Perfect Beach Vacation

We loved this property for our party of 14. It’s a quick 5 minute walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub were fantastic. Our whole family, ages 8 to 71, enjoyed shuffleboard, pool and arcade games. With the age of our teenagers, 8 master bedrooms was awesome as everyone had their own space. Kitchen was well equipped and management company was responsive. They fixed the pool heater and internet during our stay. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay

Took our family to Destin & stayed at this wonderful house. Communication was great & they addressed our questions quickly. There was enough space to spend time together or you could go to another level if you wanted to relax. The elevator was awesome as we had a couple people who couldn’t walk up all the steps. There were shops & things to do close by which was nice. Would highly recommend this house to everyone!

88 Palms/VRBO was an excellent location and house for our 19 people attending this years vacation! The house layout, number of bathrooms and outside space/pool area were a huge hit for all! Would definitely recommend to any large group wanting to stay in the Destin area. Christina (out host) did an excellent job communicating and handling all our needs - thnaks!

Perfect Stay!

This house had more amenities than we could have asked for when booking. The backyard was a nice oasis with a beautiful pool and hot tub. When we compared it with other properties in the area, we couldn't find another home with the same pool experience. The kitchen was filled with all of the convenience of home with air fryer, crock pot, toaster oven, plenty of cookie dishes, pots, pans and dinnerware. The way that the home was decorated was perfect for FL. The rooms were appointed to perfection and every floor was spacious with plenty of room for everyone. Highly recommend this home and this property management group. They were ideal to work with from the start!

Fantastic Off Season Getaway

My stay with my group of 14 was fantastic! The house was beautiful and fit all guests very well. We went during the off-season but we could still utilize the hot tub and all indoor amenities. My contact for the place was very easy to connect with during check-in. We had some confusion with the exact address from what Vrbo used vs the confirmation email from the property manager but she was quick to clear it up for us. It was very easy to get Uber's to pick us this address and we were able to use Instacart several times as well. I wold love to come back and stay at this place during the warmer season, I bet it would be a blast.

This property was one of the best houses we’ve rented through VRBO. Everything about this property was perfect! Location, layout, amenities, management, everything was perfect! We could not find 1 thing wrong with our stay. Walking distance to one of the nicest sections of beach in Destin! We enjoyed our stay so much we actually looked into rebooking for the following month (unfortunately it was already booked, but we WILL rebook at a later date).

Family time - from smalls to talls

This property was just the best!!! Beautiful, very conveniently located to both the beach, restaurants and shopping. Starting with 8 bedrooms, all with private baths to a great kitchen, and pool area that was just beautiful it lived up to the description. I have rented enough vacation homes to know that nothing will be absolutely perfect, but this house came close. The BEST thing was, the property management was so very good at being responsive that we always got our issues (and there weren't that many) resolved quickly. Kudos! Thanks to VRBO and Hermosa for such a great first family reunion that we're already planning for a second one.

Amazing for Families!

Overall best house we’ve stayed at. Super comfortable for big families, we were 17 and fit perfectly with extra room. It is in a perfect location, walking distance from the beach and many places near by. The house was super clean and came with many things for kids. Our kids loved the bunk beds and pool table. The pool area was also great! With a barbecue grill and amazing hot tub, time was well spent. The hot tub was easy to turn off and on. It was in a safe area, our kids walked to and from the beach with no worries. The beds were amazing! Honestly did not want to get up every morning. Kitchen came fully stocked with everything you’d need, also the elevator was great since there is 3 stories. Over loved this stay and would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing get away!
