Family Beach Vacation
From 3 to 63 and all ages in between had a wonderful time at the Sea Turtle house! It was the perfect place for all 9 of us! We couldn’t have asked for a better view of the beautiful Emerald Coast. We used to stay in a condo, but this townhouse was so much better! I highly recommend this place & will definitely be a repeat customer!

Sea Turtle House is perfect
This place was perfect for our family. I went with my wife and two young kids, my wife's parents, and my wife's little sister. There was plenty of space for all of us. The best part was that it only takes 30 seconds to walk from the backdoor to the beach. Will definitely be back.

We love to stay away from condos for more space on the beach. We were nervous about this location but we had plenty of space! Beautifully decorated, clean, and the owner welcomed questions. So glad we found this place. We will stay again!

This house will not disappoint anyone looking for a very clean, well equipped kitchen with a home owner that took care of all the little detail from games to extra sunglasses beach towels.

Best house on the best section of the beach!
The Sea Turtle House is truly awesome. Very clean, comfortable and classy. What you see in the pictures is what you get. Completely furnished with everything you need. Outstanding hosts as well. But the best part is the location...the house is located along a more quiet part of the beach. The views of the beach are outstanding from both inside and out. Simply put, you will love the Sea Turtle House.

Helene and back
We arrived to a beautifully clean and well laid out home. Tastefully decorated and very functional. Everything we needed was available.Great views with an awesome deck and patio below that had a very nice gas grill and a two swings that my grandkids loved. The beach and water were the best I’ve experienced in years. Believe it or not we stayed through hurricane Helene and thankfully it landed far enough east of us that we didn’t even lose power. Highly recommend this place!

As perfect as you could want! Steps away from the beach, two balconies with beautiful views of the beach and water, plenty of space for all 8 of us. Plenty of privacy with one bedroom on bottom floor with access to patio and own en suite. Master suite was large with access to patio on third floor and a large en suite. Third bedroom spacious for the grandkids with built in bunk beds. Easy to secure your spot on the beach. Located close to restaurants, including our favorite BeachView, and shops. Neighbors were friendly. Created wonderful memories in a beautiful location!

Wonderful Beach Home
This house was absolutely gorgeous. This place was the best we stayed in. The view was a dream come true. I didn’t want to leave and neither did my husband or children. The host was very friendly and responsive. The house had everything you can think of that can be needed at a beach house. All was just so so cozy. It’s just so much to say but no words to describe the greatness. It sounds kind of weird but that’s how it is. The surrounding ,the serenity, the entertainment, the food, the beach, the house, the people, SIMPLY A++++++++++++ Thank you so so so much Mrs.Lagenia for sharing your home with us. God Bless

Magnificent Property!
Our family enjoyed staying at the Sea Turtle House for Christmas. The townhouse on the water beachfront with 3B/3.5B was a wonderful experience. We regularly visit the Gulf Coast; this property was ideal for our family. It ranks among the best properties that we have stayed in. It is nicely decorated, spacious, clean, and well-stocked. We enjoy cooking some meals while on vacation, and this house has all the appliances/cookware you need to prepare a delicious meal. The owners even labeled the cabinets and drawers for your convenience.
The sunrises and sunsets from the private balconies are spectacular. The house is also convenient to Destin and many quality restaurants.
The host was very responsive and gave us a detailed Sea Turtle House information Packet before our arrival. The packet was handy and provided information from check-in instructions, parking, home features, access codes, restaurants, check-out instructions, etc.
We would not hesitate to stay at this property in the future.
