8.0 / 10.0Excellent·May 2025
The property was very much as advertised. Communication with the owner was efficient.Positives:-great layout with plenty of space-comfortable beds-box fans also supplied for bedrooms--nice for creating white noise at night-ample dining space-well appointed kitchen, plenty of dishes and silverware-crockpot, blender, mixer, mini-chopper, etc.-nice, quiet neighborhood (we have stayed here in another property several times)-quick walk to the Dollar General was convenient.-large walk-in closet in downstairs master-games, puzzles, books in downstairs living room closet-although we didn't need them, there were several baby items like a high chair, etc.-outdoor gas grill with outdoor seating-poolsPossible areas for improvement-upper balcony needed cleaning-I would rate the overall cleanliness as an 8/10, but admittedly I am very picky. -providing beach chairs would be a nice bonus-tennis/basketball area was being renovated and was blocked off but this information was not communicated prior to our visit-1/2 mile walk to the beach. This wasn't a problem for us as we were all adults, but it might be worth noting for those with littles or individuals with mobility issues.-Bathrooms are a little dated, but everything was in good working order with ample counter and storage space.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider staying at this property again in the future. May was a beautiful time in Destin with great weather and fewer crowds.

This property is located within walking distance to the beach and has 2 community pools. There is a private access for the beach. The beach pavillion has bathrooms, a rare find. The community is gated. The home was well stocked and comfortable. The property manager was easy to contact and communicate with.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Apr 2025
This is a very nice location. Although it is wheelchair accessible it is not ADA accessible. We always have a problem with the wheelchair accessibility. Definitely bring your own spices. The beds are comfortable and the house is clean. If you are a beach/pool person it’s perfect .
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Apr 2025
Great home and in a perfect location. The property comes with private access to the beach and is within walking distance. The centralized location puts you right in the middle of the large shopping locations. If you have a wife and daughters like me, save up because the prices are discounted everywhere. Definitely a great place to stay with your loved ones. Thank you!!!
