Location was ideal. Only gave a four star on cleanliness due to multiple stains on couch and dirty bed skirts that appear to not have been changed for quite some time. Outside furniture on deck was also covered in stains/appear to have never been cleaned. Overall enjoyed our stay, but would have felt better relaxing on furniture that didn’t appear and feel dirty.

We had a fantastic stay at this property with our 3-month-old and 20-month-old—it was perfect for our family of four! The location couldn’t be better, just steps from the beach, and we used the pool every single day, which was exactly as described. Everything in the listing matched up perfectly, and the beds were very comfortable.One of our favorite moments was sitting out on the upstairs deck while it rained—it felt so peaceful and relaxing. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of cooking supplies, making it easy for us to prepare meals at home, which we really appreciated with two little ones.We did run into a minor issue with the combo door lock sticking, but their emergency line had someone out to fix it very quickly while we enjoyed our time at the beach. The communication and responsiveness were excellent—they truly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy.Overall, this was money very well spent. We would absolutely recommend this home to other families looking for a relaxing and convenient stay near 30A!

Everything was great about the house, the property and the area. But, we were just really disappointed to find out, the "private beach" was shared among other properties outside of this gated community. And not only that but about 80% of the beach was occupied by HUNDREDS of rental umbrellas and chairs. And this made the beach packed. Everyone was literally within a few feet of someone else on the beach. As the neighboring properties had no one on their "private beaches" as crossing the line was strictly enforced. Had i known i could have posted a picture i would have taken one as it was nearly (but not really) comical. I would have loved to gave it 4 or 5 stars but we go for the beach and this wasn't much enjoyable, so i have to be honest and hopefully save someone else from this surprise.

We had a nice stay at Mare Sole. However, staying in this gated community did not have the privacy as expected as so many beach goers were shuttled in from other properties and over-crowded the beach area. Not sure if we would come back for that reason.

Great, but....

The property was great and Denise our property manager was helpful. I was GREATLY disappointed that my daughters bathroom bag was left behind and the cleaning crew did not turn it in. The big loss was a 500 mouth retainer. I can't believe someone was not held accountable.

Great company, great owners

Michelle and her Paradise Properties Team addressed every issue, request and questions we had, in a timely manner. Checking in to make sure our arrival was smooth. If you are really lucky you may get Denise Binns as your contact person. She is a valued employee, a caring and considerate person, whom we found so enjoyable to work with. The owner has a fabulous kitchen to work in and for our 3 month stay we were able to cook like we were at home. The location of this sweet rental allows walking to both, Rosemary and Alys Beach. We’ve never been spoiled in a rental,with a gas fireplace, to take the chill off, on those few January nights. Proximity to the beach was minutes away. Many thanks to all who made our stay memorable . Lovers of 30A

Seacrest Beach

Pros- The location is great! Right between Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach. Bike or walk to restaurants in the area. Cons- the place was dirty. Hair sand and dirt on the floors. Management came to inspect after requesting a vacuum. They swept with a broom and left some extra bath towels. Still turned our feet black if we went barefoot. The place could use a deep cleaning. We will stay in the area again but will try a different rental.

We loved the location with close proximity to Rosemary Beach, Seacrest Beach and Alys Beach. Disliked the beach access due to the busyness of the beach and the umbrella rental company having first dibs on prime beach spots.

Great property, some noisy neighbors, could be cleaner

We made some great memories in this house on our first family vacation. The location was great, but the beach was super crowded with folks from outside the community. The neighbors behind played loud music every night and the ])property was dusty as well as the floor very dirty. Also, though the pots and cookware were okay, the lack of essentials like cooking oil, salt / pepper and herbs made for a rather expensive and wasteful purchase at the grocery (since we couldn't fly back with these). We won't fret the details, all in all great family vacation.

Great Property - VERY Crowded Beach Area

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was the perfect size for our small family, and we enjoyed riding bikes with easy access to Seacrest/Rosemary Beach areas along with a nice pool overlooking the ocean. The beach area is a nightmare during the day, though. The beach chair companies take up most of the beach and apparently need to be booked many months in advance to even have a chance of securing a couple of chairs. The area where you can setup your own umbrellas and chairs was so crowded that many people were unable to use the beach at all during the peak times of the day because there were so many people setup between the ocean and the dunes. We like using the beach mostly in the evenings, so it wasn't a huge impact for us as it thinned out around then. But if you're the type who likes to be out there during peak times, you may want to consider another location with a different beach access. Also the hosts were attentive and had everything we needed already on the property, so we didn't really need to contact them for anything.
