Santa Rosa Dunes #615

Our family had a very enjoyable visit to Pensacola Beach. The condo location on the bay was great but the condo needs some repairs and cleaning. Specifically the condo had the following problems:
1. Sliding glass door extremely hard to open, 2. the front door had someone try to prie the front door open, 3. The interior floors were dirty, bad dirty!!

Family trip for Spring Break including 2 teens and 2 seniors. We had a very nice experience and enjoyed this condo very much. Appreciated having a bedroom and bath on the main level for the grandparents. Everything was clean and in good working order. Beds comfy. Upstairs master shower is noisy. Several electrical outlets are very loose. Would have liked some extra blankets available. Wish there was a keurig. Overall very nice.

Very nice place to stay. Larger 3 bedroom, 3 full bath with beautiful views. Huge pool in the complex and very close to the beach. Kitchen has everything you will need. Walking distance to a convenience store and restaurant.

Nice and quiet and neighbors are friendly. We were there in February/March of 2019. Weather was not the best, but property and location was ideal.

Manager's Response

We had a wonderful time and the condo was everything that we hoped it would be. The view of the water from the deck is gorgeous and we enjoyed having drinks and meals out there. The rooms are nicely furnished and the beds are comfortable. The many windows (including skylights in two of the bathrooms) provided a lot of natural light. The kitchen is furnished with everything that you could possibly need for cooking, and if you don’t want to cook the condo is a stones throw away from Peg Leg’s, a popular restaurant and bar on the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and hope to stay there again next year.

We chose this unit because it had a fishing pier and was a very close walk to fish and it was close to the beach and pool for the children. It was great! We sat on the balcony playing guitar and talking about days gone by...the 3 bathrooms made it easy for everyone to get ready to go out for the birthday dinner! And plenty of parking! Awesome 60 th birthday fishing weekend!

This unit has the best of everything. Unit sits on the shallow sound, has an Olympic size pool, across the street from the beach is next door to Tom Thumb store and our favorite restaurant, Peg Legs. Paradise Rentals is the way to go, lots of choices and very easy to work with.

I love staying here. Have rented here at least 4 times in the past. When I was working full time I could afford to stay. I don’t think there is a fixed income price for people on social security. But if there was, I’d stay again. Blessings!

This was about the 3rd or 4th time we stayed in this co do. The sunsets are amazing here! The Bay/Sound is peaceful and beautiful. The condo was clean and comfortable with plenty of parking. It is within walking distances from dining and a convenience store. My family loves to fish from the dock. As long as I can afford to go, I will stay at this condo. Did I mention the pool is absolutely beautiful!

Great location, quiet, comfortable condo, beaches on the bay and gulf, nearby fishing pier, pool on property, complete supply of kitchen utensils, bedding and toiletries, outside grill needed cleaning, slow bathtub drain on first floor, great response on a/c pump replacement.

Unit was clean on arrival and equipped with hotel-sized soaps/shampoos, kitchen soaps and basic paper products to get started. View is fantastic, looking across the intercoastal at Gulf Breeze. Lovely large bedrooms with large closets.
Appliances are high-end, including washer and dryer. Ample towels, dishes and glassware for the 8 folks the unit can accommodate. (Sofa bed in living room)
Dining table is comfortable for 8. Balcony is right on the water, and has a dining table as well as lounge chairs. TV (Mediacom) in Living room and each bedroom. Wireless internet included. End unit has side views of the water as well as the front view. Excellent location close to great restaurants and 5 minute walk to the gulf beaches across the street.

Had the kids and grandkids up for a visit. Everyone enjoyed the views of the sound, the large pool and the gulf beach.

Would rent again! Had a great time! Rental company very helpful and responsive! Great bang for the bucks!

Overall super. Internet connection was intermittent all week of our stay. After calling on Monday and Wednesday, a technician finally came out and replaced a cable on Friday which we had already bypassed and found to not correct the problem. So basically no reliable internet connection our entire stay. Drains in the tubs are very slow to drain. You stand in water while you shower. Door locks on bedrooms and baths are very difficult to manipulate and especially on the front door. You can not lock or unlock the deadbolt with the key.
But the locale is perfect and the Management Company is marvelous. The patio door was much easier to open than in past years. We will be back again next year for the fourth time. Hoefully the internet service, locks, and drains will be fixed.

The condo we rented was exactly like the pictures depicted. We were very pleased with the overall vacation rental experience. The Santa Rosa Dunes are within walking distance of the beach. There is a convenient store and our favorite restaurant Peg Leg Pete's which are all within walking distance. The only hiccup we had was that someone had stolen the gas container for the gas grill and Paradise Beach Homes replaced it immediately. I would give our overall experience 5 stars.

This is our second visit to Santa Rosa Dunes and we had such a great stay. The unit was large enough for all six of us. It was well appointed and had all of the utensils and equipped like our own home. This Bay front unit is fresh with good sunlight. The pool is the largest on the island, we enjoyed it a lot.

It worked out very well for what we needed. Great deal overall. Glad i went with you guys.

