Beach House I

Go elsewhere. For over $4,300 for six days I expected much better. The view was great, but...... 1. The living room furniture was disgusting. See photos 2. They don't want you sleeping under the comforter and provide a blanket. It was nasty. See photos. 3. The back sliding door may as well have been Ft. Knox because it doesn't open or close without super strength. 4. The laundry closet had a nice hole in the wall with exposed wiring. See photos 5. For 4 adults they provide 2 beach chairs on their section of the beach. For more than 2 chairs you will pay an extra $45 a day and if you don't reserve them, you won't have chairs. 6. The security officer reprimanded us for having two separate vehicles because, according to her, only one vehicle per rental is allowed. Which is pretty hard when you're coming to meet your child from a different location. 7. There was a hole in the tile beside the bed in the master bedroom. Great to step on barefooted first thing in the morning. 8. The laundry closet door is broken and off track and you have to fight it to close it so the toddlers don't get to the exposed wires. 9. There are two holes/cracks in the master bath ceiling just above a detachable shower wand that falls off and smacks you in the face while using it. We just expected so much more for the price we paid. And we'll go back to our usual spot in San Destin next year. If you're making nearly $5k a week, can't you at least make it look clean?

Pros: View, short walk to beach, and beach chairs and umbrella provided Cons: Run down and dirty. Our white socks were filthy within 5 minutes of being there. Dust on ceiling fans and vents. Unit is in need of deep cleaning. Master bedroom shows some water damage. Some windows are hard to see through. Beds are not great and fold-out couch is flat and basically springs. Balcony door is hard to open and close. Pool was not heated while we were there. Sign on pool gate said Pool heater was broke and someone would be there to look at it. Same sign was there all week and heater was not fixed. Could not cool down unit below 74° (and it was not very hot in March during our stay) You will be charged if every towel is not washed. This is difficult with such a small compact washer and dryer. Smallest washer and dryer I have ever seen. Elevator glass was broken and window in elevator was covered in duct tape. Also note that there is not a hot tub. There is a kiddie pool by the pool. We were mistaken by the pictures. If you can deal with the run down condo, the beach and view are great.

Great location for our week at the beach. Very family oriented for those vacationing with families and great for just a couple as well. We would say the facilities are comparable to other vacation locations we have stayed in at popular beach destinations in the US. Our condo could use some updating to our standards but still very good for rentals. Only thing that was different was a 9:00 AM check out and required to wash all the towels. Makes you have to get up earlier to shower and allow time for washing the towels. Overall we would come back easily.

The view is great and the beach’s are awesome ! The rooms are fine a little out dated. The pool this time of the year is just for show only. Been here a couple weeks and it doesn’t get used much. Water is too cold. The ocean was warm. Too bad such a waste. Have to look for a new place.

Unit C303 is disgusting!! Definitely had not been cleaned before we arrived. Kitchen sink had dried nasty food all over it. The floor was gritty with sand. The carpeting and floors were so disgusting we wouldnt walk without shoes. The air intake filter hadnt been cleaned in years. Picture included below. Beds were uncomfortable. Showers were full of mold. We loaded the washer with beach towels & let it fill with water before realizing the washer didnt work. What a wet mess. The entire place needs a major update. The welcome packet stated to let the owners know of any problems within 24 hrs of arrival. We texted & emailed the owners & never got a response to either. DO NOT STAY HERE!!
