Great beach house!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! There was a short 10 minute walk to beach access and the house was well equipped with a wagon, sand toys, and other beach equipment! The house comfortably slept 8 of us and had all kitchen appliances/utensils to eat at home. The house is located in close proximity to a variety of popular Destin restaurants. Would recommended staying here!

Perfect family getaway

Stephanie was an amazing host, extremely communicative and very accommodating. Property exactly as listed; spacious, beachy, well maintained. Loved the layout (open floor plan with large central common area and all 3 bedrooms separated - and location - close to everything. Well-stocked kitchen and bathroom. We really appreciated having lots of linens and plenty of dishes and utensils. Bring your own beach towels, but other than that had everything we needed. Perfect place for our family of 6 (all adults) to spend Christmas together.

Perfect Beach Weekend

We were in town for a college friend's wedding and a group of us decided to stay an extra couple days after finding this beautiful property. Easy walk to the beach, restaurants like Camille's, and Destin Commons. The beach shower outside was a godsend. We spent hours on the porch swing and screened in porch catching up with dinner we cooked in the kitchen. I cannot recommend this home enough!

Lovely Stay

This house is perfect for a family of 6! It is layed out beautifully with the bedrooms spread apart to ensure everyone has their own privacy. The host was so easy to get ahold of and the house has everything you need! The walk to the beach is about 5 minutes, we rented a golf cart and it was exactly what we needed to run around. Highly recommended.

Perfect holiday

We picked Destin as our destination to enable us to visit with our college daughter for thanksgiving. The home perfectly accommodated us and our two daughters-everyone had their own space. The short 5 minute walk to the beach was convenient plus to have the wagon and chairs provided as a nice bonus. Super close to shopping and Whole Foods made thanksgiving dinner easy. And the host Stephanie was very responsive and answered our many questions patiently. She even sent a package that was delivered after our stay. We hope to come again!

Perfect location, cute little place!

We traveled for my daughter’s 13th birthday with her bestie. The place was so cute and walking distance to the beach and restaurants. The Host was super sweet and left a cookie cake for Ava along with some chocolates. The little wagon helped a ton carrying things to the beach every day. The only bad thing was that the pool was closed and no one gave us a heads up about it. Other than that, it was a fantastic stay!
