Spring Break with the Family

Perfect place for our group of 10 with 4 kids under 10 plus 6 adults. It is right on the Gulf. Definitely hit our favorite restaurants (Red Bar and Hurricane Oyster Bar) that were an easy walk away. Rented chairs from beach chairs 4U. Did a dolphin tour in Destin. Great time in a nice home. Comfy beds.

Perfect Beachfront Getaway!

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful beachfront home! The location was absolutely perfect—just steps from the beach and the lagoon.The house itself was ideal for our group of eight. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms, so everyone had their own space and felt completely comfortable. One of the highlights for us was the kitchen—it was fully outfitted with everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals together. You can tell the owners really thought of everything.The decor was elegant and minimalist, creating a calm, relaxing atmosphere without any clutter. It felt like a true retreat. The hosts were incredibly responsive and informative, making check-in easy and keeping aware of anything pertinent that happened during our stay.We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality beach vacation with all the comforts of home!

Fabulous Girls Trip

We stayed in both sides of the duplex for a college girls trip reunion and couldn't have enjoyed the location or homes more. The beach is very wide and private and the home is well equipped and beautifully decorated. We loved the location near Grayton Beach.

Week with the family

This was a fantastic place. We rented both East and west sides of the house the whole house we enjoyed ourselves immensely, and Rebecca with the Properties management company was one of the best girls we had ever dealt with. We want to thank them and also want to thank all the restaurants for feeding us so well such great seafood we had a great week.

Perfect location and beautiful beach

Great location and beautiful views. Well appointed kitchen, clean house and great communication with property management. The beach has been privatized so we did struggle a little with beach services, there is an exclusive chair company (that did a great job) but had to figure out SUP boards and kayaks differently than we have in the past.

Literally on the beach

Great location, close to all our favorite restaurants, clean well stocked appliances and kitchen supplies. Bathrooms were big and spacious. Beautifully decorated. Only criticism would be lower level bedroom was basically a cot looking bed and super small with shared lower level bathroom for guest. Upper bedroom’s were superb with beautiful views. We were very comfortable with 4 couples and if the other couple had come one would be disappointed with sleeping arrangements. Definitely would recommend and book again.

My Vacation Was Ruined by Pet Hair.

My great-grandson suffers with allergies. The family room rug was covered with pet hair. We suffered with him for the entire stay. We are not pet owners therefore, the pet hair was there when we got there. I was upset. We all got covered in the hair.

Great view, disappointing quality on the inside

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stay on 30A at least once a year. We have stayed in many high-end places and this is by far was the most disappointing one. The view is amazing. The overall experience was adequate. There are minor issues like the lack of bikes or beach chairs or golf cart. You can always rent those or pay extra if needed. The main concerns are the quality of the place. For example, the showerhead in our bathroom was applied with a sticky and it kept falling off. The AC broke down one day. Luckily, we were out most of the day and they were able to fix it by the evening. There are other minor issues with the quality of the place. We also spoke to our neighbors who shared the entrance with us and they had similar issues. Overall, the layout is a bit underwhelming. We enjoyed the open space on the first floor. On the first floor there was only one small bedroom. There was only one bathroom that was shared with that bedroom. The second floor had four bedrooms, two of which had you of the water. Quality of the beds were very poor. The place was adequately supplied with towels and other amenities. There was a washer and dryer and a working air fryer and a dishwasher. We also use the grill on the outside. Again we have stayed over 10+ places on 30A and I don’t think we would come back to this one. It wasn’t worth the price.In summary, the place was adequate, but underwhelming.

There was plenty of room for all and the location right on the beach was just perfect!We all enjoyed just being able to walk down in the morning and set up and enjoy the beautiful, quiet beach that includedan estuary from a lake above that the kids loved to play in catching minnows and crabs! We had gorgeous weather for our entire stay and never got in the vehicle the entire stay! So relaxing!The property manager was very responsive to our needs! They promptly responded providing a bbq propane refill and a new iron for us! They also very kindly delivered a few items to UPS to send to us that we left at the house upon departure! We all agreed this was the best beach trip ever and hope to return next year! Highly recommend!

Just what we’d hoped for

Our priority was the view and access to the beach, and common area that would accomodate 12 people at one time. This house has an unobstructed expansive view of the beach and ocean - from the living room, kitchen, dining room, and 2 MBRs, and both balconies. The living room and dining table comfortably seated our party of 12 (we borrowed 2 chairs from next door) with the main floor balcony providing an extension of the LR area and the upstairs balcony (accessed by both MBRs) providing private space to read and nap. It’s on an uncrowded stretch of the beach and only one neighboring house is visible so it feels really private. We had my 83 year old Dad with us so it was nice that there was a queen bedroom & bath on the main floor (other 4 bedrooms/baths are upstairs). It looks like the unit next door is a mirror image of this one and we are already talking about renting both sides next summer so more of our family can join us! Also, the rental agency was very friendly and helpful with several questions we had during our stay.

2 stars ONLY for location

When I booked this property I noticed a review from2014 that the company had replied to as not viable. However i thought that in 3 yrs time the problems woud have been corrected! We had a very bad check in, in that the house had not been cleaned properly, the deck furniture were in a bad state, the door upstairs would not open, downstairs bedroom was very disappointing in size and has NO closet. There were beer cans and cups around back deck. All was reported and in no time cleaning crew came and cleaned the inside. The next day the doors were repaired and deck chairs replaced!! I did not report these things because my children did not tell me until we left because I was so upset with how much neededto be done to the place: There is not nearly enough water pressure upstairs sometimes barely enough to get a shower and the AC cannot handle the upstairs. It was HOT!! The location of this house is excellent but the hou needs ATTENTION!!! We did not leave the tent and the other debris around the deck, it was there when we arrived!! We were not overloaded in the house, we had 9.

Beach Front Luxury

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A lovely renovation for a favorite beach house at a premium price for beach front property. A few suggestions could elevate this rental. Instructions regarding the TV situation would ease the learning curve for the tech challenged. The kitchen is lovely, but is lacking in barware/wine glasses for large groups. Also, there was only one large cooking pot that was not big enough for a shrimp boil. Many 3 qt pots, scratched and not in great condition. Our second day we discovered no heat/ac upstairs...due to broken heat pump. Wondered why this wasn't addressed before we arrived, as the batteries had been removed from the thermostat, so someone had to be aware of the issue. Rental company was very response to all of our issues, so that was a plus. We totally enjoyed the decorative fireplace as it was a cloudy, windy and cool week at the beach. The lovely large dining table and big sectional couch provided lots of lounging room for everyone. Best of all was the panoramic view of the prettiest beach around.
