This property is great! The house was very clean. The location is across from pool, which is nice on those Red flag days when you cant get in the ocean. All the beach stuff in the garage was super helpful also. Chairs, wagon, floats, sand buckets, and more. Will definitely be staying here again.
This is an amazing house at an amazing resort. The house comes with everything you could need and is in a great location. My kids loved taking the golf cart to the beach and Baytowne Wharf. The garage is full of toys and beach gear. Property owner was a pleasure to deal with.
Our first time on this property and it won’t be our last. The family and I didn’t want to leave. Had a marvelous time. Amenities galore!! Property was just as it was described…beautiful…cozy! Perfect!

Clean home with 2 golf carts and a great golf course view
The home was clean, a good size for a family and a spectacular view of the golf course. Having 2 golf carts was very helpful and a great means of transportation around the resort. The kitchen was well stocked and perfect for feeding a family. We would rent this home again!

We were amazed at the quality of the home and the personal touches that made our stay fabulous. The owner's had the property in immaculate condition for our arrival, with clear instructions on everything Sandestin and the personal amenities offered to their guests. We highly recommend Tuscan Tides to all.
We recently stayed at this property with my whole family 6 adults and 4 kids. The house accommodated us well. The golf cars made it easy to get around the property and enjoy all the amenities. The pool across the street was very convenient. The Wharf was close by and had a lot of fun activities, and it was easy to drive the golf cars over to. The kitchen was very well stocked with really anything you might need. Highly recommend this property, as well as the owners, they were very responsive and kind

Kristie, so glad you loved all the amenities our home and community has to offer. Hope to have you back soon. Thanks!
The house is lovely. It was great to have 2 golf carts. Communication with Chris was great and he was very responsive.
My only complaint is there should be more bath towels in each bathroom.
The kitchen had everything we needed.
The kids really enjoyed the bunk room
Thanks for a lovely time

So glad you enjoyed your stay. We are happy to add more bath towels and appreciate you calling this out. Come back soon. Thanks
Our stay was wonderful, the home is so well stocked and had everything we needed. The only negative was the Wi-Fi was not working very well and the cable went out on the TV first day and we never got it back, but we looked at as a good thing we all just enjoyed being unplugged. All and all it is a beautiful home. Thank You

Patricia, so glad you all enjoyed your stay. Love your attitude to be unplugged albeit and community wide outage. Internet outage was an entire community and the good news is Cox is back up and running with internet and TV. First extended outage we had so happy to report all good now. Hope to see you guys again soon. Thanks
Fantastic location...a short golf cart ride to the beach, restaurants, The Village at Baytowne Wharf, shopping and one of pools is just across the street! My entire family adored the house. It has everything you need and having 3 daughters, we really appreciated having a bathroom for every bedroom. Hair dryers and even beach towels were there to use which was great in case you didn't bring your own. The beds were comfortable, plenty of additional pillows and blankets available as well. The property owner was very responsive and a pleasure to work with, would stay again!

My family and I escaped the Iowa weather for gorgeous Sandestin. The home and community (Baytown) far exceeded our expectations. The home is gorgeous, tastefully decorated, and amply supplied with everything you could need. It is nested on a quiet golf course setting where I enjoyed a lovely cup of coffee in the mornings. The golf carts were perfect for our trips back and forth from the beach. The Village at Baytown Wharf was a perfect spot for dining, entertainment, and shopping. We will definitely be back. Thank you!
This home is absolutely beautiful and elegant. The kitchen is open with plenty of space for everyone and everything we needed to cook was provided. We had our family and my son’s grandparents with us and there was plenty of room for all.
The two golf carts provided absolutely added to the fun. We quickly realized that golf carts are the best way to get around Sandestin.
The house is a 5 minute golf cart ride to Baywarfe with shops and bars and restaurants. There is plenty to do there with all ages.
There are multiple pools, including one directly across the street, within 10 steps of the house!
It’s a bit of a haul to the beach though. It is about a ten-15 minute golf cart ride. We ended up driving to the beach instead of taking the golf carts. It was easier for us to lug all of the beach gear.
The home provides EVERYTHING you need for the beach. There are beach toys, chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, towels and even a beach cart.
A few super small things: a dresser drawer was missing from the master bedroom. We needed a new golf cart charger while there (owner did bring one over during our stay) We noticed that only the master bedroom has a dresser. Even thought the closets are huge, there weren’t places to put folded clothes. Other than that this house is perfect and clean and we would love to come back!

Jacquelyn, thank you for the fantastic review and so glad you enjoyed your stay. Also, thank you for calling out the need for more drawer space. We will address that immediately. Always looking for ideas to make our place the best!!! Hurry Back!
Great place in San Destin. Would recommend! Wonderful property. 5 star!
The house was great! Perfect and exactly as described! Two golf carts are so convenient to give the family flexibility around different activities. The house has some great upgrades. The master steam shower is something you must try. A real spa like experience. The grill is perfect! Brand new and makes cooking in for the whole family a breeze. House is very close to the neighborhood pool. We used the “other” pool which is heated! Was perfect for small kids with the shallow water and beach entry. Kids loved the bunk room. The kitchen is AMAZINGLY stocked with supplies and upgrades. Full sized washer and dryer. The A/C in the house is ice cold. Really nothing negative we could think of during our stay. Give this place a try! Perfect location to all things San Destin. Publix and Starbucks a short golf cart ride away! The Village at Baytown Wharf is a 2 minute ride on the golf cart! A+ all in all. 5 star Florida vacation stay!
We really liked the property. It accommodated is very well. There were two matters, however, that we believe can be easily addressed that would result in the property being perfect. (1) The covers on the sofas need to be cleaned more regularly. The minute I walked into the house, I could tell dogs had been on the sofas, even though we thought the house had a “no pets” rule. A general washing of the cover probably could have taken care of that. (2) The house probably needs a regular exterminator service. We saw roaches upstairs a few times.
Other than those, the house was great and we had a great time.

Hi Cecil- Thank you for your review and we’re glad you liked the property. Our goal is for all guests to have a five star experience. To our knowledge, no pets have ever been in the house. We don’t allow pets. We Immediately washed the slip covers after seeing your review. We were definitely alarmed to hear you saw pests in the house as we treat the home regularly. We have looked all over the house and were not able to locate any pests or entry points. As this is Florida, we would recommend guests keep doors shut to avoid potential pest entry.
So much to do and see at this resort. Planning our next trip already.
