"Location, Location, Location - Being right next to the pool and short distance from the beach is exactly what we were looking for. The house offers pool and beach toys. If you have a wagon I would recommend taking so you would not have to carry all your stuff to the beach. The house had everything needed to enjoy our stay. We had only one issue, the cable went out upstairs the second night so none of the TVs worked. We called and they had someone come right out. Unfortunately he was not able to fix the problem. We received a phone call stating that a technician would be out the following day but they never showed up. Partly our fault for not calling again and complaining but feel the management service should have kept in touch to make sure the issue was taken care of. On a second note we have visited the Santa Rosa Beach area for many years, in this price range, and all the previous homes offered additional amenities such as; folder with things to do in the area (for new guests not familiar with the area), a sign in book where we could right down where we could recommend places that we patronized and read where other guests went and a breakdown of what you are expected to do while staying such as when the garbage is picked up. I gave this property five stars because it is great property for families with children and a place to sit back and relax which is what a vacation is all about."

Hi Terry, thank you for your feedback of this beautiful home. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed this amazing location and the lovely community pool next door. We're so sorry for the cable issue during your stay. We have updated our troubleshooting process for the TVs so this will not happen again. The owner and RealJoy take pride in this home and are adding a beach wagon, a concierge folder and a guest book for future guests to use. Thanks again for your feedback and we hope to see you again!

"We had a great time on our vacation! This is a very nice property and we loved the front covered porch! The location in the neighborhood (the house is right next to the pool) was great for our son. The distance from the beach is doable but a bit of a walk (about .03 of a mile). We had a beach cart and backback chairs, so it wasn’t terrible, but make sure you take things like that or the walk will be hard. There is parking at the beach access as well, but its limited and gets full quickly. We loved being able to walk to a couple of restaurants (Goatfeathers and Local Catch), as well as an ice cream shop. Overall, great experience and would recommend!"
