The host was accessible throughout stay. Condo was very close to the beach and had a wonderful view. The condo was somewhat outdated and needs updating and painting. The hot water heater was not large enough and we ran out each night with cold showers. The kitchen needs potholders and more forks and a Pyrex baking dish.

We really enjoyed our stay in Santa Rosa. The location was fabulous!! Right on the beach and close walking distance to shops and Restaurants. This unit met our family needs perfectly! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the balconies had lovely furniture with plenty of comfortable seating.

5 stars for convenience!

Seahaunts 1A is excellent for convenience. It's oceanfront view, pool access, and easy walk to restaurants and shopping make it perfect for families with kids. Very easy to get around. The unit is good size and worked well with our group. The cleanliness could be better. The sheets were mediocre. Some minor maintenance issues, like the peeling paint on the banister and the condensation on the air vents that dripped onto the floor. Although there were some issues, I would rent there again because like I said, the convenience is perfect.

Views

Views of the beach were wonderful. Someone reported it wasn’t clean for them but we found it clean. Being on the end of the building means more windows which was nice on cool days. Between the rows of buildings is a nice green space A note for those not familiar with the Emerald Coast: dogs need a permit for the beach and only property owners can get a permit. Gulf place was an easy walk for restaurants. Another note: on the stairs the top and bottom risers are different. Not a big deal but you need to be careful.
