October Fall Get a Way

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was spacious with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. Some suggestions would be that we needed many more beach towels for the number we had. 7 towels for 14 people was not adequate. We would also suggest having laundry baskets in all of the bedrooms.

Great Location!

The house was very nice and spacious. We had 12 people comfortably. Kitchen was stocked with plenty of cookware. Golf cart was a great addition to get around! The pool though is definitely smaller than ideal. Would definitely stay here again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed out stay with Francis’s beach properties. The home was nice and a quick golf cart ride from beach access. We enjoyed spending time by the pool and hanging out on the large porch. Maintenance was easy to contact and quick to respond to the few issues we did come across.

Family vacation

The home is nice, the living space is small for the amount this home can accommodate. The kitchen needs stocked with more silverware to accommodate a large crowd. The skillets could use a replacement. I would recommend having some additional chairs on porch that are appropriate for senior citizens. We did enjoy the swing in the mornings and evenings. Thank you for sharing your home, it is in a quiet neighborhood.

Family Vacation

Overall we loved the home, location, and the communication. I do wish that things in the kitchen could be left for others to enjoy. Seasoning, non parishable food items especially, etc. We were able to disperse to neighbors, just hard to throwing a lot of things away because you’re flying! I do highly recommend and we will look into this rental in the future.

The pool was much smaller than the picture and also the main living room was too small for our group, 3 people had to sit at the dining table to interact with everyone.It was a great location and felt safe there. It was clean and overall a fantastic trip.

Family Time

The best part of this vacation was down time with the family. We enjoyed the beach during the days and game night in the evening. There was 14 of us and there was plenty of room. The little ones loved the pool in the evenings. I loved the double wrap around deck. I was impressed at how well the kitchen had everything we needed from utensils to pots and pans The beds were very comfortable. I woke up feeling refreshed every morning. The only thing that I would add to this stay would be rugs in front of the doors coming from outside to keep the floors from getting messy. We will definitely be back !!

Destin Vacation House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property is the best house by far in Destin. Location only about a block walk to the beach. Three story hose has plenty of room for families. Fenced in yard for those traveling with their fur babies. Nice private pool with a golf cart to make trips to the beach easy. We stayed in master bedroom on main floor, with my only complaint there was no dresser for your clothes, just a small closet. Nightstands were packed full of old computer printers, modems, board games and general junk, so no space for additional storage in either of those. Overall though, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this house for the amenities offered and especially for families traveling with pets. Beautiful house with great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the house was exactly what we were looking for , space and closeness to the beach. However when paying 8k for a place to stay you do expect it to be clean. No paint peeling on the ceilings. No rusted floor vents. Shower heads to be working completely. Bath tubs you can stand on without the fear of getting cut. Floors and walls dirty. A comfortable bed. The entire house smelling of mold and mildew and the vents especially in the in law suit having mold pouring out of them. The carpet looked filthy. The golf cart charged was barely hanging on it was melted to the extension cord and frayed. We went and bought a new charger and extension cord. And the entire house just seemed very outdated. This is our fourth year to Destin and was definitely disappointed in the conditions of the house.

Close to the beach, shopping, grocery stores, etc. We would definitely stay in this home again. Dealing with Frangista Beach Properties was wonderful. They communicated with us about the trash pickups, send us reminders about various things and when we had a small issue, we were able to talk to them to solve the issue.

Great location for our family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, great stay in this comfortable, cozy, casual beach house. Just enough room for our family vacation. Love the trees and shrubs around the porch for privacy, the golf cart and the location were perfect. Splash pool was a nice addition as well. If bikes were included it would have been a major plus, but my only real complaint would be the outdoor patio furniture is is need of upgrades. Most of the chairs are broken, or about to break. And the ones that are not broken are not comfortable at all. Would have been nice to have an outdoor sofa to curl up on porch and some nicer loungers by the pool. Otherwise enjoyed our stay here and would probably stay again.

Trip of memories

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Best rental house ever! Everything you could want or need. It has 2 private units besides the house which have 4 bedrooms & 4 bathrooms. It is amazing, we enjoyed gathering on the wrap around porch, sitting in the rocking chairs. It is very private & perfect location. My grandson’s favorite was riding the gulf cart (beep-beep to him lol). This place was amazing & we made the most beautiful memories on this trip for my daughter had a destination wedding during our stay & Hector was amazing! As was the pool man & everyone else at Frangista Beach properties. Truly top notch service! They even showed up to pull our trash cans to the curb. Next time I visit Destin I will definitely stay with Frangista Beach properties. Thank you for the great customer service!

Excellent experience

First family vacation we've been on in 10yrs this rental was perfect for the 11 of us we each had our own space but still plenty of room for all of us to be together. The house was very well located as far as access to the beach and numerous shopping locations along with many mini golf courses and arcades. Plenty of places to eat out within the range of the golf cart that's included with the property so that made it really nice. I would highly recommend this property and rental company to anyone looking my family will definitely be booking threw them again.

Fabulous place

The house was amazing. We found the property to be exactly as described and actually even better. There is a lot of room so families can be together or not. It can be your choice. We traveled with an 8 month old so the bonus room was perfect for allowing her to sleep in a quiet space. The pool area is small but perfect for the 9 of us. The walk to the beach is very short. It is only a block away. However, there is also a 6 person golf cart that we used daily! We used it for grocery runs, trips to the beach, going out to eat and shopping of course! Overall, i would highly recommend this property. The Frangista Beach folks contacted us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Check in and check out could not have been easier!

Perfect Vacation

The ease of booking and the communication from the property manager was exceptional. Everything was as described in the listing. The house furnishings were very nice and it was well stocked. There were 9 in our party and we had more then enough room. The golf cart was a nice addition. It looked new, well kept and just what we needed to haul our things to the beach. We would definitely consider renting this property again in the future.
