We had an amazing stay! The hosts were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definitely suggest staying here. It is up near the front of the lot so the walk to the beach is about as long as it gets in this neighborhood, around 12-15 minutes BUT, the neighborhood golf cart runs about every 10 minutes to the front of the house so it’s super easy and the house it right next to the small pool in the neighborhood so that was super helpful with the small kids we had. Great place and had a great time!

Nice place to stay

It was a good clean house with plenty of space for the 11 of us. The only thing that was a surprise is they provide you with one roll of toilet paper and one garbage bag not fully stocked like every other place we have stayed. Not such a great surprise at 11 at night. Great location though and a golf cart that picks you up and takes you to the beach! The wagon with chairs and some sand toys was a nice bonus!

Excellent place to 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 stayed 6 weeks at Sunny & Share, and it was wonderful. We started with a couple of days of snow, which was beautiful next to the palm trees, and after that, the weather was beautiful. We walked to the beach, ate at the restaurants, and chilled in the spacious, relaxing home. Everything was perfect!

Great location for a family beach getaway

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 enjoyed our vacation at the beach house. The home offered all the basics needed and was clean and convenient to the pool and tram for the beach. The rental could use more bath towels as there was 10 of us and only about 1 towel each. No beach towels or pool towels are offered, so make sure to bring your own!

Family vacay

The house was very nice and comfortable. We had to contact the property manager for 2 issues which were handled right away. We were surprised to have to pay $30 for beach access when we entered the beach gate. The beds were comfortable and rooms cooled well. There is a golfcart shuttle but it didn’t run on Saturdays . Overall a nice place . We would return for a vacation.

We love this area

We’ve been coming for 6 years. We love the area and will always come back but it’s gotten crowded :( I wish there were a longer minimum stay as we had four diff groups of people stay in the house beside us. The house is clean and very nice as pictured. The cleaners certainly could clean under furniture etc. dust and sand was all under but other than that it was perfect. Would recommend as it was our fourth house to rent here and has been our favorite so far! Can’t wait to come back

Wonderful Property

Despite all the window blinds being super dusty and a few lights not working(ticket was turned in for repair but they never showed) this place was our favorite thus far and was the perfect spot for our family vacation! We loved the jetted tub the most. And the addition of beach accessories was a great surprise. The walk to the beach is a bit further than you think and you can’t drive to it and park unfortunately. Also, the security people aren’t friendly and stay on you at all times, which is good and bad. I would also suggest bringing mixing and storage bowls as there is only 2. Again, we loved this house and would stay again.

Very clean and amenity-filled property

This home was very clean and it's location was central to many things Destin has to offer. We had 5 teenagers that really enjoyed staying in one bedroom that provided 5 individual beds with a TV. The other two beds were very comfortable for us adults. All appliances were newer and worked very well. The kitchen had many utensils, blender, coffee maker, and large gas grill. Also came with a beach wagon, many toys, and 4 beach chairs. The community was gated and very clean with two pools. The home is located less than 10 minutes from the beach, but the tram was very useful getting us back and forth. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and will plan to stay here when we come back to Destin.

Okay

Property was okay. We stay at emerald shores every year and have stayed in several homes. This home was my least favorite. Very basic. Other homes had basic essentials such as spices, trash bags, extra toilet paper, etc; this home did not. Not awful, just not great. Will choose a different home next time in the same community.

Disliked: Communication
Overall great stay. Nice layout, close to second pool/pickleball court and the dollar general for little needs. Farthest street from the beach. Owner provided wagon and 4 beach chairs which was nice. We had a few issues on our first full day that we tried communicating with property management company that took awhile to get resolved with very little communication. They text you from 2 different numbers, so not always clear which to communicate too. Our main bathroom had 2 shower issues, one with drain and one with shower handle spinning. Took over 24hrs to get a response, only after a call, no response to our text though acknowledged receiving it. They gave no eta just saying they had a list of issues as we had 1 shower for 8 people. They said we didn’t have to be there but we wanted to be sure to be there as the shower handle just spun and water wouldn’t turn on (obviously stripped and needed replaced) and we had teen daughters we didn’t want alone with a service individual. Randomly showed up about 5 hrs later and didn’t replace. Just tightened with a screw driver and accused us of turning the handle too far although we called in the issue 24hrs after checkin and first showers. It is stripped & needs replaced. Also the vacuum was non-functional as brush wouldn’t turn and knob knocked in. Randomly a new one appeared inside the house after a second individual dropped off. Would’ve appreciated better 2-way communication when coming in-or completed.

Great house close to the Beach

The house was nice and clean, plenty of room for 10 of us. Wish they had better cookware. The coffee pot had a big hole and we called in the morning and they dropped off a new one in the afternoon. The fridge wasn’t cold at the beginning but we realized you had to make sure the door was kept closed. We never saw the trash pick up and we had a lot of trash so that created a mess. We understand that the cleaning crew needs time to get the homes in the condition we found them, but the 4pm check in and 10am check out took time away from our stay. Being that we were at the beach all day and having to wake up early on check out day was really draining and took away from us cleaning the house properly before we left. The beds were comfy and they had plenty of towels. Overall the house was great, we loved our stay and I would definitely stay again!

Great place despite a few inconveniences

Overall had a great vacation just not as relaxing as I would of liked due to: 1} couldnt get in at 4pm. Took 1/2 to sort out correct code to get in. 1/2 hr is long time after you get there early and have already been waiting 2 hrs. 2} Then main shower was broke did fix it next day after we informed the company 3}Then we got locked out again. Luckily I was in house when we realized. But had to be woken up to let kids in. Next day texted - Didn't respond to text so then called and did give us new code that worked just at an inconvenient time. 4) guest shower had stinky dirty water come up thru drain while showering. Did send so Some to look at it that day. I did ask on 3 different occasions for some kind or compensation or refund and have not heard anything. Good stuff - house very spacious and the main bedroom bed is super comfy!

Destin Getaway

We arrived an hour or two later after check-in due to the weather on the road. When arrived everything was clean and in place just as specified on the arrival notes. Our vacation stay was only for 4 nights. We went to the beach which was only 2 blocks away walking. Just as mentioned inside the home and on the app, you do pay a $30.00 one-time fee "if" you go before 4:00 pm. Just note: after 4:00 pm you do not have to pay that fee at all. The rental fee for umbrellas & two chairs is as well as a $30.00 additional rental fee (between the hours the beach opens until 4:00 pm). Also, we did enjoy the pool in the afternoon until 10:00 pm. Grocery stores: You will find a Dollar General at walking distance, no need to take a vehicle. We walked to the store and took a wagon with us to carry our items. For other food in the area, you will find Culver's and Mcdonald's. We shopped at Walmart and Dollar General for what we needed for the stay. Overall, we put everything back in place and departed at 10:00 am. House and bedrooms were perfect for the number of people that went...9 of us. Loved that the house had a toddler chair for our 2-year-old. Overall recommended.
