Crosswinds

Everything was good, Close to beach and made some good memories!

We loved this house, the location is perfect with no problems getting to the beach. The bayou was really awesome for the kids and the dog. Also, there is not one bald eagle, there are two and they were so cool to watch all day. I read some of the older negative reviews on this home and I was a little bit nervous about renting, but this home is perfectly described and in many ways better than the descriptions. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked (bring your own spices) and the interior & exterior furnishings were more than adequate for a Florida beachfront rental home. We will definitely be back!

The older negative reviews on this house need to be removed (hurricane reviews don't count). The house is just as described in the property description. We loved it and will stay again. Very comfortable house with easy beach access. Also, Florida corrosive environment reviews shouldn't count either, but I know a lot of people don't understand everything coastal in Florida is subject to this.

Palms full of dead fronds. Obscured view of beach. Screen door and back door needs attention and cleaning.

Property was great, very well maintained and feels good inside of the home.

No internet or tv when we arrived. Would be good to check before renters arrive. 6 remotes scattered around downstairs. Need to label which ones go to tv. Also a list of tv channels would help.

Property was wonderful. Very easy access to the beach. Caught tons of crabs right behind the house. Pictures do not do this house justice. Was way more gorgeous in person.

We enjoyed our stay! Being dog friendly was what we were looking for and it was perfect for that! Location is very convenient!

It’s nothing on Pristine Properties watch but this house sits on money bayou and instead of a view of the gulf we got traffic on the beach and people wading fishing playing music fighting with a neighbor. But we will be happy to rent from Pristine again. These things are not their problem, we just like a little more privacy

Had a blast!

At this time there is no direct beach access. The bayou has cut off access. There is a bridge but belongs to house next door and cannot be used. Walking through the vacant lots on one side is not possible as you will walk on private property and the dunes that are being restored. To get to the beach you walk down 30A to one of the neighboring streets or drive to a park.

The rains from Hurricane Sally then Hurricane Zata did result in Money Bayou being wider and deeper for a portion of time than it typical.

We enjoyed the house so much. Really Liked the layout and Pristine was so helpful. Hopefully the owners will work on a Dune walkover and put in a large screen TV in the living room.

Great house great location. We had a blast.

Although the photos were accurate I was disappointed at the view that a "beach front" property normally affords and I don't feel the property price reflected this. Nonetheless your staff was great to work with (when I accidentally booked 2 properties simultaneously) and my family had a very enjoyable week.

Great location and better value. We loved being right on the bayou and the beach. There was so much wildlife nearby and in the neighboring parks. The beach was not crowded at all so it was very peaceful. The property management company was very helpful and promptly came whenever needed. A few points though: - the property located diagonally in front of the house is in such disrepair that it is actually very dangerous. The neighbors should petition to have it cleaned up before someone gets hurt. - every morning the trash was dumped and strewn about the yard. We learned from a neighbor that a bear has been hitting all the trash cans every night. The property managers came to clean it when called so that was nice. A few issues with the house itself: - the tv setup is very outdated and hard to find a channel you’re looking for. There is also some parental control on it that blocks almost everything. - the upstairs lookout deck railing is falling apart and could be dangerous - the fan on the back porch does not work even when we got a new battery for the remote - the plumbing is very strange. When you flush the upstairs toilet, the 1st floor toilet bubbles and sputters quite a lot as well as the kitchen sink drain

People from Pristine Properties are wonderful to deal with. Will definitely stay at one of their places again!

We loved our stay at Crosswinds. The house is spacious and comfortable. Piles of small shells washed up on the beach every morning. It was such a thrill to see St. George, the Bald Eagle, sitting atop the pine just next to the back deck (apparently he visits so much they named him ?). We loved being right next to Money Bayou where we fished, crabbed, and kayaked. So glad we took advantage of the VayK Gear offer! Having the kayaks delivered was so convenient. A corn hole set came with our order and the nightly corn hole tournament became one of the trip's highlights for the kids. We would definitely stay at Crosswinds again. One heads up to any vacationers planning to cook some meals at home during your stay- Crosswinds doesn't come stocked with any basics like salt/pepper/basic spices, etc.

The house was clean and very nice, lots of room for our big family. Short walk to beach. The bayou was great for cast net and had a fabulous Mullet dinner from catch. Weather was great and lots of fun had by all.

Despite the construction (which is great to see the recovery post Michael) Crosswonds was nice. There is a home between it and the surf that did not fare so well but the view and sound of the surf was great. Just what we needed this week. Parking was perfect for the boat and the screened porch was great - likely required in summer for outdoor relaxing with no bugs.
