The amenities at the house were amazing and Dana was very helpful and responsive. The heated pool was delightful in the 70 degree weather. Was a lovely place to spend Christmas together as a family!
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
This property was absolutely beautiful and beautifully decorated, with all the comforts of home — truly perfect for our large family of 9 adults and 11 children (all 9 years old and younger). With three spacious floors, everyone had plenty of room to relax, unwind, and take care of their families comfortably.One of the biggest hits was the pool table, which provided endless hours of fun and laughter for all ages. The home was stocked with thoughtful extras that made a big difference — like two ice machines, a waffle maker, and a trash compactor. Little conveniences like these added so much to our stay.We especially appreciated how well-equipped the house was: from spices and beach towels to pool and beach toys, it saved us a ton of packing space. The owners also provided a generous supply of essentials (toilet paper, paper towels, and cleaning products) that helped us settle in without having to run to the store immediately.A huge highlight was the setup at the beach — having 8 chairs and 4 umbrellas waiting for us each day was an incredible perk and made beach time so easy and enjoyable. While we had a golf cart, the walk to the beach was short and easy as well.And the pool — absolutely spectacular! It was large, clean, and perfect for both the kids and adults to enjoy together.Great communication with the owners. After 8 years of traveling to the Destin area, this property is hands down our favorite. We can’t say enough good things and would be thrilled to return!

We have a close group of military friends that we do a reunion with. It was a great stay, even more special because some long time friends got engaged on our trip. It is a beautiful house and Dana and TJ are great host. Kind and attentive. Definitely planning a reurn visit!

Beautiful, large house. Quiet, convenient location. Very short walk to beach. 8 chairs/4 umbrellas on beach a big bonus. Plenty of parking. We are looking forward to returning next year.
