Soul surfer comes equipped with virtually everything you need. It was clean, well appointed and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay.

The house was great! Loved the layout. My husband loved the mattress in the master bedroom. It was a little too firm for my personal preference. Plenty of pillows and towels. Patio/balcony off of each bedroom. We couldn’t use the smart function of the tv all week because we didn’t have the right remote and then the last night we found that remote squished under the couch cushions! We also discovered we could cast shows from our iPad on to the tv the last night. Wish we had figured that out sooner! Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Pantry was huge (needs a light in there though!) We appreciated the second fridge in the garage and the extra ice maker. Also all the chairs and beach gear was great! We were super close to the pool and beach and our kids loved riding the tram. The pool has a little bar and grill. Our only complaint would be the rules on the beach. No canopy tents are allowed so we had to rent umbrellas which is annoying because they’re expensive. They are also inferior to a tent in regards to shade and getting in and out from under it and visibility when you’re under it. The security guard at the entrance of the private neighborhood is the one who enforced the rules. So if your tent is compact and he doesn’t see it or you go later in the day, then I guess you could get away with it. We had a 10x10 ft tent from academy that he saw in our wagon and wouldn’t let us bring down. Some people set up small tents like the Sun Ninja or Shibumi so those would be good alternatives. Also you could only bring a wagon if a child rode in it. And no golf carts are allowed in the neighborhood or Rosemary Beach which is a bummer because they’re fun!

We had 4 families that comfortably enjoyed starting our summer at Soul Surfer. It is an amazing space with a great location at Seacrest. Minutes from the pool, beach, or peddlers pavilion. The amenities are the best we have experienced with bikes, beach and pool toys, inside games and toys, etc! Plenty of space for food and drinks for the whole week!

We were very pleased with the location of this house, the size of the bedrooms, and the “extras” available in the garage. The kitchen was also well stocked. Our family enjoyed our stay very much! And the Sandpiper reps were very helpful.

Rental property was great, but pool area had unreasonable rules and beach area was to restrictive of a space

OUR HOUSE WAS VERY NICE, BUT THE RULES FOR THE AREA WHERE IT WAS, WERE TERRIBLE. THE HOUSE WAS FAIRLY CLEAN, HOWEVER HOUSEKEEPING DIDN'T QUITE FINISH BEFORE THEY LEFT. THERE WAS DIRTY SILVERWARE LEFT IN THE DRAWER, TRASH LEFT AROUND OUTSIDE THE BUILDING (INCLUDING THE BALCONY), AND THE TRASH CAN WAS OVERFLOWING (VERY STINKY). THEY ALSO LEFT THE MAIN ENTRY DOOR OPEN. WHEN WE CALLED THE PROPERTY MANAGER AT 5:30 TO DISCUSS THESE ISSUES, THE VOICE-MAIL SAID THEY WERE OPEN UNTIL 6. WE GOT A CALL BACK AT AROUND 4 ON THURSDAY. THE STACKED WASHER/DRYER WAS WAY TO SMALL FOR THAT SIZE UNIT. THE BIKES DO NOT MATCH THE PICTURE. THERE WERE SEVERAL BEACH ITEMS IN THE GARAGE. THE POOL AREA WAS VERY LARGE, AND VERY NICE. THE WALK TO THE BEACH WAS A 5 MINUTE FAIRLY EASY WALK. THERE WAS HOWEVER ABOUT 20 STAIR STEPS DOWN TO THE WATER. THE BEACH IS WHAT MADE THIS VACATION, NOT SO MUCH OF A VACATION. MOST OF THE BEACH IS 'PRIVATE'. ABOUT 200' TO THE LEFT OF THE STAIRS IS FILLED WITH 5 ROWS OF OVER-PRICED BEACH CHAIRS. BEYOND THAT IS A DIFFERENT 'BEACH' YOU WERE NOT ALLOWED ON. TO THE RIGHT ARE MORE BEACH CHAIRS. THERE IS ABOUT 120' BETWEEN THEBEACH CHAIRS WHERE YOU ARE ALLOWED TO GO. WE HAD TO GET DOWN THERE AT 6AM EVERY MORNING TO 'CLAIM' OUR SPOT. WE WERE PACKED INTO THIS AREA LIKE SARDINES. THE WORSE PART WAS, THAT BEYOND THE CHAIRS TO THE RIGHT, FOR ABOUT A MILE THE BEACH WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. THESE WERE PRIVATE BEACHES FOR THE HOUSE. YOU COULD ONLY GO DOWN THERE BELOW THE HIGH TIDE LINE. THE AREA WAS VERY NICE, LOTS OF PLACES TO WALK TO. VERY EXPENSIVE THOUGH. IF YOU WANTED GROCERIES OR FAST FOOD, IT WAS ABOUT A 15-20 MINUTE DRIVE. THE SIDEWALKS NEEDED TO BE WIDER, OR A BIKE LANE NEEDS TO BE ESTABLISHED. WE WERE CONSTANTLY DODGING BIKES. OUR ADVICE, DON'T GO HERE UNLESS IT IS OFF SEASON. THE BEACH RULES MADE THIS VACATION STRESSFUL AND ALMOST UNENJOYABLE.
