Our family of 5 adult children, their significant others and a grand baby stayed at this location. It was exactly what we expected and needed. This property was perfect for party time for some and quiet time for others. Great experience.

At check in on Sunday, found ceiling leak in carriage house that had obviously been there a while. Someone came to look at it and told us a plumber would come back. Plumber came the next day, said not a plumbing issue, don’t be surprised if ceiling fell in. No call back from mgmt, which continued for two days. Mgmt finally calls back Wednesday with “great news”, it will be fixed Thursday. As we were checking out Friday a.m., I asked them not to come disrupt our last day. Mgmt got extremely rude and angry with me. Our entire stay we had towels in the middle of hallway soaking up dripping water. Another big surprise was the metal spiral staircase in the carriage house, which was not seen in any pictures or talked about in description of house. This made the area inaccessible to over half of our party due to their ages and/or physical disability. We would not have chosen this property if the staircase was known about. Other than these two big things, the house was ok, just showing lots of wear and tear. We will make sure to never use this rental agency again and would definitely not recommend them.

This was a perfect house for our large family. Teens/young adults had the separate bunk house on the property which was perfect. The house was spotless and right across the street for the beach access. The public beach was small but we just woke up early and took our chairs down and had no problem. Locals did tell us there was another access down the street that was larger if we needed it but we didn’t even check it out. We were there for the 4th and watched fireworks on the beach. We were centrally located to shopping, good, gas etc. PERFECT for us!

Right across the street from the beach- great pool. Great communication with support. Nice open space to gather as a group. (there were just a few small little details that seemed a little out of place for such a nice property - like poor towels and no ability to dry beach towels in a dryer - ice maker broken) But the place is super nice and the pool layout and set up was a huge hit! And the location was terrific! The place came with 6 beach chairs and a wagon!

We had a wonderful week. The only comment I would have is the cost associated with heating the pool which is a bit of an overcharge from my perspective. I would add that by accident we packed one of the dish towels which we can return if necessary.

Great house and perfect location. Easy booking and communication with host/property prior to check in. We didn't have any issues during our stay so there was no need to contact them further. There were a lot of college spring breakers around us so lots of walking traffic by the house/pool. Didn't bother us, but if you were looking for quiet, this is probably not the place for you. My only negative would be that the stairs in both houses were steep. I didn't use the spiral stairs in the carriage house, but my family said they were sketchy, An upgrade opportunity would be to install hand rails on the staircases and in the bathrooms. Overall, great stay!!!!

We had our 2 married children and 10 grandchildren with us. Just a great home right across from the beach that all had fun in. The rooms were bigger and nicer than even your photos captured. And just walking right across the street to the beach was perfect. Thank you to the managers that helped with a couple small issues. Will hopefully return someday.

Loved the house, dog friendly and kids loved the pool. Across the street from the beach was awesome! My daughter and family used the carriage house which was nice from size standpoint, but they were separated from the rest of the family who was in the main house. Sitting on the front porch was very nice people watching. Love Destin, we had fun.

We loved the location of the house and really appreciated the separate cottage. It reduced the crowd in the main kitchen and the noise level overall. Roy was very helpful. It was an easy process. Highly recommend!!

This is a great house for a large family or group. You have a good view of the ocean with just a short walk across the street by a cross walk just in front of the house. The porches and outside seating is fantastic with great outdoor furniture. The kitchen is well equipped with anything needed for large family meals. We enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely the best! Beautiful weather, awesome pool for my grandsons. Property manager got right on turning on the pool heater all 5 of them loved it and the oldest who is 4 learned to swim. House and carriage house worked perfect. Beach access very close and easy for my parents and the babies to get to and from the house. We will be back

Our yearly family trip

Our yearly family trip

This property was everything the listing said it was. Beautiful home and pool house. Right across from the beach. The kids loved the pool. Close to everything. My only recommendation is to allow more parking, you have a limit of 4 cars. However we all had large SUV’s or trucks so it was tight it fit but we had to position cars for those that left a lot so it was easy for them to leave. We made it work and will definitely look at this property again. You will not be disappointed with the home or the service. If I called or messaged the service was really quick.

Overall it was an excellent girls trip for the 9 of us. Only issue is in the overflow house the stairs needs to be shown In pictures. They are spiral/metal and not very sturdy. May change the mind of those hwho cannot navigate those stairs…they are difficult to get luggage up and down. Not safe at all. Other than that everything else is excellent…can’t pick a better location!

Full disclosure is needed

Full disclosure is needed

The property was great, as advertised; however, the portion of the beach that is close to the house is approximately 100-150’ wide. The rest of the beach is private without access. If you are staying at this house with a large group, you will need to get up early to get a spot. I know the owner and the mgt company don’t make the beach rules, but they should be more forthcoming about the location and the beach reality.
