Great spot, disappointing property
Great spot along Pensacola Beach but unfortunately our family reunion had a dark spot. This property is NOT what is portrayed in the listing's description or pictures. There was NO table with chairs on the back patio, there was NO picnic table, there was NO hammock. The backyard was so overgrown it was virtually unusable, the rooftop deck was in terrible and unsafe condition, there was garbage lying on the front yard up against the house. The interior was filthy with disgusting stains on the inside of the entry door, on many of the kitchen cabinets and the furniture was stained dark with wear that had to accumulate over years of use. To VRBO's credit they forced the owner to refund our money (minus VRBO fees etc.). BEWARE

House needs work
The house was just ok. The location was great! But, there were a few issues with the house. The landscaping needs a major makeover, long weeds everywhere, unable to use volleyball net in the back yard. The upstairs deck has boards missing. The chimney leaks when it rains causing big puddles of water on the living room floor. The pull out sofa bed had cheetos and looked filthy! The pics posted online must be very old, the ocean view is now almost completely blocked by other beach houses now. Photos show nice colorful beach chairs in the yard but they werent there when we were there. If you can get passed all that you will enjoy your stay. Overall we enjoyed it.

Family beach vacation 2023
There was 11 of us ages 4 to 60. Everyone had a great time there was even room for everyone to sit down at the same time. The house was really close to the beach and had everything we needed. It was an older house and didn’t have all the steps to get into it a big plus for me. Very clean and nice. A very short drive to restaurants. Plus the beach was not crowded

Great House
We had a wonderful stay! House was super comfortable and close to the beach. Working ceiling fans in every room which is a must for us. The backyard was perfect and just what we needed for grilling dinner. Property manager was great and easy to get in touch with. Over all a great house.

Cozy Place
The house is nice; although, it needs some updating of the place and some of the furniture. Communication with Stephany is excellent. She is responsive. I did tell her the need for new cleaning people, the place was very dirty. I sent her pictures of the ceiling fans with thick dust on them. She did recommend to wash all the dishes before using them. Location is amazing. Slight views of the gulf. Dog beach is close. Nice and felt like safe neighborhood.
