About this house rental
MiMi's House: the perfect family get-away-home on 30A! Our two-story home is a newer construction in the Dune Side Community of Blue Mountain Beach finished in May 2019. MiMi's House is an approximately five minute-walk to the first of several Blue Mountain Beach public-access areas that give our guests the opportunity to take-in the white sugar-sand beaches and the beautiful waters of the "Emerald Coast."
Natural sunlight streams through large sliding glass doors in the downstairs L-shaped open floor plan. Seating for eight to ten around the large dining room table is steps away from seating for 6 at the expansive center-island. The well-equipped gourmet kitchen features all-new stainless-steel appliances including a large-capacity Kitchen-Aid refrigerator freezer with water and ice dispenser and a wine refrigerator. Coffee drinkers find both a family-sized coffee maker and a Keurig individual cup maker. As you move from being the morning barista to afternoon and evening tropical drinks, the Ninja blender will make you look like a professional mixologist. The kitchen and dining areas meld into the family room that offers a large, comfy, leather sectional, and a 75-inch flatscreen SONY TV with Sonos Sound Bar. The family room and dining area both allow direct access to the private-pool deck and screened-porch. MiMi's house is the only home in Dune Side where the pool and screened -porch areas are completely private from other residences.
Enjoy a picnic-lunch on the screened-porch while seated at the oversized outdoor dining table and comfortable chairs that are just steps away from the outdoor, Kitchen Aid, direct-line gas grill. The beautiful, heated 10x18 pool features a cascading water-fall and subsurface lighting with built-in seating. Chilling by the pool is made easy with both chaise-lounge and Adirondack seating. On your return from a great-day at the beach, wash your sand-covered feet or sandals off with the foot-wash just outside the pool-gate then rinse-off completely under the outdoor shower once you enter the pool deck.
Before going up the extra-wide, open stairwell, check-out the fully-equipped laundry room and pantry conveniently tucked off the kitchen, and the first-floor powder room.
Now that you are upstairs, you can really see why MiMi's house is family-friendly. The Master Bedroom and Mini-Master are a opposite ends of the L-Shaped house. This thoughtful lay-out is unique to the homes in Dune Side.
As you enter the large Master Bedroom you will find a generously-sized walk-in closet. Kick your feet-up on the soft leather recliner that has its own mobile-device port while watching the large flat-screen SONY TV. Sleep will come comfortably on the low-profile king-sized bed, and, when it's time to get ready, use the make-up table to put on the finishing touches. Enjoy your morning coffee on the Romeo-and-Juliet deck with your someone special. Later in the evening enjoy a glass of wine as you watch the sunset on the west-facing deck. Taking a hot bath in the soaking tub or enjoying the large walk-in shower put the exclamation point on the awesome master bedroom space.
A second family can enjoy the mini-master suite over the garage. Use the stylish barn-door to make the master-bedroom with King bed, and bathroom a suite unto itself, or just use bedroom with king bed, walk-in closet, and flat-screen Sony Tv for yourself, and allow others in your party to enjoy the kids' bunk area with their own flat screen tv and the double-vanity and walk-in glass-door shower bathroom.
Need flexibility in sleeping arrangements? MiMi's House has the solution. In addition to the flexible use of the mini-master, the other two bedrooms give you a choice of a single, queen-bed with its own flat-screen Sony TV in one room and two bunk-beds with full-size mattresses on the lower bunks and single-mattresses on the upper bunks, along with another flat-screen Sony Tv, in the other room. Adjacent to the queen room is a third full bathroom with a walk-in shower and built-in tiled-seating. All-in-all, MiMi's House can accommodate up to 12 adults, or a combination of adults and children.
Before going back down the stairwell, stop again for a moment to look-out over the inviting pool area and 30A. As you look to the East , envision yourself taking the 2-minute walk to Sally's By The Sea Store, the Blue Mountain Bakery, and Big Daddy's Bike Shop. Another minute away is McTighe's Irish Pub and Blue Mabel Restaurant. One more minute on your walk and you will arrive at the famous Blue Mountain Creamery. If you want more exercise than walking, jump on the famous 30A bike-path immediately across 30A and go for miles on your bike in either direction. Once you park your vehicle in the driveway at MiMi's House, you may never need to get in your car until its time, sadly, to go home.

Great house. Great location. Super clean. Great host and property Manager. 10/10 would stay again.

This home is beautiful and had lots of room for our group of 10. We loved having the private pool. The kitchen was well stocked and great for cooking. We would choose this home again!
4.9
Our family of 10 had a wonderful time staying at Mimi’s house for the week. The house is beautiful and fit all of us comfortably. The beach is a short walk but I do recommend getting a golf cart if you have small children. We would definitely stay here again. Aresa was great to work with and very friendly. Thank you for sharing your home with our family.

We had a great time at this house! The location
was amazing. Walkable to great restaurants. The beach was not a far walk. We rented a golf cart to get around for the week. The house itself is beautiful, very spacious and well equipped kitchen. The house had 5 beach chairs & beach/pool towels. We loved our time here!

