Great for a big family in Destin.
The house was big enough for all 13 of my family members to stay and have room for the week we stayed. It's conveniently located in the back of the neighborhood and the golf cart is perfect for most places you need to go. I would definitely stay here again.

Incredibly nice accommodations
The property was nothing short of wonderful! We enjoyed are stay not only at the home but in the gated community. The location to the beach was so convenient and the Crab Trap is a great restaurant. The location of the home in that secluded lot makes it so cozy too! We will definitely stay in this home again!

Annual girls getaway
Every year we plan a girls trip to Destin and this house we stayed in was perfect for us. There were 12 of us ladies and the house was beautifully decorated very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. We love the location of the house, but it was a little bit of a walk from the house to the beach but the golf cart was a game changer. It really made all the difference.

Beautiful house
We all had so much fun! It had pretty much anything we needed! Just a few suggestions would be… have at least 1 full propane tank for grill.. there was 4 there but all were empty so we had to use stove to make our burgers and hot dogs. Pool was ‘cloudy’ half the time but did clear up after Weds when the guys treated it. We didn’t realize the construction guys would be starting their work at 7a every day but we dealt with it. Other than that, all was great and we’d definitely all stay here again in the future!

Paradise Home In Destin
This place is exactly as the picture show! Located in a beautiful gated community, house is very clean and was plenty big enough for the 10 of us! Loved the pool in the back and the golf cart made it convenient to get to close by areas such as the beaches and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again! The property owner was in contact as well making sure everything was going great. Loved this home.

Exactly what we wanted - a heated pool (that was actually heated!), a clean and well-maintained home, a six-passenger golf cart, a well- equipped kitchen, and privacy. We have rented houses at least once per year for over a decade and this house is one of the best!

Great Vacation Get Away
The home is very secluded in the back corner of the neighborhood. Property was very clean and accomodating. We had 3 families in the home and it was spacious enough for all of us. We also have a child in a wheelchair and the 1st floor and back pool area was very accomodating for her. The golfcart was perfect for getting to the beach quickly, access to the beach was great.

Family vacation totalling 15 people, was secluded which we liked in the neighborhood, perfect size for kids and adults. Only recommendation is to add another refrigerator and checkin needs to be 4pm at the latest. 5pm is a late time when traveling in.

Super nice and super close to the beach
This was a great property. It was impeccably clean. The rooms were large and all of them pretty much had their own full size bathroom. You never felt cramped or on top of one another. The pool was an amazing amenity that really made the trip even more amazing. I mean who doesn’t want to be swimming in a pool at the beach with palm trees during Christmas. House listing is as exactly as described!!!
