More about Hidden Gem Escape:
Hidden Gem Escape is a gorgeous home located in the lovely neighborhood of Gulf Pines in Miramar Beach, FL. Wrapped in porches and shaded by native oaks, this southern charmer is sure to please the entire family. This home is perfect for groups that need their own space as the ground floor can be separate from the other floors. Each floor has a master bedroom and kitchen or kitchenette and there are two separate living spaces. Come experience relaxation like never before at this hidden gem!

The first floor of Hidden Gem Escape can be utilized as a separate fully functional living unit. A spacious living room with two cozy sectionals overlook the kitchen and dining space.

Upstairs, guests will be welcomed to a southern retreat. A wrap-around veranda covers the second floor and is the perfect spot to lounge and relax. The veranda can also be accessed from the second floor master suite, which includes a king sized bed, an en-suite bathroom, and plenty of closet space. Soak away your worries in the en-suite. This bathroom features a whirlpool style bathtub and a separate walk-in shower. Additionally, a spacious kitchen and living room are the perfect place to entertain guests and relax.

A spiral staircase leads guests to the third level of this home where comfort awaits. Two additional bedrooms are located on this floor—one featuring a king sized bed, and one featuring a Queen bed and a full-over-dual-twin bunk bed—both with private access to the wrap-around veranda. A jack and jill bathroom is located between these two bedrooms and features a walk-in shower.

Seek shade from the sun while lounging on the shaded outdoor sofa or enjoy a BBQ from the grill and outdoor patio table. Plus, a complementary golf cart is included with this vacation rental.

Great trip. Plenty of room. Minor issues : hot tub heater was broken and was not informed prior. We did receive a credit however. AC on top and bottom floor did not work as well as should have. But weather was low 70s so that wasn’t too big of issue. Any hotter outside and it would have been. Only access to 2nd floor is outside to back of house. Luckily no rain at time of stay. So that didn’t bother us. We enjoyed the golf cart, bicycles , and beach chairs that was a major plus. Great location to shopping and restaurants. Beautiful view but you could not see beach from house even from the 3 rd floor.

Fantastic

I honestly had no complaints about this place. It was clean, the beach is just a short drive in the truck or golf cart away. It's surrounded by tree's and nice bushes, so it's kinda private. Kids were in the pool at like 10 a.m. everyday until we went to the beach. It was a great stay, we had a blast !!

I wish that we got to enjoy the heated pool. Unfortunately when we arrived at the house, the pool was cold. It took days of calling back and forth with the property management company just to be told that the pool heater wouldn’t be getting turned on at all during our entire stay. Mind you, it’s cold outside, and I’ve got a bunch of kids in my travel group that have all been looking forward to swimming. It was too cold for the beach, so don’t you agree it would’ve been great to have a heated pool to swim in? I was told by Five Star properties that the heater was actually broken before I ever arrived. They blamed a “break in communication” that resulted in me learning about the broken heater 2 days after arriving at the property. They didn’t seem to really care much how much this was going to affect my family’s trip. Be careful if you’re renting this house because of the heated pool. They like to advertise that, but it wasn’t really an amenity that they provided whatsoever. Don’t worry, you’ll still have to pay full amenity prices! Isn’t that fun?

The Pros: Proximity to beach is great. The included golf cart was a plus. Outdoor space was exceptional, very private.The floor design perfect for large groups needing separate space. The Cons: appears clean, but floors/windows dirty, door knobs /frames filthy. Outside: needs power wash on house/patio. Maintenance: empty planters with dead plants, rickety outside table and chairs, “hot tub” has loose/missing parts, skimmer on pool deck is tripping hazard, burned bulbs on string lights, dead bolt on lower master door broken in the locked position (no access/exit). Kitchen is woefully inadequate, limited/poor use of space, broken toaster. Originally advertised with hot tub which is connected to pool but not available unless you pay to heat. However heater is broken (reported over MULTIPLE stays). General impressions: nothing major wrong but all little things add up making price not worth value. Easy to communicate with Management Co., responsive to a reported maintenance issue, but fell well short when needing propane for grill (on principle, guest should not have to fill their own propane) Very disappointed with the communication about hot tub. Based on other reviews, perception is misrepresentation. When looking for a rental, this was a 10/10 in reviews but a second look (more came in since) comes in at 8.8/10. In our eyes, a 7/10. Having rented a couple dozen in the past, this is probably the third from the bottom due to the small details and perceived misrepresentation.
