Destin home away from home!

My family and I enjoyed Lydia’s place so much! It literally felt like we were home. The pool was great and the perfect size for my family. The kids stayed in it daily during our stay lol it’s great to know that this home was their family home where they raised their 3 sons. There was more than enough space for us and bathrooms and super close to the beach access. It’s walking distance but the golf cart was a great addition. Lydia was helpful in making sure we felt welcomed and knew the ins and outs of Destin. Communication was top tier. Any questions we had were answered/addressed promptly. We would love to come back maybe during the summer! Thanks again

Great place to stay!

This was the perfect house for the 11 of us that spent the weekend. The covered porch was great for hanging out in the shade, the pool was very clean, and the front yard is perfect for cornhole. The 6 seater golf cart made transportation/parking at the beach a breeze. Comfortable beds and plenty of parking. Great place to stay!

Last minute getaway

This was very last minute after cancelling my birthday trip to Jamaica. I was shocked to find such a beautiful property so close to the 4th. House was very clean and the amenities were great. Especially the pool. We didn’t need to buy anything. Property is right around the corner from everything. Lydia was very responsive and accommodating. I’m hoping we make this an annual trip moving forward - and will definitely stay more than two nights in the future.

Great family house

We loved the house, outdoor area and pool. We would definitely stay here again. The host were courteous and prompt for any issues that we had. The beach area was not great. To many private areas and not enough public access. We were disappointed with the beach. The house had a great pool that we thoroughly enjoyed. 😊🌴

Great location with nice pool

We rent in Destin every year. We enjoy the location and proximity to the beach. This property is average based on what we normally see. It is a nice home, but the previous reviews set unrealistic expectations. We were expecting a little more based on the review we read prior to booking, but were not surprised with the reality. It has clearly been a rental for a very long time and needs a little tlc. The mattress in the owner's suite has two dips that are about 6" deep, with what feels like a mound in the middle (certainly seems like it was a nice mattress when it was newer). Your are basically stuck in one spot in the bed while sleeping. The outdoor cushioned furniture is torn. While the home is relatively clean, we found excess layers of dust in the downstair bath and light fixtures. Also, our kids feet would turn black when they walked bare foot.

We had the best week in Destin staying with Lydia. She was always helpful and responsive whenever we reached out. Our flights got changed and she let us check in early so we didn’t have to lug everything around all day with our 11 month old in toe. The house was close to everything we needed/ wanted to do, we didn’t need to use a vehicle at all. A short golf cart ride to the beach, shops, restaurants, etc. We will definitely be back and we couldn’t recommend this trip enough!

Nice place to stay

This was in a nice location to everything in Destin. The pool was great, the outdoor sitting area (you can see the street so not private) but my family loved it out there. The kids loved the basketball hoop as well. The inside was nice nothing fancy but homey. Lydia was a good host I would recommend this property.

The house was directly as listed, was perfect for 4 couples. Lydia was amazing accommodated us getting in early on Friday since our flights got there so early. She came back showed us how to work a few things and was very responsive. Would love to see a ceiling fan outside on the patio but other than that everything was great.
