Great location

- Posted: 7/14/2024

Easy to walk everywhere, also near trolley stops. It is a quick and easy walk to an uncrowded section of the beach. Pool is smaller than it looks in the photos, but a great place to relax. We used the pool more than the beach. It was great that half was under cover and half was open, so we could be in our out of the sun depending on our mood. The house has a great layout for any group. Lots of windows, very bright. Rooms were large and bathrooms as well. Every room has their own bath and then a half bath in the living area. Very nicely decorated, you can tell they put a lot of thought into it. Cons: Check in at 5pm and check out at 10am is tough, you’ve lost almost a full day that you’re paid for. I know this is a large house, but I paid $515 for a cleaning fee, that should allow enough people to be hired to clean the house for a shorter window of 11am/4pm. Also, for the cost, they definitely skimped on supplying basic necessities. One small roll of toilet paper per bath, one roll of paper towels, 2 dishwasher tabs, no laundry detergent, no beach chairs or beach towels. We know this is a short term rental and they don’t supply everything, but I’ve stayed in cheaper places that supplied more. Especially beach chairs and beach towels for a house a block from the beach. These cons wouldn’t stop me from renting this place again, as it was amazing and it totally deserves the 5 stars that I’m giving it. It would just be an inexpensive way to provide goodwill to guests.

It was a beautiful home close to the beach. Quick response time when we had any questions.

It was wonderful!

We rented the beach house for our daughter’s graduation. The house was great! It has a pool on the 3rd floor that everyone thought was fun. One block from the beach! You can pretty much walk to restaurants and shopping nearby. Great location. Freddie the Transporter is next door too if you meed a ride somewhere!

We had an amazing trip with our adult children. The layout of the house was perfect for our family. Great location — close to beach and walking distance to many attractions.

Love it, but too many bugs

- Posted: 8/21/2023

Thank you for the 5 star review and we are glad you loved the house! We do get a lot of bugs/creatures down here on the beach in the panhandle, however we have exterminator contracts for all of our properties. We will double check this one and make sure it is being properly serviced to keep the bugs down, they won't get them all but the do a pretty good job normally. Thanks, Gulf Coast Getaways

This house was perfect for our entire group-ages 9-70, and the elevator was fortuitous as one of the group was suddenly on crutches. Access to the beach, funky restaurants, spa services, and heated pool were all amenities greatly enjoyed. Wonderful place!

Property was close to flawless! Stones throw from the beach, amazing views from every floor. Clean. Well designed and furniture was high end modern coastal. Pool is the perfect complement to the beach, even has some shade when you’ve had enough sun. Would’ve been nice to know about what beach accessories were available ahead of time to plan better. When we stayed there was plenty of chairs but no umbrellas. Wifi was hit or miss but not a focal point for us. Overall great house that pretty much has it all and was thoughtful about the end user across every detail of the property. Definitely would return!

Hassle free

So healing and wonderful! Just a short walk to the beach this house towers over all others with an exquisite view from every window. Definitely would recommend and return sometime. I do believe the elevator causes some electrical issues but they were super quit to get someone out to fix.

Everything was perfect! Location was great! Walking distance to so much! House was even prettier in person! Elevator is extremely small but husband has a smaller manual wheelchair so he was able to use it. Master shower was large enough for his shower chair. Loved the pool! Was only able to use it two days then it seemed like it wasn't warm. Granted it was January and colder so we totally understand. Communication was great!! She was very quick to respond! Would definitely Love to come back in the summertime!!

Beautiful property. Perfect for our family of 8. Loved the small elevator. Kitchen was great! Accidentally left my cutting board so now the house has one. WiFi signal is weak in bedrooms, fine in family room where the router is.

Great facilities, and perfect location. No need to look elsewhere.

This house was great for our needs. Plenty of room for everyone. Only draw back was AC was set at 72 and not able to change. It could get warm when everyone was together and at night.

Great house & location - teens could walk to nearby restaurants, ice-cream parlor & putt-putt. Grownups could walk to nearby places to have drinks overlooking the water. Gorgeous and not too crowded beach. And CLEAN (very important to me). Well stocked (one thing - just get a big cutting board). Plenty of room. We had a great time.

We all enjoyed this home. It was clean and fresh. The beds were all comfortable. The finishes were beautiful. The pool was perfect for the kids to swim right outside the window. It was a quick easy walk to the beach which was not crowded at the end of June.

First let me say we truly enjoyed this property. We normally stay in condos on beach and with this house being just a block off beach I was concerned with public access to beach chairs and Umbrellas availability. Access was not issue and you can find someone privately to set up chairs for you and its about the same walk as a condo. Beach access point was not crowed like the condo area, actual less congested. House was great, but do remember they state that the house is made for 14, I'd say not 14 adults. One other thing to consider is the stairs. A lot of stairs for you who have issues climbing them. yes elevator is on property but we used it more for send items up and down the 3 floors. Little small, but it is a house elevator. Another review mentioned the elevator also. Overall we would stay here!! Thanks Shawn and Teresa Houston Texas

This place was great for a large group. It’s a half block walk to beach. The house was very nice and new. The pool table and pool was great to entertain everyone at night and the grill was great for making meals. My only complaint was that the elevator was too small for fitting my sons wheelchair so it really was not handicap accessible for people in wheelchairs unless they are really small. Luckily we had a spare wheelchair that we could carry upstairs and I could just take him up and down the elevator.

Very nice property, with a great location.

My family had the best time and a great vacation. This house was super clean and was well cared for. We had all the amenities as outlined in the description. Beds were comfortable. The swimming pool was perfect for my kids and they enjoyed that it was heated. Great communication with the management company. Truly exceptional vacation rental.

We had an awesome time! House was perfect. We had one hiccup with the pool heater and within 15 minutes they were there to fix it! Awesome communication between us and the property managers. Debi was absolutely amazing! Definitely felt taken care of while we were there.

We visit Pensacola Beach regularly and found this property to be a great location and house. Walking distance to shops and restaurants was a big bonus. Would rent again.

- Posted: 1/1/2022

When we arrived we found out that the Blue Angels would be practicing and performing right out our windows. In addition to the house being even better than the pictures and having a golf cart that seats 6 available and a wonderful facility that was clean and stylish and well designed for vacationing. I would stay there again without slightest hesitation.

The property was gorgeous and well kept. Check in and out was a breeze, contact with management was also super easy and response timely. The only suggestions (not complaints) we can make to improve is a better WiFi router for service is consistent throughout house and can handle lots of devices. Would rent again!

Absolutely amazing beach house! Perfect location, just steps from the beach! We cannot wait to return and stay here again!!

- Posted: 10/23/2021

We were lucky enough to be the very first guests to stay in this beautiful home! It was clean, every inch was decorated beautifully, and the appliances are all high-end products. The location could not be better!! If we needed help, or an answer to a question, the management company was always available! We would definitely rent this home again!!

Thank you for the excellent review! Your group was the best group, so understanding and helpful with this brand new house as we worked through some of the new house issues during your stay. Please consider us again in the future as we would love to have you back! The house is beautiful and the location is perfect to experience all Pensacola Beach has to offer. Thanks again, Gulf Coast Getaways
