About this property

Villa Lago Luxury! Comfort Abounds! Steps to Baytowne Wharf, 2 Golf Carts!

Largest Floor Plan in Villa Lago! Payton's Place is a beautiful, incredibly comfortable beach retreat. This stylish home has all the comforts, equipment and amenities you and your family will need. Our home is located in Villa Lago, the newest single family neighborhood within the gates of the exclusive Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort. Sandestin boasts more than 7 miles of white sand beach and bayfront property, four championship golf courses, 15 world class tennis courts and 90 lakes that are great for fishing. Villa Lago is a bright, beautiful development surrounded by the Baytowne golf course.

Our house is two doors from the community pool in Villa Lago and is an easy short walk to the Baytowne Wharf (<.5mile), with family fun, shopping and dining, but go ahead and drive one of the two golf carts instead. The home has 2 golf carts, one 6 passenger cart and one 4 passenger cart. This home has 4 spacious comfortable bedrooms. Each bedroom has its own full bath. Our home sleeps 10 comfortably, all in their own beds. The house has 4 outdoor patios, several with seating. The main patio (back of house) off the kitchen is perfect for morning coffee or afternoon wine - down as the sun sets on the other opposite of the house. Our home is one of the largest four bedrooms in the neighborhood, and the extra space, in the bathrooms, bedrooms and living area, will immediately make you more comfortable.

The look and feel of this beautifully designed home will immediately put you and your guests in a vacation state of mind. The colors, finishes and furnishings are so relaxing, you may never want to go home! Stay a while....the house has everything you need for a convenient extended family beach and golf escape. Beach chairs, beach towels, a cooler and beach toys, plus a new Cornhole bag game set, footballs, a volleyball and more.

Inside the home, we have set the house to be as comfortable as possible for everyone. We have provided games, cards, puzzles and five flat screen TVs, with Apple TV on the large TV in the family room, for entertainment during that rare rain storm here in Paradise. There is extra seating at the large master dining table (10) and the large kitchen island (4).

The kitchen is also top shelf. A great place to cook and enjoy a family meal. New, premium stainless steel appliances, beautiful quartzite countertops, and all the convenience appliances you could ever need, it is also fully stocked with all the utensils you need to prepare those wonderful family meals. There is a new gas grill on the back patio, as well.

We feel this is the best location in Sandestin, which is the best community on the Emerald Coast for a beach holiday. We have made this a labor of love to create a beautiful home from which you can enjoy your fun and relaxing getaway. We think you will love it as much as we do.

Wonderful Vacation Home

Once again - this place was perfect for our annual family trip to Florida - our second year staying in this beautiful home and we all loved it just as much as last year. With 4 adults and 6 kiddos - we had plenty of room and it was so easy to get to the beach, Baytowne Wharf activities, shopping, etc. using the 2 golf carts included. The pool right next to the property was a big hit with the kids also. The home was very clean and well stocked with anything we needed. We all felt right at home the moment we walked in. The hosts were wonderful & responded right away to a few questions we had & want to say “thank you” for sharing your home & making our vacation extra special. We plan on booking again for next year also! Cindy B.

Great Stay

This was our family's first trip to Destin. This property was ideal for us. It was close to the community pool. The beach was a short golf cart ride away. I appreciated having all the necessary beach equipment to use. It saved us from having to buy it all. The resort was very nice and clean. I would definitely stay at this property again!

Family summer trip

The home is very accomodating for a larger, more grown up family. Very near the Baytowne Wharf area at Sandestin and the marina. The pool is smaller, but was nice for us throughout.

Beautiful home; great location

This was our 3rd stay in Sandestin and our 2nd in Vila Largo. This home has luxurious updates throughout the home that made our stay great. Nice little view our the back and great proximity to Baytown Wharf with lots to do especially with little kids. Having a second golf cart was a great bonus especially with a larger group.

Family Vacation

Fantastic property! Was everything we were looking for. The golf carts were a bonus and I’ll probably never book a property that doesn’t have them! House was clean, smelled amazing, close to everything, and quiet area. Owners were great to work with- our only issue was the internet went out and I couldn’t figure out how to reset the box. They responded immediately and all was good.

