We had a wonderful stay! We brought four generations of family together! The house is nicely appointed and thoughtfully stocked with anything you could need from kitchen supplies to pack and plays and toys for the kids. The pool was a hit with our family as we were there on a very busy weekend! We did the beach early and then came back to the privacy for our own space to play the rest of the day! We cooked two nights, once with the grills and really enjoyed our time together! The host was easy to reach and work with and we did have smoke detector start beeping on our last night and the PM was there within an hour with a new battery! Couldn’t ask for anything more!! Enjoy this beautiful home! It’s worth it!!

This was a perfect place to stay. We were 20 minutes from our venue and very close to the beach. Loved Camille's for coffee and treats. The distribution of the house was perfect for us. Pool was warm enough without the extra heating and the golf cart was so fun to take my mom out on since she has trouble walking. Thank you!

My husband and I live in northern Minnesota; our kids live all over and all of my children loved the idea of a beach family reunion…I found this beach house and saw the great reviews and the accommodations especially the idea of the king beds for each couple in our family (5 couples) with their own private bathroom..we had 20 all together (10 grandchildren) and we all had our own space! The pool was great, the beach access was wonderful and we loved the residential aspect so we could take walks..As the families arrived they all were amazed with this home..they all loved it and we had the most memorable family reunion! My only complaint is the dishwasher and garbage can location.. wish the garbage pull out was at the end of the L shape and the dishwasher next to the sink.. One more thing ; we had an issue in one bedroom with a power outage; I texted Gary about it and within the hour a maintenance crew was knocking on our door!! Thank you Gary and Susie..we are hoping to come back!!

My family and I had a blast. The place was beautiful. The location was close to the beach and the equipment and wagons for the beach were awesome. The only tiny complaint I have is the lack of nice cookware. The nonstick frying pans all had scratches in the coating because there weren't any nylon or silicone utensils. Other than that, the place was amazing and I would definitely rent from this host again.

We recently stayed at this property with our family, which included 8 adults and 9 children from 9 months to 10 years old. There was plenty of room for all of us to spread out. The house had everything we needed and more. I think everyone agreed that the beds and pillows were comfortable. It was the perfect location and just a short walk to the beach. The heated pool allowed the kids to swim the entire time from sunrise to sunset. We would definitely recommend this property to others and if we are ever in the Destin area again, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Beautiful home and the owners were very responsive to our many questions. Book the house, you won’t regret it!

This property was everything it listed and more! The home is beautifully decorated and took into consideration everything guests may need/want! Everything you needed was within walking distance of the home! We booked our stay because our daughter was having a destination wedding and the location of the home on the quaint courtyard made the perfect setting for bridal photos! This is a must-stay home!!

This house was a great house for our family of 14 that stayed. Everyone had their own bed and space. The host were great to work with answered all questions and very timely with anything that we asked. The pool was great and very happy that we spend the money on heating it. The location is prefect for that balance of spending time at the beach, shopping and food. I would recommend staying here to any of our friends and other family members!

This home was perfect for our 3 families to stay ranging in age from 1 to 67. The kitchen is amazing! A quick walk to the beach! Or spend time in the pool. Owner respond right away to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

The house is beautiful, the neighborhood is adorable and it is CLOSE TO EVERYTHING! We absolutely loved this house! The kitchen was so well stocked, we felt like we were cooking in our own kitchen. The beds were SO COMFORTABLE! We loved how close the beach was...just a very short walk and we were sitting in the sand. We could not stop talking about how we just loved the house, the location and the beauty of the area. 10/10 definitely recommend! Seriously couldn't think of anything to even try to complain about!

Very nice home and plenty of space

Hosts communicated from the start, were helpful and clear with instructions and questions we had. The property and house were an absolute gem! Pool, distance from beach, and overal house were perfect! Would recommend it and would absolutely use again. Thank you!

The house was great. It was able to accommodate our wedding party. The neighbors were a little annoying 🙄 but the home had everything that we needed. The hosts were very responsive to any questions. Thanks for allowing us to share a momentous occastion at your home.

What a great way to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with family. The house was awesome.

Nice home, would recommend

This home lived up to all the reviews. We had 16 of us and there was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen had all the appliances we needed. The pool was the biggest hit with everyone. Thank you so much.

We loved the home and the close proximity to the beach. Thank you!

We had a great time and the place was so awesome!

House was awesome! A small walk away from the beach and close to all the restaurants and shops you would like to go to.

