Great location with gorgeous private beach and private pool / hot tub which our entire family thoroughly enjoyed. Communication with the host was easy and efficient, as was the check in. We had a group of 12 adults and there was room to spare! Loved the week at this property!
The pool was wonderful. Hot tub great once it was repaired on our 3rd day. Parking was an issue for us, we had 5 vehicles, smallest being a Traverse. That was the one with the car seats so we needed it every time we left and it was the only one that “ish” fit in the back of the garage. We barely fit 5 vehicles. We had 13 adults and 10 kids. Very clean, lots of supplies, kids loved the games. A little difficult to communicate, because I had emails and phone numbers. I used a number supplied, sometimes got responses and even calls! Sometimes no response. A little confusing as to which was best option. We had a great time and I would have rated higher if we didn’t have trouble with the hot tub and trying to explain that to the owners, and the parking situation.

Thanks for staying at Beach Buck Destin! :D. We easily fit 6 automobiles including extended cab trucks when we stay. All that information is supplied and noted on the site along with the parking passes. In Dunes of Destin and beach front - our property has the most parking spaces available. Most only have 4. So having 6 is a huge plus. We even had one guest park a trailer in the garage with his group!
Remember, we never make guests pay for the pool or heating it or the spa. We did find out that the storm that came through Saturday night tripped not only a circuit but burned the relay in the pool box as indicated by you. So you said it worked Saturday upon arrival but not Sunday. We had it repaired Monday.
I loved my stay at this property! The space is beautifully designed and thoughtfully laid out, with every detail making it feel comfortable and easy to settle into. The amenities were excellent and everything I needed was provided. It truly felt like a home away from home, and I’d happily stay here again.

Great location , but traffic is challenging and hard to get around because it’s impossible to make a left turn to get out. Great view and private beach access and private beach was worth everything

When I have an issue turning left, I either go through the shopping center to the left and that makes it easier or I turn right and make a U turn or work my way back around the back streets at high traffic times. So it's really not impossible to make a left hand turn. Sometimes, one has to think outside the box.
Everything was as expected. The house was incredibly clean and everything worked. We have typically had issues with pools and hot tubs but all was great here!! We had a small issue with the TV and they sent someone over right away. The only issue that was not able to be resolved was the elevator. Fortunately, my elderly father was not able to join us on the trip because that would have been an issue.
Our family group of 12 people in their 60s and 70s enjoyed a fantastic time at this home! The ocean and beach views were amazing! The owner and property manager were great.
We had 4 families staying together. This provided plenty of room for everyone to have their space and come together to hang out. We loved it so much we already booked again for next year. Location is perfect.
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.

Thank you Mark. When we stay, we leave all our keys by the front door on the stand for quick and easy access to maneuver. Works great for us. Glad we have 6 car parking where most have 4. :)
We stayed here for a second time (last was 3 years ago) and had a great time again! The host was very responsive to all of our needs and the house fit our group of 17 perfectly. Definitely a recommended property.

Great review! Thanks Shawn! We hope to have ya back once again! :D
Property was as stated. Direct beach access. We loved the view and the outside pool/hot tub and tiki hut! Tari was very responsive and very easy to work with.
The outside area is beautiful. Big pool and hot tub, and the beach chairs and umbrellas were a special added bonus! Close to everything you need on vacation. Host is very attentive to any need or request. Salt like sand and clear waters make the beach so inviting.

If you want a gorgeous home on the beach this is your place. The beds are comfy, the house is spacious, it's in a great area and there is so much space to spread out. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Fabulous stay in such a beautiful home on the beach. Twelve couples had plenty of room for privacy and plenty of room for meals and fun. Thank you so much!

Awesome House
Our stay at Beach Buck Destin was one of our best family vacations. The house is amazing(loved the pool & hot tub) and so is the private beach with complementary beach chairs and umbrellas! We hated to leave, we loved Destin.

Everything was awesome. Kitchen and dining area lay out is perfect. Master bedroom is large with great closet space. We enjoyed cooking by the tiki bar and pool is a great place to relax after a day on the beach.

About the host
Hosted by Tari Furey - Buckhead Rentals
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.
