Wonderful home! We loved all the out door space and pool and comfortable interior! Some heads up for mgt., ceiling light out and cover off in Master bath commode area, hair dryer doesn’t work in Master bath, light over stove is out, there is no can opener - weird, you have everything else! The outdoor sofa could use some cleaning, but we loved it and will look up Sato in the future!

Home away from home

We have vacationed in Destin annually over the past 4 years and being the time of the year, wanted to try out something different and warmer. Anna Maria fit that need perfectly. It is very family friendly and seemed very authentic with no real big chain restaurants. Being a family of 6, we always prefer renting houses. This property was perfect. Beautiful setting with the Bay right in the back yard. A two min golf cart ride from the beach...basically walking distance if we wanted to. This house is in a nice quiet cul-de-sac, so very minimal traffic or noise. Our family enjoyed renting some bikes and going for our daily morning ride. Will definitely try to rent this property again next year.

Just short of great

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The positives were definitely the location, a nice view, great pool and spacious bedrooms. We kayaked almost every day from the dock and loved riding our golf cart to the beach and taking daily walks in the neighborhood. The reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because some of the niceties you expect while paying a lot for a home were missing. The towels provided were the bare minimum (for the house and pool towels), there were no bath mats, soap, shampoo, curtains or much decoration in the rooms or bathrooms. It just looked a little stark. We have paid the same price and stayed in other properties with some nicer touches. Not sure I would stay again considering other places you could stay in the same area.

Thanksgiving Stay

Overall the property is very good. When we arrived there were some items that needed some attention and the property manager came and took care of them. I will say overall cleanliness could use more focus. We had some bird messes, cigarette butts and dirty fans that needed to be cleaned up. These should be taken care of between stays on a regular basis. We did have a broken stair that had to be taken care of right away, two broken pool tiles and a TV that had a blown speaker. Again, the property team came and fixed the stair, tiles, and replaced our TV with a new one. These are also items that should be caught during routine safety inspections. A few things that could make the stay better are some Beach Items such as Chairs , Umbrellas and a Wagon. The chairs they did provide were broken or old. There was no umbrella or wagon. We rented those items. They could use more Pots. We wanted to cook pasta but there were no deep pots to do so. So we improvised as best we could. I also wish they had smaller fishing poles but there were some provided. Overall it was a very good stay and management team responded very quickly.

Location and space, what we needed!

We enjoyed the house tremendously! The pool was warm, the access to the water was perfect. The house needed a power wash of the entire exterior, but they were about to do that when we left. The floors seemed a bit dirty, so I mopped again after a couple of days. We could of used a bit more towels, but I just washed during the two week stay. All in all, it was a great house!

Christmas Family Vacation

This house worked out great for our family. It is well stocked with everything we needed to prepare Christmas dinner and all other meals. View was beautiful and pool was well heated. We rented a golf cart which was great for getting around the island and to the beach. The microwave stopped working on Christmas Eve day and a replacement was brought right over. We would definitely rent through Sato Real Estate again.

Disapointing

For the cost of this property per night I was expecting a property that did not require maintenance, was trouble free and a little bit of luxury for the 4 days I spent there with my family from the UK. Collecting the keys with no one to greet you was a little shocking. Upon arriving at the house I found the master bedroom curtains and rail thrown in the master closet, I had to call the emergency number as when I was called back I was told it could not be fixed on a Sunday. I insisted that we should not be expected to sleep in a room with no window coverings and a repair man did show up. The fridge had been turned down to 43 degrees by cleaners and we did not realize until the next day, unacceptable. Food was spoiling. The water filter in the fridge had obviously not been changed recently because water tasted bad and so did ice. So we had to make another trip out to purchase water and ice, unacceptable. The BBQ grill was beyond dirty, with at least 1 inch of fat or food debris in the bottom. The outside blind on the upstairs deck did not work. The listing stated that the property had games, only decks of cards were found, so no games at all? The upstairs twin bedroom was unbearably hot so we could not sleep in that room. And for a property we were paying $$$$ per night for we would of expected the toilet paper to be more than one ply!!!! The property has several maintenance issues and for the amount of money your paying these should all be taken care of. I hope the owners get to read this review and take some more time to fix these items as well as grout work needed on flooring, paint touch up and all other issues mentioned. Not a great experience for the amount of money we paid it was disappointing. Lastly I had sent 2 messages prior to arriving a few weeks before on the VRBO link to owner and never received a reply! why make this an option if your not going to reply????, I had to contact Soto to try to get these questions answered but because they do not know the property the answers were very generalized.

Great vacation spot

Three generations under one roof and yet private if necessary. Close to everything and the weather was just what we wanted. We saw manatees swimming and ospreys fishing. The pool was adequate for eight of us. The cooperation and response from Satos personnel could not be improved. Thanks for a great family vacation...we will return next year.

Wonderful place

The property was clean and had all the necessary amenities. The views from the house were beautiful. Windows all around provided a panoramic view that was spectacular. Loved that each bedroom had its own full bathroom. The house was spaces and bright. The porch outside the family room was enclosed as well as the pool area with a screen, so we could sit outide without being bothered by insects. Would rent it again. Perfect for two families.
