It was cold while we were there so the heated pool access was great!

We loved the community and proximity to the beach. This was our second time staying here, and highly recommend. Could use some updates in the bathrooms but overall very nice property for a small family to stay close to the beach!
The home was in a perfect location in my opinion. Within walking distance but far enough that your not hearing all the neighbors around you. Walking distance to outlets, right next to Chick fil for the kids! Clean and comfy home with everything you need.

Private neighborhood right on the beach, perfect for our friends trip, there were floaties, umbrellas, and beach chairs in the storage area which was super helpful. We had a wonderful time.

We had a great time. I loved that someone was always there to assist us. I also loved the neighborhood and the short walk to the beach. The house was very comfortable and very nice kitchen to prepare our meals. We would stay here again.

Enjoyed a Spring Break get away with my 4 teenagers. Great condo and location that worked perfectly for us. Only 2 small issues: propane tank for the grill was empty and water pressure is a bit low when starting the washing machine These did not take away from our enjoying our trip and we will definitely purely stay here again if we return to the Destin area.

Beach Vacation
There were some broken furniture outside and some cleanliness issues with the couch. Nothing that stopped us from enjoying our time in this lovely neighborhood we will return to soon. We love the location and the amenities. We would book again.

The home was located in a great spot. Short walk to the beach with plenty of room for large families. Loved the neighborhood and the pool. The only negative thing was the appliances not working properly. The agitator in the washer didn’t spin, dishwasher was molded pretty bad and the fridge kept freezing up. Family had a great stay and would love to come to this area again.
This house is so much better than what the photos show! Nine of us stayed and were very comfortable the entire time. The kitchen is huge and the living space was very spacious for all of us! The porch was a great space to hang out together as well. The short walk to the beach was truly a short walk! And the private beach was so nice!!

We really loved this place! It's a very short walk to the beach and we appreciated the easy access. We knew it would be plenty big for our family of 5 (2 adults, 1 teenager, 2 kids), but it was even larger than expected which was great. I loved how clean it was when we arrived and the neighborhood has a bunch of places within walking distance. It has a ton of pots/pans/utensils to make meals, just be sure to bring salt/pepper/oil if you plan on cooking. The property management were very responsive and friendly, too. We also really appreciated the signage and instructions around the house, as well as the check-in process , very well done! Overall we had an amazing time and would highly recommend this house!
This property was awesome! We did have a few issues and reported them. They were fixed but the only thing that I didn’t like is that they didn’t communicate if anything was being done. Other than that, it was a beautiful home. We had a great time, probably one of the best rentals I’ve ever gotten in Miramar Beach. I highly recommend.

Need beach supplies/chairs/towels. Spotted one or two giant roaches: one in kitchen and one on the landing.
Bad sheets on some of the beds: hot, slippery poly. For that price they should be cool, 100% cotton bedding.
Otherwise everything was fine.

Hello Julie! Thank you for your review and feedback. We hope that you come back next year for another memorable vacation! Kindest Regards, Your Southern Team
We enjoyed our stayed and really appreciated the flexibility to extend our stay. The rooms were spacious and the walk to the beach wasn’t bad even though it was raining during our stay. They did have a fully stocked kitchen. The bathrooms upstairs were a bit dirty when we got there. It was a last minute booking so that might explained it. Communication was easy and anytime I needed something they were quick to respond. Overall, we were satisfied and happy with our stay. I would recommend the beach house and staying with Southern Rentals.

Great location. Convenient to stores and restaurants. Football field away from beach.
If we had 11 guests as we projected it would have been cramped. Repair issue handled timely and professionally. A/C needs to adjust at night for comfortable sleeping in the upstairs bedrooms.
Overall and 8.5 out of ten.
And the additional water toys were convenient as well.
