Wonderful house everything was as described. Had a great time this was my 2nd stay at a Royal Sands house, 100% recommendation. 1/2 block to beach, swimming pool and golf cart was a great for hauling stuff to the beach!

The house is very nice and well maintained. It is in a nice neighborhood with good access to beach using golf cart. Having bear gear delivered and picked up at house was also very helpful!

Leave of Absence was the perfect fit for our three family get-away. The location was just far enough away from the crowds and the included golf cart made life easy. The house was just as described and sitting on the 3rd floor balcony each evening for dinner was the perfect ending to the day!! There was several a/c units so the house stayed cool on all three floors, no worries there!! The dishwasher wasn't working, but it was simply a minor inconvienence. We will definitely be back for our next trip!!

Great place!

This home is in an excellent location with a beautiful view of the Gulf. The kitchen is very well equipped with very high quality cookware and knives and a second refrigerator on the first floor to help with overflow storage. The beds and linens were very high quality and all very comfortable. Access to an elevator made load in and out especially nice. We will recommend it to all our friends.

The home rented was lovely and convenient. We already booked for last year. The few issues we had were handled by the office and Larry in the field. Alex booked us originally. Everyone was a pro and a pleasure to work with! See you next year.

Manager's Response

We had a great time and loved the house. It worked so well for our family that I’m giving it a five. There were a few glitches however. The elevator wasn’t on when we arrived so we couldn’t use it for unpacking right away. The second floor balcony door didn’t work. The golf cart was taken away for a few hours so we couldn’t use it. BUT, we had a great time and would come back!

Manager's Response

Thank you for the review.  We pride ourselves on customer service.  We are glad you will be returning and look forward to your next trip being glitch free!

House was very clean and ready for our arrival. Great views from the upper balconies on the front and rear of the property. Easy walk to the beach every day to enjoy the sunrise and sunset. The elevator in the home was a plus for our crew with elderly parents. Kitchens and bathrooms were clean and well-stocked.. Spacious rooms and plenty of comfy beds for a large group. We look forward to going back to Port A and this vacation rental in the future

Spacious 3 story home with stunning views from the balconies on the upper floors. Easy walk to the beach. Large suites on all floors with easy access to the laundry room on the second floor. Elevator was a nice feature for older visitors during our stay. Kitchens were stocked with plenty of pots, pans, plates, cups, and etc... Home was clean and ready for our arrival for the week

We had a great time, I have 2 adult children with their own families and it was perfect for everyone. The 1st level has its own space with kitchen, great for my son and their new 8month baby; 2nd floor was perfect for my daughter and her furbaby, plenty of room, we didn't even use the loft area that had the twin beds. The main master was on the third floor with the large kitchen and large patio where you can sit at and listen to the ocean waves. The only thing I do wish is that the elevator was accessible, as we were staying for a while and we made plenty of trips up and down the steps. The remotes to the tv were weird, never got a chance to watch tv in bed cause the remotes were missing or no way of turning the tvs on, but luckily we didn't care too much about them. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. Plenty of room outside and inside and love having the golf cart, we never even used our truck. Located so close to the boardwalk as well. Beautiful views hopefully nothing gets built in the back.

The property was clean, great Customer Service, They extended our check out. Location was perfect to access the beach, everyone one had their own bathroom and space. Would highly stay again and recommend!

We had an amazing week stay. The spacious layout made it more then comfortable for 10 of us! The decor was perfect for the beach setting! This unit is one of a few that has its privacy since it backs up to a fenced pasture with a few cows. The house was very well stocked and clean! We were able to have parking for 3 large trucks and our boat! The beach is easily accessible !

Nice, plenty of parking, close to beach walkover, suited our needs as we had 3 couples, 2 more adults needing their own space. The 4 and half bathrooms came in real handy. The elevator made it easy to get everything distributed between floors. A few minor issues, down stairs bedroom had a bit of dog hair and the a/c was warm, elevator has a large gap, so watch feet on eNtering and exiting.

Enjoyed out stay, especially the views from he upper deck. Nice outdoor furniture. Big enough to have dinner outside.

Not as expected

There was a big miscommunication on what the restrictions were as far as beach access, there was no information before the rental of the golf carts that they were not allowed to leave the community where beach house was, which didn’t serve any purposes after all, felt like i was robbed of this cost. Pet hair all over the place which caused allergies for many of us. Grill was locked up on side of house restricted to only grill in that area, away from where everyone else was in the direct sun. One of the outside chairs was broken (arm) which could have caused a hazard for anyone sitting on it. Beach house was nice, however dissatisfied with what I paid for and received due to the communication. This was a huge inconvenience for me with my handicap son.

Terrific getaway location!

Great location! Close to boardwalk to the beach and not directly in the city so it gives you the serenity and calm that a beach vacation is! Will definitely book again!
