      Wonderful!!!

      Left on 07/19/2012 for a stay in June 2012

      Good view of the water from the second and third floor balconies. Very short walk to the beach, pool only one house away--everything was as presented on the webpage for this house. The house was clean when we arrived, everything worked without a problem and check-in was very easy! In a previous review someone had mention about it being a private beach to the left of the entrance to the beach. One evening a guy did put up signs and made people leave from that area, this only happened one day of the entire week. We always went to the right as we entered the beach. Will caution everyone that there is a small drop off as you go into the water. The drop off is about 1 to 1 2/2 feet and goes along the edge of the beach for 5 to 10 feet. It's not a problem unless you don't know it is there, which is what happen to one person in our group--he went to catch a frisbee and didn't know it was there, hurt his knee and was on crutches for the entire week. We had a wonderful week and when we go back to the Destin area would rent the house again!!

      Relaxing week

      Left on 07/05/2012 for a stay in June 2012

      The house was the perfect size for our group. The week started out with Tropical Storm Debby but by Monday afternoon that passed and the week was beautiful. The house was close to the beach which was nice for us. The location to restaurants was great.

      An Excellent value - and fun too!

      Left on 06/28/2012 for a stay in June 2012

      Our extended family rents a home on the coast once a year. This was our first time staying on the Gulf and with Southern Vacations Rentals. The home was an excellently value, equipped with everything you might need for a family of six or more. We were blown away by the value, cleanliness and amenities afforded to us. Also, the location was simply outstanding. Not only was the home only a short distance to the one of the most beautiful beaches you could imagine, but it was close to food and convenience stores and two major cities. I would highly recommend the property to anyone looking for a quality, relaxing stay on the Gulf.

      A beautiful view from the proch.

      We love to relax on 30a.

      Left on 04/11/2012 for a stay in March 2012

      we had a great time. The bottom floor is nice and open so everyone can gather in the same room. The balconies were great and the loft area gave our 4 teens their own space and their own balcony as well. The house and kitchen were well equipped. We loved riding bikes on 30a and sampling the local restaurants. Great Vacation! The one negative-watch out for the legs of the bar stools. They flare out at the bottom and are easy to stub your toes on.

      Stone Family Reunion

      Left on 07/07/2011 for a stay in June 2011

      We liked staying at the Full abalone for our annual Family trip to the Beach. There was a lot of room, the beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms clean(not enough towels).The house however had a few problems. The jacuzzi in the master bath didn't work, the refrigerator didn't work very well nothing was cold and ice didn't make and popsicles melted. The wicker sofa and chair in the living room were very uncomfortable.The cushions were very thin and not made for the furniture. The kitchen floor was very dirty our feet were black from just walking round putting up groceries the first day.

      Another problem was the not Southern Resorts' fault or the house's. The First full day our family was on the beach the president of the home owners association (from the houses on the beach directly across the street our house) came and told us to get off their beach and if we didn't we would be forcibly removed. He said the part of the beach we were on was private property. We were only about 200 feet to the left of the public access steps and close to the water. In the 40 plus years I have been coming to the beaches in this area I have never been told to get off the beach. Doesn't say much for Florida tourism. There were Private Property, stay to the waters edge signs all up and down the beach. We felt very unwelcome. We supported Florida beaches during the oil spill and came here anyway last year and had a great time. Next year we might go some where else I hate it because The Beaches of South Walton and 30a are my favorite places in the world.

      Very Relaxing

      Full abalone is a great house, close to the beach, and in a nice area of Santa Rosa Beach.

      Our vacation was great

      Left on 04/06/2011 for a stay in April 2011

      Everything was great, the Full abalone was a very clean, beautiful home, with everything we needed plus very close to the pool and ocean. The only problem we had was with the internet, it went down a few times and the wireless was slow but not enough to put a damper on our vacation.

      Wonderful Week

      Left on 06/11/2010 for a stay in May 2010

      We enjoyed a wonderful, relaxing week at the beach with our adult children. The weather was great, the house was perfect for us to enjoy spending time together playing games, cooking & just hanging out. The pool was nice and access to the beach just a short walk. Thank you.

