Casa Di Amore is situated directly on the south side of the lake in Dunes of Destin offering relaxing views of the lake and its lighted fountains at night. The home is located just steps away from the gated community's private beach. Your experience here will be memorable and keep you and your family coming back year after year.

Will stay here again for sure.

Good afternoon. the experience in this house was EXCEPTIONAL. The house is spacious, comfortable and spectacularly decorated. The pool has a view of the lake which makes for a beautiful view... the toilet without any detail to say. It has 5 super comfortable rooms (more comfortable beds and pillows than the ones in my house😅) with a bathroom each and a half bathroom in the living room. The first floor has 1 room with a King bed and another room with 2 bunk beds for 8 people, the second floor has 1 room with a king bed and the third floor two rooms with a king bed and in the living room a sofa bed for 2 people for a total of 18 people. the beautiful and comfortable kitchen for several people at the same time with utensils for all the guests, everything you imagine you need in a kitchen you get it there... the owners thought of all the details and did not let anything go unnoticed. the path to the beach is very short, I counted about 120 steps from the house to the entrance of the beach. When you get to the beach you have someone register you because it is private and that area is only for those who are staying there. The rental of the house includes an umbrella and 2 chairs, they allow you to bring your chairs and umbrellas (they do not allow awnings) and if you don't have them, you can rent them right there. Umbrellas and additional chairs cost $50. I would like to summarize that the stay in this house is a DREAM. We will definitely return next year.

5.0 / 5.0
The house is gorgeous and very clean. Lots of space, great pool/hot tub and a very short walk to the beach! Very nearby to everything in Destin and backs up right to a nice lake, which is peaceful. Check in/out was super easy and the management company was extremely helpful when we accidentally left an item behind at check out. Only items to note were that while the kitchen had a more than enough cooking utensils, dishes and gadgets, there were no spices or anything so you do have to buy all of that and throw it out when you leave if you plan to cook there. Also had to purchase dishwasher and laundry detergent, as there was only enough provided for a couple loads of each. The upstairs master bathroom at the back of the house has large windows that lack window coverings and privacy glass (except in shower) so we felt exposed to neighbors whose windows looked right in. Otherwise, it was everything we hoped for and we would return here in a heartbeat!

Perfect for families
The best house for a family vacation in Destin. Well-maintained. Kid-friendly. Super quick walk to the private Dunes community beach. Heated pool and hot tub. Beautiful lake views from the deck and patio (feed the turtles!). You can spend a whole week at this house without needing any other entertainment--which is exactly what we did.

Amazing Home
Great floor plan and location close to the beach. Very short walk to beach. Access to garage is nice to put cars in. Very clean inside the home and beautiful finishes. Host needs to pay more attention to cleanliness of landscape. Need more instruction for use of the hot tub.

Casa Di Amore Destin
This is a great place to stay, located very close to beach with a great pool and patio area. Enjoyed watching the wildlife off the deck. Had some issues with the ice maker, but all issues were resolved quickly. Management was very good to work with. We had 10 adults, and there was plenty of space to get together, or have our own space.
The location is very central to lots of restaurants and activies, but the traffic on HW 98 was terrible. Had to wait quite often just to make a left turn. Decided to take a short drive down the coast, but were afraid we weren't going to get back due to traffic. There was some road construction, but I have a feeling that Destin has allowed too much development with not enough attention to infrastructure. Overall good experience.

Beautiful property and views
Overall this property had everything we needed for our family vacation. We enjoyed the heated pool,hot tub and waking up to the beautiful view each morning. The only issue we had was checking in early. We were told we could check in early but had issues with the entry code. We weren't able to check in early after all but once we got in the rest of the stay was amazing.
I recommend staying at this property for sure!

Grown Folks Getaway
Let me get the bad out of the way: the neighbor on the right would blast her music at 6:30 pm EVERY EVENING no matter how low we had our music, the first night we never turned it on because we didn't know how, to the point we would go in because it was so loud. the water faucets in one of the master baths needed to be dipped in some CLR.
NOW the GOOD!!! I love this house. From the customer service to the Swimming pool. From the location entrance and the community was inviting. This home was everything! A much needed relaxing place for adults to enjoy the down time. The beach access was very close and within the community that captured the security and needed peace when you are away from home even in the mist of this pandemic. Did I say Customer Service gets a A plus(before, during and after my stay). I recommend getting the pool heated during your stay you will thank me later. I will be coming back.

If you missed the road entering into dunes of destin then you missed it. They need street lites
I wouldn't use compass resorts again. They just aren't educated enough on destin and some girls weren't friendly at all. One girl Stephanie was awesome.

