Southern Charm was CHARMING

A Guest from Brentwood, TN United States
Mar 2022

Southern Charm was wonderful. It is a beautifully decorated house that made my family of 5 + my parents feel right at home for a week. I fell in love with water sound west beach. We owned a home in watercolor for years and I LOVED this neighborhood so much more. Easy beach access just a bike ride away and the lovely neighborhood pool was beautiful and a few blocks away and plenty big for my kids. What I loved the most was even In the middle of spring break (which can be CRAZY) the neighborhood was very quiet. My 9 year old had no trouble riding her bike around and I wasn't the least bit worried about traffic. Highly recommend. We are very familiar with 30A and I would recommend this house to anyone I know looking for a place to stay. If you WANT to be in the middle of Seaside or Rosemaryl, this is not the place for you. It's drivable but its a haul on a bike. But if you want a place thats convenient to a lot (the HUB is very close) and quiet and beautiful this is the place for you.

Manager Response

Hi Brandon! We are thrilled to hear your recent stay at Southern Charm was worthy of a five-star rating. From the privacy of WaterSound to the amenities this home and neighborhood have to offer, Southern Charm is a great home to spend a relaxing getaway in. We are happy to hear yourself, your kiddos, and your parents were able to fully immerse yourself in the 30A lifestyle and explore all WaterSound has to offer. We hope to welcome you back to 30A soon!

Southern Charm was the perfect “home away from home” when we were forced to evacuate from Hurricane Ida. Royal Destinations went above and beyond accommodating us for this last minute unexpected stay. The home was clean, convenient and helped allleviate a lot of our stress

It has a warm welcoming feeling from the moment you pull into the neighborhood. It is in a quaint area where you are not too far away from local shops and restaurants. This home is perfect for any family looking for a relaxing vacation on 30A. Again, thank you for your review! We look forward to hosting you on your next beach trip!

We had a great experience at Southern Charm! Community was charming, home was beautiful, beds were comfortable and porch was delightful. Be sure to rent or bring bikes with a burley to get to the beach - it's a long haul, but we loved our rides everyday and so did our kiddo. Look forward to coming back next year!

Manager Response

Thank you for your 5-star review! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at the lovely Southern Charm. The name says it all for this home.

You can use our complimentary adult bikes and take a lovely stroll down to the beach to take in that beautiful sunset or you can ride on the 30A bike path and be at local shops and restaurants in minutes. This home is sure to meet the needs of any family looking to vacation on 30A. Again, thank you for your review. We look forward to hosting you again at Southern Charm!

Perfect House and Location

A Guest from Moultrie, GA United States
Jul 2020

Southern Charm was the perfect house for an awesome family vacation. Watersound West is a beautiful quiet neighborhood with access to a private beach. Southern Charm was extremely clean and well furnished. The beach is a quick 10 minute bike ride or 15 minute walk to the beach. The pool area is located at the entrance to the boardwalk to the beach. The property description by Royal Destinations was accurate and the photos depict the property as you will find it. We wish we had an extra week to enjoy Watersound West and Southern Charm. We would highly recommend Southern Charm as well as Royal Destinations.

House was perfect for us and in great shape And spotless clean. Parking was limited but we made due. Beach was amazing. The beach access was a hike with kids and gear. I would definitely recommend a bike with a pull behind cargo holder that can travel on the boardwalk to the beach. Overall we were happy with our stay.

This house was spotless and fit our family perfectly. The decor is beautiful. It is quite a hike to get to the beach but well worth the exercise! Had trouble with the lights/fan in master bedroom/bathroom continually tripping the breaker. However, the maintenance was quick to respond.

Hello, Todd! Thank you so much for your review. We are excited to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Southern Charm. We love the decor and attention to detail the owner gives to this home!

Beautiful home about 7 minute bike ride to the beach. Updated furniture and ample space for everyone to enjoy. 10 minute bike ride to HUB and about 25 minute bike ride to Seaside. Will definitely be back.

Manager Response

Dear T, Thank you for taking the time to post your kind review. Southern Charm is the prefect name for this lovely home in the gated neighborhood of Watersound West. The owners have done a wonderful job of combining taste, comfort,and hospitality in this coastal gem. Being on the Gulf side of 30A makes it an easy walk or ride to the beach on wonderful nature trails. The new bridge takes you over the dune lake outflow to your beach chairs set up next to the pristine state park beaches. You are like most of our guest who, once they stay at Southern Charm, come back again and again. The team at Royal looks forward to helping you make some more beautiful beach memories.

Dear S- Thank you for taking the time to post your review. Southern Charm is truly an outstanding home. It is one of the reasons why we have so many repeat guests. The owners have done a great job giving the house a relaxed gracefulness that makes for a comfortable beach retreat. The beach at Watersound West is one of the best spots on the Gulf Coast to have the emerald-green waters wash your cares away. It is a great location to bring the family to the beach and not have to fight traffic or crowds. Our guest really love the serenity and beauty of Deer Lake and the pristine beach.

We had a wonderful time staying at Southern Charm July 2-9, 2016. The home was absolutely stunning, immaculate and gorgeous. The kitchen was well-stocked and the management was helpful and checked in to see if anything was needed. It is not close to the beach - .3 miles away but was a doable walk/bike ride. We loved the bikes and beach chair set-up.

Dear Mrs.S- Thank you for taking the time to post your review. Our owners have made Southern Charm look like Southern hospitality. Elegant, but relaxed. Staying in Watersound West is like staying in a classic neighborhood coastal community. Away from the crowds, where one can appreciate the harmonious marriage of nature and development. It is the perfect setting for that Gulf Coast getaway. We are so glad that you enjoyed your visit. At Royal, we work very hard for our owners and guests and we love to read that our guest had that great vacation!

Perfect Beach Cottage Getaway

A Guest from Warm Springs, GA United States
Sep 2015

Southern Charm met our every expectation .... A beach trip with our daughters from out of state for my husband's birthday. The layout and design (we are professional commercial designers ourselves) were so perfect, our daughter who just purchased property in St. Croix and wants to duplicate this beach cottage. Very clean, like a 5 star resort, Royal Beach Rentals were very professional and helpful, staying in touch via text and email. Our location was perfect, close to both Seaside and Rosemary Beach. Loved the bikes, and the pool was luxurious. I would highly recommend Royal Beach Rentals and this cottage.

Charming Stay

A Guest from Niceville, FL United States
Jun 2015

Absolutely gorgeous, immaculate, new beach cottage with room to spread out, lavish furnishings, well-stocked kitchen with everything you could need and more. The proximity of the other cottages' porches in high season needs to be a consideration from a noise standpoint. The walk over Deer Lake State Park wooden bridge to the serene and almost deserted (compared to overrun Seaside and Watercolor) sugar white sandy beach was well worth the walk. The owners have great pride in this home and Royal Beach was easy to work with and very nearby, should a problem arise.
