Beautiful home with 5 bedrooms including carriage house. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. They had bicycles and a golf cart for use around the neighborhood. We rode bikes to the Big Chill and used the golf cart to go to the beach. We hired people to set up beach chairs since we were a family of 7 adults and one infant. We rented a crib for the baby and it made it so easy. Everything was beautifully maintained and it even had an elevator for luggage and groceries We would stay there again!!

Wonderful Family Vacation

Our group of 10 enjoyed this beautiful and spacious home. The proximity to the beach was very walkable. The beach itself was very nice and not overcrowded. We initially had a few minor issues that we reached out to the property manager about. The property manager was prompt in her response and quickly addressed the issues which was much appreciated. Overall, it was a wonderful stay!

Positives: Great location and beautiful house for large families. Great communication with property manager. Bonus that 4 bikes and cart come with house, though the bike lock code provided on check-in was not correct. Negatives; Very poorly equipped kitchen for such a nice house (had to buy a spatula and 2 dishtowels) and poorly equipped bathrooms (some rooms only had 1 bath towel); some broken fixtures; furniture was worn and looked like it had been rented; and upstairs drain on dishwasher/sink had a very strong and offensive foul sewer odor that could not be fixed despite prop manager sending cleaning tablets. I would rent this property again but be prepared to bring some of your own items that should otherwise be provided with such a premium property.

Overall was a great trip in nice home. Few minor hiccups but owner was responsive in resolving. Kitchen could be stocked a little better. Felt like we had to go to other kitchens to gather items, although not the end of the world. Hooks in bathrooms would be nice to hang towels. Enjoyed our stay at this nice home!

Perfect home for families or couples

We had a two week stay in this gorgeous home. Having the bedrooms located on several floors , plus a carriage house, was very conducive to privacy and comfort. This house is a very short distance to the beach, which was the most uncrowded we have been to on 30a. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything we needed. The crows nest has beautiful ocean views and is the perfect place to see the sunset. The Watersound neighborhood is gorgeous and would be hard to top! Highly recommend this gorgeous home!

Incredible property

We had an amazing time while staying at this beautiful property. My only complaint is that the kitchen did not seem adequately furnished with plates, bowls, glasses and servingware. There were no serving platters or bowls of any type and I had to purchase my own to have what I needed for serving meals.

The home is gorgeous and perfectly situated in Watersound. Walking distance to the beach. Bike to the Hub. We had a delay during the check-in process and some minor maintenance issues, all of which were promptly addressed. The owner, Karen, was extremely helpful. Handy man, Kevin, was outstanding. Would unquestionably rent again. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Geiger

Host profile image
I love hosting fun groups who value their privacy and seclusion in an Ocean Front Gated & Secure Community along Hwy 30A. Watersound is best known for the longest private beach, accessible by Golf Cart unlike any other communities. The pristine tall white dunes look like a fairy tale as the winding boardwalks allow one to enjoy the beauty of nature. Our private beach is never more than 1 row deep of guests, all enjoying long walks for over a mile as far as Deer Lake State Park and Camp Creek Lake. It is the epitome of the best nature offers.

Why they chose this property

Watersound is the only gated 24-hour Security Ocean Front Neighborhood, with 2 private pools, a Beach Club for its Owners, 2 restaurants, many parks over 1400 total acres, a rare Coastal Lake to enjoy kayaking directly to the ocean, and of course winding romantic boardwalks all leading to the pristine private beach. There is no other place so special where nature abounds, where privacy is sacred, and where families abound to enjoy the ultimate vacation at the beach

What makes this property unique

This property was custom designed by renowned Harrison Designs of Atlanta, GA. The Owner hand-selected this bike-path lot, that offers extreme privacy 4 Homes off the Beach. The 4-story Tower offers the best Gulf Views around, where one can work or play all day and enjoy the water views. Then there is the Gourmet massive Kitchen that has 2 additional islands, Sub-Zero/Wolf Appliances, two farmhouse sinks, 2 dishwashers, seating for 4 at island, then a private dining area with hand-made brick wall and 200 year old beams. This kitchen deserves a private chef for the most incredible dining experience (we recommend Chef Kali). Or kick back, don’t cook, just order take-out. Enjoy also the home’s 2 other kitchens. The first floor kitchen overlooks the pool and boasts a coffee bar, cooktop, full fridge, dishwasher, and farmhouse sink area. Then the Carriage House has its own kitchen for its guests to enjoy. Overall, the 5 master suites with en-suite bathrooms offer spectacular privacy as though each couple have their own oasis. The 3 story elevator allows quick access to all 3 floors plus tower and allows ease for our older visitors to move around the home. The best feature of home is the outdoor living spaces with 2 screened porches, a massive Tower, a connector to Carriage House, 2 other porches off Master Suites, and a Front porch bordering the Boardwalk. Take the Gulf Cart all the way to the beach, no need to walk. And lastly, the rare two 12’ Rain Walls provide amazing relaxing sounds as you sit by our private pool.
