Jun 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Destin Getaway We booked the property based on the number of positive reviews. The property lived up to the great reviews and we had a great time in the area. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed during our stay. The location was convenient and the beach access was a definite plus. We did have a pair of flip flops stollen from the neighborhood beach pavilion one night when we walked the beach - they were left between the two locking gates on the pavilion. The beach chairs / wagon could be upgraded so guests would have the option of bringing them to the beach and avoiding the $50 (2 chair and umbrella) daily rental fee. No beach towels provided so bring your own. The washer and dryer, TV area, dining area , and overall house layout worked great for my family for the week. ##### Andrew G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Chanda P. May 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### May 2025 The property was very much as advertised. Communication with the owner was efficient.Positives:-great layout with plenty of space-comfortable beds-box fans also supplied for bedrooms--nice for creating white noise at night-ample dining space-well appointed kitchen, plenty of dishes and silverware-crockpot, blender, mixer, mini-chopper, etc.-nice, quiet neighborhood (we have stayed here in another property several times)-quick walk to the Dollar General was convenient.-large walk-in closet in downstairs master-games, puzzles, books in downstairs living room closet-although we didn't need them, there were several baby items like a high chair, etc.-outdoor gas grill with outdoor seating-poolsPossible areas for improvement-upper balcony needed cleaning-I would rate the overall cleanliness as an 8/10, but admittedly I am very picky. -providing beach chairs would be a nice bonus-tennis/basketball area was being renovated and was blocked off but this information was not communicated prior to our visit-1/2 mile walk to the beach. This wasn't a problem for us as we were all adults, but it might be worth noting for those with littles or individuals with mobility issues.-Bathrooms are a little dated, but everything was in good working order with ample counter and storage space.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider staying at this property again in the future. May was a beautiful time in Destin with great weather and fewer crowds. ##### Chanda P. Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kendra S.

We really enjoyed the pools at this property. Unfortunately the air conditioning went out on our last days at this property. The host did offer to bring us fans but I believe they ended up having to replace the unit after we left. ##### Haley G.

We were a group of 7 and there was more than enough space for everyone. The house was very clean and very easy to reach the host. The short walk to the beach was also a plus and the buggy/beach chair was a nice bonus. Would recommend this cottage to everyone. ##### Nancy D.

The beds were comfortable. We had a great time in Destin, with the house being in the center of everything. ##### Sarah H. Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon T.

Being dog friendly and just minutes from the beach was ideal. We absolutely loved the community- and will definitely be staying there again in the future. ##### Jon T.

May 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Stowaway beach vacation Great vacation and value - included beach front chairs - house was nice and rooms spacious. My only negative is that the air conditioning caused my family to get congested - may need new filters. I was also told that a claim was made against us for a cracked fridge shelf - which was already cracked before...:( - Still, we had a great time and I'd return in a heart beat. ##### FRANK L.

Beautiful bedrooms. Great location. Two beautiful pools and a absolutely gorgeous beach within walking distance of the cottage. Impressive community. Loved it, loved it!! Would come back here in a heartbeat. ##### Margaret P.