Bachelorette party!
This is our second time renting the house. First time was ten years earlier, didn’t disappoint either time! We love the back yard pool on the small lake and the short walk to to the beach.

1.0 / 5.0
This home was poorly cleaned and poorly maintained both inside and out. It had a beautiful pool and hot tub, however where you sat near the landscaping was a pile of old broken furniture that was piled up and not taken away before we arrived and was not removed during our stay even after calling about it twice. The pool was dirty and there was mold and mildew around it. There was lattice around the hot tub that was coming off. The outside furniture and wet-bar were covered in old bugs, cobwebs and spider eggs/sacs. We did have clean sheets and towels but as a whole I am not sure the property has been heavily cleaned in quiet sometime. There were piles of dust under beds, in the ceiling around the fans,etc. the garage door also broke right after our arrival. The rental company was timely in responding to our issues, however most things did not get fixed or taken care of. I did appreciate not having to pay the cleaning fee. I would definitely not stay at this property again.

The house was great! The location was great and there was plenty of room for my family of 8. The only concern I had was calling customer service because of the long hold times

Covid stay
We stayed at the beginning of all the closures. By wednsday of our stay all restaurants and beaches were closed. The pool became the awesome hangout. The kitchen became our 5 star dining. Great house and great location.

Perfect Getaway
The location was perfect--a block from the beach and about 2 blocks from grocery store, souvenir shop, and other eateries. The pool was absolutely amazing for the kids. There was plenty of room for our group of 14--the kids loved their room in the basement. There was even a collapsible wagon for us to use. We had a very relaxing time and would definitely come back.

Luxurious house and so much space
This house was perfect for our family of 14. We enjoyed breakfast on the veranda every morning. The kids were constantly in the pool if we weren’t at the beach. Access to the beach was easy. We enjoyed games together in the evening with the open floor plan on the main level. What a great place to stay.

Great house, quiet area, convenient location
We had multiple families staying at the house for our vacation. It was great and suited us well. There’s 2 beautiful master bedrooms on the top floor each with a balcony, the middle floor has the main living space and a queen bedroom perfect for the grandparents (fewer stairs to climb). The bottom floor has a bunk room and a master. We had 4 kids in the bunk room and used the master. If you travel with very little ones know that there’s not a bathtub downstairs and no dresser in the bunk room for storage. We had a few minor maintenance issues that were immediately addressed and followed up on which was great. The pool is a nice size and the deck is spacious. Some of the chairs were broken and unusable but there’s a lot of seating. The private beach is a short walk and was AWESOME. We really liked the community. The hot tub is right under a palm tree so a lot of debris falls into it. Once it turns on it’s a swirl of palm tree bits! We didn’t use it but that’s ok since it was July. The kitchen was equipped with a standard coffee maker and a keurig. There’s a great vacuum cleaner for picking up sand and crumbs. No other cleaning supplies or broom if that’s important to you. We brought a few things to keep it clean for the week. We also used Publix delivery and Uber during the stay and both services were available pretty quickly. Check in and check out was easy and simple. We would stay here again. Great house!

Nice place!
Located on pond side of Dunes of Destin. Family of 7 stayed comfortable with room to spare. The pool was a nice break from the beach and a day of golf. House had a beach cart which was great for taking our things out to the beach.

The house I fell in love with
I don’t know where to start. This house was by far one of the best houses my friends, family and myself have ever stayed in. It was literally a two minute walk from the beach. Every bedroom had their own bathroom. The house itself stood out among the others. It was so pretty on the outside and so elegantly beautiful on the in. I rented it for my bridal party for my destination wedding and it was absolutely a vacation to die for!

Lovely
The home was beautiful and everyone enjoyed the pool and the short walk to the beach. We had a group of eight adults and five children and everyone was happy with their rooms. The air conditioning kept us quite cool even though it was very hot and muggy outside. Now with the things that I did not like. This rental was very expensive and you would think if you are paying for luxury you would receive it in every way. We had to buy toilet tissue, paper towels and even dishwasher cleaner (we were left with 2 packets, but with a group of thirteen the dishwasher had to be turned on everyday.) Now for the real problem for me. When you walked in everything looked clean and for the most part it was. The floors had been vacuumed, but they had not been mopped. I don't want to walk barefoot from my own family's dirt and I sure don't want to walk on a strangers dirt. So, please change your rules and mop before each guest arrives. Too much money to spend to stay at a place where you felt the floors were dirty.
