On The Sandbar

This house accommodated my entire family of 23. Everyone slept comfortable and there were plenty of bathrooms. The owner Mark was very accommodating to our request for a beach bonfire, propane tank for grill etc. the beach access was fantastic and the beach itself was phenomenal. Would recommend this property.

We had an amazing stay at this property. The location, layout and beach access could not have been better. There were a few maintenance issues and the house definitely needs some upgrades but management and the owners were responsive and great. When issues came up the owner personally responded and came to the house to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. We would definitely rent from them again.

This very spacious house was perfectly laid out for our family of 14 people. 7 bedrooms, lots of bathrooms, and a great room on the top level with amazing views of the gulf. The location was perfect; it was steps away from the beautiful white sand beach. The beach was not too crowded in this location.

Some of the highlights for me were a very well equipped kitchen with basically everything you need to cook meals at the house, a large living space upstairs that was beautiful and offered amazing views, and of course, the great location.

We did run into a few problems during our stay, but the property owner was very responsive to get things taken care of quickly. One thing I will note is that although the house does have an elevator, the home is not handicap accessible. It was never advertised as such, I just assumed my sister would be able to get into all the rooms with her wheelchair. The design of the house was such that none of the bathroom doors were wide enough for her wheelchair to get through. I want to be clear that it was not advertised as an accessible home, but if anyone in your group is in a wheelchair, it is helpful to know.

Overall, we had a great stay full of lots of sunshine and beach time with our family!

We loved The Sandbar at Miramar Beach! We did spring break with a large extended family of 15 for a week of sun and fun. I don’t think we could’ve found a better set-up than we did with nine bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and an awesome fifth floor great room and kitchen. The balcony overlooking the ocean and beach was absolutely perfect for sunrises and sunsets. And the location of this beach house in between the Surf Hut and Whale Tail Beach Bar made for a great week with our “feet in the sand and cocktail in hand!”

This house is a bit older, so you could definitely tell they were putting some work into improvements. But Audrey and Mark were absolutely awesome with responding to any issue or request we made. We couldn’t have asked for more! We also had our elderly parents on this trip, so the elevator was essential for getting them to all five levels.

Without question, the highlight feature of this beach house is the location and access to the ocean. The soft white sand and clear ocean waters are literally steps away from the beach access door. We loved our morning coffee on the balcony listening to waves, and then minutes later being on the beach ready for a day in the sun.

If you are planning a trip with a large group of individual families, this is definitely a property you should consider. Thank you Mark and Audrey for helping us create great memories with my family!

We held a small intimate beach ceremony and then the family gathered in the main room to celebrate. It was a perfect day for a crazy year. The view was beautiful and the house was perfect.

Imagine yourself cooking meals on the top floor great room while looking out to the ocean. You can catch sunrises and sunsets all from your private Balconies, and the place is perfect for several families and friends.

Our family had an amazing time at this beautiful beach house. It was bigger than what we expected and had plenty of room to spread out. The location is incredible - I mean you walk out into your backyard and its the beach! And when the kids need a break from the sun, there is a small pool to splash around in. We very much enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets and miles of the white sandy beach. The management company is super easy to contact for any questions and the owner is lovely. We would highly recommend this place to others and will definitely be coming back.

Our group of 22 people had a great time staying at this beautiful house. It really could not have gone better. Audrey and Mark were both great, and the property was just as described...amazing. The location of this house was what made it so special...on the beach and in the middle of all that goes on in Miramar beach. The view was insane as well. This trip could not have gone better, all thanks to Audrey. Definitely looking forward to a next time at this property!

Our stay at the Sandbar was wonderful. The owner was extremely helpful and even helped carry our bags in the door. We brought a trailer for our family toys. ( bikes, pattleboards, etc) and he helped us find a place to park it.

Our family of 15 had a wonderful time. The house was large enough for all of us, and Mark, the owner was very responsive to our requests and concerns. The home was extremely clean when we arrived, and the kitchen well-equipped.. The elevator allowed our 80 year old parents to easily go from floor to floor. The biggest selling point of all is the fabulous location of the home on the beach. The views from the fifth floor kitchen and great room are simply breathtaking.

Five families stayed in this house for seven days. We loved having the elevator to use instead of the spiral stairs. They proved to be somewhat daunting. The house is laid out beautifully. The kitchen is well stocked as are the restrooms. My only concern is the unfinished tile work on the second floor balcony caused an injury to one of our kid’s feet. I would stress the importance of getting that finished. Other than that, we enjoyed our time at On the Sandbar! The owners and managers were extremely kind and easy to work with! Great rental!

The home was a nice home, with the exception of the description says it has 6 twin beds and it does not, but they will bring you a blow up mattress! Mark the son of the owner was fantastic, was always there when we needed him, they elevator was not working on the beach level the first day we arrived which made it difficult to get our handicapped mother in law down to the beach! We made some awesome memories, but since the property is not marked private property we had a lot of people coming up using our wading pool to wash their feet and using the hose, people stole my grandchildren's boogie boards, a little disappointed after spending nearly $13,000 for a week.

The owners son met with us when we first arrived and was very accommodating. He got us a bonfire permit. The house was nice and big. The elevator made things easier to carry groceries to the fifth floor.

This property is perfect for large families with three floors of private ensuite bedrooms and a large fifth floor great room with beach side porch, All bedrooms have wi-fi and TV with various bed arrangements. Private off-street parking can accommodate 4 vehicles. Shopping and restaurants are within a few minutes drive. Owners are intimately dedicated to an enjoyable experience for the guest.

Owners were also very responsive.

The property was very clean and well cared for. Our family of 15 had room to spare. Our elderly parents were with us so the elevator was a must and it worked perfectly. Beds were comfortable and the view from the 3 master suites was incredible. The owner provided fire wood and permits for fires on the beach. That was a highlight for our family. We would definitely rent this property again! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. Lots of refrigerator and freezer space. Some of the furniture could use an updating.
