We have been coming to Navarre for 10 plus years and this was our second time staying at this property. You cannot beat the location. The beach access is super close and not crowded at all as compared to the beach area around condos. The house is comfortable but could use some love. Pretty simple updates could really help this little house out. I noticed not many changes had been made from last year to this year except for a few added decor pieces and the carpet had been changed out for what I believe was linoleum throughout the house. Last year the master bathroom shower door was broken and it was still broken this year. The kitchen was missing a cutting board and doesn't have a Keurig. We remembered this from last time so we brought our own, but simple things like that are overlooked at this house. We also noticed that the air conditioner didn't keep the master bedroom and bathroom as cool as the rest of the house. We had some trouble with Southern Vacation Rentals who manages this property our very first day. The battery on the keypad to get into the house died and we were locked out! It was late at night, our kids were cranky and hungry, and instead of being helped right away, the customer service rep gave us the run around for about an hour. To our dismay, there was no one on the island with a key so a locksmith had to be called! That took another hour. The next day, we were visited by a Southern Vacation rep and a manager called later in the week and we were compensated, but it really could have been avoided if more attention was paid to the updates of this rental like an updated keypad. All in all, this is a fantastic location in a wonderful neighborhood, but a little paint, updates to the kitchen and bathrooms, etc. could really turn this rental into something really nice.
