Excellent stay for our high school senior group of girls and moms! House had plenty of sleeping spaces, the girls really enjoyed being in the bunk beds together. Shuttle to beach was very helpful. Neighborhood pool was a fun spot to meet other people. House was clean, well equipped and comfortable for a group. Hope to be back soon!
Nikki and Paul were the most AMAZING and accommodating hosts for our family. The house was in immaculate condition, the pool was perfect (we had 4 kids ages 9-13 with us), and the gated community of crystal made for so many new friendships for our littles with post swimming football, whiffleball and scootering. The grill was used, beach accessories everything you could possibly need, house came with extra coolers and ALL of the seasonings / condiments. Highlight was the golf cart. We used that every day to cruise the strip, venture to restaurants, and visit other friends staying in the area outside of the gated community. Their surprise Crumble cookie gift on our last day may have won our kids over, but their open communication and beautiful home won the adults. We highly recommend this VRBO!
We had a wonderful stay at Beach Bound Destin! The house was clean and very well equipped. We had 5 adults & 7 children (ages 1-9yo) and we all fit comfortably. The pool was a favorite & only a short walk away. There were several beaches within a short driving distance, as well as a shuttle that would take you to a local beach (we did not take the shuttle or rent the golf cart). There were many family-friendly activities to do in the Destin area. The hosts, Nicky & Paul, were great to work with. They answered our questions & responded to our texts in a timely manner. We definitely will be going back!
