Wow. Just...Wow

We absolutely loved our stay. The location was amazing - so close to the beach and community pool, close proximity to The Hub, Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach, etc., and was so quiet and comfortable being in a gated community. We also loved being right across the street from Bruno's, a great pizza joint with live music and a stellar lunch buffet. The house was equally great, and accommodated our large group (16 at one point) very well, with ages from mid-60s to 5 years old. Comfortable beds, large bathrooms and kitchen, great seating areas, a lovely back porch and pool. Lastly, the host was super communicative and helpful. Would definitely book again.

Perfect girls weekend getaway

This house is such a gem in a beautiful community. It was so nice having our group of girls be able to all stay under one roof and have all the amenities to suit everyone’s needs. The kitchen is spectacular and well appointed. The pool is lovely. The community is fantastic and the house comes with a golf cart to explore the grounds. You aren’t able to leave the neighborhood in the golf cart, but that was fine for us. The beds were comfy and spacious. We had no complaints and would love to come back. Our only feedback was that we didn’t see until check in that the house does not include beach towels (plenty of beach chairs and a small cooler, however) so make sure to bring your own. Thanks for having us! Your home is wonderful.

Beautiful but needs attention

House is lovely & convenient to all 30a attractions. Pros Comfy beds Each bedrm has a bathroom Golf cart Dbl dishwashers Gated community Helpful to know One of the beds is accessed external balcony No ice maker Beach is a solid walk away, which we enjoyed, but might be a challenge with children Golf cart can drive on boardwalk Challenges Concerns in previous reviews have not been corrected Pool door alarm went off when we arrived for over an hour due to dead batteries. Eventually corrected but it was a rough start. The keyed lock is tricky and inconvenient. The AC on the third floor was broken the entire first night. AC repair guy came the next day but first night was miserable. No hot water until about 10pm the first night. Deep clean needed. Not enough outdoor furniture. We couldn’t enjoy balcony due to lack of seating. Several bathrooms didn’t have bath mats. Primary bathroom shower drain was badly clogged. Bathrooms need towel hooks or racks A pool guy showed up unannounced in backyard Water pressure is poor and water temps (once we finally had hot water) was hard to regulate: showers were either very hot or very cold. Could not use the outlet in 2nd flr bath as hairdryer would blow fuse. Poor bath lighting for makeup Lovely home but needs attention. The host was responsive to correcting the broken AC and alarm but we didn’t feel the experience justified the cost of our stay and unfortunately would not recommend unless the concerns were addressed.

Business Group Retreat

This house is beautiful and very clean. We had 6 couples stay here and everyone had their own room and master bath. We didn’t even need to use the guest house over the garage. The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows. Every room was beautifully decorated and the bathrooms were huge. The kitchen is well equipped with two dishwashers, plenty of dishes and cookware. It was made to entertain large groups. The living room was super comfy with lots of seating for everyone to gather. We also had plenty of dining space between the dining room table, island bar, and porch. The community is beautiful with wooded trails throughout and easy access to the beach. It is very close to Seaside and wonderful restaurants. The Big Chill is within walking distance and is a great place to grab a meal out. Linda was very easy to reach if we needed anything and even offered to bring us ice when I let her know the ice maker wasn’t working. We loved our stay at this beautiful home! Even though we were “working” while here, it was easy to feel like we were in vacation mode.

Wonderful House!

My family and I stayed here for a week and we all absolutely loved everything about this house. All of the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook meals, and the beach is just a short walk away. The third floor has a cute little kitchen and dining area that was perfect for when we needed a little space from everyone else lol. We would love to stay here again if we come back to the area.

Perfect Vacation Home

Our family - 8 adults and 5 children - stayed here for the second time - everything was perfect. The home is spacious and clean - massive kitchen was nice for our crowd. We liked gathering in the shaded area out by the pool (with a cool water feature). Golf cart was a great asset to cart our team to the beach and pool. The community pool was fun and had a great grill for lunch. Another relaxing vacation in the books. Thank you!!!

Nice house BUT

I’ll start off saying the house is a great house. But there was plenty it lacked. For the hefty price paid for a week you would have expected a little more. There were things that were out of the owners control. A toilet leaked, reached out to the owner and a plumber came the next day to fix it. There were issues with the trash being picked up. Evidently it’s a neighborhood issue with WM so I get that. A bedroom on the 3rd floor lacked a tv. Same bedroom had outlets that didn’t work. 3rd floor kitchen lights didn’t work. Not sure why. Mirrors in the bathrooms were extremely small. There is a hook up on the 3rd floor for washer and dryer, but no washer and dryer. The WiFi was horrible. Not much cell service in the house so we did rely on WiFi which constantly went in and out on TVs tablets and phones. Hot water takes forever to get to the showers. The shower handles spin infinitely so it’s hard to figure out the sweet spot for hot water. The main kitchen freezer has no working ice maker. The freezer also doesn’t get super cold. Ice cream stayed soft. Outside porches have hook ups for tv, but none mounted. I feel this house could be superior to others, especially with the amounts of bedrooms. Unfortunately it just lacks of lot that would have been nice to know ahead of time. All in all we had a good time (minus water being dirty at the beach a few days)

A wonderful family time

The house is gorgeous and the owner was so gracious when we had questions. Everyone had a place of their own. The pool was probably the "highlight" of the day....coming back from the ocean, they could still sit by the pool to relax. The gourmet kitchen was wonderful for meal prep. We had such a wonderful time. thanks again and again.

