We loved our stay. Plenty of space for everyone. The pool looks smaller on the photos but it was a great spot to hang out even with all of us in it. There is no parking for the beach access but we dropped off so only 1 had to walk the entire way. If you have older kids/adults the walk is not bad but we had several littles. The decor and photos of the house are accurate.

The inside of the home was dirty upon arrival. it was sand all downstairs from the kitchen to the front door. the pool was extremely dirty upon arrival and stayed dirty the whole duration of my stay. The pool was not cleaned until the night before my check out date which is very inconvenient

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I did not experience any of the concerns mentioned by the previous guests. The house was clean, comfortable for our large family, and we would definitely return since we enjoyed the large space, the pool, the separate guest house, the relatively close walk to the beach, and with many great food options nearby. the Private beach access was also a plus!

This house has a great location and plenty of space for our family. Our grandkids loved having the private pool to play in after returning from the beach. Upon check in, there were five bathrooms of which only two had toilet paper. There were no extra trash bags and no dishwasher pods/soap. The kitchen is poorly equipped but the gas grill was nice. It could definitely use a thorough cleaning. All things considered, I would rent it again.

Plenty of room for a large group. We used the main and guest houses. We had to have been the first renters since last season, film of dust on all surfaces and musty smelling, including the bed linens. We prepared most meals there and both kitchens lack a few basic necessities (no coffee machine in the guest kitchen). A few lights didn't work, a few windows didn't open. We had a some plumbing issues and property manager was generally responsive. The house backs up to a very noisy and busy street. Much confusion on the directions for beach gate and the passcode didn't work. Great location if you're looking to be close to shops and have a large group, as the guest house alone will sleep 6 comfortably. Plenty of bath linens.

While this house is incredibly large and can accommodate a large extended family there were some misleading things and drawbacks. First, the second house is over the garage making and the loft area with the four twin beds is EXTREMELY hot. They do provide fans but it was still warm in there. Additionally they truly only provide starters of items that you usually find in a rental (paper towels, toilet paper, etc). We had to purchase our own toilet paper after spending a significant any amount on this rental. It was off putting and seemed cheap. Additionally they do not provide any beach items. We had to bring towels and purchase boogie boards and bring sand toys with us. Again for just a couple hundred dollars they could make the user experience more positive. Last issue we had was how LOUD the street is nearby. I know they can’t control this hit just know that you will hear the cars traveling at all hours. Most nights it’s not bad but starts up early in the morning On the plus side this house is large and the pool (whole small) was nice to have. The community pool is very close too. It’s in a nice gated community and walkable (1/2 mile) to the beach. We enjoyed the house and our time at the beach overall even with the annoyances.

This home was not what I expected. The reviews stated how clean and well kept this property was and that was not my experience at all. Things were broken all around the house (light fixtures, door handles falling off, and other small things), paint was chipped and scuffed. The pool house had a horrible chemical smell, the pool was filthy, master shower jets didn’t even spray with full force due to build up! I can keep going! I tried contacting housekeeping and never received a call back. If you are use to a well kept clean house I do not recommend this location!

My son was getting married in Destin and we wanted a house for all the family - enough space for everyone and this was it! Had 3 families here and everyone had their own space! We would rent again. Property Manager very responsive!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was a great layout for our group of 15, 8 adults and 7 children. The few issues we had at check in were quickly taken care of and in a very pleasant manner. The pool was great for the kids and one of the community pools is just steps away. The inside of the home does need updating. The coffee table in the main area should be removed since it has a screw sticking out of the top. The king bed upstairs is two twins mattresses and there is no usable exit off the main bedroom to the patio. All that being said, the trip was a great success and we enjoyed our stay here. Just know the house is not perfect looking but it’s a great place to stay. Couldn’t have asked for more accommodating managers to work with. The beach is a bit of a hike, but discovered on last day we could park on south end of subdivision so the walk was easier on the littles. Thanks for a great 50th anniversary trip!

Beautiful home! We had a great experience! There are a few minor touches that could improve the experience. 1. Fix the stove top so it does not require manual ignition with a lighter. 2. Check the toilet in the carriage house because it takes a long time for the water to fill the take after usage. 3. The ceiling fans seem to have only one speed, high. 4. The knob for the fan on the range hood does not work. This is a fantastic unit in a great location! Again, these are minor observations that can be fixed in one day, and they would not keep me from renting this location again. Thanks for a great experience!

We very much enjoyed our stay in the Pineapple Villa. Overall the home was clean, easy to access and in a very walkable community. A couple of downsides were the listing marketed this property as sleeping 18, which we needed. However, it only sleeps 16. Thankfully, we anticipated this error before going down and took an air mattress with us. Just be aware of the discrepancy before traveling (hopefully management will correct this soon on the listing). Otherwise, the beds were comfortable and no-one complained. The other thing to be aware of is the walk to the beach. It is just shy of 1/2 a mile walk. This was not a problem for our group, but those with little children might want to take this into consideration. The walk is easy and mainly through the neighborhood, which is cute and felt very safe. We would return to the Pineapple Villa in the future! Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the home suited our family needs. There were plenty of beds and baths and places to sit and eat. All of the eating was done in the main house bc of the space and all the cookware was there. The knives were extremely dull, ALL the drinking glasses were dirty and there was no baking sheets or baking dishes. It only came with one roll of paper towel roll on each unit and 1 dishwasher pod. We wasnt sure how to cut the exterior lights on at the pool area and the white couch covers in the main house were extremely filthy. 4 min drive to the beach,10 mins from the outlets and restuarants. Didn't allow an early check in due to cleaning but the dishes, couch covers or floors weren't cleaned! Beds were comfortable, no issues with bathrooms

The home was absolutely beautiful. Very clean. All the information I received via email before arriving was on-point. I didn’t have ANY issues. My family thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We were upset that we didn’t reserve the home for more than 4 days.
