Traveled to SanDestin for a CE conference. Rental was spacious, clean and offered an extremely relaxing environment during our downtime. Updated space with modern amenities - and, very comfortable beds! We will definitely return.
Place was exactly as described! Great locations and the golf cart could take us to the beach and shops with ease. The host was communicative and we found everything easily. The decorations really wowed us with plenty of extras available for our toddler and infant. One of the few places we found where the kids room upstairs could actually be closed off with a door to help with light and noise. The pool wasn’t that great but not of control by the host company. Would book here again!
The pictures and description of this condo was spot on!
We stayed here a week (6 adults and 7 kids) and never once felt cramped. Loved the screened in balcony and the decor was beautiful. Easy access to the pool and a quick 6 minute walk to the beach. This place was incredible!

Reviewer Comments:
Very nice unit and very clean. The only issue was that there are 27 stairsteps to have to climb to get from the parking level to the first floor level of the unit. It is in a great location for the beach and all the local attractions.
The townhome was great for accommodating my entire family, 4 couples/3 children. The home was very clean, lovely furniture and a great open floor plan. Loading up the golf cart and heading to the beach was super easy and a fun way to get around the property. There is a walkway alongside the home that leads directly to the pool. The management company was very responsive and answered all my questions in a timely manner.
Having a door code was so convenient for a large group and made check-in a breeze.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The townhome was very nice within the Sandestin Resort property. The golf cart was a necessity to get to and from the beach. Pool was very nice and a nice break from the beach. Spiral staircase to the "bunk room" might be an issue if you have small kids. Highly recommend.

We had a large group and this house was perfect for me and my family. Perfect location with a golf cart to get you to the beach. We always stay in Tivoli when we come to Sandestin but this is our first in Blue Haven but hopefully not our last. The place was very clean upon arrival. The only complaints we had was not enough towels and the dryer takes three cycles to get anything dry. Overall a lovely place!
The house we great - didn't care for the 5pm check-in and the 10am check-out. The TV wasn't working in the master bedroom but they did swap it out while we were there. The biggest challenge was that the weather was cool and we quickly ran out of things to do with 3 teens since the beach was out of the question (tennis, shopping, go-carts).

Been coming to San Destin for 20 years. Great place. Just when you go to the beach walk down to the right about 3 football field lengths to get away from all of the people that made bad decisions in their lives (tats, smokers, too much taco bell), and you will find much less crowded areas. The sheep seem to just walk down the stairs and sit in the sea of seven rows of chairs. Get some exercise and walk down the beach and you will find areas with very few people around you, and it is lovely.

I gave a 4 star review due to it being warm in the townhouse. Up stair bedroom was extremely warm and downstairs temp was barely 76 degrees during the day. The air conditioner maintenance came the last day as we were trying to pack and leave. I hope the next family had a better climate control. It was very clean and nice. Kitchen was stocked with any appliance. Overall stay was nice.

Reviewer Comments:
Beyond Blue were highly attentive and great to work with. Kelsey and Meredith not only answered all my emails in a timely manner but followed up when we were there to make sure everything was going well. The unit, which we have stayed in before, is extremely well equipped for large family gatherings- especially the kitchen. Tivoli is our favorite location in Sandestin - bigger units and easy beach access as well as basketball, pickle ball and some of our favorite restaurants at the entrance plaza! Great space for a large family the upstairs bedroom is key for our young adult children! The stairs are a bit of a challenge for our grandparents but there are rails so they were doable.
Thoroughly enjoyed are stay. The unit was as advertised- beautifully decorated and equipped with do much! The kitchen included not only many Dishes, glassware and mugs but also every type of cookware and prep utensils. Enjoyed the sleeping arrangements and bathrooms for each bedroom. The main suite bathroom was a hit for all with its large bathtub and shower! Others were small but adequate. It was nice to have a Regular coffee pot as well as K-cup single serve. Easily accessible to beach. Our group so appreciated the use of the golf cart and we were able to travel freely to not only beach but also to the one heated pool and the shop and activity area. Our time coincided with the New years celebration which included music and fireworks. Walking trails were utilized. Since we booked thru Vrbo as a 3rd party reservation we were not able to utilize some of the resorts and their amenitues without additional cost. Next time we will pay the extra fee to use the fitness center as it is well equipped.

Reviewer Comments:
Parking was horrible. I never once was able to park by our condo. No pantry. Went to the grocery store and had no where to store the groceries, had to leave everything out on counters. Beds were hard, need to put a pillow top down on mattress. Upstairs stayed hot even with 2 portable fans. It was dirty under the beds. Upstairs shower-during use water also leaked on the floor. TV's never worked properly. Living Room TV would just stop working and turn off or get stuck on one channel. Kitchen faucet was loose.
The condo itself is very nice and well furnished. It was spacious for our family of 10. The upstairs bedroom does get quite warm though. The Sandestin community is lovely with a great pool right by the condo, and it's fun to travel around with the provided golf cart. The beach is beautiful but insanely crowded on a mid summer day. I'm used to working with private owners with prior rentals, not a company, and the difference in communication and familiarity with the property showed. There is an app that is used but seems to have more generic info than specific to this condo. We were given incorrect instructions about trash, which led to some embarrassment with the neighbors, and were told there weren't any beach chairs or umbrella and there was, which could've saved us the trouble of traveling with those. There also aren't any beach towels provided, which is also a hassle to have to travel with. We had a few small issues (non working toaster, clogged sink, etc) and when communicated to the company they did address it. FYI there is also an extensive rental agreement to sign.

Reviewer Comments:
I wanted to really enjoy this place. I mean golf cart, beach access close to the condo. First, this place has zero parking near the room for most the entire stay so you had to park and walk to the room. Also, one of the beds was full of sand from previous renters. Which means the cleaning crew didn’t even bother to look or change the sheets. Not to mention sand was all in the floor we had to sweep once we arrived. The beach access is absolutely the worse I’ve had while vacationing in Florida. It’s near the hilton on Sandestin and they have the entire beach covered with beach chair rentals. It’s 8 deep from the front to back and from side to side as far as you can see. So unless you plan on forking out $300 for the week on a chair don’t expect to be anywhere close to the water. Also, it was so packed it was unreal worse than spring break in my opinion. I will never stay here again.

Bring your own hair dryer-there was not one in the home.
Very easy check in process, the manager send very detailed instructions about the procedure. The kitchen had everything and more than we expected. Bedroom better than imagined very spacious. It accommodated 10 adults and we felt very comfortable at the property. Highly recommended and we will definitely return.
Our family enjoyed this property. Descriptions are spot on. Awesome location and golf cart to beach and Baytown wharf are super convenient. Decor is beautiful and functional.
The property was clean, nicely appointed, comfortable and perfectly fit our needs. We had kiddos that enjoyed the bunk room. A picture of the stairs on the outside of, and leading into the building, needs to be placed in the listing. We had an elderly family member with us and the stairs were unexpected, and proved difficult. We also had an internet outage in the building occur during our stay. This was problematic as a family member was trying to work remotely during our stay. However, overall we enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property to others.
