Of the rentals we have stayed in this neighborhood, it is was one of the most dated. With a little bit of freshening up - this place would be better as we liked the layout. The furniture, especially the couch is in sub par condition. The coffee table was extremely wobbly. The main bath shower needs refinishing as was cracked enamel. The laundry basket in the main bedroom was moldy, the bath mats and rug runner was disgusting. The main bedroom bed was horrible and able to feel the springs. The bedroom furniture is super cheap and no place to store folded clothes. Overall this place is ok and the host was super responsive. We had a great time in the area and having a golf cart is key. While we likely won't rent this house again, it certainly isn't the worst option out there. It is the beach and we weren't spending much time at the house.

Family Fun Get Away

Perfect for our family - close to beach and local attractions. Plenty of room and great kitchen! Suggest adding small rugs at entrances to capture sand. Also suggest a binder with codes, list of amenities, how/where to use the bonus card and local attractions. Thanks for a great stay!

Ruth's Gwins Family Vacation

The house was in a gated community with a lot of property rentals. The pool was heated and a big hit with the kids. The Golf cart was very useful when we went to the beach. The Kitchen had the utensils you'd need in a kitchen to make various meals. Definitely recommend and will look this unit up whenever I'm traveling to the area.

Spring break

Pretty great experience. The location and home itself were amazing.. The only thing I wish is that we had the option to gain access after it was cleaned and ready to go. We had friends across the street (different rental company) and we knew it was ready 2 hours before we were allowed access. After traveling so far it would have helped a lot!

Excellent stay!

We had a terrific stay here. Property was as described. Kitchen was well appointed with plenty of dishes and small appliances and the house was very clean. It is close to the beach and was fun to zip around in the golf cart. You do have to walk a short block from the golf cart parking to the beach entrance. That was fine for us, but just a note for anyone with mobility issues. Some days the beach parking was totally full so it was nice that this neighborhood has dedicated parking and entrance. They provided plenty of towels and cute little gift boxes of toiletries. Property management was very responsive and helpful. I would love to see the primary bath renovated--but either way I look forward to staying here again.

Great location

Good experience. Some.negatives were not having a garage door opener, the bathtub drain being clogged with hair from a prior guest, and the pool heating cost being very expensive for 3 days and not communicated at time of paying for rental. Positives were great location, golf cart access, private beach gate access, loads of pool and beach toys accessible, tons of kitchen appliances to use, and house was nice and spacious. Also when calling about gate issues the calls were answered immediately and issue was resolved. Overall I would stay again.

Nice house!

The house was just as advertised! There were only a few issues. We did not have the gate code on arrival. We didn't have beach access but not a big deal because we had use of the golf cart. Lastly, the pool alarm in the house wasn't ever mentioned and was extremely annoying! Aside from those little things, the house was great and we definitely enjoyed our stay!

Definitely a stay again kind of place!!

Property was clean and tidy! We had some hiccups with the washer/dryer but the rental company acted very fast and got a technician out to look at it. The pool wasn’t heated when we arrived, but again they acted fast to resolve the issue-they refunded us our entire pool heating fee when they couldn’t get a technician out in enough time for us to enjoy the heated pool for the length of our stay. Would definitely recommend staying here! Suggestions from tenant to renter: -have throw blankets available for tenants to use for evenings just watching TV or sitting out by the pool -have initial set up of items such as trash bags, towels, soaps available based on how many guests are staying at the property.

Destin Family Vacation

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: This is the second time we have stayed in this gated community and we love the neighborhood! The house had plenty of room. The appliances worked well. We were able to get a quick response via text if we had any questions. It was great to have a golf cart when needed. It's great to have a gated beach access, but there is no where to park the golf cart near the gate. The furniture was not the most comfortable including the beds, couches, and the outdoor patio set needed more padding. This is not a deal breaker, as we would definitely stay again. One suggestion would be to have more coasters for drinks to protect your furniture. We had a wonderful vacation and can't wait to return again.