Memories for a Lifetime

We stayed at this beautiful property for a total of 16 days, and we will always treasure the memories we made! We invited family and friends from all over the country for a family reunion, and it was the perfect layout for entertaining. The kitchen/dining was the perfect gathering place for the whole group to come together, and the owners were kind enough to put up a Christmas tree in the living room for us. It was so special. The short walk/bike to the beach within this gorgeous gated community was idyllic with the other stunning homes all around, the kids playing in the little park, and folks walking their dogs. Everyone we met was so friendly! Bruno's pizza is a stone's throw from the house, and we definitely enjoyed more than our fair share of delicious pizza. The owner and property manager are lovely to work with and highly communicative. For any little matter that arose, they handled it with immediacy. What a dream. We've stayed in a lot of VRBO's, and this experience topped the charts for us. The 30A area is loaded with tons of family-friendly activities and lots of services to make your vacation even more special (like personal grocery shoppers and bonfire specialists). It's somewhere we'll be returning to again and again! Thank you for everything, Karen and Linda!

Great place to stay for our big adult getaway

We had a wonderful weekend with friends at this property. There was one small hiccup at check in but Karen was quick to help us resolve the issue and was very accommodating throughout our stay. The house is beautiful, and there was plenty of space for our large group to spread out. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were very spacious. We love the Watersound neighborhood. It is so quaint and quiet. We will definitely be back.

Watersound is THE place to be

We've been coming to the 30a area for 12+ years and as it has gotten more crowded it can sometimes be difficult to enjoy the beach. Well, staying in Watersound solves that and more. Wonderful community, great pool, great beach access, great location. This property is also great - sleeps a lot of people, stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds, carriage house is great and overall it just has a lots of perks. Highly recommend.

Great home (spacious) in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood. Golf cart was a must so thank you for providing. We loved the pool and outdoor seating area. Kitchen lacked a few basics - drinking glasses - and outdoor friendly dishes but we totally made do. Our hosts were very responsive to any questions we had.

Beautiful home & weather

We had a wonderful trip with 11 girls this past weekend. The home was beautiful, spacious, and clean. We loved how peaceful it feels! Our only comments regarding room for improvement are below: - We love that there was a pool alarm to keep children safe. It buzzes loudly whenever a door opens. As mothers, we greatly appreciate this! We would have liked a bit more instructions to go along with how it operates. One time it went off at 6 am without anyone opening any doors. - The garage door wouldn’t unlock and so we could not use the golf cart. The homeowner was very responsive and offered to help us. - It would have been great to have a few extra side chairs on the main level or main patio just so that a whole group could sit together more easily. We borrowed chairs from the 3rd floor and brought them up & down. The many, many amazing positives outweighed these above comments. Linda and Karen were wonderful, responsive, and very helpful. We would all definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Linda Geiger

We love hosting guests from around the US, who want to vacation in an oceanfront community where they can walk to the fitness center, pools, parks, playground, restaurants and of course, the beach. I custom designed this home with Harrison Designs of Atlanta, then built the home over a 2-year period, then furnished it using an interior designer to inspire 3 generational visitors. The 3 kitchens, the amazing Tower with views for miles, and the private pool w/ Rain Wall, all were designed to offer a respite for our visitors who desire a private oasis. I hope you enjoy this amazing home, inspired by my visits to Hawaii, where indoor/outdoor living is encouraged.

Why they chose this property

Watersound is the only Ocean Front Community off 30A offering both 24 hour Gated Security, a Coastal Lake we can kayak to the beach, various parks and outdoor spaces among 1400 acres of pristine dunes and romantic winding walkways to the extensive private beach area. This is now a world renown neighborhood, recognized for its environmental safeguards, meaning we protect our beaches from erosion, we protect our sea life, we promote outdoor living, and we encourage wellness with a healthy lifestyle. Having 2 restaurants now on-site, you never have to leave the gates of Watersound, you can order groceries or take out to be delivered, or enjoy the services of a Private Chef (Chef Kali we prefer). All of this creates lasting memories for the most wonderful vacation possible along famous Hwy 30A.

What makes this property unique

This home has incredible views from its 4-story Tower, plus has the luxury of a Golf Cart to access the beach quickly, plus the amenity of a Private Heated Pool (on request) with a relaxing rare 10’ Rain Wall providing relaxing spa-like environment. This custom built property considers the needs of its visitors boasting 8 bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms, among 3 floors with 4 huge porches offering over 2000 s/f of additional outdoor living spaces. This home borders both the dog park and playground, which means additional green space around the home. It is next to the main Post Office and Bruno’s Restaurant known for its famous pizza, salads, wings and sandwiches. Best of all, it is next to Fitness Center, main gate for easy access, and by various Boardwalks all leading to the beach. It is a famous home for bringing together groups that wish to reunite their families for a special beach vacation where family meals are shared in one home, and private outdoor swimming is enjoyed by the group. We host many special Corporate Groups, Wedding Parties, Bachelorette Parties, Birthday Celebrations, as well as small family groups who seek extreme privacy with private en-suite bathrooms in 6 master suites, then a 2 bedroom rare Carriage Home with private kitchen. This home won’t disappoint your group if you want to enjoy a well laid-out home with beautiful spaces, for your very special celebrations in life.
