Great stay minor inconveniences

The place was beautiful, and it was just as it was described. The beach was right across the street, and our host quickly answered any questions. However, some inconveniences should be fixed for a perfect stay. First, the check-in was at 5 pm, and check-out was at 9 am. We were shocked at the time since 9 am is very early for the last morning, and most places usually allow the guests to check out at 11 am, but we assumed it was to give the cleaning crew enough time, which 5 pm was also the latest check-in time we've ever received. Nonetheless, we planned our drive to arrive a couple of hours before 5 pm; however, by 10:30 am, we received a message saying the place was ready to be checked in. Therefore, the times should be adjusted to begin and end the vacation more accommodatingly. Secondly, there were no spices available in the kitchen, not even salt or pepper, so if you plan on cooking anything, bring your own, or you'll have to run to the store. We didn't expect a treasure trove of spices, but at least the basics like salt, pepper, and oil. Third, we had a cockroach and a spider on our first night, and there were tiny black bugs, which can be assumed were ants, that would come out if any food or drinks were left out overnight.

Not what you would expect for the price

Let's start with the positive. Great floor plan, community pool and tennis courts are in excellent shape, right across the street from public beach access, and a central location for activities and dining. Massive negatives unfortunately. The kitchen was completely inadequate if you plan on cooking. Only 6 drinking glasses for home designate for 12, no cutting board, 2 trash bags for 5 nights, 1 dish towel, 1 small bottle (size of hotel shampoo) of dish soap for 5 nights. Overall maintenance not what you would expect from a million dollar home – 2 bedroom ceilings with cracks and water spots, upstairs master closet full of holes where wire shelving once was installed, upstairs master balcony door could not be unlocked, upstairs balcony table was rusted to the point of falling apart, and the dryer would not dry more than a few pieces of clothing at a time.

Destin stay for newlywed’s

The property was beautiful and perfect for for our family only with the house was that the dryer didn’t work even after someone came out to service it. And if you are an minority be careful some people aren’t polite happy about you being there the security guy thought my brother was lying about staying in the neighborhood even after he gave him the address and was taking pictures of him and some other black kids but overall the trip was great

The property location is fantastic...but that’s all...

We spend 5 days and is normally our family vacation, so we have kids and love to go and explore the places, we are very active, we took our kayaks, bikes, paddle board, all the toys we carry on the truck, the first night the neighborhood watch knock on the door at 9 pm and tell us to take the kayaks from the truck because one stupid rule...that’s okay...so we took the kayaks out and put in front of the garage behind the cars, second day he came again and gave us a warning, the kayaks could not be on the drive way, need to be out of site, another rule, we couldn’t use the garage because was locked by the owner storage his personal stuff, the third day, he knocked again, now the bikes (we have 6 bikes with us and one of the tires was visible from the street), and on the last night because of the early check out we have to load the kayaks back on the truck, 9 pm he came again. So if you have kids in your party that’s not a very friendly neighborhood. The house is old and can use some renovation, on the kitchen the dishwasher was walking by herself once you turn on, bathrooms are old. We expected a better cleaning specially because the previous rental wrote on the review and i send a note to the property to pay attention to the cleaning on this time of pandemic, and I don’t think it help , on top of the table the light was full of spider webs, on the hall, front entrance on the celling, hair on the floor and a lot of sand on the bathrooms. But the location was perfect. I always use this app to rent houses in Destin, never have a problem they have wonderful properties, but this time I do not recommend the Yellow bird house if you have kids and toys with you....neighborhood guys are not friendly at all and they are determined to ruin your vacation....

The beach was amazing

The house is cute but needs a power wash and have the bushes cut back a bit. There was hair in a lot of places, there was dust and cobwebs on light fixtures. There was suppose to be intense cleaning due to COVID-19 but I don’t feel like the cleaning fee is being used according. I was not pleased with the fact that the tv didn’t work in the master bedroom. Overall my family and I enjoyed our trip but the house for the money charged could have been much cleaner, newer appliances, and bigger TVs in the bedroom. Will be returning to Destin just not to stay in the Yellow house.

Not for us

The check in and check out time is not great. We felt the walk to the beach and pool was longer than listed. The pool was small compared to neighborhood. We had to call management company several times because the fro t door either wouldn’t open or lock. The dishwasher Was not secure in the cabinet. The refrigerator would not cool even on the lowest setting. When reported I didn’t feel Like I was a priority. They “could not be in the house at the same time as us because of Covid” seemed to convenient of an excuse. For the price not really what we are used to or expected
