The property was great, the only thing I would have changed about the house is the downstairs bedroom, instead of bunks they need a big bed for older folks or people that have trouble climbing stairs.

Villa Lago - Sandestin

We had a great stay at the Villa Lago unit. It was very clean and the house is well laid out. The living and kitchen areas are open which is great and the bedrooms are all well appointed and perfect retreats. The ability to use the golf cart to go to the beach, grocery store, pools and Baytowne Wharf is a huge bonus. The back porch with the chairs, overhead fans and Weber grill was used often.
