Ocean Sound-Large Family Home In Quiet Gated Neighborhood - Community Pool and Tennis Court - Garage

This home is advertised as a 5 bedroom rental but putting a bunk bed in a room at the front door and by the kitchen without doors for privacy is not a bedroom. Also pool and hot tub were not operating the entire week so the kids could not swim. There are no extra linens, meaning thin bedspread without any blanket or extra sheets in the entire home. Several broken beach chairs upon arrival. Nice community but would expect what was paid for.

This house was the perfect size for seven adults and three children. The quiet neighborhood home was a nice change from the condos in the highly populated areasthat we’re used to in Navarre. The pool was great, but could use some umbrellas for shade. The home is nice, the living room furniture is comfortable. The beds were WAY too firm for us! There are three blades missing from the vertical blinds in the master bedroom. There was also some mildew on the ceiling around an air vent and a small hole in the wall in another bedroom upstairs.The air conditioner works really well in the home. There is a strong mildew smell in garage area. Two of the four boogie boards are broken. The lower patio area has a rusted out, mildew covered swing that blocks the back door to the backyard and should probably be tossed. I would suggest adding a few kayaks, hanging some outdoor lights and adding a fire pit (if the community allows that). There was a doberman pinscher in the fenced backyard that backs up to this home’s backyard that is pretty scary. The owner was very good about taking the dog in when we would take the kids out. Kitchen had everything you would need. The table in the kitchenette only seats about four people. Overall, the home was nice and we enjoyed our stay.

Loved the area the house was in. Nice cove area for the grandkids to play.

This is a very nice house, plenty of space for large gatherings, good location, and generally very pleasant. The only reasons we hesitate on giving five stars include the following: the hot tub was broken. It seems like this may be an ongoing theme. This was a large seller for us. The house could stand to be more cozy. More pictures on the wall, better outdoor furniture (only has plastic Adirondack chairs and tables, some cracked), just more of a beachy vibe. The primary shower was able to be warm but just not hot, And the bikes are really needing some love. We brought a tire pump and wd40 with the hopes of helping a bit based on other reviews, but only a couple were actually rideable. With that aside, we were very satisfied. Kitchen was well equipped, there were beach toys, and mgmt was very responsive which was for two minor questions. A little extra attention would make this an absolutely amazing house for a getaway.

House and community were nice. We loved bay’s small beach area for our 4 year old! We watched a bird fish for its dinner, which was fascinating. Third-floor balcony view was amazing! Great communication. Sadly, the pool wasn’t heated (we had cooler weather) yet which we knew from description, and the hot tub didn’t work at all. Owner contacted the HOA and kept us informed, but it wasn’t resolved during our stay. There are multiple bikes, but many were rusted or had flat tires from the salty air. Beds were comfy; kitchen had what we needed. The starter kits in kitchen and bathrooms were a nice touch. Gulf beach was walkable formy husband with a backpack cooler, but we rented a golf cart for our little boy and other items. Overall, a great stay and would return!!

Wonderful home for adults and children. Came with 7 children under 11. They played in the sand, ping pong, the sound and never wanted to come in. Home was well stocked and had plenty of room! Very comfortable and convenient to anything we wanted to do. Would recommend this home to everyone!

The house was located in a nice neighborhood and really quiet. The house is great for young people who can get up and down stairs easily. Many stairs as main suite and most bedrooms are on the third level. The little beach at the back was nice. Unfortunately it rained almost our entire visit and the surf was rough and many jellyfish kept us out of the water. There was no information binder as stated in our sign in information but since we have been to Navarre before we kind of knew some of the things going on in the area. Overall the house had everything needed and was really nice. Thank you for sharing your home.
