Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mostly great and management was responsive. The only issue was construction on both sides of the house that we were not made aware of prior to booking. House was well maintained and in a good location.

Beautiful place, great location!

I hosted a group of 8 girls for a friend’s bachelorette party at this location. We had a wonderful stay! The house was very clean and exactly as the listing depicted. The check-in process wasn’t the easiest I’ve ever done, but the host was extremely responsive both with calls and messaging. The best part was the location!!! We were a 2-3 minute walk from the main downtown area! Overall, we had a great stay!

Great house

The house was great. Checked out on Sunday, I wish I had known that you cannot access beach on after checking out . I had chairs and umbrellas rented for the entire day and didn’t have a way to access beach. Rental company and chair company should let out of town guests know that ahead of time.

Very Nice Neighborhood and Clean House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rosemary Beach is Beautiful, and this house was in a very nice neighborhood and felt safe and able to walk everywhere. You can walk to restaurants and shopping and do not even need to use your car. This house does have a lot of steps so that was a little hard when you are older. The house was clean, and the bed was comfortable (we only used master bedroom). The Management Company is professional and always answered the phone if you ever need anything.

Fabulous beach bungalow in the heart of Rosemary Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been happier with this great little house. We felt like we were at home the moment we walked in the door, tasteful decor without being sterile, steps from the main square/shops/farmer's market, and we made good use of the back deck, bikes, and dedicated parking, which were all nice pluses. Property management was also communicative, responsive, and very helpful leading up to and through the duration of our stay. Highly recommended.

Great fall visit to Rosemary Beach!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Carlin Ward Cottage. Our little dogs also had a great time. The house was so comfortable and the downstairs spacious for our little pups to play. The house was so cozy on the cool nights. It is so conivenient to the shops and restaurants of Rosemary Beach- less than 5 minute walk. We hardly used our car. We even walked to Alys Beach for a nice longer walk several times. The management company even called to be sure everything was fine. We enjoyed and stay and will definitely look to stay at Carlin Ward Cottage again. Thank you.

Overall a great rental!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived and the home was clean and was decorated very nicely. All amenities that were promised were there. The beds were very comfy and the pillows as well. The location to the town center couldn’t be beat! The beach was a quick 6 minute walk down a boardwalk which was nice. The beach service that was a separate purchase was great as well. The main bedroom bathroom sinks were stopped up and slow draining but rental company offered to send someone right away to fix but it wasn’t bad enough to warrant that. I’m sure they resolved after our departure. We would rent this property again and you can’t beat the service and quick responses from 30A Luxery Rentals.
