    EXCELLENT! Service Was Top Gun! This is the absolute best company that we have worked with for vacation rentals. I do not often give a review; but, this review is necessary because of the outstanding service. I would give 10 stars if possible. If you are going to the gulf on vacation; you should definately rent from Beach Reunion Vacation Rentals!!!!!

    We enjoyed our time very much… great location to beach and lake in back was great for fishing. Some repairs need to be done on the dock wood for safety reasons and some other in house repairs too need to be fixed. The upstairs didn’t stay very cool since there is only 1 A/C regulator, which was for downstairs. A separate upstairs unit should be added. But it’s a lovely home overall and in a great neighborhood.

    We were greeted immediately through text about the house and response was immediate. This house was gorgeous. Entering this house you are greeted with a beautiful foyer and a spectacular view of out the living room floor to ceiling windows of the pool that overlooks the lake in the community.The grand kitchen with the open floor space was marvelous. I thoroughly enjoyed using the gas range to make my family a seafood feast. The master bedroom and ensuite master bath was a sight to see! Large tub and walk-in shower with 3 shower heads, including the rain head was marvelous.The house was clean, the neighborhood was very well lit for night walks or just a nice ride with our reacted golf cart. It's less than 5 minutes from the beach entrance so coming and going was very easy. My family loved the house and definitely enjoyed our night swims in the pool. Highly recommended!

    We had a group of 13 adults staying together. The description said there was a hot tub, but the management said that this meant you could use the community hot tub at the club house. The hot tub which was attached to our pool was not operable as a hot tub (jets didn't work and heat was finicky). Ownership transferred while we were there, so we had no WiFi when we got there, had to have maintenance bring a router and fix the pool heat. The buyers agent wanted to walk through the house during our stay and then didn't actually come (after I specifically waited around).The kitchen amenities could use an update but it was nice to have a crockpot. The stove desperately needed a cleaning. Otherwise, a lovely house in a nice neighborhood. Great view of the water. Would suggest replacing the rotten wood on the deck before someone gets hurt.LOVED the turtles that would swim up to the edge of the water.

    Our stay was nice! House was spacious and exactly like listing! Only issue we had was the pool! Heat stopped working multiple times! Outside grill needs cleaned and upstairs bunker couldn’t get lights to go off had to unscrew lightbulbs! Other than that is was perfect! Would stay again but when warmer out

    The neighborhood is very nice. This location is close to everything. The house is beautiful. It was only 1 thing wrong, one of the rooms was a full size bed, but in the description it said it was a queen size. Other than that, it was perfect
