Welcome to Beach Buck Destin in the Center of it All. One of the largest homes in this gated community and with private Gulf frontage! Beach Buck, with 8,035 sq ft of space under roof with plenty of room to host your family reunion, corporate retreat, church group visit, guys trip or gals trip with beachfront living with an elevator and its on-site work out room. Dunes of Destin has a community pool 1/4 mile of Beach Buck.

First, a little history about us…Why is it named Beach Buck? We started with VRBO around 8 years ago with our 1st of 7 lodges in Gatlinburg, Buckhead Lodge. For years, our guests have asked if we had anything to offer them at the beach. Well, when we lost our 1st lodge, Buckhead Lodge in the wildfires, 2016, we decided to give them a beach option.

Located in the heart and soul of Destin, Dunes of Destin is a private, gated community. This upscale community is one of the most exclusive vacation communities Destin has to offer! Amenities include a private beach, a community pool, gazebos and a private lake with beautiful fountains that are lighted and look stunning at night. This community is beautifully maintained and lovely to stroll at any time of day.

Dunes of Destin is just minutes from everything the area has to offer. There is something for everyone in the family! You may enjoy world class shopping at one of the areas many shopping centers – Destin Commons, Silver Sands Factory Stores, Harbor Walk Village and the shops at Baytowne Wharf. The Destin area is home to countless award winning restaurants, nationally renowned golf courses and many great outdoor and indoor activities.

We have always held our guests in high esteem and cared for their health as well. We have our own commercial washer and dryer machines that are never integrated with anyone else's linens but ours. We have always incorporated bleach cleaning but have also added alcohol cleaning of high traffic locations such as tv remotes, light switches, keypads, alarm pads, etc. For many years, we have utilized an HVAC UV light purification system. The benefits for that air purification system are:

Reduce almost all the bacteria and mold, as well as other pathogen agents that are airborne and therefore, travel through your house. The UV lights installed in the HVAC system don’t allow the buildup of any organic material inside the system itself that would, otherwise, harbor these pathogens.

In the absence of pathogen agents, mold, virus and bacteria, the incidence of colds and flu will also be reduced. As a result, the cost efficiency of UV lights will show itself in time, considering their health benefits.

Get rid of fouls smells. They are also caused by bacteria and fungus which give out a musty smell that spreads throughout the house.

Prevent algae growth.

Enjoy this extremely spacious 8 bedroom, 9 bath beachfront home located in Dunes of Destin. Walk to Big Kahuna, Dunkin Donuts, Hershey’s ice cream parlor, Mellow Mushroom and more. Experience the beauty in this magnificent private home with a residential elevator that accesses all 4 floors. Views from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th levels of the Gulf with a private dune walkover.

Level 1/Entertainment Level: Pool (heated in cooler seasons) with a hot tub (pre-programmed jets and heat 4:00 pm - 10:00 pm). Tiki Bar with commercial grill and Bluetooth speakers poolside! Indoor there's a flat screen tv, two sitting areas with 2 Queen Pull Out couches & 2 Twin Pull Out Chairs, ping pong table, foosball table and Ms Pacman Multicade Game (60 games), bar top table and chairs with a full bath.

Level 2/Living Room/Kitchen Level: King bed (sleeps 2) with private bath and Tommy Bahama Living Room furniture with Queen Pull Out Sofa (sleeps 2) on this level.

Property is excellent. lol amenities were in place. Cleanliness was certainly above average. Only negative observed was the difficult parking situation. Single lane driveway required frequent jingling of cars. Small inconvenience and I would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone with a large group.

Great location right on the beach!

We had a blast at the house! The pool was amazing, and we all loved the short walk from the house to the beach. We enjoyed having the chairs/umbrellas already set up for us too! There was more than enough space for three families. We look forward to coming back in the future!

We stayed for a week with two other families. The house is great- plenty of room. Very well stocked. Excellent location! Loved walking out to the beach, the pool, the hot tub, and grilling by the pool. Love the number of refrigerators/freezers and washer/dryers. Easy walk to grocery and other stores.

Loved our stay!

