About this house rental
Welcome to The Blarney Stone – This is your lucky day!
An ideal home for 2-3 families with children--we sleep up to 11 people.
This lovely home will probably become your favorite beach vacation spot! Located in the Maravilla Resort, this beautifully updated beach cottage gives you the space and comfort of a stand-alone beach house, as well as the amenities of an exclusive beach resort: 2 beautiful swimming pools, fitness center, tennis and PRIVATE beach. It’s the best of both! Your rental also includes a COMPLIMENTARY ($600-800 value) 4-PASSENGER GOLF CART which you can use to drive to the beach, nearby shops and restaurants. Please note: while the resort is beachfront (the resort owns the beach) this house is located in the center of the resort about 300 or so yards off the beach.
This inviting home features 3 KING bedrooms and a QUEEN bedroom with an additional TWIN bed and 2 full bathrooms. The fresh decor is light and bright with a true beach house feel. Centrally located on Scenic Gulf Drive (near the Silver Sands Outlet Mall and Pompano Joe's), this home is very close to local attractions, restaurants, and shopping.
An abundance of windows with beautiful wooden shutters fill this home with light starting with the open living and dining area. There’s plenty of seating to enjoy conversation with friends and family, or perhaps catch a movie or sports on the large flat-screen ROKU TV with DVD player. Beautiful tile floors extend throughout this comfortable space. There’s a dining table with seating for 6, with room for more at the kitchen bar. The living room has a sleeper sofa.
The fully-equipped kitchen has been updated with beautiful quartz counters and tile backsplash. It is open to the living area, making it perfect for enjoying guests while preparing your favorite food and beverages. You’ll find all the dishes, pans and utensils you may need and a Keurig K-Cup coffee maker. One roll of paper towels and basic cleaning supplies are provided. We want you to feel at home, and the large, open layout is a perfect gathering spot for your family or friends.
For your convenience, you’ll find a full-size laundry room next to the kitchen. We keep all our homes clean and well updated, and pay attention to amenities you expect, such as high-speed internet (free wifi), nice flat-screen ROKU TVs (in living room and all bedrooms), hair dryers in each bathroom and more. (One roll of toilet paper is provided in each bathroom.) We also provide items our smaller guests may need like a high chair and pack-n-play.

This master escape includes a private ensuite bathroom.

You'll love this inviting fenced space - it even has a private outdoor shower - great for rinsing off after a day at the beach! With the 2-car garage, there is parking for up to 4 cars at this home.
AMENITIES & LOCATION
Maravilla is the one of the most popular family resorts in the Destin area. It’s a low-density resort, which means fewer people on the beach! It has a 2-acre PRIVATE beach with a gated entrance and plenty of green space for the kids to run and play safely. You'll find a beach wagon with 4 chairs - you can just roll it to the beach. You can also rent chairs and an umbrella from the vendor on the beach; no personal umbrellas are allowed on private beaches. Maravilla also features two swimming pools (one heated), a hot tub, BBQ grills, tennis & pickleball courts, shuffleboard, and a basketball hoop. It’s easy to see why families return to Maravilla year after year.
GOLF CART – Complimentary use of the 4-passenger golf cart is included with this rental.
Restaurants, activities and entertainment are close-by. You’ll appreciate the beautiful upscale shopping and entertainment at Destin Commons. It features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Bass Pro Shop, World of Beer, Whole Foods, Panera Bread, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl & Grill, AMC Theater with IMAX and much more. Local favorites, Pompano Joe’s and Kenny D’s are a short walk away. You can bicycle, scooter, Jet ski and go para-sailing along the beach. The Silver Sands Outlet mall is not far for those who enjoy “retail therapy”!
PET FRIENDLY
We are pet friendly and welcome your dogs in our home. There is a $300 per dog extra fee and your dog must be pre-approved by the owner. Only dogs allowed (no other pets.) Please include the breed/size/age of your dogs in your inquiry for pre-approval.
No one has standards as high as ours, and no one delivers on their standards like we do. You’ll find our homes furnished nicer and better equipped than most, and impeccably maintained. We’re here if you should need us during your stay.

