Older Siblings and Mom

This is the 4th time we have stayed here in a year and it’s perfect for us. Me (68), my sister (66), our brother (70), and our mom (96). We have more than enough room. We go there to visit our cousins and there’s room for them to come visit there! I’m sure we’ll be back there again!

Best stay for the beach

This property was a perfect location in a decent neighborhood (it's own little cult de sac). The communication with the owner was wonderful and the property was CLEAN. We loved the amenities and attention to detail (board games, laundry facility, makeup remover wipes). We will definitely rent again!

Family beach trip with friends

We visited for 4th of July weekend 2024 and absolutely annoyed our stay! Our two families have two 3 year olds and it was so much more comfortable staying in a house (and not two separate rooms). Everything was exactly as described and all amenities were just what we needed. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful!!

This was my family’s first vacation in a vacation home and it was amazing. The location is close to everything. The property manager was very responsive the entire stay. My fiancé and 6 children was very comfortable and enough space for everyone. Beds were comfortable in all 3 rooms. The backyard was great for the kiddos as well bc it was a private fenced in backyard. Overall a great experience… We will be staying here our next trip.

Florida family vacation

This rental met our needs. Rented for a week long stay in the Destin area. Easy access to several beaches. There were a few beach things provided, including a couple fild up chairs. This was very helpful Neighborhood is fairly quiet. House was clean with all kitchen items we needed. Bathrooms and laundry area were good, as well. Seating in living room was somewhat limited for our 6 person family, but we brought in chairs from the porch. Virtually no communication from the owner. I had to reach out for the front door code after getting initial check-in email and notification. There was no follow-up from the owner upon our arrival or during our stay.

Great experience!

First of all the host, Christina, was VERY welcoming! She sent me a welcome message right away. Christina was very helpful for any local amenities and was available for any questions. There were 4 of us and the house was very clean and the perfect size. Everything you needed, and a few extras, was there and available. I would 100% recommend!

Great Place! Clean! Amenities! Location, Location!!

This Family retreat was great for me and 3 of my retired military friends. We went pier fishing on Okaloosa Island and booked deep sea fishing trip. The first thing I noticed on this house was how clean and well equipped it was. We didn't want for anything, we had everything we needed. The location was great, probably two blocks from US HWY 98 (the Strip). The 3 bedrooms and bunk beds more than accommodated us far as sleeping arrangements. If you are looking for a place to stay, close to everything, this is the place. We Will Be Back!! thank you so much for the accommodations!!
