Thanks so much for your review. We are sorry for the missing umbrellas and disposal failure. And the rainy weather was surely a disappointment. Thankfully the 1st 2 were rectifiable and the weather cleared up as well. You are a lovely family and wonderful guests! We hope you will visit again in the future.

Our extended family of 11 enjoyed the beautiful Sol LaRu beach front home. The host was wonderful and maintained contact from beginning to end. She contacted me within an hour after our family left the home with a picture of jewelry that our granddaughter left. Upon arrival the home was clean and had all of the amenities needed to enjoy the beach and the home. Everything was just as described through VRBO. The host made immediate contact after the booking and responded to every question and call throughout the process. This home was very well kept and the ocean was the backyard. The home is located in a very quiet cul-du-sac. Each bedroom had a bathroom and the great room had plenty of room for our family to enjoy meals and time together. We enjoyed every minute of our vacation in Pensecola Beach and this peaceful beach front home and plan to return.
Ruth was an excellent host.
The house and the furnishings were just as described. This home had a very short walk to the beach. No boardwalk to cross dunes.
Saw so many dolphins most days!
Very enjoyable week!

This was the perfect home for our family vacation! Each bedroom had it's own bathroom and balcony access. The kitchen had everything we needed ti cook for a large group. The view from the balconies was amazing. The sandy area outside the house was perfect for family football games. The best part of all, a beautiful beach right outside the door and down a short path. We loved our week at Pensacola Beach and can't wait to do it again!
Thank you Ruth and Lee for sharing your beautiful home!

The Sol LaRue beachfront home provided our 3 generational family with magnificent views and immediate access to the gulf in a spacious well-appointed home. The many amenities provided included a large well stocked modern kitchen (notable for 2 dishwashers!) and generous access to a sizable collection of beach gear that made our beach vacation both relaxing and memorable. The host, Ruth, was very attentive providing an excellent introduction to the property as well as an immediate response and resolution of a maintenance issue that arose during our visit.

Dealing directly with Ruth was a pleasure and a big advantage. She was very responsive and went above and beyond what was expected to be sure we were satisfied. The house is in a section of Pensacola Beach that is not crowded. We had the entire beach in front of the house to ourselves all week. The house is well kept and very functional. The ground floor / outside area was also very functional. No complaints! Thanks Ruth.

Everything was lovely. The only thing we were not happy with was the bed in the master bedroom. Everything was so high end, but the bed in the masfer was a double! The .mattreas was not good, and thhe head of it tipped downwards. Did not make for a good night's rest.

Dear Carol Laird,
Thank you for your comments. We always appreciate the feedback and are grateful that it’s usually excellent. The master bedroom has a queen bed, not a full size bed, which is a smaller measurement. Our beds are exactly as described on the VRBO page. We have actually had people ask us for the mattress brand because it was the best thing they ever slept on. But bedding is very personal. I myself have a compressed nerve and chronic back pain which is why we bought that Tempurpedic mattress.
We are glad that you otherwise enjoyed our home with your family, and hope that your next vacation home bedding will be more suitable for your needs.
Thank you again and best wishes.
Ruth Evans-Rebalko
The house was in an excellent location a short distance from the restaurants and shops. The beach was a lot less crowded which was perfect since we had 3 small children. The house itself was very clean and up to date. It was well stocked with cooking accessories and towels and linens. Of most important the air conditioning kept the house cool and comfortable all week. There were also plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys available to take to the beach.
Dealing with Ruth thru the reservation process and checking in and out was very efficient. She was a delight to work with. Everything went very smooth. The house is better than advertised.

This house is beautiful and the location was absolutely perfect for us! The house is located further down Pensacola Beach from the main action and high rise condos and hotels. The house is located right on the beach and it felt like we had a private beach to ourselves. The bedrooms were spacious and spotless. The view from the main living area was incredible! The kitchen and pantry were well stocked with everything our family of six adults and two children would need for a week's stay.
Our host, Ms. Ruth, was very attentive and responsive. We had a couple of minor house issues that were handled quickly and with little to no interruption to our activities.
I would highly recommend this house for families who would like an awesome beach view, beach access, and lots of space to breathe.

Thanks so much for taking the time to review your stay. We try hard to make everything comfortable for a wonderful family experience and truly appreciate your comments. Wishing you a great rest of the summer. Please let us know anytime we can assist.
My family and I have been going on beach vacations since we were kids. Since becoming adults, we have not stayed at the same beach twice, let alone the same house. We loved this experience so much we booked again next year! Ruth was amazing with communication and making sure we were enjoying our stay.
With 4 family's staying in one house it still did not seem to crowded. The main floor is open concept right out to the front porch. The loft area is great for kids and board games during rainy times and still gives a view of the ocean.
Everyone was ecstatic about the amount of personal beach space this property provides, we had room to set up all the chairs and ground mats we needed, still play soccer along the beach and not be in anyone else's way! I absolutely recommend staying here if you can find dates available!
