Ashore Thing

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There are so many things that are wonderful about this property (this is our 6th year to stay for our family vacation) but there are a few things that need to be addressed.The WiFi is terrible. It is hard to watch TV (constant buffering), dropped phone calls, hard to send emails/texts, etc. Outside water hydrants did not work so unable to clean sand off of items taken to beach. Also, the outside shower had hot water only so unsafe from child standpoint.The outside grill is inoperable and needs to be replaced.House seems to be getting a little “tired” and needs some love.

Views for Miles of the Gulf!

Amazing views and spacious property. All sleeping spaces were well defined and comfortable except sleeper sofa would have been an awkward space for an adult to sleep. Children would have been fine. The back deck was incredible and such a close walk to the beach ! Bathrooms were clean but not sparkling and we encountered some bugs in the house. That being said, they showed up to spray after we arrived and we did not want the interior sprayed with small children so they sprayed the outside. Overall, a really great spot for a beach stay. The house has everything you would need! Laundry room so convenient to outside shower !!

Wonderful Vacation time from a Family from Austin, Texas

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Ashore Thing was fantastic. We rented the house for 2 weeks and were delighted over the location and the house. The house is spacious, clean and modern. The view of the gulf from the house is spectacular and the best attribute of the house. We loved getting the bikes, chairs and umbrellas as part of our rental. I would recommend the owner add area rugs to dining room, bedrooms and side seating area. I would also recommend they close in the outdoor shower for privacy. We wanted to bring our little dog down with us and offered a sizable deposit and additional rent however the owner declined. We would likely come back year after year if the owners allowed pets. I would happily recommend this house to family and friends.

Beach Week 2024

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been renting 30A gulf front properties for over 20 years and this property is our favorite to date -- great location, floorplan, and common areas were perfect for our current family of 8. The beach was not overcrowded and obviously easy to get to with the private access. We tend to cook in the evenings versus dining out and the kitchen is well outfitted for large family meals.At this price point, we did expect better communication around WiFi name and password, trash days, beach concierge and bike combination locks at the very least. This is the first property where this information was not provided either prior to arrival or was in the unit upon entry. Again, at this price point, your guests expect and deserve to have this information at their fingertips. As it was, I had to contact Royal Destinations for the WiFi name and password and the beach concierge (found on the 2 chairs that came with the rental) to request additional chairs and for waivers to access the combination locks on the 2 bikes included in the rental. The outdoor shower water was scalding hot as there was no cold water plumbed to/available from the spigot -- Royal Destinations was quick to respond, but it was not repaired prior to our departure. We probably tracked a lot of sand into the unit unnecessarily as a result.Overall, a fabulous experience with some minor opportunities to make this an elite 30A destination.

Annual Mother's Day Vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beyond pleased!!! The view right when you first walk in took my breathe away. We had 4 families (one took the twin bunk room) and we really had plenty of room for everyone! The kids had an amazing time for so many different reason, space to play and location being the main reasons! Being able to shower outside was easy clean up for parents and fun for the kids. The view was just perfection. The attention to detail was impressive too! Royal Destinations really impressed us with the Aveda products and the presentation of the rooms/bathrooms. I would look into replacing the grill, the bottom was pretty much rusted away and only one of the burners work. Thats easy to fix and wouldnt ever stop us from coming back. We appreciate the hospitality and thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home. We have found our Annual Mother's Day home! See you next year.

A+ vacation rental!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We LOVED being able to stay in a 1 story house!! The house was clean, spacious, plenty of parking spaces, very nice front yard, plenty of cabinets, closets, pantry space. Large laundry room, spacious deck, outdoor shower. We even brought a large inflatable swimming pool that fit on the deck for the kids. I do feel like I need to mention....There are 43 steps you have to walk down to get to the sand (43 to get back up) But once you get down those steps it’s a short distance to a NONE crowded waters edge! I think this is important to know in case you have elderly or anyone that’s not able to climb up and down stairs. Those steps will not keep us from staying there again! The only reason I rated the property cleanness a 4 had nothing to do with the inside. The back outside could use some cleanup attention. That could start with the guest picking up their own trash. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Location, Location, Location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is great for 2 families. We went with our best friends that have kids that grew up with mine. Our last two are going off to college next month so it was a great place to celebrate and have our last trip together before everyone is spread throughout the country at different schools.The open floor plan was great for the boys to play games and spread out while the girls could chill out on the back porch right in front of the beautiful white sand beaches and clear water. Beach Front location cannot be beat! Just a walk down the back stairs and you are on the beach in an uncrowded area. We could come in and out for lunch, snacks, or just a beach break with zero effort getting back to the house. No cars. Bikes, or golf carts needed, except to go to dinner. There are 2 bikes provided if you’d like to use them. We loved hanging out on the back porch after a day at the beach to cool off before dinner. Ashorething is close to many great restaurants in Rosemary Beach, Inlet, Seagrove, and Grayton beaches.The team and especially our contact Shaun at Royal Destinations were on top of keeping in touch with us for any information we would need. Also, our questions were answered promptly. Fantastic customer service!There is only 1 thing I’d suggest. The house is vey hard to find at night for Ubers or door dashers. We even passed it a few times after being out because there are no markers around or near the driveway. A sign, reflectors, or a flag would help. However the privacy is great and this is not a complaint, just a thought.I’d give Ashorething a 5 out of 5 stars and would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful location

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location on the beach however if there are multiple families staying in the adjacent houses, the beach is narrow. The house is clean with comfortable beds and everything you may need in the kitchen except pot holders for removing hot pans from the oven. The flooring is very dated and not at all attractive - like old hospital flooring. We stayed an extra day bc of the weather and Royal D had to be contacted several times to reset the keypad combo - almost locked ourselves out when it shouldn't have happened. We also had to call the first night for the Wifi password as it's incorrect on the app they want you to use. The TV cable service is wonky and very pixillated so we ended up watching our own Netflix - bummer while trying to watch college football live. We saw a roach in a bedroom day 2 and RD was very responsive and sent the pest control company the next day. AT&T cell service worked well - Verizon not so good. Overall- the benefits outweighed some of the negatives - the house is a great size and all on one level. Views are stunning, furniture very comfortable, large kitchen/dining table, good workout on steps down to the beach (about 35 steps).
