds of San Destin are beautiful as well. Would love to come back during the off season. The inside of the condo was very clean and well stocked. Some reviews complained about minimal supplies, but I’m accustomed to that with vrbos. After the first night or so I mentioned the beds were a little uncomfortable and squeaky and they had maintenance out that day to tighten the headboard and then the following day memory foam mattress toppers arrived to our surprise for ALL of the beds, made a world of difference especially with a wild toddler in bed. Will gladly return

My husband and I have been unable to do a family vacation with our daughters due to military restrictions, deployments and work up cycles. In December we will be moving down to Destin for work and just thought we would find a condo to vacation while still knock out looking at houses. Through our stay our eyes were opened and we absolutely fell in love with this community so much so that we are looking for a home in this area! This condo is in a prime location. Wonderful mix of relaxation and amenities. The golf cart was an excellent addition to transport the fam and explore this area. The beach, pools, grocery store, restaurants and shopping are all accessible via cart. The condo was clean and well stocked with cookware. Yes, you do have to bring your own seasonings and some other miscellaneous items but growing up in CA this was standard in every beach house I ever stayed at it AND you had to bring your cookware so having all the utensils/pots/pans and more really was a nice addition. The property manager went above and beyond to clearly communicate with us and ensure we had a great stay. In case you can’t tell by now, I HIGHLY recommend this property.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week staying at 657 Bayou. The condo was large enough for our group of 6, 3 being children. The golf cart was a must, which is why we chose this condo to begin with, it did not disappoint! Condo was clean. Furniture is a little old and kind of dingy looking but was fine for us, patio furniture needs work, bolts falling out. Overall a fantastic week!

In a great area

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home offers a potentially great experience. The amenities in the home were a bit lacking- had to buy all our supplies tp, laundry soap, body soap, shampoo, etc.- and things definitely need to be updated. The furniture is a bit over dirty, the floors were dirty, the window coverings hang off the windows, the beds are way to soft, the door to the home is covered with bugs. We spent the first two days trying to get things around the house fixed, namely the golf cart and charging station. I will say the management company was very responsive and kind and got things taken care of. The golf cart is really the main way to get around sandestin, which is very fun, but not so much if it is not working properly. The sink was also clogged and the disposal did not work. But the kitchen is well equipped and the area and location is amazing! It could not have more fun things to do and the whole family had a blast. This home would be a 5 star with some TLC and a little less scrooge on the supplies/towels.

Stayed at other houses at Sandestin, but this is the best one!! Loved the screened-in porch, house had everything a person needs, and was a safe location. Only problem was the emergency brake on golf cart would not always set, took a rock with us.

Perfect beach getaway

Such a great location. Our family loved it. We always stay beachfront but decided to stay Bayside this time. The kids thought the golf cart was awesome, we all loved the convenience of driving it to the beach, to dinner, to get ice cream. The condo was clean, had everything we needed, was very nicely decorated and comfortable with a pretty view of the lake.
