This house was great! Stayed with our married children. Room for everyone. Great location to beach and restaurants. We will definitely stay here again!
We had a great time! The house was very clean and looked just like the listing photos. Location was a short walk to the beach and close enough to drive to Destin. Maintenance was prompt and helpful with any issues we encountered. We’d definitely stay again! Thank you!
We had a great stay! The place was clean, grocery store, restaurants and beaches were close. We rented a golf cart for the beach- we liked the one a little East on 98 by Goatfeathers instead of the closest access. The pool was perfect for our little family. Make sure to get extra paper towels, toilet paper and beach chairs! 10/10 would stay again!
A great vacation. The house was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone, the pool was a great touch as well. The house was well appointed, and the location was central to all that you need. All in all, this is a must if you're considering this house. The rental agency was incredibly accommodating as well. all in all - fantastic week.
We loved the house and it really exceeded our expectations as far as the pictures online. It was super clean and any issues we had were handled promptly and the management was super easy to work with throughout our stay. We brought our two teenage sons and a bunch of their friends for Spring Break and it was a PERFECT house for them!! We would rebook in a heartbeat!
We had a blessed & awesome stay my Dad who just made 93 was with us & my sister & husband from Oregon came & my hus & my our best friends stayed with us. Came down here for my cousin’s Wedding & couldn’t of asked for more. The house was exceptionally beautiful & clean with great amenities & location was a plus! I just had trouble catching the Saints game! Will definitely come back again!
Great location. Well stocked kitchen. Large great room with big windows. Garage full of beach stuff. Responsive host.

We moved our visit to the Halibut. We were here in June and now back in August. It’s so easy from the time we arrive until we leave. Love it!
Great property with a great location. House was very nice and the kids enjoyed the pool with the fountains. Garage had lots of beach toys and a cooler. Would definitely stay here again!
Wonderful property, issue with upstairs air-conditioning got fixed right away. Really liked this location in Santa Rosa and property has pretty good proximity to the beach - about 10 minutes to walk it. The bikes were in good shape and a wonderful addition to the trip! There are lots of shops and restaurants close by as others have said. Overall, we had a great week and really enjoyed the property - will consider staying again.
The house was a great size and plenty of room and very clean. Pool is very small and not much room for more than 3-4 kids. The beach entry for the property was a public beach which can be very crowded at times.
The house was the perfect size for my family, my brother-in-law’s family and my mother, which totaled 10 people. The location was perfect for dining out, shopping and the beach. Definitely would consider staying at the same location again.
Enjoyed our stay here. The home is beautiful and larger than the pictures appear. The location is great and an easy walk or bike ride to restaurants, shopping, and the beach. We particularly enjoyed the bicycles which included a kid trailer.
