Perfect location and wonderful place. Clean and ready to go. Quiet and peaceful at night. One of our rental cars broke down in the driveway during our departure and the customer service from the house rental company was superb. Super understanding of the situation and helped with a stressful situation. Thank you.

Our experience with our family of five at this property was amazing. The golf cart was a definite plus during our stay as we rode it to and from Baytown Wharf. We never had to leave thw property since beach access was also available. The kitchen had everything we needed and the furniture was comfortable. We will definitely return for another visit soon!

The location was so perfect for our daughter’s college golf tournament as it was right on the course they played and we could easily access the house right from the course. The house was in good condition and met our expectations. My ONLY complaint was there was absolutely no pantry supplies of ANY kind. No salt or pepper, oil, plastic wrap or anything like that which makes it more expensive than it needs to be when trying to save money by cooking meals at the house.

A great time & wonderful vacation experience!
The house was beautiful & clean, the location was fantastic, and the 6-seat golf cart added another fun experience to head over to the beach and to Baytowne Village in the evenings for dinner. Very easy check-in process & the folks @ Gibson were readily available to answer a few questions that we had. Highly recommend staying here!

Gorgeous area and beautiful unit! Tucked away on a dead end cul de sac if you are looking for peace and quiet. Only negative air conditioner was out on downstairs unit over Weekend but taken care of on Monday. Was a little warm but not hot. Great process for checking in and out.

This home was spotless and tucked away in a cul-de-sac. The neighborhood was very quiet and beautiful! You're just close enough to Baytowne Wharf, but far enough away to not be disturbed by noise. We would definitely stay here again! We were even contacted for early check-in!

The house was spotless and had the perfect layout for our stay! I would definitely stay with Gibson again.
The only few negatives were not having a washer/dryer in the house and no extra household items like trash bags or paper towels. The driveway was a bit small, so we had to park my SUV in another location.
Overall the checkout and checkin process was super easy! They even offered for us to stay another night at a discounted rate.

This property was more than perfect for our family of 6. It is beautifully decorated and located in a resort community with a lot of amenities and attractions. The upstairs bedrooms all came with their own bathrooms which was very convenient during our stay. A stack of fresh towels was provided for each bedroom. The house was clean and everything felt new. The brand new washer and dryer came in handy too. The property came with the use of a 6 seater golf cart and was fun and enjoyable to use. We used it to drive to golf course, shopping area and restaurants. There is a cool area in the community which had rides, attractions and restaurants. The property is in a good location and easy drive to anywhere you need to go in the Destin area. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a place to stay in this area!

We had a couple families down for spring break and wanted to avoid 30A. This was so much better for the kids who were seniors. They could visit 30A but stayed mostly with us or at least in SanDestin. The beach was great and having the 6 seater golf cart worked out great. Fun vacation and would highly recommend. The house was perfect for cooking meals. The only issue we ran into was the grill was in bad shape. We bought a new canister of gas to cook out and you just couldn't get it to heat consistently. Very small issue in an overall great stay.

We evacuated after the hurricane hit. I picked up the phone and called since we have stayed with them before. Our place was plenty big enough for 10 people. Alexis was so caring and compassionate. I couldn't have asked for anything else. My mother in law was so impressed that she said she would definitely vacation here in the future. Thank you again for everything you all did for us. We truly appreciate it.

The house was great- very clean and nicely decorated. The golf cart was great and made it nice to travel back and forth to the pool, golf course, shopping, etc. The only thing that would have been nice was if they provided a few more basic essentials so we didn't have to go buy them for just a few days use- a couple more dishwasher packets, kitchen trash bags, salt and pepper, etc.

Everything was as described. My only surprise was the distance by golf cart to all the shops and restaurants at Baytown wharf was much closer than it looks on map. Great place to try and would recommend.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
A short drive to Baytowne sounds like a good surprise! The map definitely gives the impression that Baytowne is further away than it really is, but it is so close and convenient. And with the golf cart, you never have to leave the resort! We hope to see you again soon!

Beautiful inside and out! Clean, love that all the bedrooms have their own bathroom, beds were great. I love love love the comforters. Golf cart was great to have! You would not have to get in your car your entire trip if you didn't want to. Golf cart to the grocery store and Baytown Warf where you shop, eat and have entertainment, and ride to the beach. This is our 4th trip to this resort but our first to book through Gibson Beach Rentals. We will for sure use them from here on out. The app was very useful, the free activities was a great perk, and my husband loved walking out the back door to fish.

My family of 9 (grandparents, grand kids, siblings plus spouses) had a great experience at Villa Lago. Enough space to feel close but not on top of one another. Every room was nicely appointed. Buy extra garbage bags if you’re there a few nights. Pool on resort is small but the nearby beaches are awesome.
