The pool was cold the heat wasn’t on. We didn’t get in the hot tub because it had people in it most of theTime. I would definitely go back in April not in March It was cold 2 days we didn’t leave the room.

It was a great condo esp being one bedroom and one bath! Has two balconies and both have great views! The inside is nice as well! I’d go back to the same place again but we have another little one on the way so we’d need two bedrooms next time we go!

Reviewer Comments:
This was our first time staying in Sandestin and first time booking with My Vacation Haven. Overall we were very satisfied with the company. The condo was clean and stocked well. I feel that it needed a dresser to put clothing and would have benefited from information about the resort and shuttle service. We loved it though and will definitely use you again!
