Perfect Spring Break Home.

This home was great for our spring break group of 12. We had 6 adults and 6 kids ranging from 3 to 17. We all enjoyed this spacious home and never felt like we were on top of each other. The private beach access right across the road was perfect. This beach area never felt overcrowded even during busy spring break. The house had a fully stocked kitchen with dishes, pans and cooking utensils. The beds were all comfortable. We had no issues whatsoever. Would definitely book this home again.

Beautiful, Spacious House Close to Beach

The house was well-kept and in a great location. It was spacious enough for our family of 16 to feel comfortable. The pool was big enough to be enjoyed by all. The rocking chairs on the front porch were a huge hit. Would definitely stay here again!

Family Vacay

We recently lost a close family member. We usually travel every summer together & this was our first vacay without her. She would’ve loved it! The worker, Corey, that came out to adjust the air & pool was prompt & kind. Thanks for an awesomely clean house & conveniently close by the ocean! They even gave us a beach gift so we left floats & buckets for the next family! Will rent again next summer if available!

Clean and spacious Vrbo

We had a group of 14 at Summer Sun for three nights. It never felt crowded. The property itself was spacious and very clean. The Roku offered a lot of entertainment too. The only concern we had was early on our first morning, we noticed that there was a leak from the master bathroom in the first floor. The property manager seemed to suggest that we were misusing the tub but no one had used the bath tub-- we had noticed the leak very early in our stay. That said, I appreciate the attentiveness of the 360 Blue associate that worked on this issue. They were really communicative and helpful in addressing and remediating the problem. I find solace in this company because they had technicians and staff in the neighborhood to assist too.

Amazing stay

We rent a house in Destin every year and this was the cleanest one yet. The spotlight by the pool did not work and I called the property manager, within 10 minutes the maintenance man was there and put a new light up and had it working within an hour. Thank you so much for the amazing stay.

Beautiful Summer Sun

Let me start off by saying my family really enjoyed this property. This property has a great location very close to the beach. The pool was awesome however the backyard was so dark for night swimming. Backyard needs better lighting. The grill was not able to be used could not ignite the gas. When we first checked in at 4 pm I was told the master bathroom toilet was out of order. Upon entering the master bathroom I found the toilet in the shower. So not only could I not use the toilet I could not use the shower either. However once I spoke to 360 and they communicated to the property managers that problem was resolved before we even settled in. They took care of the issue immediately. I would definitely recommend this property my family of 14 were very comfortable with the space and bathrooms it never felt crowded. Thanks for an awesome stay

Great location and private beach entrance, plenty of room for 2 large families.

Location location location- there’s a private gated beach entrance almost directly across the street, and it made going back and forth to the beach very easy. The pool is on the smaller size but worked well for our boys 8-12yrs old. The layout of the first floor was awesome with plenty of seating both for eating in the kitchen and watching tv in the living room. Having a master and bunk room on the first floor was a huge plus. We had four adults and 8 kids ranging from 8-18yrs old, and the house never felt crowded. I highly recommend this home, especially if beach accessibility is important.

Short Weekend Stay

This is a beautiful property. There were 19 of us staying & it never felt over crowded. The property manager answered all my questions before the trip and responded quickly when I was there too. The location is nice. It’s a very quiet neighborhood. It does face the main road but the tree line gives you privacy.

Sleepless in paradise

There were a lot of positives and negatives for "Summersun" Positives - Lovely Decor Great Layout Well stocked kitchen Fantastic AC Wonderful hot water heater Negatives - Mattress in Master was horrible sag in the middle Mattresses in double queen also had big "ruts" in the middle Bed in King on Main - mattress was good but the bed is so noisy that it woke me and my spouse every time one of us rolled over Cleaners do not clean fan blades that were an inch deep in dust This is a great listing overall, but for the price, I would expect mattresses to be in better shape. No one enjoys vacation if you cannot sleep well. I would give Summersun a B-.
