About this property

Sugar Sand & Sea - Pool, Spa, Private Beach Access

Sugar Sand and Sea is a new listing on VRBO. This home is a beautifully appointed and fully outfitted 6 bedroom, 6.5 bath home that sleeps 16. Situated in the beautiful, exclusive neighborhood of Destiny East, this home offers a private, heated pool and a beach access just steps from the house! Guests will also be allowed access to all the amenities that Destiny East offers including tennis courts, a fitness center, a playground structure, a large community pool, and a private movie theater.

This home has two first floor bedrooms with a king bed in each, for those guests who don't want to climb stairs. On the second floor, you will find three bedrooms with a king bed in each and one bedroom with two bunk beds in it (a full-size bed on the bottom and a twin size bed on top). Kids (and adults!) will enjoy the Pacman gaming console in the bunk room!

In addition, all bedrooms in the home have their own private bathroom (a real plus!).

This home has a spacious open-concept living area, with an outdoor space that also allows for guests to enjoy hanging out by the pool or just soaking in the Florida sunshine.

You'll find a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need for meal prep. You'll also find plenty of towels (both bath and pool/beach), blankets, and pillows. Just pack your suitcase and you'll be set! This home has it all!

We absolutely loved this home. It was comfortable. The beds were comfortable and just felt like home away from home. The pool and jacuzzi were fabulous. We were in the pool first thing in the morning when it was still cool outside, but the warmth of the pool made it so enjoyable. I can't say enough about Linda. This is the best hostess ever! Communication is top notch. She made this trip magical. Thank you Linda.

Great Vacation!

The house was perfect for our extended family. We had 6 children 8 years and younger. They loved the pool and the beach was a short walk from the house. The house had everything we needed, crib, pack and play, even a baby bathtub. The kitchen had all the amenities needed and the outdoor grill and refrigerator were very nice.

Family vacation

This house was perfect for our family! We’ve rented a lot of houses, but this one was tops. It had everything you could possibly need. We didn’t know how important having access to a private beach was until this trip. Linda was wonderful to work with. She always got back to us promptly and made us feel at ease. We will definitely be back!

Great Vacation House

We were very pleased with the house as it was very clean and comfortable. It met all of our family's needs as we all had our own bedroom and bath. There was a crib and pack and play available for our two young grandchildren and the bunk beds were perfect for the older kids. The property manager responded very quickly anytime that we texted and was always helpful. Having the private beach access was a definite plus. If we return to the Destin area we would definitely rent this place again!

Just finished a family trip at Sugar Sand, and Sea! I can’t say enough good things about this beautiful home. First of all, Linda thought of everything! Pool towels, beach equipment, extra linens & pillows, lighted make up mirror in every bathroom, lots of dishes, glasses, pots, and pans, small appliances. There wasn’t one time that we looked for something that wasn’t already there. Everything was organized and clean. The pool & spa was amazing. Very private and lots of places to relax. The private beach entrance was very nice as well. It was an easy 5-6 minute walk from the house and even tho our designated area wasn’t huge, it was never crowded like at the public access points. All the bedrooms had TVs, ceiling fans and their own bathrooms which was great, and the beds were all very comfortable. A/C worked great, a real plus in Florida. Communication with Linda was fast and efficient! She always responded quickly and answered any questions or concerns that we had. Check-in was simple and she notified us two hours earlier to let us know that the house was ready. We have stayed at a lot of vacation homes and our whole family agreed that this is one of our favorites! We will definitely be coming back to Sugar, Sand & Sea the next time we visit Destin.

Fabulous family get together home!

We can't say enough about this property, location and communication with the owner. Everything was as promised with plenty of room for our big group. The kitchen has everything you could ask for and plenty of chairs and umbrellas for the beach, which is a very short walk down the block. They also provided a ton of towels for the pool and beach. They even provided a crib, baby seat, play n pack and more. Our family had a wonderful time and we'll definitely be back! Highly recommend and we'll be back fsure!

Wonderful property

We had a great time during our stay. The house was perfect for our group of three families with teenage kids. Very well-appointed and new. Great location, just a few houses from the beach, and the pool/spa is great. Communication from the owner could not have been better and she was extremely accommodating to us during our stay. Strict HOA rules, but that was made very clear by the owner, and we did not have any problems. Highly recommended!!!

Great stay in Destiny East

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Destin. The house was clean and very well stocked. We cooked most meals during our trip and the kitchen had everything we needed-we we’re pleased with the high quality accommodations. The beach was a very short walk away and the chairs, umbrellas and water sport equipment was perfect. The management company was very responsive to the minor problems we encountered during our stay. Thank you for helping us have a stress-free family vacation!
