Great Location

The house was nice and clean. The location was great. The only issue was that the refrigerator was broken and we weren’t made aware of it, even as of the date we checked in, so we lost a lot of food we had purchased. We were provided a dorm size refrigerator but for a family of 4 that didn’t work long.

Exactly As Advertised

Had a great stay here with friends for a short beach vacation. Property as advertised. Conveniently located near a gas station for emergency purchases. 5min walk to the beach. Comfy living room, working grill, and kitchen with all the pots and pans you need. Things that could be improved: there is no basic seasonings provided like salt and pepper, only one roll of toilet paper for every bathroom regardless of stay length, only 2 patio chairs on the rooftop for a property that holds many people, construction noise in the morning, and the outside shower was broken and in-operable. Overall an amazing stay with everything we needed without many hiccups. 5 stars, stay here and enjoy your time with friends and family:)

Property was good. Indoor area was great for our family. Outdoor area could use some attention since the outdoor furniture had mold and mildew on it and really wasn’t usable. Management company was very responsive to issue but there was not a quick solution for the problem. Great area for sure.

Great House Great Location

The house was very nice. Clean and plenty spacious for our family. All bedrooms on the same level (downstairs), which is great for families with small children. Common space upstairs, which is great for not disturbing sleeping guests. Outside porches were very nice with plenty of seating. Location, relative to public beach access, was wonderful. Could easily walk if you have a wagon or don't mind carry your gear. Renting a golf cart is also a great option. Would definitely stay here again.

Great house in a lovely neighborhood!

We have stayed in multiple properties in this neighborhood and this is one we will come back to for sure. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were great. We really loved the enclosed porch were our children could play safely. There was some construction going on behind the house, but the disruption was very limited and certainly the owners can’t control the property behind them.

Vacation stay

Excellent location, the house was very nice. it would be nice to have outside dinning and a fire pit. The porch swing is nice we enjoyed it very much all though the fabric needs to be cleaned. Beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was clean. The shower head in the master bedroom needs something because the pressure and direction isn't great. overall I would definitely stay at this property again.

Great Stay!!

We had a great time and loved the house! There was plenty of room and the layout worked great for our group. The location is perfect and it is a short walk to the beach. We also LOVED the outdoor shower, it was so easy to clean the kids off before going inside. The only suggestion would be for better fitted sheets for the bunk room. The sheets did not fit and it was a tangled mess every morning. Also, it would have been great to have chairs on the rooftop to enjoy the sunset. Other than that, it was a great stay! We highly recommend it to families with kids!

Great!

My husband and I and the couple we were with had a great stay here. The location is amazing- 5 min walk to a very quiet beach with gorgeous homes on it, and close to some of our favorite 30A restaurants (3 min drive to Shunk Gulley!). The house itself was nice-- there was some typical rental wear on it, but a great crash pad with nice outdoor space. The neighborhood pool was nice to have also-- we even met the sweet HOA manager who was very welcoming. We're a pretty easy to please bunch, but the *only* issue we had was that they only provided one roll of crappy toilet paper per bathroom, one roll of crappy paper towels, and two garbage bags. Definitely not enough for a 5 night stay. We had to buy extras from Publix.

Perfect beach house! With outside shower! It’s a little bit of a walk to the beach, so we decided to rent a golf cart which was a very easy process! Quick golf cart ride and the kids loves it. Check in and out was easy. No issues with the house at all. House was a good size for two families. Would definitely recommend.

Great house in a great location

We come down to Santa Rosa each summer and have stayed in this neighborhood several times -- it is a great location that is very convenient to a quiet part of the beach. This house was perfect for our family of four. It is very comfortably decorated and the kids loved the porch and widow's walk on the roof. The property manager was very communicative and helpful as well. We would definitely stay here again.

False advertising

Positives: clean, safe, AC worked, good location Negatives: garbage disposal and lights and vent in toilet closet didn't Work. The worst negative was that we paid for house to Accommodate 10 guests, however there was only space for 8, Which included the 2 sofas in the living room, which were supposed to convert to sleepers, but did not. The biggest disappointment was the removal of 1 set of bunk beds shown in Advertisement. This caused some of the guests to have to Double up, which was very uncomfortable and not what we paid For. I feel that I am owed some refund of the rental price, which I paid for sleeping arrangements for 10 guests and rental only comfortably accommodated 8 guests with 2 sleeping on living room couches.
