Loved this property
This was perfect for our family of 3. Walking to the beach was so easy. The owners had chairs, umbrellas, and everything you would need. Their water pressure was amazing. We went on a sunset cruise, airboat ride, and several of other things and this place was close enough to all of that. The only thing i would recommend is a fan for outside, just bring one with you. Loved this place.

Nice location
Location was great! Gated community with lots of amenities. It is small so 4 max but very quaint and short walk to beach and a pool 2 houses away or beach club just a short shuttle away! Nice to be away from busy gulf shores and only 15 min drive to enjoy shopping and restaurants. Beach is private to community and nice as well. True my a place you can disconnect and relax with family!

Just for fun for a few people
This place is a good option for 2-3 people. The place was pretty well supplied and has a stackable washer and dryer. The dawn-triggered watering system for the plants on the upper deck is a way to be alerted to when the sun is rising if you want to see it, because it makes a very audible noise in the plumbing system for whoever is sleeping upstairs. I learned to turn it off and wait until I was making coffee to run the system for 5 minutes while my coffee was being made. There is no fan on the upper deck so you might want to bring one to keep mosquitos at bay while out there in the evening.

Short Stay at "Just for Fun"
We spent two nights at "Just for Fun." This was the first time that we had stayed at Kiva Dunes. We liked the community. We also liked the Beach Club. It was nice to have a place to eat close within walking distance. The owners kept in contact with us and provided all needed information regarding check-in/out and was readily available to answer any questions. The Teel Family

Granddaughters trip
This was a beautiful home. Location was perfect just a short walk to the beach. Beach was so peaceful and enjoyable. The owners were so easy to work with. They sent all info on our trip ahead of time so we had no worries. Everything was perfect. The property was gated so we felt very safe. The housekeeper is a gem also.

This was my first ever time staying in something like this. It went off without any issue. The house was beautiful. Quick walk to the beach. Even got to take an outside shower. I would definitely recommend staying here.
