We arrived at high tide and it felt like we were practically in the ocean. The house is unique and beautifully decorated in a way that reflects the area. Updated appliances and bathrooms. There were views from every window. It was minutes away from the Rosewood Miramar Beach Hotel where we dined at Caruso's, a Michelin Star restaurant. There are other great dining places nearby, as well. If you have the opportunity to stay at this beautiful house, don't hesitate......it's worth it. ##### Lynda M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maryann B. 28 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Super small bedrooms This place is really cute and charming and is in a great location, but the bedrooms are crazy small. Like our dog couldnt even turn around between the beds and the walls in the two kids' rooms, she had to back out. The kids' rooms have zero place for clothing as well - no dressers, closets, etc. We had to pile our suitcases in the hallway. Also, while its pet-friendly, which was a huge plis for us initially, it turns out theres no ideal place to take your pet out to go potty, esp at night. This is a cute peoperty, but i was expecting to be able to at least have a place for our clothes and was disappointed by the experience. And when i called to tell them we were checking out early and that i was unhappy and wanted to talk to someone, they never called me back. I hate leaving less than five star reviews, but i also want future renters to know what to expect. ##### Maryann B.