We had a great week at this property! We loved all the space and the kids loved the arcade game in the bottom level! We had 8 adults and 12 kids and had way more than enough room for us all! Due to the timing of our rental, the heated pool and hot tub was a huge benefit (and one of the reasons we choose the property). The owner/property manager was also great to deal with. There was an issue that arose after the rental preceding ours and she made sure it was fixed early in our stay.

Stunning Beach Home

From the views to the amenities to the layout....couldn't have imagined a more perfect vacation home! Everything we could have hoped for and more. The condition was immaculate and modern. The layout provided both space for family time and for privacy. We look forward to returning here next summer and for many more summers to come.

Beautiful beach

Love destin. We’ve stayed in the city many times and really loved this house. The beach access is fantastic. The house is very large with comfortable beds, room to spread out and have your own space. The Jack and jill bathroom on third floor does NOT open into the front bedroom so that person goes down the hall to use the bathroom. Not a big deal but FYI The kitchen is a little small for the size of the house. And you should bring paper plates as there are 11 glass plates and a few plastic so not enough for a big crowd. Overall, perfect house for a large gathering of people who loved the beach. Views were fantastic

Summer Family Vacation for lots of ages!

The location of the house is fabulous! The gated community was nice during a very busy week. Having the beach monitored was certainly a plus. The owner/manager communication was fabulous! We had a couple of issues arise and she promptly took care of them!! The online pictures of the house were taken sometime ago as renters have certainly used the property..our best description would be it’s “tired”. The beds are a little worn and the furniture in the main area needs some attention… the sofa has clearly been sat on with wet swimsuits as it has an interesting odor and the end tables are super wobbly watch putting drinks on them. Kitchen is well stocked with plenty of pots/pans/utensils lots of room to put things away. The large fridge downstairs was a plus for extra space.

Looking for a place in Destin, the search ends here!

Pros------ Well, where do I begin? Nothing but positive things in and around this property. - Location....perfect! Right on the beach, no obstructions whatsoever. Numerous oceanfront rooms with amazing beach, sunrise, and sunset views. Located right off the main highway, very easy to find. Shops, restaurants, grocery stores, all within walking distance. -Cleanliness....Top notch 👌. Beds, kitchen, living rooms, gameroom, bathrooms, all wiped down and sanitized. We immediately sensed that special cleaning precautions were used due to current situation we're all faced with (cv19). -Security...very safe and private gated community with gate codes. We walked with small children and felt safe at all times in community and on the beach. Police patrolled every morning, not being nosey, just was present to offer assistance if need be. -Kitchen...well equipped for chefs in the family and they didn't complain about not having this kind of pot and pan, or this kind of cooking utensil; everything needed to prepare in home meals were neatly in it's own place. The outside grilll area at the pool tiki bar was definitely a hit. -Kids... The gameroom, private pool and hot tub hit the spot. Need I say more? We can go on and on about every wonderful detail of this property. The communication with owner was great and she (Tari) sent all needed information ahead of time to make sure our stay was perfect. -Pricing...Very competitive. We stayed December 2020 so I'm sure pricing changes with the seasons and availability. Cons--- We could only stay 1 week.

A gem

Our family of 19 were so impressed with the accommodations. 8 adults and 11 kids ranging from 8-17. The 4 master suites were perfect for the adults…..each with a private balcony. So conveniently located we were able to walk to souvenir shops, fish market, ice cream and candy store. Publix is just a few miles away. Spent most of our time on the beach but did go deep sea fishing and caught plenty of fish for dinner. We have stayed at many VRBOs in many locations, but we all agreed…..this was our favorite. It was a 10. Thank you to our host Tari. The few times we had questions, she responded very quickly. We hope to book again.

About the host

Host profile image
My name is Tari. While I am most familiar with the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg, TN area, the same things that guests want there can be and are applied in Destin. :) So that's what we've done.

Why they chose this property

The home is HUGE! Over 8,000 ft under roof after you figure the balconies and porches and exercise room situated on a private beach. Destin is becoming a mini-Pigeon Forge area with similar attractions there as found in Pigeon Forge so it's a nice connection for our guests.

What makes this property unique

An elevator to all 4 floors, beach front home, gated community, 2 miles to Destin Harbor.
