Another Great Stay

Awesome time. This is the third time staying at this property and my entire family including the dog enjoyed it. One of the great things about this property is the property management company. They were very attentive and easy to communicate with. The little neighborhood is quiet and a very short walk to the beach and close to area attractions/shopping.

Relaxing!

Loved the house for our party of 11, two separated families. The pool and proximity to the ocean and beach were perfect for our group. Short walks and the availability of the expandable wagon were ideal. Great property, location and access to management for questions (we weren’t sure on check out responsibilities) made this a seemless trip to one of USA’s most beautiful beaches and amenities!

Beautful house with all the conveniences. Our group of 10 stayed very comfortably here. The house and its furnishings were all very clean and well kept. Just like it was pictures on VRBO. Convenient location to the beach and to 98. Golf cart made trips yo the beach very easy. It was a eonderful, relaxing week! Thank you!

Great Sttt add y

Great location with short walk to the beach. Neighborhood is very quiet and great for walking our dog. Management company was great to work with and getting the property rented was a breeze. Do yourself a favor and eat at Fat Clemenza’s on 98. We found it this trip and wished we had done so sooner. Incredible Italian cuisine. Definitely will be going back to the property.

Fantastic stay!!

This property and our experience with it was fantastic. Great communication from the property manager and very quick responses to any queries. The house was perfect for our family location and the proximity to the beach, as well as access to the community pool, were wonderful. The beach toys in the garage were enjoyed by all! We were especially impressed with responses to maintenance requests. There were a few issues when we checked in but someone came promptly to fix them. The television didn't work and they brought a brand new one and installed it! This property was great and we would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking. We do wish we had opted to use the golf cart as that would have made trips to the beach easier but the provided wagon served well for transporting beach chairs and toys.

Our 6 week stay

We absolutely fell in love with this house while staying here for 6 weeks. It was very clean and neat. The beds were very comfortable which we have not had in our past houses we stayed in. We loved the neighborhood and the walk along the beach every day. The water was so clean and you could see right through it. Loved the clean white sand. We would love to stay here again next year if it is not sold before we come back. Would highly recommend this house to anyone coming to Destin. ❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful beach home in lovely neighborhood

House was clean, beautiful with a reasonably stocked kitchen. Short walk to the beach. Golf cart was a lot of fun - definitely worth the extra money. Community pool was very short walk and empty so we had it to ourselves. Destin commons is very close. The property has a grill and 2 bikes that were not listed in the amenities so that was a nice surprise. Parking was tight, we had a minivan and an SUV so there was lots of pulling in and out to get access to the golf cart. Not a big deal though. Would definitely stay here again.

Cute Property Close to Beach

The property was clean and had a lot of gear for the beach available. The parking is very narrow so if you are traveling with more than one vehicle the cars will have to be rearranged. The wifi would not connect in the upstairs bedroom during the stay. Management was contacted and they attempted to come fix it but it was still messed up by the time we left.

Listing mischaracterizes distance from the beach

BEWARE: If you are staying with small children who love the beach, this is not the house for you. The listing says it is "two blocks from the beach" when it is actually 3/4 mile to the public beach with amenities and parking, and 1/2 mile to the public beach with no parking or amenities. Fortunately, the pool was close. The house was well appointed and the bedrooms and bathrooms were great, but the dining room and table were too small to accommodate the 12 people who were staying there. We would have appreciated a larger common area and dining room.

Family time in Destin Florida.

Our visit from start to finish was perfect! The house was as described on VRBO. I received all the check in information prior to our arrival via email. The house was ready for our arrival. The house was spotless and well suppied with all the essentials. The house had plenty of room for our four adults and two children and small pet. The kitchen was very well stocked with many utensils , pans, and dishes. We rented the golf cart, but we really didn’t need it. We found plenty parking at all the beaches. Parking if not free was usually $5.00 for 5 hours. The beaches are amazing! Sugar sand and turquoise water! The weather was up and down, but we found plenty to do. If you have small children visit Baytown on the Harbor. Big shoot out to Nancy, our property manager she was so helpful and kind! Great time many memories! Valeri
