This 4-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront retreat blends laid-back coastal charm with adventure-filled amenities, offering the perfect setting for families, friends, and even your furry companions.

If you haven't been to Holiday Isle, you're in for a treat. It's a serene, little oasis in the middle of Destin, with 2 and a half miles of paved trails for walking and biking, surrounded by quiet neighborhoods perfect for exploring on a bike. It's just minutes away from restaurants, shopping, boat docks, fishing, golf, and amusements. Once you stay in Holiday Isle, you'll want to come back year after year!

We enjoyed our stay here. They have a nice new big sectional couch that is not in the photos that was a pleasant surprise. Close to the beach & loved that it was in the harbor. There is a water taxi that will come pick you up from dock & take you to boardwalk. We rented fishing poles and the kids even caught some fish off of the dock! House was clean and perfect for what we needed. One thing to note, the patio doors are hurricane grade, so they are really hard to open. I could see it being an issue for maybe an elderly person. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again!- Reviewed On: 6/19/2026
Hello Jenna, thank you for the lovely review. I’m glad Yellow Fin Place was a good fit and that the new sectional was a pleasant surprise. It’s great the harbor location, water taxi, and dock fishing were highlights, and that the house was clean for your stay. Thanks for the note about the hurricane-grade patio doors — we’ll add a listing note and review options to make them easier for guests to operate. We’d love to host you again!
