Thank you for choosing Beach Walk for your vacation! We are so glad you enjoyed the beach house in Destin. You were fantastic guests, and we hope you come back to stay again soon.
Property was as advertised, and everything was in good working order. It was clean, and it had anything we needed for our stay. Pool/outdoor area was a highlight for our family. The beach is a very short walk away from the house. We did get the golf cart for the grandkids and it was nice and worked great. Plenty of beach toys, floats, and chairs make it convenient. Jan was great to work with.

We loved this house for our families' spring break vacation. The location is close to everything. We loved the pool and outdoor space. The rooms were clean and there was plenty of space for 14 of us. Jan was very responsive to our questions.

You were fantastic guest! Come again soon!
Loved everything about this house: bedrooms with attached baths; two living areas; location; and especially the heated pool. Property manager Jan was on top of every detail. Would most definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay. The house and amenities were exactly as described. Jan took time to call me before our trip to walk through details and questions. We will definitely reach out next time we are in Destin.
This house had plenty of room for the 14 of us. Well thought out spaces. It was a couple minute walk to the closest beach access and just a 15 minute walk to the Crab Trap Restaurant and large public beach access. Great location! The pool had to be the best part of the house! Great for the kids and adults. Jan, the host, was very accessible and helpful throughout the booking process and stay. There is the option for a golf cart and to have the pool heated. Something we found out after we booked. Overall, we had a great stay and would stay again!

Perfect place for our family getaway. Loved the huge saltwater pool, outdoor living area, and short walk to the beach. The rental agent was very helpful. It was nice to have pool toys and beach toys, chairs, wagon, etc to use. The outside showers and bathroom was a plus

The house was perfect for family which included 2 adult children, their spouses and grandchildren. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed, especially the kitchen. The pool was large and the pool area perfect with more than enough seating. We loved it. The owner was great, very responsive to any questions and so helpful. Loved our stay.
Such a great house! Our kids swam non stop. We all loved the pool and spa area. Lots of room in the house and comfy beds. I would definitely stay here again!

Our family of 9 get together once a year so we put high priority on location, accommodations and convenience. This home scored 10 on all counts.
Plenty of sleeping options, bathrooms, sitting areas and can not emphasize enough the AMAZING pool/hot tub!
Convenient location to beaches and restaurants. This beach house will keep you coming back…enjoy!

We are glad you enjoyed your vacation at Beach Walk, this is so important to us!
Please come again soon!
We have been staying at different locations and houses annually for the past 10+ years with our children and grandchildren. It was agreed upon by all members of our family that this was the best house ever. More than lived up to expectations. House was immaculate, pool was outstanding and owners helpful and responsive. Great location to beach, dining and activities.

Thank you for the amazing review!
We are thrilled that you had a fantastic vacation, and that Beach Walk is your favorite house after10 years of renting houses! This is a huge compliment!
We look forward to having you back soon!
We are a group of 7 adults who regularly travel and stay at rental homes. The group agreed that this home is one of the best we’ve stayed at.
The outdoor pool area is well thought out and we spent many hours out there.
The layout of the home with 3 masters with en suites on the main level is great for the early risers.
The walk to the beach is quick and easy; we went down nightly for sunset walks!
Highly recommend, we would definitely stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the beach haven. Having our own salt water pool and hot tub was incredible since the ocean was rough and cold. We paid to have the pool heated. There was a problem one day but our hosts had the pool guy come out and we were back in business the next day and we received a credit for the day it wasn’t heated.The neighbors were mostly quiet but not completely but even that didn’t detract from our stay. The home is spacious with plenty of room to spread out.

We’ve been vacationing on the Florida coast for over 20 years. We have found our forever house in which to stay. Everything, and I mean everything, has been thought out so perfectly. It is everything the description indicates - and so much more. The pool and spa are amazing. I wish I could have hugged the owners goodbye before we left. It was a wonderful experience!

Loved it. Asked manager for help and got immediate response. I speak for all that very impressed with the overall inventory of cooking utensils, bath needs and tv,s furniture pieces. Beach two minutes away with numerous things to do all within 30 minute drive. I would not get a cart again because of limitation on roads it ca be driven on. In closing I and my family would definitely go Back again .

Thank you again for choosing us for your stay! We are so glad you enjoyed our home in Destin and we hope to have you come again.
My wife and I were joined by our three adult kids, their spouses and our 7 grandkids (all 9 and under). The house was very spacious and clean. Plenty of living, eating and sleeping space. Location was perfect. Short two minute walk to the beach and a five minute drive to grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations. The area was very safe and clean. The pool was also perfect. Large enough for multiple people with steps and shallow platform for kids to play. Also had an attached jacuzzi. The pool was perfect for young kids and adults. Highly recommend!!! We are planning our next stay.

I think the key points about this home are that it's super close to the beach with a couple different places to access it easily. I had to talk to Jan on a couple occasions through text and phone call and she was quick, kind, and super helpful. The home is rated for 14 people and that's exactly how many we had (4 families) and the home was more than accommodating. && Finally the pool...it was amazing. We literally never left the beach or pool the whole time we were there!! (Other pools in this area were not near as big or as nice.)

This house and area was perfect for our "hurrication" in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida while we awaited getting our power back at home. It was close enough to the beach to walk, close enough to Camilles to walk to breakfast or dinner, and close to Destin Commons to do shopping anytme. Would highly recommend! The house was cute and big enough for our family and visiting friends to have space. Each bedroom had a tv and great assortment of games in the den. The host was quick with replies and I am sure if we would have had any issues during the week, she would have been on top of it. Thanks again Jan for letting us rent!

Thank you so much for the review, you were such easy guests.
Do check us out in 2022 after the renovation and NEW pool..
Location was excellent! Pool was wonderful! Home was not as clean as it should’ve been upon arrival. Towels were very sparse, small, and not lush. We ate all our meals in house and the kitchen was well equipped for preparation and serving. No closet space at all. Bed in King 3 is very uncomfortable and noisy. Double living rooms worked great. Very top bedroom was unusable for our group. Too hard and dangerous to access. That needs to be noted in listing.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at the beach house. Thank you for your feedback. We strive to provide the best service possible and would like to address your concerns. We have forwarded the cleaning concerns about the sand to our cleaning crew, and they have ensured this will never, ever happen again. I understand you had concerns about the bedrooms. Every bedroom has a hotel sized closet, vacation homes typically do not have large walk-in closets. Also, the house is listed as a 5 bedroom, not 6 bedroom. The top floor room you were referring to is not considered a bedroom, and is not represented as such in the property description. It is an extra loft space that has a peek-a-boo view to the gulf. It has a mattress there for extra comfort, and typically teenagers like to use this loft as a hangout getaway. The loft has never been intended to be used as a bedroom, so perhaps there is some misunderstanding there. With regard to the special towels, these are something that some full service resorts provide. We use standard hotel bathroom towels for our guests. In addition, we provide separate pool towels.
Our goal is for you to have a fabulous vacation and to make memories with your family and friends!
Thank you for choosing the beach house, and come again!
