I have used Russel Vacation Rentals a few times in this area and have always had an amazing experience with them. The home is great, clean, and modern, with an amazing view of the bay on a golf course. I cant wait to go back!

We loved It! It was a beautiful, spacious, very clean Condo, we could not have asked for anything better! It had all the comforts of home and more! We loved Miramar Beach and the SandDestin Resort. The staff is beyond friendly, professional, helpful and happy. This was our 5th years staying at the resort and every year we say the golf cart makes the trip. With that said, We will defintely be back! The Property sits on a small lake and the fish, ducks and turtles were well fed! The whole experience was awesome!!!!!!!

Beautiful condo! We will be back! We visited Sandestin this past October. This condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. All the essential kitchen appliances and tools were available. The condo has a view that overlooks the fairway and the bay and is steps away from the swimming pool and fishing. The accessibility to a golf cart is a fantastic amenity. We were able to tour the entire resort without getting in our car. The golf cart is also great for easy underground access to the beach and close parking at Baytown Wharf where you will find retail shopping, grocery shopping, dining and entertainment all on resort property. Booking was easy and quick responses were received from management. We definitely recommend this condo whether going as a couple or with an entire family and are making plans for a return visit!

Loved this house. It was just minutes from Sea Side and centrally located to everything on 30A including right next to the bike path but back in a quite area as well, couldn't beat it. On top of that it had great beach access and dune lake access. Steamboat grill was just around the corner as well as the free shuttle pick up and drop off. My family loved the bunk room and community pool and the updated kitchen. Can't wait until our visit next year.

Wonderful house and wonderful, communicative host, exactly as described in the listing, extremely neat and well maintained. Clean, white bed and white linens, kitchen stocked with the basic kitchen tools, and a nice big gas grill out back. We loved the porch and the ability to ride bikes toward Rosemary Beach in one direction and Seaside in the other. The beach access is walkable and gorgeous and we enjoyed watching the sunsets almost every day. Grocery stores are 10 minutes away driving. We would highly recommend.

Beautifully furnished unit that is well maintained and stocked. Check in and out was very easy. Location between Alys beach and Seaside. Quiet neighborhood. Nice pool. Access to beach is not direct and you would have to walk less than a quarter mile without beach parking. However, this was not a major issue for us since we did not plan to only hang out at th beach and spent the majority of our time hopping from beach town centers. We would definitely stay here again!

My husband and I stayed in this lovely spacious condo for 4 nights in September. It has a beautiful view from both the living area and the master bedroom. We had morning coffee on the deck and watched the sunrise over the bay. Its in a great location right on the golf course and is very quiet and relaxing. We strolled on the beautifully kept grounds, went shopping nearby, and hit the beach all conveniently close by. This condo is beautifully decorated and has everything you will need to make your stay super comfortable, we highly recommend it!

Perfection!! Exactly what you see in the pics! We've definitely found our favorite spot to vacation, and this is it! I cannot wait to go back, and this is certainly where we will stay for all of our beach trips. The interior is just like what you see in the pictures, and it was so quick and easy to get to the beach. This spot is so beautiful and amazing! We'll be booking again soon!

Very charming, accommodating and relaxing!! Our family had the most wonderful stay this past week! The Stafford felt like home! Not to mention, the location was close to everything we love and we have hopes of returning this same time next year! (My kids were super excited about the games in the pantry!-such a great added touch)

We've been to the beach for years and stayed at several different places. This was the cleanest, best located, and all around nicest place we've ever stayed at. To sum it up, it felt like home. The property managers were a breeze to deal with and get everything set up and the trip was flawless, couldn't have asked for better. I can't recommend Russel Vacation Rentals enough and will definitely be staying with them again in the future.

Sea Esta was absolutely GORGEOUS! Just like it looks online, but maybe even better. The beds were so comfy. The beach was absolutely beautiful. It is a bit of a walk, but not too bad at all. We piled everything into a wagon and it made the beach walk more do-able. We can't wait to come back! Thank you for being a fabulous host. The house was GORGEOUS! The beach was GORGEOUS! We had a fabulous vacation and hated to leave. And thank you Cindy for answering all of my questions before we went. You were a pleasure to deal with.

You will feel in vacation the second you step in the hallway. Every room is decorated with taste and creativity, using seaside themes. The condo is well maintained with easy access to everything. The communication with Maria at Russell Vacations was very clear and timely . We loved the keyless entry to the condo and the pools. Highly recommend.

Over the years, we've stayed in many town-homes and houses on 30a, but The "Sea Suite" comes out on top. The location is perfect; Seacrest Beach is a quaint and quiet community even in the height of summer, and the beach itself could not have been more beautiful. For most of our days here, we had clear, calm water and beautiful skies, enjoyed from the beach as well as from our own personal balcony and patio. The town-home itself is very private; you don't have to interact with your neighbors if you choose not to. And the interior is spectacular! Its colors and furniture induce a calming and tranquil effect, perfect for the beachy surroundings. The house is perfectly appointed with everything you could want from the fully-stocked kitchen to the beautiful bathrooms. And the dining room and living room provided us with perfect spots for hours of leisure. "Sea Suite" is a perfect place to spend a week, or even a month, and I suggest that everyone who wants a relaxing and rejuvenating vacation opt to stay at this brand new property. We will be back!

My wife and I were looking for a place, to go, for a relaxing "get away" week. This location was recommended by a family member. It absolutely did not disappoint. The condo was very clean and organized. We felt "at home" and relaxed as soon as we walked in the door. The configuration of the condo is perfect for a family or for two couples, for example. This condo is on the second floor of the two story complex. The location was awesome. It overlooks a fairway and the harbor, with yachts as a backdrop. Just bring, with you, the recommended items and you're good to go. Side note, if you like to make eggs for breakfast, you might want to add a non stick pan to the list. Also, if you're a golfer, bring your clubs. I believe that three of the four courses on the resort are public. The Sandestin Resort area is just what we expected and more. The area is very clean and safe. What you would expect of a golf community. Everyone that we crossed paths with were very friendly and welcoming. The use of the new golf cart, that comes with the condo is an awesome touch. Unless you really want to leave the area, you can park your vehicle and use the golf cart as transportation to everything you need. -- golf courses, grocery store, numerous restaurants, the beach, clothes shopping, the boat docks and general sight seeing are all a few minutes golf cart drive away. We even drove it through the drive up at Starbucks. If you do desire to go somewhere to dine or shop, other than what is located within golf cart use. Everything you can think of, including a large outlet mall, are just a few minutes drive in the car. My overall rating of the condo and area is Excellent. The customer service and satisfaction rating for Russell Vacation Rentals is also Excellent. Thank you, to the owners, for sharing your beautiful place.