I cannot say enough good things about our stay at Mimi’s house. Every question we had was answered very quickly and we had the best time, even with several storms coming through.
The only very minor things I would mention are not even negative. They’re just a “head’s up” type of information so future guests will be prepared: If you have an infant (or adult) that needs complete darkness to sleep, you’ll want to bring something to block out the light. It’s a very bright house with so many windows, which is actually wonderful. (Just not at bedtime if you have a very picky toddler-ha!). There are zero beach towels, which I believe the house description states, but I just want to mention it in case guests skim over that point. There are plenty of pool towels though! Also, this house backs up to the main road, which is mostly not a problem at all since it’s such a quaint town. I just know some people might like to be aware of such information. There are plenty of trees between the house and road to provide privacy though. So you really wouldn’t know the road was there except for the occasional truck or motorcycle.
Renting a golf cart is a must, especially if you are bringing children.
Overall, this was the best vacation home we have ever rented, and we have rented a beach house every year for many years! So clean, huge kitchen, great communication, fabulous location, games, magazines and books for rainy days. The hosts are eager to please. Love it!

Aresa was quick and responsive and the place was top notch. Very comfortable and one of those places you just know is a better quality stay that you want to stay. Enjoyed and look forward to another visit.

Mimi's house is a beautiful home. Plenty of room for the 11 of us that stayed there. The kids enjoyed the pool and the bunk room. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything that we needed during our stay. Some very nice touches were having extra beach towels and beach bags provided. We were also thankful for the abundance of bath towels. We rented a golf cart to get to the beach, but it is about a 7-10 minute walk if you go by foot. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
4.9
We had a wonderful stay at Mimi’s house! There was no detail overlooked on this property! The decor and amenities were some of the best I have seen in a rental property. We had 7 adults and 2 children and had plenty of space. The living room and kitchen were so spacious for spending time together! The house is a little off the beach so a golf cart rental was a must for our group! Aresa the property manager was very responsive, we had no issues but booking, checking in and out was a breeze! Absolutely would stay at this property again!

The pictures were very accurate description of house. It was very nice and was a great space for our family of 10. Beach access was adequate but could be a little difficult in the very busy times of summer.
4.9
The home was VERY clean and beautifully decorated with a beachy feel but not overdone - just right with a welcoming warm and comfy feeling.
The pictures are accurate. Very spacious for our group of 10, 5 adults and 5 children. Having beach chairs already there was a plus. Whenever we had an issue, Aresa was VERY prompt in addressing them. Couldn't have asked for better communication.
As said in some other review, wish it was closer to the beach. We shuttled with our cars because public parking for the beach is VERY limited. We would rent a golf cart if we stay there again. Then we wouldn't have so much sand in our cars.
Note: In one of the descriptions it said there were some basic spices in the home. We couldn't find any (maybe because of Covid?) so we went out and bought them. If we had known, we could have brought those from home, but not a big deal.
A lovely home!

Some noise issues - they were finishing a build next door. Ice maker broken. One shower built up while showering and drained really slowly, upstairs the air conditioning didn't seem to be distributed properly - 2 bedrooms cold, 2 bedrooms hot. No sound/blue tooth system for inside or out, This was NOT the Manager Aresa's fault. Was told they had no control over appliances and first service call was in August. As I said, Aresa was great and did everything she could to help ensure our family vacation was a good one. And it was. I'm a believer that issues just arise when renting. Expensive but worth it. Thank you Aresa for helping us all.

Family vacay
We enjoyed MiMis house and found property as advertised. Despite the air conditioning issue the first few days, all was well. The property manager was attentive to the issue until resolved. Our family was able to have privacy as well as spend time together. We enjoyed our trip.

First time Destin vacation
I traveled to Destin with my husband 2 teenagers and some of their friends. The house was in a great location. It also had plenty of room inside for all of us. We rented a golf cart which got us to all the places we wanted to travel to. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful family vacation spot!
The house was amazing! It was so clean and smelled fresh when we arrived. It had everything we needed. The property manager answered all my questions so quickly. The kids enjoyed the pool right outside the patio door!
The pool door alarm was the best safety devise for kids and grown ups! The only thing I would changed, is to put the house right on the beach . haha!. It was about a 12 minute walk.
4.9
We all had a wonderful stay. The pool, while smaller than I thought, was the perfect adjunct to a beautiful house with great appointments. All in all, a fabulous week!

30A+++++ This house is a home and it is gorgeous!!!
The house and location are spot on with the VRBO description. A short walk or drive to the beach - Lovely beach access as there are restrooms and ample parking. The home itself is absolutely a stunner -- Everything about this home is gorgeous, well maintained, comfortable, stocked well and so inviting. Aresa the property manager was awesome!! She answered any and all questions she truly cares about Mimi's Place and takes great pride in it. We didn't endure any issues except "learning" the AC control, but Aresa following up immediately and we were impressed. Every detail in this home was not overlooked; the pool was perfect and really cool at night with the lights!! The restaurants within walking distance were amazing! Blue Marble was my favorite, exceptional food and the staff were great. We look forward to another trip down to this beautiful beach home! Book NOW you will not be disappointed!

We had a great stay! The location was great and the house, pool and communication could not have been better.

Everything about this property and the property manager exceeded our expectations. It is so clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need. The beds were really nice and all rooms had shades, which is a big plus with little kids. When we reached out to the property manager about anything she was very responsive and helpful. This place is a quick walk to the beach and if you chose to drive there we had no trouble finding a parking spot. Quick walk to ice cream, bakery, restaurants. Easy bike or drive into Grayton Beach for shopping. We had a great trip and would definitely return to this house!
