This home was the perfect size for our family. Everyone had their own bathroom and the open concept was great for family visiting times. The house was very clean and the location close to restaurants and shopping not to mention the beach was right off the house. I would definately stay there again and would recommend this home to my friends.

It was perfect for what we wanted. Right on top of the ocean and beach. Great proximity to restaurants & walking path. Clean. Clean is priority! Mattresses encased in zip cases. Kitchen- I had to get creative to make cookies only one cookie sheet. But that’s nothing. Clean and on the beach. Quiet considering how close to the road it is. No complaints!

It was perfect for us and would recommend 100% , hope to be able to book again in the next few years for our family vacation! We loved having a quiet beach area right in front of the home , only 3 to 4 other families around on any day. Great location away from the hustle of the main areas but still close to grocery stores and such. A great plus for us was the 4 bedrooms and 4 separate baths, everyone had their own space and then main living area was great for everyone to eat and just hang out together while looking over the beach!

Wave Catcher was a perfect beach rental! Great location right on the Gulf. We had four families there with plenty of room. Everything was very clean and functional. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and dishes to prepare meals. The proximity to the beach was great, making setup super easy. It was a great week overall! We would definitely book this place again!

Wave Catcher was absolutely amazing! The house had everything in it we needed - the BBQ grill could have been updated. The only thing we were disappointed in was the TV situation of having to stream - no regular stations but all in all this was the perfect house. We will be back next year!

This is the second time we have stayed at this house. The proximity and setting could not be more perfect!! The expansive view is unbeatable! We had a bbq grill last year and it was no longer there. The lounge chairs on the deck are pretty uncomfortable but I know that anything with a cushion wouldn’t hold up. Overall, super pleased with this rental!

Great location. Close to everything but far enough for some privacy. Loved being able to walk right out to the beach from the house. We were there during busy season but had little traffic on the beach in the area. House was clean and very well stocked in all aspects. Only negative comment is I would have liked more comfortable patio furniture. Otherwise everything was great.

We regret to hear that your stay was not the best experience. We sent one of our maintenance technicians out to address the thermostat and sink issues upon your report, but we regret that the solution did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is valuable to us, especially since we made an exception to allow your early check-in request. Despite these concerns, we are pleased that you appreciated the location of the property.

We loved everything about the house on the beach. We stayed 7 days. The house is located kinda close to the public beach access. We had problem with people from public beach access trying to set their umbrellas and chairs right in front of our chairs. ( between us and the beach). We had to ask people to move on down the beach on a daily basis. Some of them were nice about not setting up in front of our chairs but some had attitudes. I’ve rented different houses on different areas of the beach for several years and this has never been a problem. Not sure if it’s just Santa Rosa area but I will definitely look at proximity of public beach access for my next stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Jul 2024
Thank you for your feedback and for choosing our beach house for your stay. We're delighted you loved everything about it! We apologize for the inconvenience with the public beach access nearby. During busier seasons, beaches can get crowded, and we recommend setting up early to secure the best spots and avoid any disturbances. Your comments are valuable to us, and we'll consider them for future improvements. We hope to host you again soon!
