Spacious. Quite. Clean. The only thing I wish I knew is that the master bedroom was very hot & there was no ceiling fan to cool down. We weren’t allowed to touch thermostat so it made for a miserable nights sleep but otherwise, the place was amazing. Would definitely stay again but would bring fans next time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Destin FL. The weather wasn't ideal for the trip but you can't control mother nature. The house was fine though. The email from Sally included everything so we only had to contact her once for the code to the beach access, evidentially it had been updated recently. There was garbage in the cans but we arrived on garbage day so just moved them to the street and started with 4 empty cans. The yard is sand and the kids really enjoyed being able to play in the water in the "yard" There were several storms that came through and the water was almost too rough to enjoy but at the house it was perfect. The guys really enjoyed fishing off the dock and caught an assortment of fish, they caught a stingray and a baby shark from casting way out into the water. The beds were all fine. After the kids sunburned they complained about the "hard" sheets. The downstairs is a self contained apartment, I didn't stay down there but the kids said the shower was very small. The refrigerator upstairs didn't keep food real cold, I am going to let Sally know that so she can have it looked at. The beer was really not cold enough to enjoy. We kept the stuff in the refrigerator downstairs that mattered and the beer in ice chests. Hope that is a good review. I included everything that I wanted to know when I rented it.

This house was absolutely perfect. Bring your boat the dock is right outside your back door. This place is great for the whole family.

Overall the stay was nice and location was perfect. The dock was the main reason we rented the house as we came in by boat. Only negative thing I would say is the house had below bare minimum necessities. We travel alot and at this price point it should have a little more to offer.

This home was even better than the pictures ! The layout is great for a large family. The living area and open kitchen, dining and sunroom made for a great gathering place for our family of 16. The Roman were all good size . The spear toon of downstairs was great for this grandmother you could sleep in :) when not at the close walking distance beach we spent countless hours in the large fenced in deck watching fish jump, the fireworks, air show, and great scenery. I can’t say enough good about this home. One thing I will add is that the neighbor hood was very quiet and family friendly which is we wanted! Thank you Sally for a memorable home !

After reviewing all the great reviews on this property, maybe my expectations were too high. I have stayed in several Vrbo’s and Air B&B’s in the past and they all met or exceeded the description provided.
We had 12 family members. This house lists as sleeping 16 but there is no possible way.
One of the king size beds is so uncomfortable you roll to the middle of the bed and the fitted sheets won’t stay on the bed.
The sleeper sofas are not fit to sleep on. They are advertised as queens for sleeping 2 people, but the mattresses are 3” thick and nothing but fabric wrapped around springs. Our 9 year old slept on one and wasn’t comfortable but had no choice other than the floor. I tried to sleep on one and ended up folding it back up and sleeping on it as a sofa.
The kitchen cabinets are very unorganized and it is difficult to know what is there to cook in. The drawers in the kitchen are broken.
There are no steps inside the house leading to the downstairs, which makes it very unhandy to use the extra washer/dryer. The popcorn ceiling in the downstairs bathroom is peeling.
There was a towel holder off the wall in the master bath. The entire house had a damp musty smell, but especially the downstairs.
The walk to the private beach is short and the beach is fantastic.
There is ample parking and the back deck on the house is great!
The location of the home is great.
For the cost, this house was quite a disappointment and I wouldn’t recommend it to more than 10 people.

Destin-ation Success!
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the house. The 4 star is location only and if I could give 4 1/2 I would. We are an adventurous group of jet ski riders and if you plan to stay at the property, be aware that you’ll have a 30 min “no-wake” ride just to get to normal operating mode. This is the reason for less than 5-star. Sally, our host, was amazing……so helpful. The downstairs is perfect for separating families or if you have teenagers that want their own space. The dock is perfect for whatever watercraft you may have. Proximity to Crab Island is great and water is just like the postcards. I’d certainly recommend the property just keep in mind that if you have intentions to bring a boat or other type watercraft, you’ll need to secure overnight storage for your trailer. Sally can help you with the trailer storage suggestions. Overall great place to vacation!!

Wonderful place for a summer vacation
This is a nice large house that you could stay at all day and relax if you wanted. There is sand for the kids to play in and a dock to go down to the water. We loved our time here with family. Very good experience.

More than expected!
The pictures of the property are nothing like the real thing! Beautiful! We had an issue with the AC system upon arrival, no one's fault, but Sally was quick with responding and actually just showed up to get things squared away. We had a wonderful time and would definitely go back!

