Wonderful house with everything you need for a great trip to the beach. Loved the beach wagon and toys and lots of outdoor seating. We loved having coffee each morning on the upstairs private deck.

Overall experience was great - I do not recommend renting golf carts when renting homes in this complex. There is no designated parking for the beach so after renting 2 golf carts for a party of 10 we ended up walking to the beach or using the trolley within the community instead. There are 2 public beach areas that are accessible by golf cart but are first come first serve so we never managed to find a parking spot.
Check in was quick and easy. Overall stay was great

Great location! Easy to get to the beach. Nice big, clean house. Our family enjoyed it and will be coming back.
We loved our stay at the property! Within walking distance of the beach, house was clean, neighborhood was quiet. My children enjoyed all the amenities! We are looking forward to planning our next stay!
My family and I had a great stay. Dog friendly community, short walk to the beach, all the comforts of home. What more could we ask for? Overall the home was nice and had everything we could have asked for as far as making our stay feel like home. Plenty of amenities and space for the whole family.
Whole family enjoyed the stay at this miramar home. Short walking distance to the beach and pool. We liked that its location is right in the middle of everything with a short drive. House was clean and well equipped. Will definitely return soon!!
A perfect house in a perfect little gated community. We all were very happy and comfortable. Loved it!!!

The house was clean and conveniently located to beach. The only issue we encountered was the lock on the front door that did not work well. We were able to work around that by leaving out of the side door.

We enjoyed our stay here. The outdoor patio was awesome and a great way to unwind in the evening. Property was clean and comfortable. Calling this property a 4 bedroom is a stretch, as the 4th room - a bunk - room is only 6'x9'. The living spaces are smaller than other houses that we have stayed at in Emerald Shores.

Love Coconut Cove. It was perfect for our group and great location. It was great being able to get a discount on a golf cart that really helped out on getting around. The only thing that was not good was not being able to relax and watch TV in the evenings in the master bedroom. Never could get it to work but not that big of a deal. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook and plenty of space for food storage. Will definitely book again with Glass Casa.

Reviewer Comments:
Arrival and checkin were seemless. Due to husband's medical conditions, I had rented a golfcart. When I inquired about it, I was told it was against HOA rules so my reservation was canceled by host. I was told I would receive a full refund. However, I later found out they were allowed and I notified Host. They made arrangements to secure one but it was too late as we had made other plans. Seems to me, the Host should know updated property rules. Some maintenance items needed to be addressed as well, cabinet door in kitchen falling off and Master bedroom threshold was broke.
Overall we had a great stay and the house served us well. We did read all of the literature regarding the fridge, and I can tell you right now that the fridge in the kitchen DOES NOT work like it should. We left the fridge/freezer temps at 0° & 40° like asked and we had picked my daughter up ice cream and went to give her some the next night and it was melted. Not even edible. All of the drinks for the whole week that we stayed were barely cold. We ended up just using the fridge in the laundry room that worked like a champ. The house is quite outdated on the interior from the decor to the furniture to the wall colors. The flooring could use some TLC because some areas actually pose a trip hazard. We could only use one of the wagons while there because the one wagons tire was blown and they did offer to fix the tire for us to use it while we were there. Really just the fridge in the kitchen was the biggest bother for us.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
nice but smaller then anticipated. Worked for what we needed.
Overall it was nice. We were able to do a lot off property. Dryer took days to dry a load, main freezer didn’t make ice. Beds were comfortable and layout works. Grill looked like it had never been cleaned so we skipped using it. Outdoor shower was a nice plus. Kids were disappointed in the basketball court being 1/2 of the tennis court. Shuffle board doesn’t exist or we couldn’t find it. We went to look at how the private beach access worked but never used it. We couldn’t take any tents/ canopys or chairs through the private area and there was nothing but beach chair service on that whole section of beach that runs a min of $50 a day. We used public beach access instead and enjoyed that very much. Would recommend the house as a good site but for more like max -6 adults and 2-4 kids. Although None of the kids wanted to be in the bunk bed room/ closet. It was so tiny. It was a Nice stay for our first time in Destin. Location was nice outside all the construction and traffic in that area.
Just to be fair, our overall experience was great. The Xplorie freebies were nice and everyone there was always super helpful. We couldn’t find a use for the additional $200 credit provided by LiveWell since the chair service for this beach isn’t a part of LiveWell and we could only get chairs delivered to the house but still couldn’t take them to the beach to use.
Thanks for sharing your home with us. It was an unforgettable trip and the home and neighborhood is beautiful as is Florida.
The house was perfect for 2 families. Loved the location as it was within a short walk to the beach. The house was close to everything you'd need from things to do, places to eat, and grocery stores.

Reviewer Comments:
We loved staying here, 2 adults, one 13 year old and two 19 year olds and a dog. The upstairs was great for privacy for older kids and they loved having their own deck. I loved yoga on the patio and the outdoor lighting was lovely around the deck. VERY quiet neighborhood, and we felt safe. Great location, great privacy, pools were fun--we preferred the heated one, beds and furniture were very comfy. Heather was receptive to many emails ahead of time since it was our first time here. Things to a note: Bring your own tupperware,spices and a few more cutting boards if you plan on cooking. We were enchanted with the home, and the area. Thank you Coconut Cove, we will be back.
