Quiet neighborhood, super short walk to the beach.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay, walk to the beach was super short and convenient. We rented a golf cart for a couple of days so we could go to nearby shops and restaurants, all within walking distance as well. The house was stocked with everything we needed to cook dinners as well as beach accessories in the garage. The house was very clean, we will definitely stay here in the future.

Pretty Good

Overall, good. HAD to buy insurance, which I didn’t feel was necessary. And something about clearly paying a cleaning fee and then being told how to clean before you leave, irks me. Conveniently located to attractions yet in a very quiet neighborhood. Pool about 2 blocks from house.

Pedestrian and street traffic 24/7

A home that needs maintenance and remodeling. Not much for cookware and rusty knifes and such were offputting. The host was pleasant.

Perfect Location and Comfortable space

We enjoyed our stay here. The king size beds were really comfortable, which is key when traveling for us. Our daughter loved the bunk bed room and all the books and sand toys available. They even had a wagon you could pull to the beach, which was a short 5-7 minute walk away from the house. There was a Whole Foods down the street and close to plenty of restaurants and shopping. We would definitely stay here again.

Late Summer Getaway

My wife and I stayed at this house last year during the exact same time of the year. Except last year it rained every day but one. Even though it rained, we still enjoyed our stay and swore we would never go back the ysame time next year. Well guess what, we did go the same time one year later and there was no rain, full sun and everything was great. The house is wonderful, the beds are comfortable and my grandson loved the bunk bed.

The check in process was flawless. Property was clean and well stocked. Great instructions and information located plainly in house. Short walk to beautiful beach. Close to shopping. Quieter part of strip. Great Spring Break for me and my teenager. Would definitely recommend.

Great family getaway

House and location were great! The house was clean, had everything we needed and plenty of space for our family. Our daughter especially loved the bunk bed room, it made her feel at home. The neighborhood and pool are wonderful, close to everything but away from the business. It was so nice being able to borrow the beach wagon, buggy boards and sand toys! If you plan on cooking, make sure to bring Tupperware or something to store your leftovers, that was the only thing that was missing for us.

Perfect House For a Girls Trip

Quaint, charming house located less than a five minute walk from Destin beach. The check-in process was quick and the house was very clean when we arrived. The neighborhood was also quiet and the pool was nice to go to when the beach was too crowded. Overall this house worked out perfectly for our party of 6 and we’re already looking forward to our next trip to Destin.

This place was a perfect get away place. Close to the beach, pool in the neighborhood, nice front porch to rock and enjoy the outside. The place was nicely appointed, just needed to some Beach Towels and Chairs, or mention in the description that those items were not included. I definitely will try and come back and stay at this place again.

Great Stay!

This property is great! Very short 5 minute walk to the beach. 2 minute walk to the pool. Short drive to any Destin entertainment. The house was clean and beds in two big bed rooms were very comfortable for the most part. Kids said top bunk of bunk beds was pretty uncomfortable. That was really the only complaint. Would recommend this property to any one headed to Destin.

Destin Review

The house was well equipped and well stocked with most necessary items. The garage contained a lot of beach items, like umbrellas, skim boards, and toys, which made it convenient for the toddler in our family. The owner was attentive to our needs and easily reached. Beach access was a 5-7 minute walk, however no ramp or showers at the nearest beach. Another beach with these facilities was a further 5 mintes away.

Best location in Destin!

Quiet neighborhood, public beach access (5 minute walk great for small children), across from Destin Commons, and easy to get on the highway and head to dinner! The house was great we loved the garage access for our beach items (wagon & toys), the front porch was great for morning coffee! Our kids enjoyed the ice cream truck in the afternoon!

For our family of 6, this was great - house layout worked perfect, proximity to the beach was great & lots of things within walking distance. Kitchen could have had a few more items, but was pretty easy to make do with what was there. Front porch was awesome for morning coffee with my sweet husband. We hope to be back!

Excellent property

Our overall stay was awesome. We’re very quiet people and hoped our neighbors were the same. They actually were… I think 2 of the neighbors were property owners and very very nice people. We hope to make it back this year. I did only give the property a 4 star rating for cleanliness, however the property was almost perfect 5 stars all the way but my brother found women’s underwear behind a tv. Lol!
