The location was absolutely perfect! We loved the easy access to the sound beach area. Views were lovely. We could watch the sunset from the backyard. Short drive to the gulf beaches. We had 7 kids ranging 4-11. The backyard and bunk beds were a favorite for them. We would definitely stay again. House was clean and big enough for our whole family.

Great property for a family

Love the house and location. It was walking distance to the bay and ocean. We also enjoyed being able to drive the golf cart where needed. The kayaks and bikes were a great addition to the rental. We used them daily. The only issue we had were the amount of bathrooms. We had 3 families staying in the house and the 2.5 baths were challenging at times.

Dream beach house!

This place was perfect for our family! Located on the intercoastal/sound was nice with our young grandchildren. They could play in the sand & by the calm water just steps from the house. It was a great place to try out the paddle board too. The house was movie set beautiful! With accommodations that suited our multi-generation family perfectly. The open concept kitchen/living was well appointed. A fully stocked kitchen made cooking our food easy. We used the lower outdoor kitchen too. The golf cart was newer and very nice to tool around in. The pool was cold, but we expected that. The hot tub was nice, warm & clean. Everyone was sad to leave. Thank you!

As we had to wait for our rental to be cleaned, they graciously put us in another rental so that we could have air conditioning while we waited. They went above and beyond.

Paradise!

Just what we needed! It was a great family vacation- plenty of breathtaking moments here! Amazing views - sunsets were amazing! Easy walk to private beach on the sound. Loved the pool and we took advantage of the golf cart to scoot around the island! The house was super clean and stayed cool. Not a bad room in the house! Laundry on the second floor was fantastic! Lots of closet space and plenty of bathrooms to go around. Kitchen was spacious and we appreciated the large dining table and seats at the bar top! Speaking of bar— the downstairs mini bar and grills was great! Seating for the sunsets and mini fridge for cold beverages! Smart tvs in every room made it easy to enjoy. The pool was awesome and relaxing! We also needed a cart during the stay, the management was super helpful and quick to respond to offer to bring one right over! We loved we could include our pug Daisy on the trip! And you will not regret renting for the sofa swing upstairs!!!! We will most definitely stay again and would definitely recommend Navarre Beach Rentals & staff!!

Quick beach getaway

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: Pros:Nice location: The rental is situated in a very beautiful area, you can see water from the house and it is a very short walk to the beach on one side and just a few minutes drive on a golf cart to the gulf.Beautiful house: it is new, it is very modern, has appliances for a comfortable stay, and it accommodates a big company.Cons:Very loud air conditioning: The noise from the air conditioning vents is disruptive and makes it difficult to sleep peacefully. This issue significantly detracted from the overall enjoyment of the stay.Limited bathrooms: With only two bathrooms available for a group of 12 people, there were long waits and inconvenience, especially during peak times such as mornings, evenings, and after beach.

Beautiful week in Navarre

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was clean, comfortable & as pictured. Chad was always quick to respond & to supply couple items that were missing. Location & the view from back were nice if you want on the bay side with a quick golf cart ride to the beach. (would not be as good without a golf cart) Small disappointment was that the outdoor table fire-pit did not work, the outdoors area needs a little sprucing up, the community pool is not much and the hot tub was out of order & looked to be neglected. Construction going on nearby & 2 porta pots to look at. Overall, we had a nice quiet week, but guests moved in next door on our last day, & that would make it too close for comfort for an extended stay. New beach chairs and umbrella were a plus; bikes & kayak were fun. The golf cart was definitely a big plus!
