Fun trip

Our family enjoyed the property. Only negative is parking. The two spots in front of house were occupied almost entire time we were there.

Unforgettable trip!

The house was amazing! Location to Camp Watercolor, Seaside and Beach club were perfect. Never even had to use strollers. Beautiful well-maintained house. We ended up cooking at home for several meals and would have benefited from some basic condiments but otherwise, well-stocked utensil and cooking dishware.

Nice house but needs some maintenance. HOA is a problem.

Overall good stay despite tropical storm Fred. House was generally very nice but does need some cosmetic maintenance. Watercolor HOA issues a citation for a golf cart not completely between the white lines in a totally empty parking garage. Highway robbery at $100....It would have been nice to get a heads up from rental agent.

Fourth Awesome Year

We've been staying at this property for four consecutive years. We had 10 teenagers with us and not once did the property feel small or overcrowded. The outside porches (with TVs), the upstairs family room, and the carriage house means that no one is underfoot. The house is well located close to the beach, Watercolor Beach Club, the community pool, and Publix. The 6-seater golf cart and bicycles also make the stay fun for teenagers who get to enjoy their 'freedom'. A wonderful property, great support from Sanders Beach Rentals and we'll be back for year 5!

Fantastic property. Set up perfectly for our group of 6 Best buds from high school. Highly recommend the house and wish we could’ve stayed longer! One small recommendation would be to update a few of the TVs...but overall a wonderful stay.

Great house

Everything was as described on the website. Beautiful house, spacious and fully equipped kitchen which we needed since we ate all our meals at the house! The only negative is the open trellis area behind the house, which serves as a carport, will only hold one car or small SUV. There is, however, shared parking in front of the house.

Home is fantastic!

Home is fantastic and everything it’s supposed to be. Huge issue checking in. We never received our email with check in process from the management company. We arrived at midnight with 4 kids and called the number on this site, only to be told there is nothing they can do, and to look for a hotel. But.....they only see a reservation for one, so they’ll only cover 1 person staying in a hotel. Brad, the worst customer service rep in the history of customer service, read to me the process for contacting a attorney, and proceeded to talk over myself and my husband. Needless to say, the call did not go well. He was uncaring and inconsiderate to our situation, and took no interest in helping us, saying he has no responsibility and that they are only a booking site - this was “Home Away”. We love this house and will directly book with their management company instead of using VRBO. This app is going to be deleted once the trip is over. Highly recommend this house, just make sure the management company sends you your necessary information before arrival, don’t go by the VRBO email that they send that says “Here is access to your keys”....there was no access.

Amazing holiday home!

My family and I stayed at this property for two weeks this summer and had seven teenage friends join our family of four. It was the best home we have rented at Watercolor. It is conveniently located between Publix and the Watercolor Beach Club and close to the Watercolor Camp. The big golf cart was a Godsend, with the teenagers able to get around as they needed and the little ones used the property's bicycles. The house has numerous seating areas so we never felt cramped and the interior was beautifully decorated. All in all, this property gets a five star rating and we will be back!

The property was magnificent!

We had a full house that included 4 babies/toddlers. There was adequate space to spread out with 2 living areas inside PLUS 2 large screened porches. The kitchen was top of the line! My adult children Prepared the evening meals and enjoyed the whole space...especially the outdoor fireplaces with flat screen TV (to watch final 4 game) the golf cart was icing on a very good cake and we could not have enjoyed the pools/beach without it. Loved it! loved the management team! Loved the community! We will be back
