Area Attractions:
All the excitement of Destin is just minutes away: choice of watersports, golf, amusement parks, and outlet shopping. One glimpse of Destin beaches and you're hooked. It must be the wide, white beaches and the famous emerald waters. Not to mention the fabulous fishing, the world's most beautiful beaches, addictive seafood and the full array of activities for kids of all ages and more fun to be found in Destin.
Here you will find wind surfing, snorkeling, water-skiing and parasailing offered all along the Gulf. Nearby attractions include a Big Kahuna's Waterpark, The Track Family Fun Center and an array of watersports available at Destin Harbor. Of course, you'll want to savor the unique and delicious flavors of the freshest seafood available at any of Destin's more than 100 eateries! Restaurants here range from casual oyster bars to elegant bistros serving culinary delights guaranteed to please your palate.
Come enjoy the freshest seafood, go fishing for all types of salt and freshwater fish, explore fun shops and boutiques or simply relax on breathtaking beaches.
Just 1.5 miles away is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

The enjoyed our stay at the townhome and would visit again. It was nice, clean and the perfect location. 50 feet to the pool and across the street from the beautiful beach. Our toilet handle broke and it was fixed the next day after contacting real joy. Just a couple concerns that are easily fixable. One, the code for the upstairs unit was the same as our downstairs unit. There are 2 separate entrances so not sure why the codes were the same. On arrival I accidentally entered the door to the upstairs unit, which made me realize codes were the same. Second, our master bedroom had a door that led to the entrance/stairway of the upper unit. We never used that door and 3 days into our stay a new guest arrived for the upstairs unit around midnight and they came right into our bedroom through said door, that we didn’t realize was unlocked. Again, both issues can easily be fixed and should be right away as the small issue it was for us could become a major issue with the wrong renters.- Reviewed On: 8/25/2025

The place met my expectations in almost every way.
The location was 10/10.
The kitchen was 10/10.
The bathroom was 9/10.
The only suggestion is to let people know that the master bedroom has a connecting door to the other apartment in the same villa. This way, they won't open the door unexpectedly, as happened to us. Otherwise, the place is perfect. The host's assistance was excellent.- Reviewed On: 4/11/2025

Fun in the sun
The property was exactly as described. Location is great. Right across from beach. No awful high rise condo’s and their chairs taking over the beach!!!! Loved the kitchen setup. A few mini issues: the king bed needs an extra blanket, the shower needs a bath mat, the bunk beds are almost impossible to get in and out of. TV in the bedroom, unless you have streaming channels…there is no TV. While the condo is very tastefully decorated, the furniture itself is not comfortable. We loved the location, close to restaurants. Outlet mall at the end of historic 98. If we repeated vacation destinations we’d stay at Destiny Beach Villas again. Thank you.- Reviewed On: 12/6/2023