We loved staying at The Blarney. It was a cute beach house with plenty of room for 7 people. The beds were comfy, the house was clean, and it was an easy walk to the beach but also came with a nice golf cart, which made the trip very easy with beach bags! The community pool was very basic but we were happy to spend all of our time at the beach! The patio in the backyard was great with sitting, a gas grill, and an outdoor shower. We would stay at this house again!

Upon arrival we immediately spotted ants all over the kitchen counters and called the property mgr. about this and the Wi-Fi not working. Jeff stopped by with ant traps from Lowe’s and told us to try windex. Neither of these worked so they sent a pest control company over a few days later to find how they were getting in-which was under the stove and left bait. We NEVER did use the kitchen the 6 days we were there due to all the ants! Also there is barely any outdoor space to sit and the few chairs were soaking wet and dirty. The only positive was the use of the golf cart. Would never stay at this property in the future!

Maravilla is our favorite neighborhood to stay in. It's gated, pet friendly, and has a private beach. The pools and hot tub are always relaxing after a day at the beach or crab island. We have stayed at a lot of places in Maravilla and the Blarney Stone is one of the best we have rented. The layout of the house is perfect and roomy and the decor is fun and beachy. We loved using the golf cart to get around!

Overall the house was perfect for us, the golf cart was a huge bonus getting too and from the beach.
I wish it had a little more outside seating is the only thing I would change.

Blarney was the best
My husband and I stayed with our adult married children. The bed configuration four the 4 bedrooms is what sold us on the rental. King comfy beds, with one room having a queen and twin. No one got stuck with a bunk room or sleeping in the living room!

PERFECT FAMILY VACATION!!!
We had our two families staying at the house, 9 adults, and a small dog. I have to say, I was a little nervous that the house might be too small for 9 adults but, I was wrong. The house was perfect, spacious with an open floor plan. We have created many great memories and plan to come back again. Shore Dream Vacation Rentals management team was great.

Would stay again !
The house was beautiful and much bigger than we expected! There was plenty of room for the family and our dog. Love the open kitchen/dining/living room so we could all spend time together. The golf cart was a wonderful add in. The beach wasn’t far from the house but the gold cart made it that much easier. The beach toys, chairs and water toys made it cheaper for us not to have to buy them! Check in and out was simple and getting ahold of someone if you need to is simple. I would definitely recommend this house.

Beautiful
Awesome family time. Took my family of 10, and my chihuahua for a week, everything was wonderful. Love the golf cart. When we had an issue with it, the repair person came right away and fixed it.
Kitchen is wonderfully stocked, awesome grill, the house is decorated perfectly, and is very roomy, everything is right near you so you don’t have to leave in your to go anywhere, unless you want to.

Cozy, clean and relaxing property
This was our first time in the Blarney Stone and we were all very impressed. We had six adults and four children and did not feel crammed for space at all. The king size beds in each room for the adults was wonderful. The house was very clean, decorated so nicely and most importantly, it felt cozy. We spent many evenings after dinner all together outside on the patio furniture or in the living room. Having a washer and dryer and a kitchen was very beneficial. The rental company was very communicative and prompt with all responses when needed but otherwise left us to enjoy a very relaxing and enjoyable vacation. We didn’t have to leave for a maid to come like you would in a hotel. One of our absolute favorite things about this property was the addition of the golf cart. We understood by the description there would be a short walk to a pool or the ocean and were completely ok with it, even brought wagons to assist. We didn’t even use them!! We used the golf cart to go everywhere, even to dinner a few times! Lastly, the check in and check out process was so easy! We really don’t have a single negative thing to say about our experience and are already reviewing dates to book again for next summer. This was our first family vacation with all the kids and grandkids and it was spent making many memories and sharing lots of laughter. Thank you for a fantastic experience!
