About this house rental

Welcome to Magnolia House & Guest Cottage

This beautiful vacation home offers the perfect space for 3-4 families or if your group is all adults, up to 12 will be most comfortable here.

You’ll find 3 bedrooms & 2 ½ baths in the main house, and 2 more bedrooms + loft & 2 baths in the separate guest house. The main house and guest house are only rented together, and they both offer living/dining space and fully equipped kitchens! It’s the ideal arrangement for large groups to vacation together, but still have some private space too. Your group can enjoy time together by the private pool - and the pristine white sand beach is just one block away!

When you enter the main house, you’ll step into a spacious and bright open living area with loads of seating! Large leather queen sleeper sofas and additional chairs and tables invite your large group to relax together -- maybe watch sports or a movie on the extra large SMART TV. The sleeper sofas feature memory foam mattresses. You’ll appreciate the fireplace, shiny tile floors and professional decor. Move into the open dining area with a large table with chairs and bench seating for up to 8, maybe 10. Five barstools are close-by at the open kitchen bar area.

The fully-equipped kitchen offers plenty of granite counter space for prep, cooking and dining and features stainless appliances. You’ll find everything you need to prepare your favorite vacation meals - pots, pans, utensils, as well as a toaster, blender, hand mixer and microwave. We even include salt, pepper, creamer, sugar and a few spices to get your started. There’s a Keurig D-cup coffee maker, as well as a regular drip coffee maker. And when dinner’s ready, you’ll find all the glasses, plates, bowls, and flatware you need to set the perfect table.

BEDROOM #1 - KING MASTER SUITE, 1st Floor of Main House

Gorgeous hardwood floors welcome you into this private space on the 1st floor of this amazing home. This KING Master Suite is light and bright with a comfortable King bed and side tables with lamps - perfect for enjoying a good book before calling it a night. There’s a comfortable chair for extra seating -- and a large flat-screen TV. You can step directly out to the pool from this room, and a beautiful ensuite bathroom completes this lovely space.

BATHROOM #1 - Ensuite to 1st Floor King Master Suite

This spacious bathroom features a large vanity with two sinks and plenty of cabinet space - so you can unpack and make yourself at home. You’ll enjoy the spa atmosphere and large jetted tub and separate walk-in shower. All bathrooms include large fluffy bath towels and a personal hair dryer.

BATHROOM #2 - Half Bath on 1st Floor

Featuring a sink and toilet, the beautiful half bath is conveniently located near the main house living, dining or kitchen areas.

GUEST HOUSE

Just across the pool from the Main House, this Guest House is one-of-a-kind! It’s more than just extra sleeping space -- it’s a fully-contained home with full kitchen, living and dining area too. This arrangement is great for multiple families (or family members who may be on different sleep/eat schedules). Having the second kitchen here is such a bonus -- great for preparing for a poolside cookout or perhaps the early-risers can meet here for breakfast and coffee without disturbing other guests. It’s fully-equipped with pots, pans, dishes, glassware, etc. - just like the Main House.

There’s a comfortable dining space with seating for 8 with a view of the pool and the Main House. There are four large barstools at the kitchen counter for more dining space.

The living area is open to the kitchen and dining space and features a comfortable leather sofa and large chair. With the adjacent dining space, it’s the perfect place to enjoy sports or a favorite movie on the large SMART TV, or keep an eye on what’s happening at the pool.

BEDROOM #6 - LOFT, 2nd floor of Guest House

A twin daybed is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the extra-large SMART TV in this open space upstairs. And it provides sleeping space for one more when it’s time to rest up for the next day’s beach adventures!

VRBO Review We started planning our family vacation well over a year in advance. After finally deciding on Destin we spent another several weeks looking for the perfect place to stay, and did we ever find it! It was set-up perfectly for our family, three bedrooms in the main house with 4 beds and a two bedroom pool house with a loft. Both houses were fully stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need in a home away from home. Amazingly, no matter what we needed, we didn’t look for long. It was there and right where you’d expect it to be. The owners of the home were great! They welcomed us to Destin, texting us when the house was available and allowed us to check-in early. They also invited us to text or call if we ran into any issues. We did text back and forth a few times, but only to ask advice about Destin. Never to report any complaints or issues with the vacation home. There was 11 adults and a toddler the entire week. The houses provided the perfect amount of space; enough to provide the privacy everyone needed and more than enough space for us all to be in the same room or around the pool without being on top of each other. And towels! There were plenty of towels for all of us; bath towels, hand towels and washcloths by the dozens. There really are too many positive things about this VRBO to mention, however this maybe the most important; location! It’s near everything! You can’t go wrong by choosing this rental! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

The Magnolia House was exactly what we needed. We were pleasantly surprised to find the house fully stocked. Our family enjoyed the short walk to the beach in the morning and the backyard pool in the afternoon. The house is spacious and very comfortable. Kim was very attentive and accommodating.
