Really great stay at Captain Jack’s but not perfect
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very 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 at Captain Jack’s! You literally cannot beat the location, it’s SO good! The little pool is perfect and overall the house is well maintained. The set up of the house is ideal for those with kids because the master is situated down the hall from the kids rooms so you don’t have to tip toe around your room. I wouldn’t recommend this house for people with little kids as the couch backs up to a stairwell opening which was pretty dangerous for my kids who are dare devils. The master bed is hard as a rock and the pillows are the same. My husband and I are in our 30’s and had back pain most of the week we stayed because the bed was so uncomfortable. It would be amazing if they would get a king bed for the master and some really comfortable pillows. Lastly, the patio is off of the master and was crawling with cockroaches. We saw at least 5 every time we went out there so it was essentially unusable for us. Also, the cockroaches kept sneaking into the master so we found them in our luggage several times. The master sink also didn’t drain. Overall it’s a cute little rental but not perfect.

Great House. Lacks a few basics.
Great house overall. Property management team was friendly and responsive. House was well stocked. A few basic updates would change it considerably: 1. Provide a broom. If you're going to make your home child friendly as they have attempted to do this is a layup. 2. Add rugs to the downstairs. The downstairs is completely tile and gives off summer camp vibes compared to the much nicer hardwood on the second floor. 3. Master bath shower leaked and had to keep towels around it's it constantly. 4. Lots of ants downstairs. This should be easy to address. ***The neighbors were installing a new fence the entire week and ruined our ability to truly enjoy the screened in porch and private pool due to noise, privacy, and saw dust. The work crew was friendly and I understand there's not much anyone could do about this. However, I do believe the HOA should install some sort of policy that requires neighbors to inform adjacent properties prior to construction being done so that property management teams can warn guests accordingly. This may be the case already and we just got duped. Who knows.

Summer beach trip 24
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall enjoying staying in Rosemary Beach. The house was just okay and would not rent this house again. The beach here is very crowded and there was a lot of smells seaweed on the beach. Very surprised that they don’t groom the beach daily. The HOA has a monopoly on beach chair rentals which are pricy and there’s very little room to bring your own stuff. We usually drove to Grayton state park. Much less crowded. Will probably not stay in Rosemary again.

A Stay at Captain Jack Cottage
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an overall wonderful experience! We loved the proximity to shops and restaurants and the cleanliness and safety of the area. The property was clean and ready for check-in when we arrived and the property manager checked on us daily via text so if we had a concern or need, they took care of it right away. I do wish there had been lighting on the screened porch ~ It was a perfect place to begin and end the day!

Captain Jack Cottage Review
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than 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: Overall, the location was good for not being right on the beach. It was a short walk to everything. The home itself was worn out in some places but not too bad. Kitchen cabinets, table and pots/pans have seen better days...and there was a hole inside the microwave. Scuffed up walls, and dirty floors when we arrived. Stained patio cushions.. The management company was quick to respond. Overall it’s in a safe nice neighborhood and fit the needs of our stay...just not in pristine shape anymore.

Awesome stay
This was a great location - easy to walk to all the shops and dining. We loved the heated pool. The communication with the property manager was fantastic. We had everything we needed. We did not use the beds in the crows nest for sleeping - as some of the other reviews noted, it was a little warm (it would be nice in colder times of the year up there) - everywhere else in the house was nice and cool to stay. Overall, it was a fantastic place to stay and I would pick it again.

Wonderful stay!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at Rosemary in the captain Jack cottage. The house was clean and had what we needed for our stay. However, I wasn’t a fan that the only way we could get into our house when left locked was through the back pool door. It would have made it so much more convenient having a key code on the front door as well, That was the door we primarily used. The pool alarm is a bit obnoxious, about gave my toddler a heart attack when we first got there and opened the back door without thinking of pushing the alarm button first when we arrived. I understand that it’s required but a different sound that wasn’t ear piercing would be nice. Finally , there should definitely be a ceiling fan in ALL rooms. It got pretty toasty at night in the bunk room where my daughter slept. Overall we enjoyed the house and the location was great and parking was easy with our truck.

Amazing trip to Rosemary
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 really enjoyed our trip to Rosemary and the house was the perfect size for 5 of us (3 kids). When we first arrived, there was a small issue with the pool cleanliness, but the 30A team was fantastic at resolving and our kids LOVED the pool. The house was stocked nicely, wish they would give 1 more garbage sack so dont forget to bring some. The house was clean and our kids really loved going to the 3rd story to look out. We highly recommend this house and would like to thank the staff of 30A for being responsive and kind with resolving our questions.

