The house was very nice and clean. The backyard was nice and relaxing. There was 4 bicycles beside the house but weren't in a rideable condition. The beds are very firm and felt like sleeping on the floor. Overall the house was very good and we liked the area it is in.

Everything was top notch with the house. Yard needed maintenance and advertised parking beside the house but not an option. Everything you need is included in the house and back yard. Enjoyed sitting on the front porch and rocking and talking to the neighbor. 3 story house next door had at least 12 people who made a lot of noise into the morning with loud music and partying.

We had a fantastic time at our Miramar Beach home away from home. The house was beautiful, it had everything we needed to be comfortable and the management company was wonderful to respond quickly to our questions, check on us and accommodate us in the best way possible. The house was in a beautiful area, walking distance to cafes, the beach and the stores. We have 4 kids and it was perfect for all of us. We would absolutely consider this property again when we plan our next trip.

I would rent this again. Beautiful home.

This property is in a really good, quiet area. There were zero problems with noise at night.(there was even a rooftop party across the street that we hardly even noticed. They were very respectful of the noise level.)It is a very handy location to walk to the beach, or to Alvin’s Island to shop. Don’t miss the ice cream shop right next to Alvin’s! There’s a coffee shop, DQ close by as well. In reference to an earlier review that said they needed to update the technology, here is what I gathered...the TVs are old enough that you cannot stream shows wirelessly. They need hard wired internet. (They only have WiFi)That being said, bring a Roku or WiFi compatible laptop or expect to not watch anything if you’re staying in. (unless it’s dvds) The cable channels provided are very basic and won’t help you in your quest to watch a preferred show. You will need everything, down to the spices and condiments to cook if you choose to do so. You will need to buy shampoo if you take more than a couple showers. They are sample size. If you have frizzy hair, just bring your own. My hair really suffered with the provided conditioner. Also bring laundry detergent. The beach access we used had chairs and umbrellas set up on the nice days. There were a couple problems , but the property managers really did a great job to resolve the issues. They also followed up with a phone call on my personal message with them.(which I did appreciate) Rent the place if you get a chance! You won’t regret it.

Gabe, we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with some feedback regarding your rental experience while staying in Southern Comfort, a three-bed, two-bath home in Frangista Beach, a really good, quiet area that is located only 500 yards to gated beach access. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by there not being more supplies provided. As mentioned in the rental agreement, housekeeping leaves a limited amount (starters) of such items as toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels, and dish detergent. Due to food safety reasons, condiments, spices, coffee, coffee filters, etc. are not provided. Guests must provide any additional products needed for/during their stay. We are happy to know that any issues that arose during your stay were promptly resolved, you enjoyed the beach access, and you would stay here again. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.

BEWARE of RealJoy Vacation Rentals

House, check in , etc. was great! However, the power of VRBO - that we have been using for almost 20 years for multiple trips per year - is in the renters feedback. 4 days into our trip at 7PM we were given 45 to leave the property or the police were being called. No discussion, no complaints we were aware of, nothing. One phone call from Jonathan that was after-hours with no one from RealJoy willing to review the rental agreement with us and discuss any issue. Tony showed up 10 minutes later, checked IDs and again no discussion was allowed. It was a scary and frantic situation that I have never been put in, EVER! Our group vacated, spent the next 4 hours finding a new place for 8 people to relocate…only to discover the next day that the family coming in next had called and requested to come early. I guess it was worth it to evict us, attempt to keep our money and rent the property again. The story from RealJoy Vacation Rentals changed several times over the next 2 days and we are ultimately leaving it up to Visa with a chargeback to hopefully help us! Simply put - it was a nightmare - BEWARE!

Hi! We are happy to know that the party of young men staying here thought this three-bedroom, two-bathroom house in Frangista Beach was great and check-in was easy. They were asked to vacate the property due to several portions of the rental agreement being broken, not because another guest was arriving. More than an hour after a call had been made to vacate this rental, Jonathan arrived and explained the rental contract to the eight young men and gave them 30 minutes to leave, which would be extended. We would be more than happy to provide a more concise record of events if needed. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
