About this house rental
Painted Porch -
Charming and picturesque – isn’t that the dream when it comes to finding the best beach vacation home? You get all that and more at Painted Porch, a cute vacation cottage in Destin’s quiet neighborhood of Frangista Beach. The rental home has three bedrooms and two baths, and it can host up to seven visitors. Other features include cozy living space, a chic kitchen, a private pool, and four complimentary bicycles. It is only a few blocks from the beach, ensuring guests can access those blue-green waves all day, every day!
A paver drive greets vacationers upon arrival, and surrounding palm trees and other tropical flora set the vacation mood. Step through the vibrant turquoise door to check out your temporary coastal abode. Honey-toned wood floors extend throughout the open living area, which boasts a vintage modern vibe. A dark wraparound couch and brightly colored armchair make up a casual seating ensemble that faces a wall-mounted flatscreen TV. The living room also has a gray-and-white patterned rug, round coffee table, distressed entertainment cabinet, and colorful décor. The kitchen/dining room combo is adjacent the living area. White tile flooring, custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and stainless-steel appliances create an open and welcoming space. An elegant kitchen island with four raised chairs doubles as the dining table. It is perfect for everything from a simple breakfast to beachy appetizers to a formal dinner. From the kitchen, guests can access a private patio, which includes a pool, lounge chairs, an outdoor dining set with umbrella, and a BBQ grill. When you’re not at the beach, chances are you’ll enjoy the quiet seclusion that this peaceful porch area has to offer!

My hubby and I stayed here for a week and it was awesome! The ocean was really rough so it was so nice to have a private pool to relax in since we couldn't swim much at the beach. The house is older and has a very cutesy vintage beach vibe. The bed in the main bedroom was so comfortable!! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals at home. Everything was very clean including the pool! We will definitely stay here again! The beach access was a little confusing despite them including a picture of it because there were othere access doors that looked like the one we were supposed to use. Turns out we were using the wrong one. The beach is a little bit of trek but after driving for 7 hours to get there, a few blocks to walk isn't a deal breaker. Plenty of good restaurants in the area and winn dixie was about a 5 minute drive. The area was so beautiful and very quiet. Everyone is in bed by 10pm so no late night craziness. I highly recommend this house!!! My one and only complaint is it would be nice if there was a little more privacy around the pool area. Like maybe some bigger trees or bushes. Everyone walking by could see in the pool and we would have preferred a little more privacy. Other than that this place was perfect for us and we loved it!

Very nice place for small family getaway. Place is small so wouldn’t recommend more that just one nuclear family. We have 2 smaller kids so it worked well for us. Older place but the kitchen looks to have been recently updated. Pool is nice and appears relatively new. Excellent location to the beach which is just a short walk away. Not a bunch of bells and whistles but a good place for family getaway

The pool was the best feature of this property. However, the patio was lacking....table only provided seating for 4,(we had 6) umbrella so small that it didn't even provide shade for the entire table...for the size of the patio it would have been nice to have 2 large umbrellas. Would also have been nice to have outdoor lighting for the patio/pool area for the evening. Minimal beach amenities,..2 beach chairs provided. Kitchen needs to be inventoried.... only 6 forks and fry pans so scratched that Teflon coating peeling. Communication with office provided no follow up....called because beach code was inaccurate and beach wrist bands were not provided. We were given the new code which did work and told the wrist bands would be dropped off that evening. They were not so we called again the next day, different person said they would be dropped off that day but we really didn't need them. They were never dropped off and luckily we did not need them. However, it did make us wonder what kind of response we would have gotten if we really did have a problem! Upon checkout we were told to leave the wristbands on the counter or we would be charged. We explained we had never received wristbands. We ended up not being charged. To sum up, nothing special about this property....although it could be!
