Watching the birds from the screened in porch

Even though it was cloudy and rainy during our stay we loved sitting out in the screened in porch watching the rain and all the birds. Being so close to the water was amazing! Loved the house!

We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the bay side. Literally a few steps from the bay. We were able to fish from the back yard! Great screened porch and rooftop patio

Comfortable relaxing visit

My gf and I stayed here for 5 weeks. She worked remotely and I fed the seagulls. You are about 5 feet from the water and about a 25 minute walk from Baytowne Wharf . Condo furnishings were comfortable. Wifi was excellent for my gf. Would stay again

Peaceful with Gorgeous View

We absolutely loved the condo. The view of the Bay was beautiful. It is tucked back away from traffic and is truly spacious & peaceful. Wake up to the birds, maybe catch an occasional view of dolphins as they pass by.The property of Sandestin is huge, so just be prepared to drive or wait for the tram to get to pools or the beach. Teens might prefer oceanfront, but this is perfect for anyone who wants to be away from the hustle and bustle.Neighbors were amazing as well.

Naveen, we are really happy you all enjoyed your stay with us! We are sorry about the inconvenience of the torn screen and sofa. We appreciate you letting us know so we can get it taken care of right away! That screen was just replaced a couple of weeks ago but we will get our team out there today to repair it again. This is the first time any guest has mentioned the living room sofa as "old". We apologize it wasn't what you were expecting; however, we will definitely forward this information to the owner and also verify the sofa is in perfect shape for our guests. We would love to have you come back again in the future! Thanks for your input, we value it.

Memorial Weekend 2024

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: Enjoyed our stay over the holiday. The three king beds were a plus. There was so much to do that we didn’t have to leave the resort. Since it was Memorial Day weekend and the crowds were crazy we chose to spend our days by the pool which was close to the condo. The best part of our stay was the patio! We started & ended our days there. The breeze off the bay and the sound of the water will take away your stress.

Sweet condo

This was a sweet condo. Just perfect for the 6 of us. We had plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. We will rent again. The only minor issues were the ice maker and the toilets flushed very slow. My husband is a master plumber and he fixed the flow valve on one of them. That resolved that one. The ice maker has a drip causing the ice to freeze in one big clump. But those were very minor issues Overall it was an excellent place to stay

A Fall Beach Trip to Sandestin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great trip to Sandestin. The weather and the beach were perfect! Here are the pros and cons of the condo. The Pros: - the condo is in a beautiful location on the bay. We enjoyed fishing right outside of the condo and we loved watching the pelicans do their own fishing. -Gibson runs a great operation. It is perfect combination of friendly staff and an excellent use of technology. Cons: -the carpet in the condo was dirty. It is a beautiful condo but it was hard to see past the dirty carpet. It put a question mark over the cleanliness of the entire condo. -the sofa was broken down and was basically unusable. -the condo is two story but it only has one HVAC unit which made it difficult to keep it comfortable downstairs and upstairs.
Response from VrboOwner on Mar 24, 2020
We are terribly sorry to hear about the sofa and carpet. We had no idea the sofa was broken or unusable. Did you call us? We would have been happy to help in any way possible. Our inspectors are checking on the situation right now. The carpets are due for a cleaning since peak season has just ended. We just need a couple vacant days to get it done. We're so sorry you had this experience. Unfortunately, during the hot summer months, it isn't the easiest to keep a large home cool. Normally the HVAC system does a great job, however, the heat the past couple of weeks has been extra spicy. We could have also brought a couple of fans to help out with air circulation. Thankfully, in spite of the inconveniences, y'all loved your time here and made the best of your vacation. We appreciate your honest review and are hope you'll give us another opportunity next year.

Bayfront disappointment

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rented property for a month based on quality of view and privacy. Unfortunately, condo was under renovation/construction, with many invasions of privacy (persons frequently on the upstairs balcony and enclosed porch; persons on ladders at window level). Views were blocked by workers and windows/porcg were taped and covered - blocking the view. Grounds were frequently covered in construction debris and unkempt. Management did not come to inspect and did not address concerns. Was never notified when cinstruction would be occurring, despite many requests.
Response from VrboOwner on Dec 7, 2021
Thank you for your review. We are very disappointed in the experience that you described, as we can understand how frustrating construction projects can be. During your stay we contacted the Northshore Homeowners Association to ask that their construction workers respect our guest privacy and security, but noted that there may be times when construction workers must access the roof area for the building renovation. Although we do not maintain the construction project, we worked with the HOA to give you an outline of the construction schedule during your stay. We also explored other properties for you to move to if you wished, waived our cancellation costs, and applied a credit to your account for the inconvenience. We are sorry that your experience fell short of expectations, and should you give us another chance to earn back your trust we would love to give you the experience that so many of our guests have grown fond of.
