This was a lovely experience. It was a home away from home. Plenty dishes, pots, pans cutlery. Everything we needed to eat and cook at home. Coffee was a breeze w ease of using Keurig. Thanks for making this stay enjoyable.
Mattresses, couches, AC, water pressure, location, all great! Cleanliness needs some attention. Floors were super sandy, dead bugs, and tons of dust bunnies. Lots of dust build up on the curtains and ceiling fans, messed with our allergies. Ceiling fans were so wobbly and loud we didn’t feel safe turning them on. Fridge door doesn’t open/close properly.
Easy and close walk to the beach and pet friendly. Well lite parking lot. Cozy place to stay and quiet. Lots of traffic on the road and sidewalk but expected it. Enjoyed our stay. Thanks for allowing pets.
My daughter and I enjoyed our stay here.,The condo was clean and comfortable. It was nice to be able to have my dog with us. Close to the pool and the beach. This was my second time staying at Maravilla and I will return again. Check in and out very simple!
It was a wonderful week! We absolutely love staying here! Marti is an awesome host! Quick response with any questions! Just a few footsteps away from the crosswalk to the most beautiful beach! Can’t wait to come back, definitely recommend!!
You truly can’t beat the location—just steps from the beach. The first-floor unit was perfect, especially for our pup, making everything so easy and convenient. The AC kept us cool and comfortable, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent. Marti was a wonderful host with great communication and quick responses throughout our stay. This was our second time staying at Maravilla, and we already know it won’t be our last. We love it here!
Perfect location and amenities! We enjoyed the beach and the pools. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen was great for morning/lunch meals. Would come back!!!!
We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed our week! Loved how you could walk out the patio door and be on the beach in minutes! Marti and David were terrific hosts and we hope to come back next year. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by Marti Swift
My family and I visited Destin in 2001 and fell in love with the white sandy beaches. Maravilla has been a tradition of our family for years. The rental busines has been a true blessing to each of us. It has allowed me to be a 'work at home' mom while raising our two kids and has given me the opportunity to meet many wonderful families from all over the United States.
We purchased our properties with two non-negotiable factors in mind: 1) Views! We would not compromise on being able to see the emerald waters of the gulf while relaxing on our balcony. We are from Kentucky and our vacations are all about seeing and enjoying the water. 2)Proximity to the beach and pool. As a family with young kids we wanted to be quick to and from our condo to the sand. Our goal was always less than a minute for either and we purchased our condo's accordingly.
As a result, our family enjoys truly relaxing vacations taking in the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. Regardless of where we are, the heart of Destin or Scenic Gulf Drive, our views don't change..the famous emerald water is only a glance away! Our family condo business is dear to us. We recognize how blessed we are and we cherish the memories!
Why they chose this property
Purchasing a vacation home within driving distance to our home was important to us. It allows us to vacation often in our home away from home. The Gulf Coast's emerald waters were like no other place we had ever seen. The natural beauty of the beaches were the 'icing on the cake' for our purchase of our vacation home.
What makes this property unique
Our kids have grown up at Maravilla. Our daughter learned to swim in the pool there. We have since purchased other properties as investiments. Maravilla remains our favorite. Our children will not go anywhere else. The property offers great 'kids friendly' playing spaces. Maravilla's neighborhood community is perfect for riding bikes, skating, playing tag, getting a wiffle ball game up and just doing things kids love to do. Many complexes today only offer a parking lot and a beach to play on. We LOVE Maravilla!
