We really loved this place! It's a very short walk to the beach and we appreciated the easy access. We knew it would be plenty big for our family of 5 (2 adults, 1 teenager, 2 kids), but it was even larger than expected which was great. I loved how clean it was when we arrived and the neighborhood has a bunch of places within walking distance. It has a ton of pots/pans/utensils to make meals, just be sure to bring salt/pepper/oil if you plan on cooking. The property management were very responsive and friendly, too. We also really appreciated the signage and instructions around the house, as well as the check-in process , very well done! Overall we had an amazing time and would highly recommend this house!

Enjoyed a Spring Break get away with my 4 teenagers. Great condo and location that worked perfectly for us. Only 2 small issues: propane tank for the grill was empty and water pressure is a bit low when starting the washing machine These did not take away from our enjoying our trip and we will definitely purely stay here again if we return to the Destin area.

This house is so much better than what the photos show! Nine of us stayed and were very comfortable the entire time. The kitchen is huge and the living space was very spacious for all of us! The porch was a great space to hang out together as well. The short walk to the beach was truly a short walk! And the private beach was so nice!!

This house was a perfect mix of right by the beach, secluded, but close to everything we needed! The house itself was great and we were very comfortable staying there with plenty of outside spaces to enjoy as well! Getting to the beach was a breeze and was so close! Shopping was right up the street which was very handy traveling with kids especially! We would come back in a heartbeat!
