Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay at Elation! The location was great! And it was nice to have the tram to get around. The only thing we that was a bit inconvenient was the parking. It was about an 8-10min walk to get to the extra parking which was no fun since it rained most of the time we were there. Despite that, there was a lot to do without even having to leave the resort. We ate, fished, swam and even shopped. Also, the staff at My Vacation Haven was absolutely wonderful!! They were always available to help with every question we had, including when my phone died and I was the only one with the code. They answered after 8pm so we could get into our room! As we left, we were already looking to book again for next year!!

Many good things about the property like quite, good view, nicely decorated, but two major drawbacks: The air conditioner didn't cool very well for nighttime cooling (wouldn't get any lower than 73 even with the fan so nights were unpleasant for us during the summer). Also, they didn't mention the parking would be far away (across the golf course with no place to park to unload/load). With this unit you evidently don't get a garage pass or parking pass on the surface lot near the building. The instructions on where the building was even located didn't exist, and GPS takes you to gated parking you couldn't access.

We were told we would have a parking spot in the garage and would get a QR code. I never received one and inquired the day before arriving. I was told our room was a lock off unit and the other unit had the garage spot and we would have to park in an additional parking area. It was actually pretty far away and very inconvenient! Thankfully we had nice weather and didn’t have to walk in the rain during our stay. Other than the parking and not being notified we wouldn’t have a garage stay, we really enjoyed our stay. The room was clean, had a great view of the bay and we loved being on the SanDestin Gold grounds. It’s very beautiful, has nice shopping areas and gorgeous sunset views!

I wish I knew a head of time; that I wasn't going to have a parking pass with a little one and luggage. The neighbors were very loud; would not do a conjoined room again. The cleanliness could have been better and the upkeep of the furniture. The rug is a tripping hazard.

We loved it only thing was parking because I didn’t get QR code I couldn’t use parking garage

Loved how close the village was and how easy it was to get over to the beach! Would’ve liked an option for an earlier check in but other than that it was wonderful! We’d love to come back!

The condo was extremely clean and kept up nicely. We had a view over the bay and a lot of natural light. The community/neighborhood was very friendly and safe. The check in process was extremely easy. However, parking is limited at night, but there is an extra parking lot that has extra spaces.

Overall a great experience, very nice location with so much to do in the area. Excellent instructions for parking and codes for everything needed. We new it was a studio, that worked for us as we weren’t in room often. It was nice but not the same as the pictures, especially color scheme, pillows. The only thing that I would say is a challenge is doing dishes in very small sink. We also checked in after a long travel day and just wanted to watch tv, it took awhile to get more than one channel, maybe directions for cable/satellite. Otherwise all was good!

Apartment is as-pictured. Clean, bright with a great view of the bay and a small part of the golf course. Balcony is large enough to stand on, but not large enough for a chair.
