Area Attractions:  

Several outstanding restaurants are within walking distance, including one of the most highly regarded in Destin, 'The 790 Cafe' located at The Inn at Crystal Beach and 'Beachwalk Cafe', rated one of Destin's best by Florida Trend Magazine.

Pointe of View is also just a few minutes' drive from all Destin has to offer, including go-kart rentals, dolphin cruises, charter fishing, parasailing, Big Kahuna's Water Park, The Track Family Fun Center, and the Silver Sands Outlet Mall.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop. 

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Exactly what we were looking for
The location and layout were perfect for the team retreat we had planned. We were right on the beach and found everything to be relaxing. The property managers were incredibly responsive and checked in on us regularly. We would consider staying here again; we talked about coming with kids, but there were no tubs, so that was our only concern, although I have a feeling the kids would get through it with a smile.

Excellent stay
No issues what so ever. Everything was as stated in add. My opinion only is public access adjacent makes for it to be crowded in front of the house. However I knew that going in. Thank you for a wonderful trip for my group who has fished in the rodeo for over 20 years.

You cannot beat this location. It was the perfect venue for us to spend time with our adult children. The five bedrooms with five baths combined with perfect access to the beach makes this an ideal rental.

Beautiful Place!
The location has a beautiful beach view and is in a nice area of town! The house has lots of space and great sleeping arrangements to accommodate a multi-family vacation. The property management staff was friendly and easy to contact for assistance. They resolved issues quickly. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay there again!! As others noted, an area for improvement is the parking. Only 3 spaces are available. An idea for improvement would be for the management company to have pre-planned offsite parking arrangements available to guest. One other area I recommend to improve is the beach chair service. It was first come first serve, and even when arriving early, on multiple days, all the other front row chairs were already reserved for others. It would be great if the unit had pre-reserved front row chairs for each day. Other than that, all was great!!

We will stay here again!
We just rented this place over the spring break with family and friends. There are total of 17 of us or 4 families, and everyone enjoyed this location, cleanliness and direct access to the beach. There are a lot of very good place to eat out, Publix grocery store is close by and seafood market is about 10 minutes drive where you can get fresh oysters, fish and shrimps. We grilled them by the grill provided outside. Managed to park 4 cars (3 small/medium sized SUVs and 1 Ford Expedition) :-). Note that the garage is tight. There is parking by the street but easily gets filled up and you can’t park it overnight. Our overall experience is outstanding and we’ll rent this place again in the future!

Girls Trip
Overall stay was amazing with the perfect access to the beach. Cleanliness was satisfactory however, we had to deal with cockroaches in the kitchen daily during over stay which was a little nuisance. They kept coming out from a hole under the dish washer. Some basic kitchen stuff was not available for us, salt, pepper, dish scrubber, more dish washer tablets. Garage door had no lock and therefore safety of our stay was questionable.

I would rent this beach house again, but cleanliness was not where it should be. For example hand rails between first and second floor were very sticky and we saw two palmetto bugs on the first floor. Also, dishwasher is loose in the cabinet. Overall though, we had a great time and loved the house.

Large Family Trip
We are an extended family of 13, including 7 adults and 6 children. Overall I would recommend this house to anybody looking for quick beach access and many beds. Pros: access to beach, layout of house, number of beds, overall location. Cons: cleanliness of house. I'm sure it can be difficult to clean such a large house but there were clogged showers and sinks, sand on the floor, and the couches could have used a deep clean. It was livable but being cleaner would have made it the ultimate stay.

Jana t.

overall it was okay!
When we first walked in it was unsettling to see a large pallemetto bug half dead on the floor. Not what you want to see when you walk into a place you have spent that much money to stay at. I know it's FL and that time of year but was still hard for me to relax. They did let us check in 2 hrs early so that was nice, The place definatly needs updating and a good cleaning. Throughout the week we had multiple cockroaches. I called real Joy and they had someone come spray, he came with a can of raid and sprayed the house. I dont really find that peacfull even at the beach! The beds are really hard and uncomfortable. There was also mouse dropping in the silverware drawer. It was nice to be so close to the water and made it easy to grab things you forgot. The beach is so beautiful that was a plus being so close. One of the master bedrooms was on the bottom floor and that is where the the washer and dryer was in the room so we had the large group of people in and out to go outside also in and out to do laundry not a big deal just not much privacy if thats what you are looking for. I think the home has the potentiel to be a beautiful place I just think it definatley needs some TLC. Overall I wouldn't would choose this property again.

Destin Vacation
The property was not as clean as we would have liked. There was a lot of sand and dirt on the floor upon arrival. The house was perfect on the beach front. This is a great property for 17 adults with good sleeping accommodations, bathrooms, and spacious eating/living area. A disadvantage to the beach was that apparently the property is only allowed to have 6 spots and the beach that you must rent. Two chairs/umbrella come with the property for the private beach. Our group brought our personal chairs. The beach management company explained that we had to purchase two more sets of chairs in order to stay on the beach. How can you have a house for 18 people and only allow a few beach chairs? This should be advised when booking! The view was gorgeous. Nice decks with beach views. Great location in Destin. Located about 15 min from all restaurants and bars.

Our experience was very good overall! Would definitely stay again. Pros: - Location is excellent - Reasonably priced compared to comps - Lots of room for large groups - Beach chair/umbrella service is very nice - Beds are comfy - Property management is kind and responsive Cons: - Lacking/low on some basic amenities (no salt/pepper, no coffee filters, no extra trash bags, only two dish detergent pods, only one role of TP per bathroom) - Standard check-in seems fairly late (4:00 PM), however we were able to check in early so they are flexible - Some of the chairs/furniture seems like its on its last leg