We came from Dallas, TX. The house was very beautiful and had enough space to fit everyone comfortably. It was a short walk to the beach. My grand children loved all the sand. It rained 2 days, but we still had a wonderful time. Thank you Sally

Good Stay
Great stay! House was amazing, space was exactly as noted on the site. Walk to the beach was also as descriptor. The sand on the lot was great for when you didn’t feel like taking all the kids to the beach :)

Destin Florida is beautiful and there is so much to do! We selected this house for a four family family vacation (20+family members). We had plenty space to spread out for time alone and plenty of space to gather for family time. Sally sent a welcome package of places to go and things to do that was super helpful. The house seemed to be right in the middle of everything:beach, shopping, restaraunts, entertainment, and fishing. But it was also just far enough out of the way to enjoy the peace and quiet of the area. There was a plane show and beautiful fireworks show that we watched right from the pier and deck of the house. This place is definitely the perfect place for a large group. The only negative comments I have about the rental: we were packing up to leave at 730 am and the cleaning crew showed up and asked when we were leaving. I think check out was ten or eleven??? It kind of ended the trip on a bad note. Overall everyone had a great time and enjoyed the spacious house and beautiful surroundings.

I am in the Air Force and plan to move to Destin in December. My family and extended family decided to take a trip to Destin for 4th of July to so everyone can see the location. And BOY!! we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The house was absolutely what we needed. the house had several rooms and beds to accompany everyone on the trip. Not to mention that it also had two floors so that the parents could stay downstairs and have peace of mind if we decided to stay up late. The living room area is so spacious that we all could enjoy join together to laugh and share stories. Once the weather started to kool down we all made our way out to the balcony to see just a beautiful view of the Destin amenities and firework displays. We also were 5 minute walk from the beach so we saw more fireworks as we left the beach. Sally was so helpful and squeezed us in on a last minute cancellation. She even stopped by to check on us. The whole time before, during, and after the trip she was very responsive. Thanks so much Sally!!!! The ONLY comment I would make is that the refrigerator and grill should be replaced soon. The fridge is older and it does not get as cold as we would like. Also the grill does not have a collector plate that is detachable so you can't easily remove all the charred food. Those were very small things though and everything still worked well. I hope this is a helpful review!!

The house is a duplex and we rented both floors since we had 25 ppl Including a couple of babies. This worked out great to have that separation so the babies can take naps and not be disturbed by the noise. The place was extremely spacious with a sunroom and plenty of sleeper sofas. It backs up to the harbor which is perfect since my dad loves to fish and my mom was amazed at how many oysters and sea snails you can see from the edge of the water. The water is shallow enough for the kids to play in it as well. It's about maybe 3-5 blocks to the beach. The property manger was extremely helpful and sweet. She greeted us at the rental upon our arrival.All in all I would recommend this place. The only reason why I didn't give it a 5 star is because it is an older home with old applicances that should be changed out soon.

Great Time & Great People
We had a great family vacation at this home. Holiday Isle really is the place to be in Destin. The house is nice with lots of space for large groups. The kitchen had plenty of cooking vessels, utensils and silverware. Very large deck with nice views of the bay and a large boat dock for you to rent or bring your own. We rented the pontoon boat from Sally and her son and we loved it. The boat ran well and the price was very reasonable.
The beach is about 1/3 of a mile walk which really isn't bad at all.
The only reason that I don't give the place 5 stars is because the downstairs apartment has a damp/musky/mildew type smell to it. It looks perfectly clean so I'm not sure what is causing it but it does make you wonder. I let the property manager know so I'm sure that they are addressing.
Speaking of, Sally is the property manager and she is fantastic! She was great to work with throughout. She sent us a welcome packet regarding things to do and restaurants to try which was very helpful. She stopped by the property to meet me in person and you can tell that she takes pride in making sure that her guests are taken care of. I can't recommend her enough.
Overall great stay and we would definitely rent with these folks again! Thanks for a great time!

Great House for Groups
We came down for an annual golf trip, and the house was perfect. Easy walk to the beach, and it sits on the Destin Harbor. We took a water taxi to bars and restaurants and kept a fishing boat at the house for our group. The house is centrally located to everything you need. Huge living space upstairs, large dining table, multiple TVs, and large outdoor deck overlooking the harbor. Downstairs "apartment" is provides a bit of privacy from the main house, but equipped with bedroom/bathrooms, living room, and kitchen as well.
