Reviewer Comments:
The rental was in great shape, with lots of amenities including beach chairs and fishing poles. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of room for gathering as a family. The promise of free golf and discounts didn’t prove helpful as none of it was very close. The golf carts were a great addition and we enjoyed using them rather than the car. All in all it was a great experience!
The home is lovely and cozy. Amazing location in the Laurel Grove community. Great open space with a very trendy Hemingway vibe. Provided an amazing and needed respite.

Reviewer Comments:
We love staying there. The staff is great. We have stayed several times and always have golf cart issues. They don’t have time in between renters to maintenance them properly. They always help the best way they can to keep them running which we appreciate but they need to be completely gone through or replaced. The location is great. I would have given them 5 stars but just get frustrated with the carts. We specifically rent the properties that come with carts since we enjoy them so much
Loved everything about our stay - great area, amenities , and property management staff - definitely recommend and will stay here again !

Fantastic home in a perfect location! Check-in was a breeze, and the house was stocked with everything we could possibly need—and more. The golf carts were a huge hit and made getting around so easy. We were able to reach just about anywhere local in minutes. Highly recommend!

This was our 2nd time staying in Laurel Grove and absolutely love it. This location rental was perfect and we will absolutely choose this particular rental for future stays due to the outstanding golf carts and fishing in back yard.
Quiet neighborhood next to the pool, hot tub, gym, and lake. Sandestin is a wonderful and beautiful place with heated pools, activities, restaurants, beach, etc. just a golf cart ride away. Golf cart has plenty of battery and is plenty fast. House is nice, clean and fully stocked if you want to cook. Destin has fantastic restaurants and tons of fun stuff to do

Beautiful property
Very clean, well-stocked and spacious. We stayed with two adults, three teens and a 7 year old and were very comfortable. The furniture was new and very nice and all the appointments were first-class. Location was perfect for us as well. If I could improve one thing it would be to add air conditioning to the second floor. There's one bedroom and one bath up there and they get very very hot. But overall we loved the place. Thanks for a great stay.

I took my two teen kids and their friends. It was the perfect spot to stay away from the busy crowds but had very easy access to the beach, restaurants, night life, and shopping. The golf carts are a must have and makes it to where you don’t even need to drive your car your entire stay. Jason and Dave were both very responsive to texts and we will definitely be back again!

Pros: House was nice, the neighborhood is great. We love the golf carts and the beach equipment provided. Cons: The upstairs bedroom is 1 bed short ! It has 1 queen bed and a twin bed. It does not have a trundle bed. In the closet there is a air mattress but it doesnt hold air. The beach was completely packed, as tight as stadium seating. We found a public beach down hwy 98. It was fantastic! Huge shallow area for kids. Parking just off the road.

We’ve stayed at the Sandestin once before in a different area but I really enjoyed this area. The golf cart came in handy to go to the beach and also to travel back and forth to the restaurants at Baytowne wharf . I actually slept better at this rental than I do at my own house. I would stay here again. Also of note- they have a container out back with various pool items. Boogie boards, chairs, sand toys- so don’t run out and buy any.Thank you for a great stay!

Hello,
Thank you for you wonderful review. We are so happy you enjoyed your vacation to its fullest! We look forward to having you stay with us again soon!
Thanks, Jalayne
This house met all our needs. Two moms, a group of 17 year olds and a puppy. The bedrooms were spacious along with the bathrooms. The boys had the upstairs and never bothered us moms downstairs. The location was perfect-quiet is the understatement-we had the pool near us and the lake directly behind us. The only issue we had is we tried to catch the tram to/from the beach and Wharf but because we didn't have an actual key to the house-we were not able to ride on it. That was a little frustrating. We will definitely be back and actually already looking at dates in the future.

Thank you for your 5 star review. We are so happy you loved the house and location. It really is perfect! We do not provide tram access as previous guests reported preferring to us the golf cart. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
This was our second time renting this property. We had another great vacation. We only had a problem with the golf cart and batteries needing to be refilled with water due to old batteries and actual replacing while we were there. It kept us from using it one day and it actually died on us. Silver lining, Jason, the property manager was awesome. He did a great job helping with water, resetting the battery indicator, and actually buying all new golf cart batteries and changing them. Big kudos to the property managers. They answered our calls every time. We will definitely be back

Hi Marc,
We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. We work hard to address any issues that arise in a timely manor. We look forward to having you stay again soon.
Thanks
We really enjoyed the stay. Had issues with the golf cart lights not working. We messaged the manager but did not get resolved. The other issue I had being a tall person, there are areas of the house that are not clean. Dusty areas, spider webs or splatters that would not normally be seen by someone, but a taller person has issues with.
Fortunately when we were at the house, rain was frequent and helped cool the property. However, not being able to turn the AC below 72 caused the rooms to be stuffy.
A few issues overall, might stay again but given the option, would stay elsewhere.

Hello,
Thank you for your review. It was my understanding that the issue with the golf cart lights was resolved.
I am not very tall so I do not see some of the taller areas. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, we will have a tall person walk through the house. We wish you would have brought this to our attention during your stay so we could have resolved the issue.
This property has 2 air conditioning units. This is an amazing benefit to this house. The upstairs is able to be kept cool without having to freeze out the people downstairs.
Thanks, Jalayne
