Very beautiful, spacious home. We loved getting in the pool for a relaxing day during the trip. Definitely would recommend the location with it being so close to so many restaurants, shops, and things to do with the kids. Beach access was perfect as well!
Enjoyed my stay! House is very open, garage could easily fit two cars, and the pool area with grill was awesome. Kitchen was a bit small but still took care of our needs. The sunroom had a a funny smell. Overall I will come back!
House was very comfortable and family friendly...pool was amazing and very well kept, and was used several times each day. Only negatives were living room couches were not comfortable, and floors were not as clean as we would have liked...it looked like they had been cleaned with dirty water, particularly the in law suite, and by the end of the day, the kid's socks were black from the residue left behind. Overall, our stay was terrific, and helped make our family vacation amazing!!
We enjoyed our stay. The property worked out well for us with the way it is set up. Having the separate but attached space across the garage was helpful for our family. We had hoped the beach access was a little closer, but it was not hard to get to. Overall, we would recommend & we would come back again.
House was big and roomy , plenty of sitting space . Was very clean , beds were comfortable . The carport fridge was a very welcome addition . Pool was large enough for us all . Wish cleaners had come by and vacuumed sooner than they did , but still wasn’t an issue . We had a great time . Hope to be back next year.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Great location
We loved the location, private beach and pool. House was spacious for the 8 of us. House furnishings were outdated. All beds were uncomfortable.
Communication with property mgr was spot on.
Pool was very clean.
All in all we made wonderful memories.
We had a great experience with this house. Plenty of room for all 10 of us. The private pool was very clean and we used it every day, as the beach/ ocean was a bit too rough our week for a toddler. We found all the dishes we needed to cook all of our meals. Linens were clean and in great shape/ quality. Host was very responsive to any needs, not that we had many. House was very private, short walk or drive to the private beach. We would definitely recommend.
Loved having the private pool but it is not heated and cold! Master bedroom mattress was way too soft. Only 5 forks in the kitchen. Overall I would recommend!!!

Darla, I am so sorry, I inspected the unit right before y'all arrived and I must have overlooked that. I have definitely corrected that. I did enjoy speaking with you and I hope to host you and your family again.
Take care and stay safe and well,

This house was perfect for the Ten of us. The attached sleeping quarters was perfect for our son, wife, and 10, and 8 year old. Master suite was spacious with lots of storage, Our Daughter, husband, 4yr old and 2yr old had the Two other B/R and bath. We did bring a pack and play for the 2yr old. Kids enjoyed playing in Florida room even without A/C. Wi-Fi was a bit stained with all using it.
The private Beach was wonderful and close, and much less crowded then the other beaches. The pool was the best ever, it was large enough with lots of pool toys.the depth ranged from approximately 2.5 to 5ft. Would highly recommend this place for a large group.
The private pool was amazing to swim everyday with the kids. The beach was just a short walk everyday and the private beach was really nice. We enjoyed the space and it was perfect for our family and our daughters family too. Everyone had a great time. We enjoyed eating together at the big table and then everyone still had a separate space. It is just the right distance from Destin. The only changes I would make would be two fobs for beach access for two families and families with teenagers.Also, the separate in law suite needs an additional air conditioning unit, the boys were too hot to sleep and we did bring a fan which made it tolerable. Additionally, a golf cart would be a luxury addition. Very clean and great neighborhood! We hope to return.
We had a wonderful stay at Miramar beach. The house was large enough for eight adults and one infant. We never felt like we were too crowded or needed more space. The air conditioner kept the house cool during a very hot week (heat index was over 100 degrees). The pool was perfect and was a huge hit with the whole family. We cooked almost every night and loved having a grocery store less than five minutes away. The kitchen had plenty of glasses and plates, but it could use more spoons, coffee mugs, and baking sheets. The beds were comfortable, but the bunk beds could use better mattresses. We were concerned about only having one key fob, but we organized ourselves and it seemed to work itself out each day. We truly had no complaints and had one of our best family vacations ever.

Bathrooms need update...shower door on wrong , all toilet paper holders broke, stove terrible
Definitely older home and needs some tlc...bathroom in master has shower doors installed wrong, has no bars to get in or out of bath, new stove needed, no rails to get in or out of pool, outdoor patio lite broke, towel bar broke, poor wifi in in-law suite and tv in bunk bed area wouldn't connect to internet, bunk beds were unstable, garage light not working etc, etc. we made it work but wont recommend.
This home is comfortable, not fancy. It is spacious & offers plenty of room for multiple families. The private beach access is a wonderful perk as we could see how crowded all of the others beach areas were. The private pool was also a plus. The AC works great which is essential this time of year.
Sadly, the pool was never clean except right after the pool guy left. My suggestion is to trim the tree that is blamed for the mess in the pool.
I would also suggest that they go to the Dollar General & buy some hand soap instead of putting water in nearly empty soap bottles. Being able to wash our hands was something we didn’t think would be an issue. Fortunately, I brought my own soap (& trash bags). A decent ironing board & a cookie sheet would make for a well appointed rental.

Shelly, sorry the hand soap was an issue. I give cleaners tablets that dissolve in water because it is cleaner to store for them and to keep up seeing how CDR only supplies 24 hr of those types of amenities which is listed on the site. This area is zoned residential preservation so that a lot of the natural surroundings are left. The pool normally stays pretty clean with cleanings being twice a week unless we have a lot of rain and unfortunately, it was the week you were here. Sorry about the cookie sheet and ironing board. I will replace the cookie sheet did not realize it was missing. Take care and thank you for the review.
The house was spacious and had a lot of rooms. It was kind of outdated a bit in some areas. One of the rooms wasn't really for anything but it was the room right before you walk out to the backyard it smelled kind of bad. The rest of the house smelled good. Was really strong fragrance smell when we walked in. No golf cart as said they would have on the papers left on the table. They left a couple dishwasher tablets which was helpful and the place had dishes we could use. The cable was Cox it was just okay not many channels and the internet didn't work very good. There was an inground pool with a gate around it which was nice we enjoyed that alot. Most of the floaties we blew up had holes and would not stay inflated there were a few we used that were good. Overall it was a good stay and we enjoyed the house.

Amy, sorry it took me so long to respond. Sorry about the strong fragrance smell as you walk in I forget that the Scentsy fragrance I spray on the flowers might be too strong at times. The binder on the table about the Golf Cart is meant as a rule if a Golf Cart is rented the HOA likes for us to inform everyone about it and I will reword it so that there is no confusion. Sorry about the floats I go through them and air them up and try to throw all the ones away that have holes in them, guest love to leave them so there is always several. I'm glad you enjoyed the pool and I hope you got to enjoy the private gated beach area.
I want to thank you for informing me about some of the little issues with Beach Sanctuary and I will look into them all.
Thank you,
