Having bay and beach access is the best! We spoke with other guests on the beach who envied our location.

Wonderful week in Navarre

This property was exactly as described and perfect for our family trip to Navarre. The golf cart was such a helpful addition for easy transport to and from the beach, especially with kids. Communication from the property manager was excellent. We had one rainy day during the week and the house is set up well for an entire family to still enjoy a day indoors.