Perfect Beach House Family Getaway
Property was recently renovated with new appliances, paint and tile flooring on the main level. Everything was clean and worked as it should. All the amenities you would expect with some nice extras. Heated pool was great. Short walk to beach, indoor pool, tennis courts, fitness center and restaurants/coffee shops. Great place to take your family, will definitely be back!

Perfect location and size
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: Captain Jack Cottage is a great location. Park your vehicle and walk/bike to everything you need. Even the beach is only an easy 5 minute stroll away. The room set up in this rental is great with the bedrooms on the lowest level, kitchen and living room on the second, and a crows nest that kids are sure to enjoy. Had all the basic things you'd expect a host to provide and instructions were clear and up-to-date. Super easy check out process as well, which we really appreciated (take out the trash and start the dishwasher). Having a pool was really important to us, and this cottage didn't disappoint. We were swimming in it everyday--great place to cool off and hang out with the family. Definitely would stay here again.

The house was very clean and furnishings were nice; kitchen very well stocked. The bedrooms are a little on the small side but the other living areas were very spacious. We enjoyed starting our mornings in the cupola (aka Castle). Short walk to the beach, pools, tennis, shopping, dining. Chris and his staff were genuinely interested in making sure all our needs were met and came through on all. We will definitely be back - Rosemary is such a beautiful place!

The pool is well maintained and great to have right in your own backyard. The location is truly EXCELLENT. Right across the street from the fitness center and pool. It's also less than 5 minutes to the beach, the other pools and great coffee. I can't say enough about the great location. The management company was great although the best part was I never needed them. Their app gave me EVERYTHING I needed and was easy to use. As another guest pointed out the house isn't huge but is exactly as described. It was great for 5 of us

Great family holiday
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is perfectly situated and we loved everything about Rosemary Beach and the accommodation. It was great having the pool, which is small but totally fine. The 30A app worked well for us and we really appreciated having the bikes. It would have been useful to have had different sized bikes as they were all too big for my son and we ended up renting one for him. We would definitely recommend the house/RB and we would come back again. My only criticism (and I should note that this did not bother anyone else in my family) was that is was not super clean. The fundamentals were fine i.e. baths, sinks and bed linen etc. However, skirting boards, cupboard doors (and even some wall areas) in every room could have been dusted and wiped. It needed a more robust clean, in my opinion. Overall, a fabulous family holiday.

Chris with 30A Luxury Vacations was great to work with. The house was close to all of the restaurants, shops and a 5 minute walk to the beach (along the boardwalk). The house was clean and had all of the basics we needed. The set up was great for our family of 5 (3 children, ages 8, 5 & 3) and we loved having the pool right there. Highly recommend!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time staying in Rosemary Beach and it was wonderful. The Soul del Sol Cottage was plenty big for my family of 4 and my brother in law and his wife. We thoroughly enjoyed having the pool at the home for us to use as we have a 5 year old and a 6 month old. Home is kept well and 30A properties was on top of anything that we needed. A nice little walk to the beach daily along with walking distance to all the shopping and dining that you could want. Looking forward to the Fall or 2015.

Great property, underwhelming management
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, a great property in an excellent location. However, we travel from the UK every year to various locations in the US and this is the only property we have rented that doesn't have an information sheet for guests with basics details of locks, tv operation, water (heat slow) etc etc. It was also the 'saddest welcome' pack we've ever been provided... we have found all previous rentals to be fully stocked with cleaning products (including dishwasher tablets) , tea , coffee, extra toilet paper, salt/pepper etc as the bare minimum. We also found the floors and showers were not particularly clean on check-in which was disappointing. Lots of dark hair in the master shower. Maybe you would consider a lower cleaning fee for guests who are only staying a couple of days. We found the charge to be unreasonable for a 3 night stay, given that we cleaned the floors and showers on arrival and that a 2-3 (max) hours clean is all that would be required on our departure? Again the usual fee we have paid for a 3 night stay is at most $125I would like to say again that the property was lovely. But the above points plus the $ 45 of phone calls we had to make on the day of arrival tinged our overall image. (Also if you are nearly 25 mins late when arriving to let in guests, an apology would be suitable)
