This house is very spacious and beautiful! Located in a quiet cul de sac in a beautiful neighborhood! Just me, my husband and our two dogs stayed, and it was perfect! The only recommendation would be to increase the heat of the pool; it was a bit chilly!
Great house that allowed for multiple families to come together in living room kitchen and also have own space. Two golf carts made getting to beach easy . No better beach than Destin!
This was easy check in and we got early check in. The house is beautiful . There are a few small things that need fixed but overall wonderful stay. The beds were comfortable and it was very clean . The 2 golf carts were such a bonus we got a lot of use out of them. The neighborhood was beautiful . The pool was nice and the space was perfect for our family of 8. We brought my grandpa on his 90th birthday. Would deff stay again
Everything was fantastic, the rental company was very helpful and quick to respond to any need. We will definitely be staying with them in the future. We were in the middle of a hurricane and they were right there with us! We can’t thank them enough for a great vacation
The house was wonderful and roomy for our very large group, we had room to spread out and not be on top of each other. Our only disappointment is that the pool wasn’t clean or clear.
Destin couldn’t get any better. Great place to be on vacation.

Our family vacation in Destin East was a huge hit with the entire family! Our proximity to the beach, the spacious living areas and built in pool were fabulous! We were slightly disappointed in the “tired” conditions in the property, not all of appliances worked properly and furniture was in less than ideal condition.

The property was very spacious. Easily accommodated 11 adults and 1 one child. Enjoyed the private pool. The six and four passenger golf cart made it extremely easy to get to the beach. I would definitely return.

Great indoor and outdoor spaces, private, quite. Only suggestion, with capacity for occupancy would be beneficial to have some additional cookware, including a few different size pans, griddle for breakfast, etc

The property was just as pictured (except the size of the pool is a bit tinier than it looks) Very clean.
There was plenty of room for all eleven of us! Plenty of sleeping space. And plenty of room to get to yourself when needed.
The kitchen could use a bit of updating on items, but it was still great!
We enjoyed our week, just wished we had been able to book longer!

Nice house, big open concept suited for a large family group. Private pool was a plus for the kids. We wish it had been closer to beach but golf carts were helpful for carrying everyone to the beach. Overall we had a great time and would recommend to others if you have a large group and don't mind a short ride to the beach.

Our stay was amazing! We had 15 people total- 7 of which were children. The home itself had more space than expected and everyone was surprised at area of individual space/rooms/beds. However the best part was that there was large areas where we all could gather and spend time together. The house was located in a cul de sac on a quiet street. It was not far from the beach or from our favorite restaurant. The golf carts were great and provided a faster/easier/more fun way to get around.
