Impeccable home two blocks from the beach

This property was perfect for a trip to the beach among friends. We had lots of space to spread out across floors, plenty of bathrooms, and the home was comfortable and well stocked. Loved the pool and the quick walk to the beach — it was truly not more than 1.5 blocks away. The manager was great with our pre-trip questions and we had no issues on the trip.

Great House, great neighborhood, close to beach!

We had a wonderful stay at this house in March. First floor bedroom was perfect for my MIL. Backyard was great with the heated pool and plenty of space. The neighborhood is amazing, very quiet and peaceful with quite a few actual Florida residents. It has easy access to the beach, just a five minute walk, as well as easy drive to lots of restaurants and shopping. We loved our stay here and would def stay again. We only had 5 people in the house, and just used the first and second floors. It says it sleeps 18, and I’m sure that it does, although the third floor seems like it would be hot in the middle of summer.

Nice home and great location

Had a family vacation here, the house was very nice and spacious. The pool and all the paml trees in the back made for a great esacpe. House was clean and well maintained. The location was great, quick walk to the beach, access to lots of shopping, and quick drive to anywhere in Destin. The beach chair inclusion was amazing. Was also nice they had a cart and additional beach chairs. Kitchen was well stock with equipment and utensils. You gets starters on soap, paper towels, trash bags, dish soap, etc. All in all a great experience. Only downside was the wifi, it was down 75% of the time and mgmt company couldn't figure out why.

Nice place for big group

We had nice time off, the place is spacious for group of people 20 people. Property was clean upon arrival. Only issue we had was as soon as we entered the property the fire alarm went off and it took 45 min for the maintenance person to come and fix it. Also love rentals were NOT accommodative for 1 hr early check in.

Hi Yaseen- Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are pleased to learn that your family enjoyed their stay. However, we are sorry that your experience at the home did not meet your or our expectations. We are sorry that one of the alarms went off and are glad we could replace it within a few minutes. We could not have you enter early so that cleaners and the maintenance staff could finish all of their work at the home. This was communicated to you in the description and in all correspondence so we are not sure why that became an issue for you. Nevertheless, we thank you for providing us with feedback as we are working to make improvements to provide an exceptional experience to our guests. We have addressed your concerns with our teams and do hope for the opportunity to welcome you back again for an improved experience.