      Great home for a mom's getaway

      Left on 05/14/2010 for a stay in May 2010

      We rented Full Abalone for a long weekend getaway for 9 moms who needed a break. We were all pleased with the home's location, amenities, decor, etc. The weather did not cooperate, but we had a great time enjoying meals at the large table, reading on the many porches, and chatting in the tower room. There was plenty of room for us, and many commented how great the open floor plan on the bottom floor was for accomodating a larger group. The walk to the beach is very short and easy. We will definitely rent this house again for a similar sized group.

      Relaxing home away from home.

      Left on 04/07/2010 for a stay in March 2010

      We stayed in Full Abalone for a week, and it was so relaxing! This adorable home had everything you needed for a great time. The beach was steps away and absolutely gorgeous. The cute shops were within walking distance, and there were great paths for biking and running! Overall it was an amazing week.

      It was over too soon!

      Left on 09/30/2009 for a stay in September 2009

      We came into Santa Rosa Beach for a VERY quick weekend. We attended the wedding of a good friend. Unfortunately we did not have a lot of time to enjoy the beach or pool. But the rental process was quick and easy. The home was beautiful and just as we expected from the photos. We were within minutes from the wedding party. We will definitely be back when we can stay longer and have some quality beach time!

      Home away from home

      Left on 08/21/2009 for a stay in August 2009

      My sisters and our families rented the pink cottage at Full Abalone on Santa Rosa beach, and all ten of us give the property two thumbs up! From the moment our feet landed on the welcome mat our three families felt at home in your spacious, family-friendly townhouse. The open floorplan on the main level made day to day activities much simpler with such a crowd. The kids awoke every day in a race to the front windows to see what color flag was flying at the beach. Our young children especially loved the bunkroom and 3rd floor crow's nest "for their own privacy". The rest of us big kids were equally as pleased with our rooms and private balconies, especially when we needed to escape the family chaos for a few quiet moments to be alone with the sky and sea. We were blessed with sunny skies, friendly neighbors, great fishing, and mild surf for the entire week. The large front porch, outdoor shower, and hardwood floors made cleaning off after a day at the beach a breeze. We all enjoyed that the pool was only a house away and had an outdoor shower and bathrooms as well. Our only problem was having to eventually leave (plus the rascally raccoons who pillaged the trash every night, but even those little varmints were pretty tidy!).

      Remarkable Family Vacation

      Left on 10/28/2008 for a stay in August 2008

      My family had last taken a family vacation in 2002 so when our extended family (my family, my brother's family, and my parents) agreed to hit the beach in August 2008 I started the search immediately. All I had to work with was somewhere on the Gulf coast of Florida. After a little searching, I had settled on a couple of properties and shortly thereafter I sent Southern Resorts a depost on the Full Abalone resience.

      As the vacation planner, I am not one for loosy-goosy operations as the full pressure of the fun and sun vacation was resting soley on my shoulders. I could not have been happier with the result.

      We arrive on time at the residence (how can you miss a three story pink house?), entered a pin code into the front door handle, and entered the residence.

      The house worked perfectly, slept easily all 10 of my family members in four different rooms, had cble TV, wifi internet access, all the amenities of home with one exception; a beautifully white sand beach across the street.

      Not only did we enjoy beach access, there was a private pool two houses up the Rue de Soleil, a lake for fishing, wonderful restauranst less than 10 miles away, and excellant family conversations we had all along the way.

      Writers note: I don't work for Southern Resorts or have a vested interest in your vacation plans but if your like me (a perfectionist, detail driven, family planner, type A sort, entrust your plans to Southern Resorts. They did not fail me in any area of this vacation. My 10 year-old still ensists this frigid late October day that she wants to go back to the pink house next year. BTW, the Full Abalone house is only the backdrop...you and your family will write the story...perhaps with you feet in the water and toes in the sand.) You can thank me later.

      Spacious, private, and great views.

      Left on 10/23/2008 for a stay in October 2008

      This house was beautiful, and was so close to a private pool, Bay, and pure white beach sand. It was convenient for us as we walked to the wedding we were there for which was right on the beach. Great views, and great times. Thanks, -Mike.
