This was the first time renting a property for our family vacation. We were a little nervous because we didn’t know what to expect. Everything changed once we got there. The location was just within walking distance to the beach. The rental property was very nice and cleaned. We were very happy with the rental and the location. I really recommend this rental.

Property is exactly as advertised. Cute and convenient. The beach access is so easy, even than large condos on the beach! Even tho we we were downstairs we could see the beach on occasions. The owner was wonderful, very helpful and accessible. Will definitely stay again, if we are back in the area!!

The condo was great. It was close to beach and pool. Was a very nice place to stay and would stay there again. Owners were great to work with and no problems at all with our stay.

We absolutely loved our stay at this property and the location was perfect for our family! Close to the beach and also having the pool were excellent amenities! Check-in was a breeze! Only critique would be that one set-up to the bedroom was kind of a thorough fair walk way from top level to bottom level (but that is me just being picky). We would absolutely stay again at this property and we had a great time. Traveled with 5 adults and 4 children. We were a bit snug but all in all, Great property!

Perfect location! We had an amazing week in Destin. The villa is so close to the beach - just a very short walk right across the street. We had 8 in our group and we were all very comfortable. The villas were very nice and clean. The owner, Laura, couldn't have been more nice and accommodating. It was such a relaxing vacation - we miss the beach views and the sand and the turtles in the lake! Can't wait to come back again.

We had the entire villa (Both upstairs and downstairs) and had a wonderful time. The beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked, bathrooms are spacious, plenty of space to spread out and enjoy this perfect beach vacation spot! The beach access is easy and the pool a very short easy walk. Because this is a corner unit, you have very easy access to the parking lot and not noisy neighbors. The view of the beach from both balconies/porches are beautiful for watching sunsets and the back of the villa overlooking the lake offers beautiful sunrises. The villa is close to incredible restaurants and a short distance to outlet and Destin Commons shopping. THe perfect location for families seeking beach vacations and for girls get a ways!

Such a wonderful rental property! The ocean view is magnificent - just across the way. Loved sitting on the balcony and watching and listening to the surf. The rooms were very inviting and home-like. Kitchen was fully stocked. The beds were very comfortable. Would definitely recommend this rental to friends!

We had a great time. We stayed in the upper unit and the view was wonderful. We will be back!

We chose the Villa for our stay for a later in life "destination wedding". We brought our teenage and adult children and two granddaughters and had a intimate wedding on the beach. The location of the Villa is perfect. Our wedding party walked across the street and the Pastor and photographer were waiting for us! We rented the entire Villa. The views are incredible. The Villa is beautiful, has everything you need to enjoy a day on the beach, fish in the lake or prepare a delicious meal for a family of 12. There are many things to do nearby, but you don't have to spend money to be entertained. We brought games and played some of the games furnished at the villa! We made long lasting memories and will always remember this vacation. We plan to return to the Villa!

We had a great time in Destin and at the villa. We rented both floors of the villa for 2 families of 5 and it was great. The location, the view and the accommodations were perfect for us. The beach was just across the street and the pool was a very short walk. We loved just watching people and the ocean from the balcony. The villa was stocked with anything and everything that we needed. We can't wait to come back again! On a side note, don't try to cross the Mid-bay bridge on a Saturday evening. It took us over 1 1/2 hours to get 5 miles waiting to go through the toll.

This was a great vacation spot for our family of 4 (kids ages 5,11). The condo was nicely decorated, with very comfortable beds, lots of towels and just about everything we needed for the kitchen. The unit was very clean upon arrival, instructions from the owner were very easy to understand. The views from the front balcony were great of the ocean and in the evening we did a lot of people watching from there. The rear views from the balcony were great too especially of the sunset. The kids really loved feeding the turtles and fish from the balcony. The pool area was nice with plenty of seating. It really is just a few steps away. There was plenty of parking and the traffic was not too bad, making it easy to go to and from the beach. My only complaint is that we brought too much stuff to the beach and had to haul it back and forth every day (I will remember to pack smaller next time). The in-unit washer and dryer (hi efficiency) were easy to use and are located in the second bedroom. The second bedroom was small but the kids really didn't spend any time in there because we were so busy with other fun things to do. Many things are close- restaurants, shopping, mini golf, ice cream parlor, etc. it was a great trip! Thanks to the wonderful owners for making it so easy! We hope to be back again in 2015!

We LOVED our stay at the Villa!! It was so convenient to the beach and the pool and surrounding areas. I did miss being able to sit on the balcony people watching or watching the ocean waves, so next year, I will request the upstairs unit! :) The villa was perfect for our family of 4!

I do not have enough space here to talk about how wonderful our stay at the Villa was! I can definitely tell you that we will be back, and we are counting down the days! The main draw was the emerald water and can I tell you that it didn't disappoint! We even inadvertently swam with dolphins one day - an amazing experience! The second draw is the lovely Villa and the perfect location. Our family of 5 had planned many activities to keep the kiddos occupied (11, 8 and 7) and the fun going; however, it was totally unnecessary. The Villa was perfect - we stayed in 3A - and we didn't need to add any additional activities because the Villa had it all! Excellent views of the ocean in the front and a beautiful lake with turtles and fish in the back. Both views had balconies, which was very nice. The pool was so close and refreshing! The beds were super comfortable. The place was clean, cozy, and there's a front loading washer and dryer in the bunk bed room. Our only challenge was doing laundry because we didn't want to do it at night while the kiddos were sleeping. And we didn't want to do it during the day because we were at the beach, the lake or the pool! The kitchen was very well equipped - so well equipped that we only ventured out twice and cooked almost all of our meals in so we could soak up more of the lovely views! Please note that there is only one bathtub/shower, which worried us when we got there, but it worked out perfectly for the 5 of us. Laura was amazing. We had a very small issue due to a power outage and she was responsive and had a solution within the hour. She went above and beyond to ensure that we enjoyed every single second of our stay. We were delighted with all of the amenities. The beach was not crowded, the Crab Trap is within walking distance if you want to enjoy a night out. We ventured to the beach after dark and could see fireworks - we assume that one of the piers we read about was launching them but we honestly couldn't bear to leave our spot to explore. We also had fun with catch/release of sand crabs (bring your flashlights and a net!) I have recommended Destin and the Villa to many friends. We were all VERY sad to leave. It's been almost a month and the kids are still talking about our vacation daily. That's definitely a first! I hope you and your family have as many wonderful memories on your vacation as my family has enjoyed. Thanks, Laura and Gregg for a wonderful stay! 5 stars just isn't enough!

My brother had stayed in these villas for a few years now and he had recommended them to us. We were not disappointed. The villas are very clean and are in a great location. The view from the balconies are unbelievable. We loved having a king sized bed in the master and our two boys loved having their own room with bunk beds! We enjoyed relaxing mornings in the condo and would pack a lunch for the beach. Destin is any easy place to navigate and has plenty of things to do to keep you busy but its the beach that does it for us. I have never seen a more beautiful beach than Destiny beach. We also watched pods of dolphins swimming by on a daily basis. We are going to return and stay in this same condo. The owner is very easy to work with and was helpful. Best beach vacation we have ever taken. Oh and the lake is a great place to watch turtles and to go fishing.
