Couple of things that were missed on the outgoing of crew from 1 reservation to the other. We can live with them. Everything else was amazing from the booking and cleanliness of the bedrooms (A), to the instructions (A), to the amenities (A, they have a Keurig and Coffee Pot), and the rules for the property (A, very agreeable). Realjoy performed exceptionally well on all pieces. The cleanliness missed may have been on a quick turnaround time, but it did not leave us feeling like they didnt clean the place. Just 2 small things considered to be trash, they may have forgot to grab on the way out. Walk to the beach is really easy. Atmosphere was great. Families enjoying themselves at the pool which is ultra quick walk. Realjoy (VRBO) will be getting my business again. Thats for sure!

It was a perfect place to stay. The location was perfect, the agency that we dealt with when we needed something was awesome. The only thing I would say that could have been better was the cleanliness of the house. It could have been cleaned a little better. We had a great time and would definitely go back.

Great place! We had 6 adults and 2 toddlers so each couple had their own room and bathroom. Nicely decorated. Loved the jet bath tub. The pool on the property was warm enough to enjoy on cooler days. Close walk or drive to the nicest beach. Super close to lots of attractions for kids. Check-in was easy. Would definitely stay here again.

Beach Getaway!

The house was wonderful! Very clean and stock with items for us to cook. The mattresses with the exception of the bunk bed room had all been very, very firm. Other than that our stay was great! Short walk to the beach. The pool was nice and the water was a perfect temp. Overall it was a fantastic stay!

Everything was great!!

Property was everything expected and more. Comfortable bedding, clean bathrooms, great kitchen space for cooking meals daily, nice living room and dining space. Loved sitting on balcony listening to music and talking with neighboring guests. The house had a corn-hole game that my husband, sons and grandkids played daily. We enjoyed the community pool when not at the beach. Close to shopping, restaurants and other family amusement. Overall great experience.

Not perfect, but very good.

Overall the house was clean, but a lot of little things were not clean. It appears as though house keeping’s goal is to get in and out as quick as possible. I realize this is the South, so you will never get rid of roaches, but you should get your exterminator to check the first floor bathroom. This house had the best dishes, pots, and pans of any we have used. Great ice maker! Cable, TVs , and WiFi were excellent. The location is perfect. The pool is awesome. We enjoyed our stay. We had 7 adults, 2 teens, and 1 two year old princess. There was plenty of room for our family. We had a very enjoyable stay.

Welcome

Coming to this resort wasn't friendly at all. The first person is the staff patrol yelling we can't park their. We was just trying to find the different houses because we had three. We was trying to unpack the cars. That ready should have been different. She was the first person you see. No I want be back because of the harassment.

Spring Break Success

This house exceeded our expectations. Upon arrival it was super clean. The pictures do not do it justice. Everything is well kept and organized. The living room and kitchen is perfect for gatherings and meals. The beaches are all within a 3 minute uber ride, and not to mention a FREE shuttle is provided to one beach across from the crystal villages. Our friends and us agreed this will be our spring break spot going forward. Two things: despite the cockroach reviews, we saw none, but this is expected when vacationing down south. Also, a friend left behind a bunch of clothes in a drawer and will not be getting them back after several attempts of contacting realjoy, so please make sure you check all drawers before you leave!

The shuttle was an excellent perk but would be nice to know which public access you will be dropped off at. Also, had difficulty getting a hold of anyone regarding our dryer not working. It was the first time I only packed enough clothes for a few days & our dryer didn’t work. There were dishes that were dirty. The lower bathroom tub knob was broken. Also, there was a crack in the glass window off the kitchen. The bunk bed ladder was broken & the railing needed to be tightened. We really did enjoy the pool!

Since your stay a new dryer has been purchased for the home. We did some checking and could not find where you contacted us about any other issues during your stay. We will certainly forward your comments to our property management team to assess. Again, thank you for your feedback.

The house itself was fine. The problem was no power in the master bedroom which took 2 days to fix. Some short in the ceiling fan, however that never was fixed on our trip either. We were called by the management company Real Joy Vacations and told over and over how they give 5 star service. We were told we would have a refund of some sort for the problems with the master bedroom, after several months it never happened. Real great 5 star service. Don't tell me you are a 5 star service show me that you are a 5 star service which clearly they were not. Long wait times to get master bedroom fixed with no power in the bedroom or bathroom. Just kind of irritated about all of that and what they Real Joy said they would do. So that is why I have given a negative review. If you want to rent this home just beware of the management company Real Joy. Something is wrong they won't fix it in a timely manner or honor what they say when there was a problem. I would of given a higher review if it wasn't for them.

Perfect!!

Loved everything about our stay at Turquoise Waters! Described precisely. Beautiful pool very close to house. About a 7 min walk to the beach. We would drive due to having lots to carry. We’d park in the parking lots using the passport app for $5.00 a day. The walk is a tad long if you have tiny ones. It would have been nice if golf carts were allowed. Be sure to eat at Boschamps.

Great house, terrible pool

Everything about the home was great, it was clean and in a good location. However if you’re looking to relax by the pool this is NOT the place. There was a middle aged woman literally hiding behind trees watching over the pool. We were drinking bottled water at one point. Two of my girlfriends were sitting on the edge of the pool with their feet in and I was in the pool but also at the edge. The woman came out of nowhere and was so incredibly rude I was honestly mind blown. This happened twice before we were so uncomfortable that we left. Now I could understand if we were drunk and being obnoxious because it is a family friendly place, however this was not the case. After this happened I began to look at more reviews of the community and saw a lot of others who experienced the same thing. Destin is a dream and I will certainly be back, but not to this community.

Overall happy

Had to cool the house down upon our arrival which was a bit of a bummer after a long day in the heat. By morning it was cool inside though. The dryer did not work the first day but after contacting management, it was addressed and worked fine for the rest of the stay. The only issues with the property were the inability to use the bunk beds. They were extremely unstable so we put the mattresses on the living room floor for the teens sleeping there. The distance to the public beach access is a bit of a walk, which wasn't too bad, however the beach inside was very disappointing. It was a very small public area with people packed together. Only went once, then used Henderson State Park daily which was absolutely fabulous!!!
