House was very clean and comfortable. Not too far to walk to the beach. It's also a very easy walkable route to access the community pool, tennis court, and volleyball court.

Great house for our family vacation, we had 10 people in our group and this was the max I’d suggest here. The private pool was a big hit for the kids and close to the beach but definitely be prepared for a 8-10 min walk. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay. The house was beautiful and close to the beach- just a few minute walk. The only thing we weren’t 100% happy with is it was marketed as a 5 bedroom house. One of the bedrooms was actually a small room off the master bedroom - not its own room. It has clear french doors, so zero privacy. Would be the perfect setup for a family with kids.

We loved our stay! The house and location were great! It was a short, easy walk to the beach. We also enjoyed the private pool. One complaint is it’s marketed as being a 5 bedroom home. One of the bedrooms is a side room off a master with clear French doors…so there was no privacy for the couple that stayed in that room. Would be ideal for a family and their kids. Other than that absolutely no complaints! We had a great time!

We spent a long weekend here to celebrate my friend's upcoming wedding. There were 8 of us and the house had plenty of space.

Property was advertised. Clean was the property, corners and behind of items could use attention. Bedding and dishware appeared to be freshly washed. Lawn was cut 8:00am sharp the second day of visit. Pool filter was full and pool water wasn't crispy clear. Could not smell chlorine nor could fine tablets for water treatment. Overall 7 out of 10. Didn't help for sale sign in front of house.

6 friends and I decided to take a vacation to reset after suffering great losses within our family and friends. Once we arrived in Destin there were a few unexpected hiccups along the way. I want to make it very clear that our host went above and beyond to make sure we were all accommodated, secure and happy with our situation. We are eternally grateful for the level of compassion, professionalism and support that was extended to us. Our vacation home was absolutely beautiful, warm and inviting. The private pool was delightful, the beach was super close and everything we could have possibly needed was at our disposal. This property is a must! There was plenty of room to accommodate all 7 of us. Clean, comfortable and pleasant decor. You won’t regret it! We will most definitely vacation here in the future! Thank you Sarah and Jessica for brightening our stay, you’re both rockstars!!

This beautiful beach home provided us with great memories for our girls trip—fun in the sun!!

We absolutely loved the pool and big main floor gathering space. The location is perfect walking distance to the beach and even some cool bars/restaurants. Even though the neighborhood was big and right by the beach, it was so quiet when we were outside. There were a ton of pool floats/toys provided. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed and the beds were all very comfortable! The outdoor pool entrance/gate area was a little rough on the bottoms of our feet, but you can solve that by wearing flip flops—so no big deal at all. Other than that there was nothing to complain about this beautiful beach home!
