Area Attractions:

It's a terrific residential area, yet close to restaurants and activities in Destin. 

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!

Everything was great with the unit. Well equipped, updated and clean. The only thing I would suggest is to be more clear with the available golf cart. Read very carefully in the small print about the $100/ day fee.

Asked for extra towels and received them right away. They are really quick on getting back to you no matter what time you message them. The house is so beautiful just like the pictures and really clean. The pool was really clean and nice. The house has a wagon and beach chairs/beach umbrella with toys which was so convenient for our toddlers since we flew in. Definitely recommend!!!!!

This place is spot on! Great location, just a short walk to the beach! The condo was very nice and easy to access.
Our only concern was the main door which was really hard to shut/lock. Also, it would have been very convenient to use the golf cart that was in the garage but was not allowed (even if it’s optional with additional charge).
The instructions were very clear for check-in/check-out, and the description was very accurate. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in the Destin area.
