White Sands #463

Overall great vacation! Nice, clean townhouse. We had a water leak in the master bath and the a/c drain clogged and caused a leak. We called the reality and the repairs were made in a timely manner.

i have stayed with my family at White Sands for the past 5 years. we've stayed in several different rentals. all we're in good clean shape. however the unit we staying in this year experienced a really substantial leak at the doors leading to the deck when it rained. notified rental office. there is evidence that this leak has been evidently an ongoing issue and owners really need to pay attention to the leak before it really gets out of hand. we had to put pots under 3 leaks in the ceiling to catch the rain water coming in at the deck doors.

Manager's Response

The property was amazing with an incredible location and the property management team was very professional and responsive. We would definitely book again and recommend.

Lovely

After coming to Pensacola Beach for the past 30 years this is the first time and hopefully the last time we ever encountered this...... You never know who is renting the unit next to yours. We have stayed at White Sands for the past 3 years and have enjoyed getting to know our neighbors. This time however was a little different the unit a couple down from ours is rented out through VRBO well VRBO rented to a fraternity needless to say our stay wasn't what we had expected it to be. We addressed this to Paradise Beach as did the other units and they addressed it with the Homeowner Association. Pensacola Beach is family geared and beautiful lets keep it that way!

2016 is the 10th year my family has gone to Pensacola Beach for Thanksgiving. We have stayed in multiple townhomes at White Sands and worked with many different property management companies. Working with Paradise Beach Homes, especially Russell, was far and above the best experience I have ever had with a Property Mangement Company!! The home was perfect and Russel went out of his way to make sure our holiday in this beautiful setting was worry free. Paradise Beach Homes will be my "go to" company for all my future rental needs on Pensacola Beach!! Thank you!!

We had a great time with family. The weather was perfect for the time we were there. The facility was satisfactory. Only had a few issues through the week. The only tub doesn't drain well, we had some roaches on one day, the upstairs hallway carpet was pretty stained and the patio unbrella doesn't work. The place met our needs and it was right on the beach which was a priority.

We were able to check in early because the unit was ready. The unit that we picked to stay in was described different in the add as far as the bedrooms were set up. The sleeping arrangements were a little difficult because of that. The unit wasn't as clean as it should have been my 3 yr old found an open knife between the couch cushions. The location on the beach was great, as far as being close to anything fun to do for kids that ranged between 3 to 21 there wasn't much at all to do for the younger ones. I would stay again and I didn't complain. My son found the knife on day 6 and we had already been there the length of our stay. I didnt contact the office because I figured they would do anything.

I loved the location of the town home! It was nice to walk off the porch on to the beach. The home was spacious and had everything we needed. The only thing I would suggest is updating the shower heads and caddies in all the bathrooms, have the carpets cleaned or replaced, and have a basic vacuum cleaner left on site for guest.

Wonderful

I am a "local" and we have had a Thanksgiving family reunion at Pensacola Beach for the past 8 years. We have stayed in many of the White Sands townhouses and this unit is one of the best!! Clean, comfortable, well supplied and you can't beat the view!! The management company was flexible with our arrival and departure. Will definitely stay here again!

Our family has stayed on the island several times over the years. This property was clean and well maintained. The views and accessibility were spectacular! Everyone slept comfortably and had plenty of space. Made for a great family holiday weekend!

We had a great time at the beach. The house was large enough for the seven of us without getting in each other's way. The furnishings were in good shape and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils, dishes and cookware. The downside included a car parked in the garage taking up the parking space, a broken patio umbrella, master bedroom TV didn't work and the wi-if was off till we found the box and turned it on. We called the rental agency about the broken TV in the master but they didn't get it repaired.

We rent a place at Pensacola Beach every year - usually a house, but this time a townhouse. I have never stayed anywhere that did not a TV in every room. It was not listed on the description either way,but I didn't notice. I just assumed for that much money there would not be two bedrooms without TVs. Also, the double garage did not hold two cars because the owner's car was parked inside. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay. Needs to update to a gas grill like all the neighbors.

We had a great time and everything was outstanding.. We will be back

We were breathless when we saw the Townhomes interior, roominess, its pristine condition, the three car garage and a view of the Gulf one would only dream of. You can be assured that we will return soon.
Its also walking distance to the best food on the island, "Peg Leg Pete's"

Spacious unit for our family. Beautiful views. Living room furniture was wicker and not comfortable for lounging.

Rented this unit for a long weekend with some family members. Because of the off-season we got a "stay 4 nights pay for 3" discount. Upon arrival I knew why it was discounted. This place is a basic, no frills, townhouse, with no decoration, bare walls, cheap wicker furniture and all white threadbare, bedding that reminds one of a hospital room. Kitchen barely furnished with minimum items. Pots and pans crusted with burnt-on food. Bedspreads and pillows etc. in sore need of replacement. Only two TV's in unit, one in living room and one in master bedroom, other bedrooms completely void of anything but bed and nightstand. Unlike all townhouses in bldgs 1, 3 & 4 there is no elevator and stairs are many and steep, this unit NOT for elderly or infirmed. Bathtub drains are extremely SLOW to drain, carpeting throughout is filthy and needs immediate replacing. And despite the excessive cleaning fee that is charged, the floors were disgustingly sticky with grime and dirt, and bare feet were BLACK after walking on floors within 5 mins. This nastiness prevented us from allowing my year-old grandaughter to crawl around. These floors are past mopping and need a deep cleaning preasure washer. We had to wash all the utensils, glasses and dishes ourselves upon arrival as they were clearly unwashed and put away dirty by previous renters. There was leftover trash under every single bed and piece of furniture which my grandaughter kept discovering. One of only 2 chaise lounge chairs on deck was broken. Despite all this the view is beautiful. But you are paying strictly for the convenience of being located directly on the beach not for nicely decorated, clean, modern accommodations. This townhouse needs a major overhaul and a different cleaning service that actually CLEANS, not just change sheets on beds and replace towels. I will rent a different unit in the future.

This was our first time staying at White Sands #463. The previous 2 years we stayed at White Sands #417. So the location was great. Unit was clean and plenty big enough for our family. The unit is a bit more dated than where we usually stay and has no elevator unlike #417. The entire purpose of the trip was to be at the beach. Overall we were satisfied with our stay at White Sands #463 and would recommend to family and friends.
