There are two guest bedrooms; one with a full bed and the other with 2 twin-over-twin bunks, as well as a sleeper sofa in the living room, allowing this home to comfortably accommodate 10 guests. There's plenty of room for your group to relax in the backyard around the firepit or hang out in the garage for a friendly game of cornhole or darts.

Chic Retreat is convenient for both the action in Destin and Miramar Beach!
Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both Sandestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers many great restaurants and stores.
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach Access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of the permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or another flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

This property is in a perfect location in a quiet neighborhood. Just one block from the beach and Pompano Joeās, and walking distance to other restaurants and shops. The home was clean, well equipped and well maintained. We took advantage of the golf cart that is available as well. The pictures on line are very accurate. We were pleased the moment we walked in! This is a place we would rent again.

Our group consists of two families with two kids. We travel to Destin/ Miramar Beach once a year. We loved the location and the ability to walk to several places. Highly recommend.
Be advised 100 nonrefundable damage deposit, current building construction just beyond back fence, golf cart rental not included, very limited kitchen/bathroom supplies, and community pool (no hot tub) closes at 8pm. However very short walk to miramar beach and a few restaurants. Beds slept well but be warned bottom bunks are 4inches above the ground. Garage with multiple beach extras but outdoor shower not functioning. Tv controllers are rather confusing and multiple controlers for no tvs at all? Would definitely stay again if some improvements made.
This property was absolutely amazing. My family and I was really happy with the home. The amenities were awesome but the location was top tier. We were in WALKING distance of the beach, souvenir shops and Pompano Joe's! I would definitely stay here again and would recommend this property to everyone.

It was very nice but the add was deceiving. There was nothing saying there is extra charges for the golf cart. We got there and it was a charge by the day.

We had a great stay during our travels for the holidays. The house had plenty of space for our family of six. Very close to the beach. Renting the golf cart was a bonus and made it even easier to get to the beach and explore the surrounding area. One of the things that stood out the most was working with Real Joy. Property management companies tend to get a bad reputation but Real Joy was incredible. They were very proactive, pleasant, and helpful in all of their communication. They really shined when members of my family became sick the night before we were supposed to leave. They quickly and easily helped me extend our stay so that we could have a bit more time. Weāve already booked our next stay at a Real Joy property. We would definitely choose this house again.

The home itself is quiet, spacious & comfy. The golf cart, beach gear, and access to the pool & beach were wonderful and made this the ideal stay! Beach towels would have been so helpful though. Unfortunately we encountered a few issues, such as the horrid smell throughout the home coming from the kitchen, likely the garbage disposal The hot water from the kitchen faucet had an awful odor. The hallway vent has a thick layer of dirt & the guest bath vent accumulates water that is thick & slimy when it drips on you. The garage floods when it rains, which causes a sauna type of situation later due to the heat & enclosed space. Considering all this, I feel the 4 star rating is more than fair, but this place can def be 5 star if better maintained.
3- bedroom house is beautiful. My wife and I stayed in the master bedroom with its own bathroom, my mother stayed in the guest bedroom, and three kids stayed in kids room(has two bunkbeds).
Large living room/kitchen/dining area, open floor plan, just lovely. There is a back patio, great for unwinding in the evening. There is a community pool across the street, which the kids loved, it has restrooms which requires a key. The beach is a short walk away and there is a Pompano Joeās as you enter the beach, they have some good lemonade and drinks. Quiet neighborhood, although we arrived on Sunday and left before the weekend, I would imagine it gets lively during the weekend. Nice community, went on several morning and evening walks, everyone is so nice Loved it.
The house was very clean and presented accurately. Great location. The management company should consider who the client is and where they are coming from. There should be some staples included with the home. I suggest providing at very least salt and pepper, extra toilet paper and paper towels. This is really for people that fly in from out of state understanding that we would gladly pay more for some extra conveniences. There was 1 role of paper towel and 1 roll of 1 ply toilet paper in each bathroom. For such a nice home, I would expect a little more.

Over all our stay was good. We were there when hurricane Helene was suppose to hit. I did try and contact the property before we left asking questions and no one got back to me. We did receive what seemed to be a generic text saying they were monitoring the situation, but never got a response from my message submitted over VRBO.
The house was ok, my kids didnāt seem to have very hot water in the guest shower so they used the master shower. The couch was very uncomfortable to sit on with the cushions sliding out from under you.
They are very honest with what is supplied in the VRBO. It really is just a āstarter packā this is honestly the first place Iāve been to that literally has nothing for supplies, donāt even expect salt and pepper, but they did state all this in the listing so just a heads up the dollar store is close by. The one dislike from this is there are only two dishwasher pods but they expect the dishwasher to be ran or all the dishes clean when you leave. Save some soap or buy/bring pods.
The location is great and the pool is right out front. The pool is great sized and only ever encountered one other family in it. Beach was a short walk with public access right there so that was great! Some of the beach toys/supplies in the pictures are broken but there was a small umbrella and few sand toys that worked great.
