This house is amazing! It is the most well appointed house we have ever rented. The furniture and decor are very pretty. It has everything you could ever need. The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans, cooking appliances, cutlery, plates, cups and more. Every room is spacious with plenty of extra pillows and blankets. The bunk room is so cool. Big built in bunks that our grandchildren loved. The master bedroom is very pretty and the master bath is beautiful. The garage contains so many things! Extra bikes, beach wagons, beach toys (so many beach toys), extra refrigerator, paddle boards and a kayak. An absolute hidden gem is found at the end of the cul de sac in a beach access to the sound side. As you walk down the walkway and round the corner you are greeted by a beautiful beach area. It was truly gorgeous. Going out of the complex and crossing the road a short way is the gulf side beach access. The pool and hot tub are also good.Our local family joined us one evening for dinner and there was plenty of room for everyone. We are delighted to have found this wonderful house and will definitely stay here again. Thank you Bay Side Retreat for providing such a great house and taking the time to thoughtfully stock your home with everything anyone could possibly need.

Family Fun

This house lacked for nothing, Amenities galore! I would definitely recommend you rent a golf cart as it is a hike to the beach with all the gear needed for a fun day. The community pool was small but that’s not what we come to the beach for. We would definitely rent this home again.

Between the Bay and the Beach

We had never stayed by the bay and this was a fantastic first experience. A short walk to the bay and we enjoyed putting our lawn chairs in the water and cooling off - be sure to look for the walkway, the sand is so fine it is difficult to walk. When we wanted a change, the beach was just a few blocks away and there are public parking areas so you can drive or use a golf cart. The house was equipped with everything we could possibly need, plenty of room for three families to spread out and the manager was very responsive to any questions. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Fully furnished beautiful home with beach access on both sides.

Our group of 11 had a wonderful time & couldn't get over how beautiful the house is. We were very close to what seemed like a bay which was came waters that the little & adults enjoyed the most of. We were also not far from the bigger beach. We will definitely plan another visit to Navarre Beach & hopefully be able to rent this house again.

Beautiful house, great location, get a golf cart!

This house is fantastic. We had three small families with younger kids and a grandparent and everybody slept comfortably. Living room nice, kitchen nicer than what we have in our homes. Gated neighborhood was nice and really good for the kids and the neighbors were all friendly. The walk to the sound/bay was very easy and it was good for kids, however the beach was a solid three blocks away. Walkable but too much with kids and toys. It made the golf cart we rented super important and strongly strongly strongly recommended!

Won't use VRBO again

VRBO charged me $411 just to book this property. That is a ridiculous amount of money. I was unaware of these charges before they hit my credit card. I will NEVER use VRBO again. These were charges by VRBO - NOT the owner of the property.

Family vacation

The check in process was simple and easy. The location is perfect for a great spot on the beach, which is not as crowded as the beach further down with an awesome access point that is super close to the house. The house was very spacious for our large party of 10 with two children included. We loved the large table in the dinning area for family meals and there is a wide selection of cookware in the kitchen. The master shower and beds are super comfortable. Loved the bunk beds which added additional sleeping arrangements. We can’t wait to come back and stay!

Beautiful Home

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home. It was super clean and so well stocked with anything you would ever want! Our kiddos loved the bunk room and all the beds were comfortable. Location was great and loved that we could also go to the sound side for calmer waters. The only downside was the pool was closed the entire time we were there and the pool was the main reason we chose this home.

Wonderful home in an excellent location

Gorgeous home that fits the pictures/description perfectly. All rooms were very spacious and large enough for two adults and the kids LOVED their bunkbed room. easy to get to the beaches that are close to walk to but it helps to have a vehicle or rent the golf cart for the larger beach around the corner to haul your gear. definitely would recommend this home to others

Great house

Very comfortable well equipped home. Loved that every bedroom had its own bathroom. Had 9 adults and two kids and plenty of room. Could have had more kitchen towels and wash clothes. Loved the extra refrigerator in the garage. Loved the extra beach chairs, wagons and beach towels. Outdoor steps needs better lighting and are VERY slippery when wet. Would recommend putting a traction strip on the steps. Has two people fall on the steps during the week. Overall this was a great home and would recommend anyone to stay here

10 of our family enjoyed this beautiful home - 6 adults and 4 children. With 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms there was plenty of space for all. Having close access to both the bayside and gulf beaches was really convenient. I would recommend renting the golf cart as the beautiful Gulf of Mexico beaches are about 0.4 miles away.

Great property

The property manager was very helpful leading up to our vacation and through our entire stay. When we arrived, we were very pleased with the location. The house was very spacious with ample room for our party of 12. The color and decor in the house make it feel like a luxury vacation. Kitchen is well stocked but not overstocked. We still had plenty of room for what we brought. There is a large pantry as well as 2 refrigerators (1 downstairs in the garage). We couldn't get the Icemakers to work. Would have been nice to have but we managed. The bedding and furniture were comfortable. The kids enjoyed the bunk room. The neighborhood was quiet with the community pool and hot tub just down the street. The bay was a short walk. The beach on that side isn't much but the water is shallow enough that the kids can play without worrying too much. The paddleboards were a bonus on the bay. The gulf is about a 4 block walk. Its more than we wanted with 6 kids and beach gear in tow, however, we rented the 4 seater golf cart and had no problem with the distance. We just made a few trips to get everyone and everything to the beach and back. The golf cart actually gave us something extra to do and was enjoyed. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy the rental. We definitely recommend it.
