We loved this house!

The house was beautifully decorated in beach decor which is always fun and was immaculate! Golf cart was on the old side but useable. Russell management has always been very responsive and great to work with ! Great vacation house!! One suggestion and quite affordable would be to provide cushions on the outside patio furniture just for an extra amount of luxury! Would highly recommend this house!

Nice Xmas getaway

Upon arrival the home was ready and for self checkin making it nice after a long 12hr drive. The house was beautifully decorated and clean it was very spacious for our family of 4 plus an extra guest. The home offered a golf cart making it nice to explore the nice resort community and the beach. The kitchen was stocked well with all the cooking items you need including a toaster, waffle maker, regular coffee pot and a keurig coffee maker. I would highly recommend this place and loved the house! We will definitely be back in the future.

The only, and don’t want to say negative, because it was a great stay, was the janky golf cart. It needs replacing. Other than that, we’d go back.

Great property

Family of 5-great house and location. Easy ride across street to beach on golf cart. The property management was helpful when the golf cart stopped working mid-stay. That was a disappointment and I recommend replacing the golf cart. We missed not having it when it wouldn’t hold the charge. Other than that, was a wonderful place to stay.

Nice villa and perfect location, needs a few updates.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Russell rentals was so good and easy to work with. Our Villa was beautiful and perfectly placed within the resort and had most everything we needed. What would make it perfect would be a new master bedroom mattress, my husband could not sleep much because it was so hard. The couches were very uncomfortable if you sat in them long enough. The other king bedroom didn't have working plug-ins beside the bed. And the golf cart most definitely needs to be upgraded; just one trip to the beach and back, you could feel it slow down tremendously, even though we charged it every evening. It was still nice to have though! There is ample room in the villa, and our master walk-in closet was HUGE! We hated to leave, but excited to sleep in our own bed and relax in our own recliners.

Perfect location and perfect size

My family’s stay here was perfect. We loved that we had a pond behind us and the house was close to the Sandestin entrance. The golf cart was very convenient. I have stayed in many vacation rentals and this by far has the most kitchen appliances, utensils, cookware, etc. We will definitely return.

Nice Condo, Great Location

Thank you for sharing your place. It was very clean and held 5 of us comfortably. The golf cart was a huge bonus, as were the beach chairs. I would recommend a heavier blanket for the master room, because the AC chills the condo through and through. Which is a good thing! Just need more bedding in the master.
