An easy walk along the beach will take you to the jetties, where the Gulf of Mexico and Destin Harbor meet, a spot well-known for great snorkeling and fishing. Here you can also watch boats going out deep sea fishing and returning from the gulf to the harbor.
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.

Great location and property
My husband and I spent a week in late October at Magnolia house. It had everything we needed, the view off the back deck was fantastic, and it's a really quick walk to the beach. Located in a gated community that is beautiful, quiet and has multiple options for pools and hot tubs. The beach service was so nice to have included - note that it runs through Oct. 31. My only feedback is that it's managed by RealJoy properties and they do not respond to any messages through the VRBO app. I found it frustrating not to be able to contact them through typical methods. And when I did finally decide to email them asking about the beach chair setup I got a run around and no clear answers, including them giving me the phone number to call the beach service directly (who told me to check with RealJoy). Overall, would definitely recommend but just know that communication could leave you frustrated depending on what you need.- Posted: 11/1/2024
Jennifer, Thank you for the 5-star review. We’re glad you had everything you needed and enjoyed the gated community. You should have gotten an email prior to your arrival with an invitation to our guest portal. The guest portal is where you can find all the information you need for your stay, including our direct line and after hours contact information. We hope you’ll visit us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.Real Joy staff

Exceptional
It was a perfect getaway vacation for the family. The apartment was comfortable beautifully decorated, and functional to the dot! Excellent location for us that had planned to be at a walking distance to the beach and to the best beach for a family with small children. Cannot forget the price! Absolutely fantastic deal, great value!! First time at Destin, not the last, will be back for sure and Magnolia House, same apartment by RealJoy Vacation will be our first choice! Coffee filters for the machine!! There was none!! Lol- Posted: 10/11/2024

Wonderful beach condo
Just an absolutely lovely condo. Five minute walk from an amazing white sand beach. The condo was clean and had everything we wanted. A nice little bonus that we did not expect were the extra beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, pool noodles, and bodyboards that were available for use. The added bonus of beach chairs and an umbrella that was already set up and free to utilize at the beach was amazing. The pool at the facility was very nice. Perfect place to hang out. The views from the balcony were incredible. We had internet issues and management got back to us right away and fixed the issue. I recommend this place to anyone who wants a relaxing vacation in Destin.- Posted: 8/11/2024
