Take a walk through our home below to get a feel for your upcoming trip to The Yellow Pearl!
As you pull up to The Yellow Pearl you'll immediately want to kick up your feet as you take in the lush landscaping & the Southern front porch welcome. With driveway parking for up to 3 vehicles, it's sure to accommodate both large & small groups alike. We offer Smart TVs in every room equipped with standard cable, and the ability to login to your own streaming service while traveling to catch up on all those shows you've been meaning to watch! We offer high speed internet that can be accessed in every area of the home - even the pool deck, because we know that's important to guests that may be working or schooling from "home"!
A few steps will lead you into the foyer hallway, which gives you a glimpse all the way to the backyard from the front door! Bright, sun-filled rooms make it easy to settle in and feel right at home in the Sunshine State!
To the left you'll find the first bedroom, complete with two sets of built-in Twin bunk beds, with a Twin trundle beneath one. A smart TV is available for guest use, as well as storage for clothing and suitcases during your trip.
The second bedroom is located just across the hall, immediately to the right when walking in the front door. This is a spacious King bedroom with closet space, a Smart TV, and an attached full bathroom. This bathroom offers a tub, shower, toilet and sink, and is accessible through the bedroom & also opens up to the hallway.
Continuing down the hall, a stackable washer and dryer is located on the left side, making it easy to get your laundry done during your stay.
Our kitchen, right past the laundry closet, is sure to make the family chef smile. A spacious layout offers a pantry, a small kitchen island in the middle, ample counter space, and breakfast bar seating for 4. Our full appliances include a refrigerator, gas range, microwave, dishwasher, both standard & Keurig coffee makers, and an on-demand countertop ice maker. The cabinets are well stocked with dishes, silverware, cookware, glasses, pots & pans, baking sheets & dishes, blenders, crock pots, and more! Our dining area is adjacent to the kitchen, offering seating for 8. If you plan to cook during your trip, we encourage you to bring along any spices, condiments, & oils you may need as we do not provide any perishable or non-perishable items. We have an easy to use high chair, pack and play, kids cutlery, cups, and plastic dishes for our tiny travelers as well!
The living room is an open layout to the kitchen, allowing everyone to enjoy being together. Two large comfortable couches, and two occasional chairs around the gas fireplace make for cozy nights in after a long beach day! Multiple sets of doors allow access to the porch areas and fenced-in yard, as well as allowing more Florida sunshine in!
The second floor of the home offers two more bedrooms. To the right, you'll find a King bedroom with a private balcony, two closets, a Smart TV, and an attached full bathroom. The bathroom offers His & Hers sinks, a toilet, a separate stand up shower equipped with multiple shower heads, and a nice deep tub!
The Master suite is to the left from the stairway. It boasts a large walk-in closet, a spacious King bed, an additional Twin floor level bed (perfect for little ones!), a private balcony, and an attached bathroom. The bathroom is sure to spoil you with a large walk-in shower with multiple showerheads, a corner standalone tub, an additional closet for belongings, His & Hers sinks, and a separate toilet room.
The third floor completes the main front home with a loft-style bedroom. This room has a Queen bed, Smart TV, and a small kitchenette area with a beverage cooler. This floor also offers a half bath. This is a great floor for the kids to enjoy, or just a quiet place to escape for "working from home".
Our backyard oasis is where we envision our guests to enjoy their days and evenings at The Yellow Pearl. The porch offers a propane grill (propane provided) and plenty of seating across our beautiful paver patio. Guests can rinse off the sand & saltwater from the beach in the outdoor shower located next to the pool. The spacious heart-shaped pool & spill over spa is our favorite spot, and we offer pool & spa heating during our "chilly" months at a great rate - inquire when booking for pricing based on length of stay! Please keep in mind the spillover spa is NOT a hot tub, and in order to enjoy spa heating, guests must opt into having the entire pool heated.
Directly off the pool deck is the carriage home, for those that may be more comfortable in a first floor bedroom or need the separate private space! There are two small steps to enter the carriage home, but otherwise it is all one level.
You'll enter into the first bedroom, which is a King room with a Smart TV. A short hall will lead to the second Queen bedroom. Both rooms have their own doors to access the patio as well. A full bathroom with a stand-up shower, toilet, and sink in located in the middle of the two bedrooms. This is a perfect space for two couples, a small family, or even grandparents who may have mobility limitations with flights of stairs!
Guest Access:
• You’ll receive keyless entry instructions at 4PM CST on the day of your arrival for a smooth, hassle-free check-in.
• You'll have access to both the main home and carriage home during your stay.
The Neighborhood:
• We're located in the highly desired neighborhood of Crystal Beach in Destin, just a short block from public beach access! We are in close proximity to shopping, restaurants, attractions, and more!
Getting Around:
• During busy times it can be easier to take an Uber, Lyft, or taxi to avoid dealing with traffic and parking. The town is fairly easy to navigate, as most everything to do is directly off the main road through in either direction!
Other Things to Note:
• We supply a courtesy amount of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher/dish soap, laundry detergent, and bar soap that's typically enough for the first 24 hours of your stay. For larger groups or longer trips it is recommended that you bring additional supplies as seen fit for your group size/length of stay.
• Please plan your trip accordingly as we are located in Central Standard Time. Check in time is 4:00 PM, and checkout time is 10:00 AM. As cleaning and maintenance needed cannot be predicted, we are not able to schedule early check-ins or late check outs in advance.
• Pool heating is not included in your stay, please inquire for pricing as it varies based on season/length of trip.
• Spring break/student groups (under age 25) must notify us BEFORE booking as prior approval is required. All student guests must sign our student agreement & bring $100 cash per person at time of check-in for a refundable security deposit.
• We must be notified of a pet joining your trip before arrival. We have a 2 pet maximum permitted (unless otherwise approved) & our $200 pet fee must be paid prior to check-in. Pets must be house trained, not permitted on furniture or in the pool, and crated when left unattended. You are expected to clean up after your pet, or a $50 fee will be assessed. Emotional Support Animals are subject to pet fee, ADA Registered Service Animals are the only animals exempt from this at any time. Impersonating an ADA Service animal is a crime in our state so we appreciate honesty in this matter.
• There is only parking to accommodate up to 3 vehicles and street parking/blocking sidewalk/right-of-way may result in citation from the City of Destin to be paid by guest in violation. RV parking is not permitted at our home due to the limited parking, but some boats/trailers may fit depending on the size & number of vehicles that will be accompanying the boat & trailer.
• PLEASE read our house rules in detail before booking. We take time to put important information here that we need each guest to take into consideration when booking our home. While not all items listed may apply to your stay, we host guests of various group compositions so must list all rules that could apply to a trip. Thank you for your understanding!
