My family and I had such a wonderful time at this lovely beach house. Everything was so well done and we had everything we needed for the best beach vacation. We can’t wait to come back soon!!
My husband and I, and our three girls stayed for four nights. Everything was exactly as described!! The location was perfect! Close proximity to restaurants and we were just steps from the beach. Very spacious and clean. The host had every amenity possible. They provided everything to make our visit to the beach perfect! We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.
This was a beautiful, truly beachfront property with easy access, plenty of parking, trash service, and ample sleeping space. The host was very responsive and helpful. Our family had our best beach stay yet thanks to this location and property.
Great property and location, you are waking up and see the ocean. Property is very clean, that is very important for me, especially floors, your white socks and kids feet stays clean. Thank you, we will definitely come back.
This was a beautiful property in a beautiful location. We had a slight hiccup at check in which we were able to resolve within a few minutes of contacting the hosts. The Hosts were responsive especially considering it was a holiday weekend. Unfortunately we experienced some air conditioning issues during our stay which made sleeping on the lower level uncomfortable. Again, the hosts were responsive, they scheduled a tech to evaluate the system but the air never really seemed to work correctly. The propane tanks for the grill were empty upon arrival which was a little inconvenient but the hosts offered to reimburse for the refill. This property is well equipped with plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, kayaks and Stand up paddle boards. It has a wonderful patio area and 2 very nice decks with amazing views of the emerald gulf. Had it not been for the air conditioning issues this would have been a 5 star, excellent stay.
The communication is excellent. The place has plenty of room and was very comfortable. My husband and I, my three kids and their spouses, and a 3 month old baby stayed in The Turtle House. We all enjoyed are stay. I would definitely recommend this place.
The beach front property was very clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was provided on site. I would highly recommend this property for a worry free vacation.
Everything you would want for vacation. Beach is so close. Great paddle board and kayaks. Kitchen had the things needed for stay and view was awesome from master bedroom. Would definitely stay here again.
When the description says just bring yourself and clothes BELIEVE it. This home has everything you can think of. Including a functioning clean grill. The beds were great, the furniture was comfortable, anything you can think of in the kitchen. Very clean , with amazing views of the gulf. Communication with the owners, and house keeping was easy. Can’t wait till next time. Will visit again!
Very clean and updated townhouse. Everything you would ever need is provided in the house and for the beach. Also great location. We loved being right on the beach. We want to stay here again!

Thanks, we love our location as well and look forward to hosting you again.
The Sea Turtle house is FABULOUS!You can’t get any closer to the beach!!! The “strip” that it is on is calm, not a lot of traffic. Close to restaurants and minutes from beautiful Destin. The inside of the house is furnished with just about anything that you will need, and beautifully decorated. Outside, the decks are amazing, there are outdoor games, beach chairs, umbrellas, noodles, sand toys, etc. On a scale of 1-5, I rate it a 10 !! Definitely will stay here again.
This property was beautiful. Our family had an amazing time. The short walk to the beach was great and so easy with our little ones. Definitely recommend

About the host
Hosted by Lagenia Clark
Hi! We’re Dave and Lagenia, a husband-and-wife team based in Houston, TX. We met while serving in the U.S. Army, got engaged on our second date, and have been married for over 30 years. We have three amazing adult children who still keep life fun and full.
We both love to travel—I’ve been to 41 countries and Dave has been to 39 (yes, we’re a little competitive!). And after visiting beaches around the world, we can honestly say none compare to the one in our own backyard.
I'm originally from Radcliff, Kentucky, and Dave is from Rockville, Maryland. I graduated from Vanderbilt University, and Dave is a proud Citadel alum. Today, Dave works in the travel industry, and I work in franchising—so hospitality is truly close to both of our hearts.
We fell in love with Okaloosa Island while visiting friends and knew instantly it was the perfect place to create a beach retreat for our family. Now, we’re thrilled to share it with you! Whether you’re coming to relax, explore, or make memories with loved ones, we hope you feel right at home at the Sea Turtle House.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always happy to help before or during your stay!
Why they chose this property
🏖 Why We Chose This Neighborhood + Local Attractions We fell in love with Okaloosa Island after visiting friends nearby—it’s the perfect blend of peaceful, family-friendly beaches and exciting nearby attractions. The beach right outside our home is stunning, but there's so much more to explore:
🚗 Distance 🌟 Attraction 💬 Why We Love It 2 mi The Boardwalk & Island Pier Beachfront restaurants, shops, and free summer fireworks every Wednesday—watch right from our deck! 5 min Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park Dolphin shows, sea lion exhibits, and a sea turtle rescue center—great for all ages. 5 min Wild Willy’s Adventure Zone Arcade, ropes course, mini-golf, laser tag, and more—perfect for kids (and kids at heart). 10 min Emerald Coast Science Center Hands-on exhibits for kids and curious minds—ideal for rainy days. 10–15 min (by boat) Crab Island Destin's famous shallow water sandbar party—rent a boat or book a shuttle for floating fun, food, and music. 15 min Destin Harbor Charter boats, dolphin tours, parasailing, and waterfront dining—close enough for a fun day trip. 15 min Air Force Armament Museum Free admission to an impressive collection of historic aircraft, missiles, and military exhibits—perfect for aviation lovers and curious kids.
Whether you're planning to unwind, explore, or entertain the whole family, this area offers the best of the Emerald Coast—without the crowds. That’s why we chose to call this special spot home—and we’re so excited to share it with you!
What makes this property unique
🐢 What Makes The Sea Turtle House Special Our home was designed to bring the beach to you—from sunrise to sunset! As a corner unit, you'll enjoy unobstructed ocean views from every level, with triple sliding glass doors and floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and primary bedroom.
We love spending time on our two spacious balconies and ground-level patio, all with breathtaking views of the Gulf. Whether you're sipping coffee at sunrise or enjoying a cocktail at sunset, there's no better place to relax.
And in the summer (from Memorial Day to Labor Day), don’t miss the Wednesday night fireworks from the pier, just 2 miles east—you’ll have front-row seats right from our decks and windows on the 2nd and 3rd levels.
It’s these little moments—paired with the space, views, and comfort—that make Sea Turtle House so special.
