Chic and Blissful Beachfront Home Right on Miramar Beach!

8/10 Good
"The house was nice and the location, right on the beach, was wonderful. I must note that to get down to the actual sand part of the beach, you have to be willing to climb over some slippery rocks.I had trouble finding the property given the instructions. I was told to look for an opening in the hedge and it just so happened, that there was an SUV parked in the spot that hid this opening. I called the number to ask for help and the woman didn’t know how to help me and said she’d call back. Meanwhile, I wandered around a bit, dragging my luggage, until I happened to glance behind the car and then saw a sign. Additional signage would be quite helpful."

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful beachside bungalow overlooking a gorgeous ocean view. The house was super clean and very well stocked. All the rooms were adorned with comfortable sheets and comforters for peaceful nights. Parking was a breeze. We purchased boogie boards for the kids since I did not hear back from the rental agency regarding my question of boogie boards and beach equipment in the unit. Come to find a closet downstairs at the beach entrance full of chairs, boards, and even a paddle board. My only complaint has nothing to do with the house, but the very rocky beach entry making carrying anything to the sand challenging. All in all, we woudl return in a heartbeat and loved our time there! Recommend without reservation."

"Perfect for our needs and our pup loved it too. The gardens and big trees were just wonderful and we enjoyed hanging out in the yard in the afternoon. We walked the dog down to the beach regularly. The tar on the beach was inconvenient but we appreciated the cleaning supplies at the house. We cooked dinner regularly and found just enough pans and utensils to make it work. Would recommend."