Awesome Property & Accommodations

This property is perfectly located in San Destin Village - literally a few steps from a pool, a 2-min golf cart ride to Baytowne Wharf and 6-min golf cart ride to Grand Boulevard shops and restaurants. Ben and Kim were very responsive and had the property in tip top shape for us. Highly recommended.

Love The Location

We had a very enjoyable stay. Only reason for 4 stars was we had to have several repairs during our stay. If not for those inconveniences we would rate it 5 stars. Luckily the owners were very responsive.

Great house

The house was clean and well stocked with the essentials. We have stayed in Villa Lago several times over the last 8 year and will stay at this home again. Having golf carts make the stay even better for running around the resort. We had one small issue and the owner got it handled asap to keep our good time going.

Outstanding Get Away Home!

I spent a week at the house with my family and some of my daughters friends. The house was absolutely amazing in its ability to accommodate a large group of guest comfortably. The house is very well appointed and the upkeep is outstanding! The family is specially enjoyed the two golf carts provided to venture around Sandestin with ease. You can’t go wrong with this house, we will certainly be back !

Excellent home away from home

Had to go to Destin unexpectedly and suddenly for a family emergency and not only were John and Michele so quick to respond but they even checked in the first night to make sure everything was ok. The house was gorgeous and had everything you needed including the use of a golf cart to get around. The kitchen was spacious and had all the cookware needed to make family dinners. Would stay again in a heartbeat. One of our favorite rentals yet.

Gorgeous Property

The property was exactly as described. Kim quickly answered any questions we had, and even invited us to check in earlier than the check in time. We all really enjoyed having 2 golf carts. Appreciated the detail in the home instructions. Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels provided. Loved seeing the newer beach chairs, we actually brought a couple of our own as so many times the beach chairs at rentals are old or broken, but this was not the case here. Plenty of beach towels in the laundry room as well. Overall great stay and loved this home.

Perfect!!

The house is immaculate! 4 bedrooms with their own bathrooms is the best! 2 golf carts was a must for us, you never have to get back in your car. The kitchen is huge and was the perfect place for us all to hang out. This was our 3rd time staying in Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort and it is hands down our favorite! The beach, pools, Baytowne Wharf, grocery store, restaurants....all right there! Last but not least, the ownwers are the best. We had a few questions in the beginning and they always responded quickly. We highly recommend.

Beautiful home located in a spectacular resort

We enjoyed our stay in this home which was beautifully decorated and spacious for our multi-family group. Sandestin resort is very nice with Baytowne Wharf located within the resort which was a short walk to shops and restaurants. Lots of scenic walkways throughout the resort. The golf cart was a real plus and a big help traveling to the beach each day. We really appreciated availability of beach chairs and umbrellas for use during our stay. The nearby pool was a bit small as we had older kids with us but would be great for younger children. John and Michelle were extremely attentive and responded promptly to all of our questions. Overall a great place to stay!

Beautiful, Impressively Stocked Home

We loved our stay! The house was beautiful and perfectly laid out for our group consisting of 5 adults and 5 children. The location was perfect and we enjoyed the use of the pools, the golf carts and all of the necessary beach equipment. The best part was that the house had all of the little things you need during the week— ziploc bags and plastic wrap, spices, pan spray... etc. we didn’t have to spend a fortune to purchase these small necessities. The speed limits in the neighborhood are a bit arbitrary (12 miles per hour???)!so make sure you pay attention! Great location, beautiful house and amazing neighborhood— we had a wonderful time!!!

We didn’t want to leave!!

Such a beautiful home! The home was well equipped, from the kitchen to toiletries! It was really just a perfect location. The golf carts were wonderful and for a group our size, it’s a good thing there were two. We shopped for a long time for the right house- and not many homes offered two carts. The home is located in a really nice part of the community, two doors down from the swimming pool. A late evening walk on the golf cart paths, or throwing a fishing line into the nicely stocked ponds around the property was an evening favorite. There is a little eco-pond behind the house and listening to the frogs on the back porch in the evenings was so peaceful. I was a bit worried about mosquitoes- but sat outside every night and wasn’t bitten a single time. There is SO much to do in the community! The property owners are wonderful! We had a question about the TV remote (technologically challenged), and they immediately responded and helped us figure it out. There were tons of beach toys for the babies to play with at the beach- and no need to pack your own beach chairs- there were PLENTY there. I would absolutely return and select the same home over and over again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