The property was large enough to accommodate all of us. The pool was a definite plus.

Perfect size for 5 families with 5 kids 7 and under! Available beach gear was great! Pool was a hit with the kids! Dining table was perfect for our large group. Kids loved the bunk room and their own hang out space. Plenty of places to be together or spread out

Susan and Gary’s home Sunshine in Destin is a well kept well equipped home. They are wonderful hosts. Our family enjoyed Miramar beach and all that Destin has to offer. The golf cart came in very handy with our group. Well worth the rental fee.

The house design and layout were unique in a positive manner in my estimation. Every "new" person walking into the house exclaimed how great they thought the house was. The bedrooms were great for a family reunion as were the kitchen, dining and relaxing areas. The common areas on second and third floor with sleeper couches made for great expansion room. The furniture inside and out were good for sitting, eating and relaxing (nothing worse than uncomfortable furniture that is fancy looking or glass top wrought iron dining tables in a high traffic beach house). There was plenty of space for extra family coming in for dinner - dining prep and sitting, inside and out sitting useable. The kitchen was, according to my daughter, the most well stocked she has experienced and she's done this for decades. A plus was that there were balconies to both east and west. There was shade on the pool and gathering porch in afternoon and evening. Ceiling fans help with bugs and heat on the gathering porch. The pool was well used by all ages with a chest full of pool accessories. There was close and easy access to the public beaches and commercial areas.

House is absolutely beautiful. It was everything it was advertised and more. We had 13 guests, there was plenty of space for all of us and more. Beach is very close. Gary and Susie were very accommodating when we wanted to rent golf cart upon arrival. The grills were very dirty but that was easy to overcome. If you are looking for a place to rent for vacation, this is 100% the house for you!! Thank you Gary and Susie!!

Absolutly fabulous.

The property was as described. Super close the the ocean beach and Camille's for coffee, smoothies, breakfast and lunch ! Very walkable and groceries were super easy with delivery. The pool was amazing! The kids were loving it!! We had 10 adults 9 kids ages 3-11 and a 2 month old. We had plenty of room for everyone. The 2 pack and plays came in handy. There were beach carts and umbrellas which made our trips to the beach much easier. Plenty of dishes and cookware. The beverage fridge made for more room in food fridge. This was our 1st vacation with all our children,spouses and grandchildren. Would definitely recommend!!

We stayed the first week in May to celebrate my retirement - a total of 13 in our group, ages from 35 to 62 very spacious and everyone had a wonderful time! The house is exactly as advertised and in excellent condition. The pool was great we all enjoyed it, beach towels were provide which was definitely convenient. The house is well stocked with all the amenities you’ll need including washing pods. Great location, the house is located within walking distance to the beach, Destin Commons, and restaurants. The host is great! I reached out to them several times very quickly to response! We all definitely enjoyed ourselves and loved this property. We’re looking forward to vacationing here again! almaj

The house was absolutely beautiful, very clean and lots of room. Would recommend this house.

We stayed here in late April 2023 - our group has 3 families with 6 adults and 7 kids total. It’s definitely spacious and would accommodate groups larger than ours. The house was clean, and came exactly as advertised; the pictures accurately represent the house in it’s current condition (overall condition was excellent). The house is very close to the beach, close enough to walk back and forth as needed. We opted for the heated pool and were very happy with the temperature of the pool during the week (April can still get chilly at night). If we come back to Destin we would stay here again. No complaints or improvements needed.

This place has it all! Plenty of space for all 16 of us to stretch out. Great location near the beach and shopping. The pool was a house favorite as was the golf cart! We loved our vacation in Destin and this rental is a big reason why.

We rented this house for our extended family trip! We had age ranges from under 2 to 70. Everyone enjoyed the house. Everyone appreciated having their own room with their own bathroom. The walk to the beach was short and the pool was great for the kids. We talked about returning before the trip was even over. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

The property is beautiful and very well maintained. From the outside it looks a little smaller than it actually is but once you're inside you discover that it is very roomy and are in awe. The floor plan and layout of the home was very nice and you can tell that some considerable thought went into the building of this home. The amenities were as advertised and added to our relaxing and enjoyable stay. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and thank the owners for making it available for our anniversary.

The whole family stayed here for our parent’s 50th wedding anniversary. This house was the perfect location. Super clean. Plenty of room. Such a great space! If we needed help, there was a quick response. Would recommend to anyone needing ample space for a family vacation!
