We all loooooooved Glenda’s townhome on the sound side with a pool out the front door, the sound/beach area a few feet from the balcony and the Gulf across the street!!! Everyone is ready and wanted to go back again next month!!! If you have never booked a townhouse before…shhhhhh! I won’t tell you about all of the space and convenience that you are missing as well as time saved packing extra items and then having to drag it to your spot on the beach. SMH! Keep booking those boring one level multi rise condos that are a “2 days walk” from your space in the sky! Lol! We don’t miss that at all!! Now we did have a hiccup w the dryer but Glenda got the repair main out ASAP and got it running again. Whenever I had a question prior to or after arrival she came through with an answer within the hour. WE WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND AND BOOK AGAIN!!! Thanks, Glenda!!!

Family beach vacation
We had a great time at the beach. The beach house was wonderful, very roomy, clean, pool was great, nice to have pier access, enjoyed having the kayaks, paddleboard, and other beach supplies. Liked being near the Navarre fishing pier and restaurants. Mrs. Glenda is a great host and very responsive.

Convenience is the best description of this property: number 15 of 40 is directly across from the pool and adjacent to a great bayside beach area. These accommodations worked well for our family of 8 including a one and five year old. Review the description and photos of the property to assist with your decision. Glenda was very responsive and we look forward to working with her again.

We absolutely enjoyed staying here. Short drive to the beach and very short walk to the pool and pier. I have never stayed in a place that had a garage and that was a very nice accommodation dealing with sand!

We love staying here! This condo is beautiful and has a great view from the deck and windows. The grandchildren loved fishing from the dock and catching minnows in the sound (bay). The men loved taking out the kayaks that were provided with this unit. Glenda is a wonderful host!

Perfect Vacation
This is by far the best place we’ve ever stayed. The location a PERFECT and the townhome had everything we needed. We spent more time on the sound than the gulf. Water on the sound side was calm and perfect. Plus, it’s literally right outside your back door. The area is quiet and calm with a relaxing atmosphere. We can’t wait to go back!

Perfect Family Vacation spot!
This our second time staying at this lovely house!
Our boys live fishing off the dock , and we had amazing sunsets , even dolphins chasing fish just a few feet away! The house was the perfect size.
Also I Love the short walk to Tom Thumb and the pier.
