After always staying in high-rise condos during previous trips, this was our first beach house experience. It’ll be tough to ever do a high-rise again. The convenience of being right on the beach is unmatched. We’d 100% stay here again. We loved every second of it.

Nice house

Nice comfortable place to stay. Beds/pillows/comforters/towels all perfect!! House was clean and comfortable for our group of 10 to play cards and watch TV. We rented bikes and used them almost daily to ride to Rosemary/Alys beach. Plenty of shopping near by.

Great house and location

The house, beach, and location were great. Property management company was great to work with. I will say the house needs a desperate coat of paint inside and out and the floors need a deep deep cleaning. Other than the paint and cleanliness of the floors it was great. Fantastic fully stocked kitchen with everything you could need. The location was excellent.

Wonderful family trip

Beautiful views and the pool/spa is clutch when its cold and rainy. The major things you want when staying at the beach are all there! Other than some broken beach umbrellas and a bit of minor deferred maintenance, our stay was everything we could have hoped! Would highly recommend.

Paradise

This house was even better than the photos! Great location, directly on a private beach. Shortest possible walk to the beach of any house in the area. The ocean side of the house had huge windows, so we had incredible views of the blue green water and white beach and gorgeous sunsets. I would definitely like to rent it again if I have the opportunity.

Amazing views

We really enjoyed are stay at this wonderful beach home. You can walk out the back right into the ocean. The views are amazing. We were close to all the great shopping and restaurants. A little advice, close the living room drapes in the afternoon to keep the room cool in the summer. We opened them back up for the incredible sunsets. Really enjoyed the pool.

The location and experience were nice but the house was in poor condition relative to the price charged. The ice maker in the fridge did not work. The downstairs masterbath plumbing didn't work at all. There was only one working beach chair. We had paid for the pool to be heated and it was not heated. This was refunded.

You could not get a better location!! It was so great. Jessica with management was sooooo awesome. The only thing I would say was not so great about the house was it really needed some updates. I feel like the pictures were not recent. Although the house needed some updates you just could not beat the location!

Great views !

This house is a great house if you have children or family that needs to go in and out of the house throughout your beach day. The beach equipment is really a bonus. They umbrellas, beach chairs , floats and sand toys ! We were T a double red flag for three days out of six. So the pool was perfect. It’s still gave you the feels of being on the beach while watching the kids at the pool. I would highly recommend it !

The property was amazing

Kelly was amazing to deal with and we had an amazing stay at this rental. Rosemary beach was a short walk down the beach and local places to eat in the area are amazing. About a 15 min drive to Dusty’s in panama or a 15 min drive to red bar. Get the blackened grouper on the grit cake. Key lime pie. We also walked down and ate in rosemary. Which has amazing restaurants and shops. This is an amazing location. The views are indescribable. Walk right out to the beach. Dip pool/jacuzzi was wild during sunsets. We will be back for years to come. Thanks again Kelly!!!!

Great location, needs updating

Overall rating of four stars due to location - the house is right on the beach. It has great windows, providing a great view. The drawback is that the house is aging and that doesn't show up in pictures. Almost all of the pots and pans were not cleaned, and the coffee pot was so dirty I was too afraid to use it. All of the televisions - except the living room - were not working or not working properly. A window was cracked, molding missing from windows (leading to the window guy saying he was surprised the window didn't fall in on us), etc. During the first couple of days, we took inventory and communicated with the management company. They were responsive but for the premium price, none of those things should have been an issue.We won't likely consider renting the place again, but the location was great.

Perfect Beach Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves during our stay! The property is beautiful with full, tall windows everywhere, so you’re always able to take in the view. We appreciated all the amenities the home had to offer: a storage closet (with plenty of nice beach chairs, umbrellas, shade tent), fire pit supplies, and bikes. Inside the house: the kitchen was nicely equipped with anything you needed (seriously, anything, there were four different coffee makers for however you like to make it), the grill by the pool seemed new and was very enjoyable grilling while looking out over the ocean, and we heated the pool on the colder days of our trip and it was really warm! Past visitors mention private/public beach, we did not experience any issues with this. We set our chairs out in the morning by 8am, but even then, there would not have been much of an issue. The beach was beautiful!! We rode the bikes to Rosemary Beach/seaside/Alys downtown, easy fun ride! My only complaint would be some cleanliness, it seemed like we kept finding hair that was definitely not ours (we have blonde hair and the other hair was black). Overall, great experience, check in was easy, responses from the manager were quick, check out easy, I would definitely recommend staying here!!!

