By far one of the cleanest VRBO properties we've ever stayed at. The house was spotless! We had a great stay and would definitely come back given the opportunity. The only downside was that the pool heater was not able to keep up with the cooler temperatures during our stay, so the pool was far colder than the set-point temperature. However, that is not a fault of the property owner. It was a great stay for a small family!

Perfect Getaway
We scheduled a very last minute getaway with the kids as soon as school ended. We scheduled Friday evening and were checked in Saturday evening. Rosemary was fantastic as a host and answered all of our questions very quickly. The location is perfect for what we wanted. A quiet gated community with a short golf cart ride to the beach and a private pool that was very big. We could not be more happy with our stay.

Everything you could need or ask for!
This home is convenient to shopping, restaurants, and very important, the beach. This house has the nicest pool in the gated community that we seen. Definitely recommend renting the golf cart to drive to the beach and some local shops and restaurants on old 98! Very quiet neighborhood and would recommend for families. Loved that it was no smoking!!! Very clean and equipped with everything you’d need! Rosemary is the best at communicating, too! Very easy process for reservation and payment and even afterward follow-up. Highly recommend!

We loved walking out the back door to get in your own private pool every day. It was close to the beach. The neighborhood is very nice and clean. This place we stayed at is nice. I think it needs some upgrades. It is pet friendly. Rosemary the host was wonderful. Every time I contacted her she would respond. Thank you we had a wonderful time

Stay at Sandcastle
This was my first time using VRBO and first time renting a house instead of a condo. I had a good experience with both and the process was easy. Rosemary was great staying in communication with me and quick to respond to questions and needs. We had a great stay, felt at home. When we couldn’t go to the beach we enjoyed swimming in the private pool. We were close to the beach and having the privacy and complimentary umbrella and chairs was so nice to just sit back and relax. We will definitely do it again and recommend to anyone looking for a vacation home rental.

Great location and Per Friendly
We'd give this place an 4.5 as a whole. Our stay was great. We needed a place near the beach that would allow our 50 pound doodle stay with us. Only suggestions we have are some of the little things, knives and scissors were dull and difficult to use. Also, the grill might need an upgrade. The front burners flew flames which made for an interesting moment. Overall, we would definitely recommend it to a person with a fur friend .

Our Destin Getaway
I will start by saying Rosemary was an absolute pleasure to work with. She answered any and every question I had very quickly. The house was exactly as described and was very clean! The pool...WOW!! It was absolutely perfect! It did get a little warm but it was to be expected with the heat of the week we were there and I made sure to let Rosemary know for the next guests if it could be adjusted.
We did rent the golf cart but only used it to go to the beach. There is not anything nearby like souvenir shops, or gas stations, so I don't know if it was really worth it, but it did make the ride to the beach easier, though you still had to park it across the street, and then enter the beach access that way.
We struggled with the codes for the beach access and the gate to enter the neighborhood, but again, Rosemary resolved that very quickly. I have stayed in numerous houses in Destin and I have never had one give you such a wonderful startup supply as she did.
The master bed was so comfortable and all the linens you would ever need were provided.
Do not let other reviews discourage you from renting this home. It was truly wonderful! There are lots of reminder notes everywhere but if you take care of the property, that shouldn't bother you. The price was great and it accomodated our family well.
Thank you, Rosemary, for opening your home to us!

Our stay
This booking for us was last minute. We were very excited to find something this close to the beach which was great. Location is great and the neighborhood was safe.
The description of the property was pretty good. The kitchen is poorly stocked.
The rules that hung all Over the house left us feeling very uncomfortable in the space. There are fines for everything if you damage anything etc. this is understandable however, patio furniture is on its last leg so we totally felt like it could have broken at any time. The couches are is poor shape also.
Almost like you couldn’t touch anything.
The house was not very clean at all. The dishes were put away dirty. We re washed all the dishes we used. I didn’t realized how dirty the floors were until I wiped up water in the bathroom and kitchen area. Definitely disgusting. The pool area had popcorn kernels all over, gum and random kid toys.
The contact with the Rosemary was fine - I felt we were being watched. The trash needs to be taken out on Thursday which we set it out Wednesday night for Thursday pick up and brought can back up to house. We were contacted by Rosemary the she got a violation notice about the trash. Just over all weird.
It seemed that the next door neighbors experienced the same thing they had cameras covered up with rags.
Won’t go back.

Loved the pool and outside furniture! House was clean but needs updating. The hostess was very quick to rectify a couple situations- issue with front door lock and toaster. All were fixed very quickly. Parking was an issue; we had two vehicles and a golf cart that we rented extra. We could not park in garage, could not block sidewalk or park in street; therefore, we had to move a vehicle back and forth each time we wanted to use the golf cart. There were excessive “rules” that had costly penalties if violated- ex. had to move trash cans back to side of house after garbage pickup or would be fined. There were several add on costs if chosen- golf cart rental not included in price, heated pool cost extra plus tax and early checkin cost extra. Loved the neighborhood and beach access except the gate code provided did not work.
