It was beautiful with so much room for the different individual families. The pictures don’t do it justice. The owner was very accommodating and easy to reach. We also rented his jet skis and saw dolphins in the bay. I would recommend the plantation house especially for large groups. ##### Juleen W.

From check in to check out, our trip was seamless and easy. The owner was responsive to any questions or concerns and was quick to respond. The property and house are breathtaking! I personally enjoyed my coffee each morning on the back porch swing watching the sunrise. The beds are comfortable, everything was spotlessly clean, and the kitchen and bathrooms were extremely well stocked. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Rebekah B.

It was grander than expected - and we did not have modest expectations. So much attention to detail in the design of the house as well as all amenities and life comforts made the five nights stay fabulous. We all loved it! Thanks Nathan. ##### Lukas K.

We saw some excellent sunrises. The rooster and hens were fun to have around and each day the kids would look for eggs in the planter outside the kitchen window. The rooster does crow early, so if you don't like to wake early, just invest in ear plugs. The place is spacious, the pool was refreshing and the host was very responsive to our needs. ##### Karen S.

We had great grandparents all the way down to 18 months and the space was more than adequate for the 12 of us. Every porch is gated so we didn’t have to worry about the kids, beautiful views, fully stocked kitchen and the elevator was so helpful with luggage and laundry! The pool, perfect, boardwalk, amazing! The host responds quickly and is always helpful. It was just right for our large family, we needed a relaxing, peaceful getaway. You will not be disappointed if luxury and space are what you are after! ##### Judith S.

Family fun for a 7 night stay - ages 5 to 75 - 11 family members. Plenty of bedrooms and living spaces for us to spread out or to hang out together around the living room & kitchen areas. The pool was a big hit - as well as the 3rd story game room with pool table and big screen tv. The in house elevator was a big plus for getting luggage upstairs as well as our 2 over 65 gamily members. The master bedroom & bath suite were amazing! For a mostly adult group - bring extra wine glasses (there is a wine fridge in the kitchen). Highly recommend! ❤️😃 ##### Holly K.

Pictures do not do justice! There was room for everyone, beds were comfy, kitchen had everything you would ever need. Things the owner doesn’t share in the listing- there is a gate to get in the pool (huge bonus since we had a 3 year old with us), there was boogie boards and tons of sand toys to borrow, the fridge and kitchen was well stocked with basic condiments and spices. Pensacola beach is only 30 minutes away and gorgeous! This was truly one of the best rentals we’ve had. Everything was just perfect! Worth every penny! ##### Rachel A.

We loved the house for our family group of 11! Had enough bedrooms for cousins and parents and grandma to spread out! Pool was awesome and the house did not disappoint! Beautiful house and scenery. Went to Navarre beach several days. We fished at the boat dock and even caught a stingray one day!! The boardwalk and swing down by the bay were great in the mornings and evenings! We ate several meals at the giant picnic table looking over the bay. Spoiled the kitties a lot. Nathan answered our questions immediately and was willing to come at moments notice to help us if we needed it. Very relaxing vacation. Lots of spices and condiments(other visitors had left) in fridge so didn’t have to buy a lot of smaller items we had on our list for meals, so that was handy. The butlers pantry was nice to store our extra meal supplies. We used the charcoal grill a couple times. Only cons we found was no drink pitchers in the house so we had to go get some for tea and lemonade and also we ran out of silverware most days so had to keep them washed up so we had enough. ##### Breanna E.

The property is very secluded. Inside is very spacious clean plenty of outdoor space with a wraparound patio on two levels. The pool is great to have on site. There’s a nearby pond with fishing if you’re into that. There’s also two canoes for use on the bay. The top floor has a gym, which is great. My kids enjoyed playing pool on the pool table up there as well. ##### Pete P.
