Great Home Away from Home
The home was clean and decorated very beautifully. Everything we needed was there, including games, and the appliances were pretty new. Everyone was pleased with the golf cart. Our upstairs master bath needed more shower hooks but that is a very minor issue. Also the other upstairs bedroom did not get cool. It was stormy most days so we couldn't really use the nice outdoor area. We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back.

Pretty home. It is very spacious and rooms are good sizes. Love the kitchen. The up stairs bedroom with 3 beds was very warm couldnt find an air vent in there. Overall the stay was great and my family was very happy. The golf cart was so helpful, we didn't have to use our car that much. Thanks again.

Great Location
Other than some cleanliness issues, our stay was great. Grass clippings in one of the beds and sand on most floors that we swept out. Golf cart has a wheel bearing noise in the front. Other than these issues they can fix, I would recommend using it again.

Perfect for our getaway!
Very nice place…The place was very clean and the perfect size for my family. This house is exactly as listed. We would definitely stay here again and I recommend this property to anyone. I have one suggestion that the owner provide a laundry basket or change the sliding doors for the washer and dryer. It was hard to transfer the clothes from the washer to dryer.

Not bad….
Overall the property was pretty decent. There was plenty of space for people to spread out. The six person golf cart was nice to have. Now for a few picky observations:
The lighting in the kitchen is very minimal.
The upstairs smaller bedroom needs its own a/c unit or ducting run to it. It was too warm for anyone to sleep in.
There were only two kitchen trash bags.
And now the not so picky observations:
We fought with cockroaches throughout the stay. It did rain twice towards the end of our stay and I will say that was likely the cars towards the end of the stay however the first three days were nice and we dealt with them from day one. There was a can of roach spray under the sink so we sprayed the perimeter of all the rooms and every day we would continue to find new dead
The first night when everyone got ready to go to bed we discovered that the sheets of one of the beds was covered with dog hair. From what we could tell the sheets had been laundered but the dog hair Kong to it and did not come off. It was all over the entire sheet set. We talk to the property manager and then of course apologized and centers clean linen.

Clean, but had several issue.
Place was very clean but we had a few issue. We had few of the Palmetto Bug in kitchen and laundry, three mice out side back yard. Spare bed room up stairs with the twin bed gets to hot to sleep in even if it had a fan and ceiling fan. Spare bed down stairs that's toward the back of house its mattress is very hard, like sleeping on floor. Microwave keep throwing breaker, never could get water or ice from the refrigerator door. Other than that the unit was ok. Wasn't the best we stay at. I had never given bad reviews before but there was too many issue that effect us from having a great vacation.

Overall we had a wonderful time. This is a nicely located property especially for winter traveling.
This house needs some TLC, The HVAC needs an upgrade, there are no screens, the fireplace is not functioning the gardens are messy
We were snowbirding and staying two months and needed to purchase a few things to be comfortable

We loved everything, from the house lay out to the decor. The neighborhood was great, the location was good, and the cleanliness of the house outstanding. Four days prior to our trip there we stayed at a VRBO in Cudjoe Key, it was HORRIBLE. Amazing how opposite the two were.

Nice house
Our trip to Sandestin was nice and the house met our needs for the most part. Our 8 year old granddaughter came to visit us and her feet were black after going barefoot in the house. Obviously the floors had not been mopped in a while. The downstairs master bathroom shower floor was extremely slippery. This was a big concern for my 89 year old mother. The only other real problem was the golf cart. I think it has seen better days and should be replaced. It did not have any get up and go. The back seat was cracked and uncomfortable. The lights did not work so we couldn't take it out at night. We tried one night and my husband would have to pull to the side and wiggle the connector to make the lights come back on. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

This condo is very spacious. The master bed was so comfy. The condo has tons of room to spread out both inside and outside. # bathrooms and showers with what seemed to be never ending hot water. The smaller upstairs bedroom is a bit hot, but the kids didnt mind much. Good internet.

Value and location
We had a last minute decision to look for a place at SanDestin and although we did not need the space it was welcome. Previous reviews mentioned inadequate AC however we didn't experience that. It was raining part of the time so maybe that helped. Also read about golf cart being slow and yes the manager mentioned that and it was scheduled for service. It was manageable but some times annoying when you are holding up vehicles and other carts. The headlights and driving lights on the cart quit working after the first night so we had to take our car if we ventured out at night. All in all though it was a nice experience.

Nice home but too warm for us.
The house was charming and the golf cart was a definite plus. The house was very clean and the management staff was great. We loved their app. We enjoyed being close to the pool. The only drawback was the home lacks adequate air conditioning.
