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.

This home was AMAZING, very, very clean and nicely decorated! It exceeded our expectations on every end. Much larger than what it looks like in the pictures. Home was fully furnished with everything that you would need for a perfect vacation. Pool was also a bit bigger than expected and was enough for my family of two adults and two teens. In a perfect location - just a short walk from the beach (literally), many restaurants and Publix. Be sure to stop by and try South of Philly 30A - so GOOD! Can be to local shopping in Destin and Panama City in less than 30 minutes. If you are looking for a clean, spacious and well kept property for your next vacation, you must give Just For The Halibut a try. You will not be disappointed! Would without a doubt book them 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.

Family Beach Vacation

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.

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!

Absolutely Wonderful!

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!

Memorable Experience

Great house for a family with younger children. The small pool was a hit with our 4 and 2 year olds. The house is spacious and comfortable. The location was close to restaurants and shops and a 9 min walk to the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better location.

Perfect getaway

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.

Excellent Home Away From Home

Always enjoy staying in Santa Rosa as this is the neighborhood we have frequented a dozen or so times over the past few years. This house checks all of the boxes. Comfort, proximity to all of the attractions, and relaxing to mention a few. We did rent a golf cart to make the commute to the beach and restaurants/bars a little shorter, but is not a necessity given the proximity of the property to the beach and restaurants. We will definitely be back.

Loved this property!

We have stayed in the Santa Rosa Beach area several times and this is by far the best rental we've had. We enjoyed everything about this property. It was clean and well equipped. The location was great, walking distance from the beach and several restaurants. Had to reach of to the property manager twice (couldn't figure out the pool alarm on the back door and string light fell a bit during a storm). They were professional and responsive both times. We will definitely be back!

Great house, fantastic location - close to beach!

This was a great property for us and our dogs. The house was very clean and a 5 min walk to the beach. The plunge pool was great to dip in after a long day at the beach! My only complaint (which really isn't one) is that there weren't beach towels - and I may have missed this when we booked - so we had to buy. Otherwise, the house had everything we needed! Definitely recommend and we have very high standards. Thank you!

Great stay - could be improved though

Pros - location is close to beach, house is genuinely very nice and nicely decorated, bbq was good, AC worked well and pool was perfect for us. Rooms are all a good size and mattress comfortable. Garage had 4 nice bikes, lots of sand toys for kids, 3 coolers, good beach cart. Opportunities to improve for future guests - with a bit of investment it would go a long way. It's a 4bedroom house but only has 2 loungers in the back yard without any cushions, +only 2 plastic Adirondack chairs, no umbrella in backyard . We have a baby who naps so we were looking forward to hanging by the pool but it was a bit lacking. An outdoor speaker would have been nice too. There are also curiously only 3 beach chairs, and they are very economical looking. I would love if the owners/managers would upgrade these. The pillows on the beds are very flimsy, if you have the opportunity to bring your own I would have. Overall we had a great time staying at this house and would do it again. A bit of investment would have saved us some money on renting items while we were there and had a better backyard setup - but again the basics (location, quality of home) made it a positive experience.