Amazing Location - Clean Home

Stayed with 4 adults and 6 teens in early March. House was spotless upon entry. Towels and bedding super plush. House came with 8 beach chairs and 8 beach towels, kayak, boogie and surf board. Views are fantastic. If you're coffee lovers there was a Keurig, drip and nespresso machine with 30+ pods and a nice gift waiting for us. High end stemware for wine lovers too. Only downfall was bottom freezer ice maker was very small so we were constantly heading out for more - even with coolers. Adding another full fridge or freezer in the garage area would be a great addition. There was also no food pantry but plenty of empty cabinets that worked just fine. All bedrooms except for the KING are on the lower level. Note: The beach directly in front of the house is considered private, however you are directly adjacent to the public beach so you have to get your chairs out early. There is a 'private beach' sign that comes with the house but it's small, faded and basically ignored. Didn't hinder our stay at all - Inlet is not a super crowded beach like Rosemary or Seaside. We would rent again.

Great location, home needs work

We had a great trip with our family. The sunsets are stunning, the beach was beautiful, and it was so convenient being on the beach with three kids! Not having to lug wagons and tons of stuff down to the beach each day since you just go down the steps and you're right there was awesome. I don't want to be too harsh but the home needs some work, especially at the price point. Pool was only 2/3 filled upon arrival, dirty, even had a spoon in it. Wouldnt have cared but you can't get help after 5 on Friday so we had 2.5 days of no pool even though we paid $150 for it to be heated during that time. You are not able to turn on the water feature in pool that they advertise, very disappointing for us and we even asked but we're told the owner doesn't allow it! It's on a 1hr timer (per day!) at whatever random time they so choose. Kids were so sad. The grill was broken which was also disappointing after purchasing steaks to grill and getting all set up to find not working. Pool tiles missing and broken, deck tiles broken on back lower level deck. House needs paint and general maintainence all over. Looks pretty worn in certain spots. Sofa in living room upstairs is terrible.

Summer stay

We have stayed in this property over the past few years. The location and scenic views from the house are priceless. The house is right on the beach, and you can see dolphins in the water from the living room. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pans, and appliances. The knives were a little dull and could be replaced or sharpened. There were plenty of beach towels and bathroom towels for use. The closet with beach supplies was great! The chairs were very nice and similar to ones you would get with rental service. The umbrellas were adequate. The inner tube floaties were fun for kids to use. The boogie boards were too small but there was one board which was adequate for use. There used to be a refrigerator in the beach supply closet which was handy to put drinks and snacks when you were on the beach but it’s gone now. I hope it could be brought back. The house is starting to show signs of wear over the years, but I can tell some updates have been made. The wood floor has been scratched up from all the sand that likely comes in with frequent guests. The lock to door on pool deck is broken. The lights over the stove were out with only one left functioning. The couch in the living room is somewhat odd. It is a large couch, but the seat is too wide so when you sit down, you are almost slouching to allow you legs to hang over the side. I’m short, but this was also the case for my husband who is almost 6 feet tall. I had a small issue with toiletries which were quickly resolved. Property management was very responsive to texts and requests so that was nice. A few things could use improvement. There is some wear and tear noted within the house but nothing that would keep me from staying here again. Overall, the stay was wonderful mostly due to the location, well stocked amenities, and the panoramic views from the house.

Beautiful location and Great Property - Pest problem

This property was beautiful and located in an AMAZING location! The first night we were there we noticed some roaches in the kitchen. I immediately called the after-hours number and left a message as well as emailed. I received an email from the manager the next morning that someone would be by to handle it. No one showed up and no one called all week even after multiple calls we made. I was disappointed with the results from mngmt and the lack of communication, especially based on the price we paid for the week.

The home was amazing, in an amazing, quiet area with everything we needed just a short car or bike ride away. The views are something you would think only belong to the rich and famous! We paid to heat the pool and it was very worth it. Seemed to be heated to around 97/98 degrees. Absolutely everything you need to have fun at the beach. We absolutely loved our stay and would absolutely return.