Couldn't be better as far as locale, ammenities, and service from Rental Agency.

Wonderful! Great location. Had something for everyone in family.

We have stayed many places in the past years.Must say we enjoyed this one the best so far .The beds are more comfortable then ours at home witch is hard to find in a rental.we are all ready making plans to return next year. Thank you troy Von Alven

Awesome place - perfect location and very well appointed. All bedrooms were spacious and had their own bathrooms. Nice amenities on site as well (huge, clean pool). Highly recommend for those on a medium end budget. We'd rent the unit again for sure. Place could have been cleaned with a little more detail prior to our arrival (a little dusty and some food left from prior guest).

We were able to get in the condo a bit early thanks to the management company. The condo was clean and bright and view of the sound was awesome, especially at sunset. I was a tad disappointed the pool was not open most of our time there. That was not the fault of owner or Paradise Homes. Thank You for allowing us to rent this condo!

This condo is well appointed. Three bedrooms, three baths are updated, kitchen and appliances are functional and high quality. A lovely view of the Sound. The Gulf and a lovely beach are right across the street. Can walk for miles. The National Park is 1 miles from the condo. This end unit is private and and it is in a quiet area. One of the best restaurants on the island - Peg Leg Petes and a convenience store are next door. The management company is so pleasant and helpful. A fantastic vacation made better! Thank you.

Very nice roomy townhouse! Great location would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay and relax. Very quiet location but close to everything! Trolley stop at the end of the drive. Very clean and well stocked. Yet not so sterile you're afraid to settle in. Balcony is perfect for morning coffee. Dolphins visited us while on the pier and we all enjoyed our attempts at fishing. Fort Pickens is a must to visit (pay once and enter for 7 days). Beaches are top notch. Basically if you're looking for luxury, this is not your place. If you prefer a place to be comfortable, feel safe, and relax this is it! We've been to Pensacola many, many times and will definitely consider this property again.

Wonderful experience. Will try and reserve this unit again next year. Only suggestions I have are to replace the doorknob sets on the bathrooms and front door. Bathrooms hard to lock. Seldom able to lock the deadbolt on the front door from outside. Was afraid key might snap. Was able to lock it when I checked out. Very difficult to operate. Also, the patio door is extremely difficult to open. Needs some attention. Otherwise this home was perfect.

ALL VERY GOOD HAVING BEEN IN THIS CONDO FOR MANY YEARS. WE FELT THAT THE BALCONY FURNITURE WAS VERY DRAB NOW AND SOME OF THE VENT COVERS IN THE BATHROOMS WERE OF THE WALL.WE LOVE THE LOCATION AND THE CARE OF THE PARADISE STAFF.

This condo was wonderful - everything you need and then some. 3 roomy bedrooms, the dock for fishing and stargazing, steps to the gorgeous gulf. The managing company is over by Paradise Inn and they were very friendly and helpful. Great location. Quiet neighborhood.

had a great time!!

Loved this condo from the minute we walked in the door. This unit has bay views from every window, stunning view of the bridge to Gulf Breeze, you can even see the Gulf. The condo is in great shape and the management was continually maintaining the property during our stay. Spacious rooms, well stocked kitchen. Paradise Beach Management were friendly and very responsive to any issues, however slight. A nice touch was the welcome beach bag stocked with goodies, at check-in. This unit is on the end of the development, the grassy area is a nice buffer to the neighborhood next door, the neighbors have been pleasant. We stayed here in off-season and it was very quiet and private. The condo is well equipped with enough electronics , internet is quick and reliable. Did I mention the views? The dock is a great place to watch the sunsets.

We love the unit that we consistently stay in. Feels like a second home to our family.

Great family get away with wonderful accommodations and perfect customer service.

We had a wonderful visit. Our rental is ideally located. My only complaint is the same as last year's ( we stayed in this same unit) ,the mattresses are in poor condition and so is the couch. The view is beautiful, we love the dock and being on the bay. We would like to return next year but our backs need new mattresses and a couch that doesn't sink in the middle. And one more thing ... the pump that empties the AC is REALLY loud. You can hear it upstairs. Love the pool area and love being able to bring my maltipoo as the dog park is just down the beach road.thanks for such a relaxing vacation.

Very Good we love the location and the property. We hope to come again.?
We also like the overall quietness, the wild life and the care taken over the whole SANTA ROSA COMPLEX.

It was a glorious Florida White Christmas with 4 of my 5 children coming for Christmas Dinner. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking a turkey, ham and dressing along with all the trimmings. I was pleasantly surprised. We had 18 for dinner. Its was a little cramped but turned out to be a close family get together that my children will never forget. There are a lot of previous memories at Santa Rosa Dunes. My family had a time to reflect and remember all the good times as we were previous owners of a unit in this project. The views are breath taking. I truly believe this is the closest to heaven you can get. We extended our stay another week even though it was one of the coldest weeks we have had in a long time. The rental company was excellent. The staff was so helpful with great attitudes.
