Customer Reviews

  • We wanted to share our experience in building our home with Kingfish Bay Development.
    We really enjoyed the process of selecting our home. Sharon in sales listened to us which helped us find the best plan and lot for our needs. She also walked us through the house during construction. She is very customer friendly and supportive.
    Tamara the director of design and selections was great to work with in the design phase providing choices and advice. We were impressed with the way they all turned out. She designed one of our favorites which is a wine bar.
    The KFB construction team led by Ty and Jesse were always available for questions. They also worked closely with us to identify areas of concern which were few as well as resolved our punch list. The communication was open and collaborative.
    We have built two homes with KFB which could have been very stressful! Thanks to the trusted team of KFB this stress was manageable and the process exciting

  • Today I viewed the house and the kitchen tile backsplash looks fantastic.
    I have to say, there is nothing I would change throughout the house, every room is beautiful and the floors are truly wonderful.

    Thank you Haley and Sharon for scheduling access today and letting me roam the house in complete happiness.
    Thank you Tamara for your timely and reassuring input regarding the backsplash.

    On a broader note, thank you to each of you for your help, feedback, guidance, patience, teamwork and great attitudes during this process. You have all been amazing people to work with.

    Not long now, Did I say….I AM SO HAPPY 😀

  • I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all of your help, support and work with guiding me through the purchase process at Kingfish Bay. I’ve been looking in the Kingfish Bay development for a few years now. I met with Jim White in April and as you know, met you there when I looked again in September. Finally I impulsively walked into your office again in October and you and your team has made the purchasing and selection process seamless. For someone like myself who is very careful in making big purchases you and your co-workers have taken the stress (as much as possible) out of this process. Kingfish Bay is exactly what I was looking for. The homes and feature selections are all beautiful. I love the amenities that the community offers! I’m excited at getting to call Kingfish Bay my home!
