Area Attractions:
There are wonderful shops and restaurants close by and great attractions such as golf courses, Big Kahuna's Water and Adventure Park, boating, fishing, and watersports.
Close by 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 Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.
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!

Nice house. Everything is brand new, even with tags on a few items. Very nice house, the community pool and hot tub were fun, and pretty close to the beach.- Posted: 3/15/2025

Loved this home and location
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the location and the neighborhood. The pool area was great and it had a short walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend staying here. There was only one issue. The beds need changed. Everything in this place was high end, the beds need to match. I also own a VRBO type rental property and it’s sometimes not always known when issues pop up. Well I’m giving you a heads up. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We’ll definitely come back, just change the beds. Lol- Posted: 3/18/2024
Hi Brett, thank you for the wonderful review. This home is located in a great community and we are so glad you all enjoyed the home and amenities. We know that beds are a personal choice when it comes to being firm or softer so we will check with future renters as to their feelings. Thank you for letting us know your thoughts and we look forward to your return visit. Frangista Beach PropertiesReal Joy staff
