Beautiful place!

We had a great stay for spring break. Location is unmatched and the property was perfect for our family of five. Dianne, the house manager, was extremely helpful and jumped on any issue we had during our stay.

Beautiful spot on a beautiful beach

The house and location were absolutely lovely and the kitchen well stocked. Some minor issues with the plumbing but it didn’t impact our overall enjoyment.

Beautiful Miramar Beach House

We absolutely loved it! The location is amazing and it was wonderful taking walks on the beach. The house was small but beautifully decorated with wonderful soaps and everything we needed in the kitchen. We will definitely come back!

Beachfront Perfection

My family enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday in this adorable beachfront home. The location was incredible as we fell asleep to the ocean and woke up to sunrise The property is small but comfortable. The large outdoor deck made it feel more spacious. We can’t wait to go back!

Incredable beach front property

I almost don't want to boast about this rental because I want to keep it secret, it's that good! Well decorated home directly on the beach, steps from Rosewood Miramar. Private, quiet, relaxing and chic. I can't say enough good things about how special this rental is!

Great spot

Took my family for a quick beach trip. The location is fantastic. Miramar beach is pretty chill and very dog friendly. We were within 10 minutes to everything we needed. The house is older and pretty small. However, its comfortable and the location more than makes up for it. Great getaway spot.

COZY BEACH COTTAGE

Perfect location on the beach! Walkable to the Rosewood Miramar Resort restaurants, shops and beach bar. Gated parking and easy arrival and check-in process. It's a cute cozy cottage, and - as the description mentions - the downstairs is completely separate via an outdoor staircase. The only negative was lack of air conditioning in the bedroom, but overall it was a perfect beach cottage!

Perfect

This place was perfect for our family of five. Three kids slept in lower room with very comfortable beds. Ocean right below us, can hear it all night. Steps away from the rosewood hotel. A mile or so from downtown with tons of restaurants. Private gated parking. Easy.

Beach House Getaway

This home is exceptional. It’s ideal for a couple or small family. The large deck over the beach is the perfect place to relax with family and have a bbq with a fully stocked kitchen. You can walk a few steps and you are on a beach that’s breathtakingly gorgeous. Coast Village Road is nearby with local farmers market etc and Danielle is a star and easy to communicate with if you have questions. Private gated parking spaces for two cars also makes it nice and easy. We can’t wait to go back!

Great host

Everything was great except the water. The water and the beach contain black tar oil. All of our swimsuits were ruined and the oil tar was stuck to our skin which was very hard to get off. I dont understand how such a major issue is not addressed with this area! The house, host and aminities were great.

We booked this place for a two-night spring break trip with our 5-year-old and our dog. The listing and location looked great, but unfortunately our stay was not.On the second day, I walked through the downstairs and came out with fleas on my legs. I picked them off and walked through again, same result. We notified the property manager. Our dog, who is on flea prevention, and had gone into the downstairs with me, also had a dying flea on her face. Initially, I was hopeful this was confined to downstairs, but unfortunately that evening I checked our bed before our son’s bedtime and found both a dead and live flea in the sheets.We packed up at bedtime and drove home that night. We then had to quarantine our clothes and luggage and comb through our dog to avoid bringing fleas into our own house.I reported the issue immediately through the platform with photos, and also called and texted. No response that night while we were trying to figure out what to do. Communication resumed the next day, and after back-and-forth negotiation we received only a partial refund.The manager said they deep clean between guests. I don’t question that, but fleas are a pest control issue, not a cleaning issue. Deep cleaning doesn’t eliminate an active infestation.Fleas in the living areas and bed, having to cut the trip short, decontaminating everything at home, and no communication when it mattered. I’m posting this mainly for the awareness of future guests.
