About this property
Latitude! New! 8 Bed! Beach!
Latitude is a designer 8 bedroom home less than two blocks from Destin's newest beach access. Pool. Free golf cart.
7 king suites with private baths (including three on the first floor) plus 1 bunk room with private bath create many options for multiple families or groups.
Includes free 6 seater golf cart, 2 paddleboards and a full-sized (seasonally heated between October 1 and April 30) pool.
Central to Destin’s best shopping, dining, and entertainment
Welcome to Latitude!
Built in 2022 and located less than a 2 blocks from the Destin’s famous beach, Latitude offers super-close access to the Gulf, private (seasonally heated between October 1 and April 30) pool and 8 spacious, designer-curated, beachy-farmhouse bedrooms.
Ready to hit the waves? Enjoy the short stroll to any of the six neighborhood beaches (that are far less crowded than our large public beaches). Or load up your cooler and beach toys in Latitude’s complementary 2022 six seater golf cart to visit any of the beaches, restaurants, shopping, and activities that are accessible from Latitude’s prime location along the Destin’s famous Scenic Gulf Drive.
Not a worn out rental. Latitude features quartz counters, stainless appliances, designer furnishings, and premium mattresses... all in a fun, beachy-farmhouse style!
Latitude offers three first floor king suites with private baths (ideal for mobility challenged Guests); four 2nd floor king suites with private full baths, one and a 2nd floor bunk room that sleeps 6. That’s a massive sleeping capacity of 20, not including sofas.
Need some adult conversation or separate living spaces for multiple families? Latitude offers both a first and second floor living space (each with its own 65” smart TV) to give you plenty of options for elbow room.
No need to drain your wallet on toy rentals. Latitude includes 2 paddleboards, and a brand new 6 seater golf cart to help make lifelong memories. And when you are ready to return home, cool off in Latitude’s pool. Afterward, grill your fresh caught seafood in Latitude’s propane grill.
Hate traffic? Us, too! No worries with Latitude. Latitude’s less-crowded community beaches are only a 3 minute walk down the sidewalk; and literally seconds away using Latitude’s included golf cart.
Latitude is also less than 3 minute golf cart ride to our public regional beach access points (yep, the huge white beach accesses that you see in brochures); less than a mile from Destin Commons (our premiere shopping, entertainment and dining complex); only minutes away from our area's best oceanfront dining, grocery stores and more.
This property will certainly book soon! Don’t settle for a blah-blah-bland rental! Reserve your preferred dates for one-of-a-kind Latitude before it’s too late!

We had a fantastic girl's weekend staying at this rental property. Spacious and clean, we had no complaints! The golf was an added perk that was great for getting to the beach.

Thank you for the 5 star review of Latitude, Margot! We're happy to hear that you and your group enjoyed the spacious layout and included golf cart! We'd love to welcome you back to the Emerald Coast anytime!
Absolutely loved the house. Thoughtfully decorated, beds were plenty comfortable! Pictures are accurately representative of the space. Plenty of space for everybody and the heated pool was appreciated as it was chilly in early November. House location to everything you could possibly need is within a few miles. Getting beignets and coffee from Beignets and Brew is a must. We went back every day and even ordered them to be delivered from uber eats. that's how good those turtle beignets are!

Great property, included heated pool and golf cart are a plus! Rooms and common areas are great. Fridge space is limited so would suggest having large coolers for drinks during the stay.

Thank you for the 5 star review of Latitude, Chereka! We're happy to hear that you found the house wonderful and spacious! We'd love to welcome you back to the Emerald Coast anytime!
With every room having it's own bathroom, this was the perfect option for a small company retreat. The living space is big and open, and the pool out back was perfect for the evenings. There is an area of public beach within walking distance (4 or so blocks), and while it is small, if you go early, you can easily get space. It was easy and super fast to get approval for the golf cart rental with the property, so we used it to shuttle families back and forth between the beach.

Seemed like the house only had a quick wipe down cleaning. Floors were very dirty and disgusting you couldn’t walk around without shoes on. Showers had piles of sand in them. Several showers also did not drain and almost overflowed.

Thank you for the review of Azure! We're surprised to hear about the cleaning issues, as our cleaners normally receive glowing 5 star reviews. We wish you would have said something during your stay, as we would have been happy to resolve the issue immediately. In the end, thank you for the 8/10 review. We wish you the best!
There were a few minor issues with plumbing but other than that the property is really nice. It is decorated very well. The location is very convenient. The amenities were good and only a block or two from the ocean.

Review for 4541 Luke Avenue, Destin, FLTravel Dates: 11/13–11/17 Our group of 10 arrived early due to travel disruptions caused by the government shutdown affecting international airports. Although the home was unoccupied, the host was not accommodating of an early check-in, leaving us to walk around town for several hours with all of our luggage. While we understand that early check-ins aren’t always possible, the lack of flexibility—especially given the circumstances and the home’s vacant status—was disappointing.Unfortunately, the condition of the house upon check-in was an even bigger concern. The property had not been properly cleaned from the previous guests. The floor in front of the refrigerator had caked-on dirt, the inside of the garbage can lid was visibly dirty, and multiple surfaces—tables, furniture, and light fixtures—had thick layers of dust. We documented the issues and provided photos to the host immediately upon arrival.While the location was convenient for our stay, the lack of cleanliness and initial inflexibility created a frustrating start to our trip. We hope the host addresses these concerns for future guests.
The home comfortably fit our group of 9 with bedrooms and bathrooms to spare! The beds were so comfortable! The golf cart and bikes were an excellent bonus! The grill, washer and dryer plus dishwasher were great to have! The decor in the house was very nice all around. Plenty of seating inside and out. However, the large couch was not very comfortable for older adults but the kids liked it. The chandelier over the kitchen island was very dusty, but everything else seemed clean. Vinyl foors in high traffic areas may not hold up longterm as there seems to be issues starting already. A step light on the back patio could help at night when you don't want to turn on the overhead lights to attract bugs. This could help avoid someone missing the step and falling off the patio. Sprinklers cane on several times while we were in the pool, so could maybe change the schedule to early morning or late night. Loved the house and our stay!!
