We come to Sandestin every spring break and is one of the family highlights of the year. Unfortunately the unit was double booked so we had another family come knocking on our door the first day shortly after arrival, which was very uncomfortable being they expected us to get out of the unit. Parking was a disaster, was not able to use the golf cart since they decided to inform us there was a 500 deposit upon arrival after thinking it was included based on the description of the unit (one of the main reasons we booked the unit). Furniture was in terrible shape, no extra linens and the back porch door would not lock which made us very uncomfortable being we have two young children. The unit itself was ok but felt cheap. You could tell they had taken a lot of shortcuts and the screen porch had a rip in the screen which was not a big deal but didn’t send a good first impression. Overall I would not recommend the company more than I would not recommend the unit. Felt very bait and switch from the description of the unit and amenities that came along with it. Will not be using them again.

We rented this property for the golf cart, but we were not able to use the golf cart. The key to the golf cart is stored in a lock box and we were not given the code. We had to call Real Joy in order to get the code and get the key out. Then we went to use the golf cart only to find out the brakes were in bad shape and appeared to have been that way for a while. We called Real Joy to let them know the golf cart was usable and needed repaired hoping they would switch it out with another one. Keep in mind this was on the Saturday we checked in. None of the agents that we finally talked to were able to help and said the only thing they can do is put us on a list and let a manager know and someone would more than likely talk to us once we checked out, which doesn't make any sense. On Sunday we went to ride the bicycles that are provided since the golf cart didn't work and no one has maintained these either. The seats were loose, the tires needed air and were in bad shape. So, we called back to Real Joy again about getting another golf cart and did not get any help. Monday, we went out and came back to the unit and there were a crib and highchair sitting outside in front of the front door. We again called Real Joy to let them know someone dropped these off at the wrong address. They were supposed to let maintenance know. We checked out on Tuesday and the crib and highchair were still there. Real Joy Vacations provided zero help with anything and horrible customer service.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about the frustrations you experienced during your stay, as this is not the level of service we strive to provide.
We apologize for the inconvenience with the golf cart. While we’re glad our team was able to provide the access code, we regret that the condition of the cart did not meet expectations. Your report has been shared with our maintenance team so it can be properly inspected and addressed.
We also appreciate you bringing the condition of the bicycles to our attention, as well as the unexpected delivery of the crib and highchair. While we are not certain where those items originated, they should have been promptly removed, and we apologize that this was not handled more efficiently during your stay.
Your comments regarding communication and responsiveness are taken seriously, and we will be reviewing this internally to ensure better support for our guests moving forward.
We’re glad you chose to stay with us and truly regret that your experience did not meet expectations.
We spent 7 days and it was perfect. Beautiful home for family’s. Will definitely be booking again!

We had an awesome experience staying at 5079 "on the rocks". The location was on the beachside of the complex. It also was a short walk to the pool. Real Joy representatives contact me throughout the week to ensure our stay was 5 star. The best of all was having access to the golf cart. We used it numerous times to get around the complex. I will definitely book again. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.
Great location, loved having the golf cart for trips nearby

We thoroughly enjoyed our time and stay at On the Rocks. We had easy access to a beautiful beach and multiple pools, the golf cart was so helpful getting us back and forth. The house had everything we needed for meals in and the back patio was a perfect location to end the evening.

We are purchasing in Sandestin and needed a place to stay to check out the area and explore! This location was beachside and great for walking to the beach. The view out the Master window is lovely and the bathrooms and kitchen are updated. It was decorated very cute with a perfect lounging chair for reading or watching Tv!

We had a great stay. The house was nice and the perfect setup for our family. The golf cart worked great and was very nice to have to get around the resort and to get to the beach. We would definitely stay here again. We didn’t receive the code to the key box for the golf cart key upon arrival which was annoying to have to call the office and wait on hold for 30 minutes to get the code to be able to use the golf cart, but otherwise, everything else was great!
The house was clean and smelled wonderful. The colors inside the house was inviting and relaxing. The refrigerator was clean/spotless. Easy interaction with Joy Reality. Easy access to the pond and pool.
We used the golf cart to go to the beach and Baytown.

The property was lovely. Located in a great area in reference to distance to the beach and the Baytowne Wharf. Property met all of our needs. The only thing I could say that was slightly disappointing was I wish the water got warmer/hotter when showering. Everything else about our stay was great. Plenty of room for everyone and again, the location was great. We love Sandestin!
