Most beautiful beach in Destin!

We loved staying here! It’s in the perfect location! The beach is private so it’s not as packed as the other areas of the beach. We’ve been to Destin many times and this trip has been our favorite. Mariah is a gracious hostess and is checking on you the entire time to make sure you’re happy. Can’t wait to be back!!

The only real complaint we have is that the beach access does not have a ramp, and this would be helpful to know in the description. Home was clean and had all the amenities needed. Host is very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Mariah Myers

Host profile image
I am a physical therapist and I have always dreamed of having a beach house! Barefoot Bliss is that dream come true. I have a background in hospitality and have always loved service-oriented jobs. Here’s to everyone enjoying vacation to its fullest!

Why they chose this property

My family and I love to be active on our vacations and relax. Barefoot Bliss offers it all: heated pool all year long to float and soak up the sun; beach within a 3 minute walk to sit out and play in the water or enjoy the calming sound and sight of the waves; dolphin watching; snorkeling and scuba diving; biking or walking to the down town; Capt'n Daves restaurant just across the street; and a tranquil spot to put our feet up at the end of a wonderful day! Destin is the perfect town for families, couples, and single people alike. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Cheers!
