Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the home and its location. It’s great to know the fully stocked kitchen and our responsiveness made your stay even better. We’d love to host you again anytime
Property had an amazing location! Right on the beach! Inside was clean, but a little dated and worn. Hosts were friendly and responded immediately to little problems. Overall, we had a wonderful stay. Only negative was no beach equipment. Must bring your own beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. Difficult when flying.

Kellie,We're so happy you loved the beachfront location and that our team could jump in quickly whenever you needed anything. It means a lot that despite everything, you had a wonderful stay overall. We really appreciate your feedback.
Great house, amazing views. The home had all basic home amenities however only towels for the beach - chairs and umbrellas need to be brought (FYI). Loved the location and views. Pool table and jacuzzi were great additions.

Can’t beat the great location it’s wonderful for a family gathering however our walk through check in upon arrival left us with concerns over its need for attention and maintenance / management made a concerted effort to resolve issues We overcame them and had a wonderful vacation

Gary, we’re happy to hear you enjoyed the location and that it worked well for your family gathering. We appreciate your patience as we addressed the concerns during check-in, and we’re glad everything came together for a wonderful vacation.
This house was beautiful, clean and just as pictured! My family and I enjoyed our stay and wished it were longer! We'll definitely recommend and be back!
Beach house needs dome minor maintenance. Key pad no code, some doors don’t close easily, sink faucet drips, electric outlet with no cover, hair dryer has open wire,All minor things - a good detail check is needed

The unit was great. The management company created a problem at check out that they then expected me to correct. I got upset with them because they would not own up to their mistake and make it correct.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 April 2026
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the unit, but we need to address the situation you mentioned, as it has been misrepresented.
After your checkout, we sent you a photo of a pack and play left behind, asking if it belonged to you. You confirmed that it did. However, instead of properly verifying, you sent someone to pick it up. Once it was collected, you then claimed it was not yours—contradicting your earlier confirmation.
At that point, our team simply asked that the item be returned, since it had already been removed from the property based on your confirmation. Instead of cooperating, you spoke disrespectfully to our reservations staff and stated that you would discard the item, placing responsibility on us for a situation that resulted directly from your own actions.
We stand by our team’s handling of this matter. The issue did not originate from our side, and it is not acceptable to treat staff in that manner or refuse accountability after confirming ownership of an item.
For that reason, we would not host you again.
We had a wonderful time at this property! Very spacious and accommodates a big group. The view from the balcony was amazing and access to the private beach was a super quick and easy short walk. Quick walk to beach bars / restaurants too! The beds are VERY comfortable. Would highly recommend staying at this property.

We sincerely appreciate your excellent review! It brings us joy to learn that you had a fantastic experience and found the property to be both spacious and comfortable for your group. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the stunning balcony view, convenient beach access, and the nearby beach bars and restaurants. Thank you for your recommendation, and we look forward to hosting you again in the near future!
This house performed well in hosting our family of eight that included children starting at age 8 and grandparents up to age 71. The location was very good and the beach was gorgeous. The house had everything it said it would and nothing more. Do not expect to find leftover beach chairs, toys, or anything else useful that is not including in the listing. The house is a touch dated, but was still very nice. The mattress I slept on felt a bit cheap, but was firm and provided a decent week's sleep. I never expect a house of this sort to be perfect, so host communication is very important to me. Our host was responsive, seemed to actually care about the quality of our stay, and quickly took care of anything I mentioned. We would stay here again.

The Turtleback Beach house was perfect for our family of 7! The large family room, kitchen, dining area was very nice. Having 2 refrigerators was also a bonus for our family. The pool table was enjoyable as well as the hot tub. We enjoyed the view of the gulf & the beach area was very private it is a deep beach, so be prepared for a walk to the ocean. There are many local restaurants that are close by & have a variety of seafood to order from. 10/10 for this beach house!! We will definitely be back!

The house is very good ! Furniture is old but for a few days there’s no problem ! All mattresses are uncomfortable! Should be replaced! And Gulf of America is awesome !

Rented this property for family vacation—six adults and six children. Property was clean and very spacious. Only drawback was the traffic noise at night, especially for bedrooms on the backside of the house.
