Had a wonderful vacation, great facility. The house has a few issues but the management company was amazing and addressed everything in a quick manner! We would definitely stay again!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jun 2025
Our stay at the Gray Whale was perfect! We had a large group of family from grandparents all the way down to a baby, and it worked for everyone! The location was perfectly situated right across from a beach access, and the large amount of rooms and bathrooms made it feel like we all had room to spread out. But the highlight of this house is for sure the backyard! We spent hours in the pool, playing cornhole, using the putting green and watching the NBA finals on the backyard TV. The property management company was so responsive and helpful and even stopped by to make sure we were enjoying our stay. Very friendly and easy to work with! We also loved the 1:30 check in time. We will definitely be booking this house again when we come back to Destin next summer.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2024
the home was mostly "as advertised", however it is definitely in need of some repairs and maintenance. All of the walls needed to be painted (not a big deal but it set a first impression that was backed up as we explored the home). Overall the house "looked" good, but there were a few things that really needed fixed. Most every shower had so little water pressure, you could bareley
