Great Place
This is our 3rd time to the complex and second time in this unit. I loved the updates they did to the extra counter space/drink refrigerator since our last visit, you can tell the owner really cares about the guest experience. Great beach and comfy beds. If you do go and plan to eat in a lot - bring extra paper towels and trash bags - not a big deal but a friendly tip.

Spring Break
The home was perfect for our needs. It was a great value. The community felt very safe and protected. We were a little disappointed, because I thought we would have more of a beach view.

Great place
Clean, great furnishings, kitchen had everything we needed and great beach stuff for all ages. Easy walk to beach and chairs and umbrella provided was a nice touch. We’ve been renting places at the beach from Mexico Beach to Destin for 30+ years and this place ranked near the top in all areas.
