Enjoyed a fantastic week in this lovely home! Location was perfect. Close to the beach and everything that Destin has to offer. We own several rental properties and know how difficult it is to exceed our guests expectations. We definitely recommend this house and if we return to Destin we will be staying in this house.

A Shore Thing did not disappoint, as advertised, location to beach with golf cart or vehicle is maybe 2 minutes away. Echelon was quick to answer any questions before our trip, met us at the door upon arriving at the house to go over any questions and to explain a few systems about the house and golf cart. They also texted midweek to assure things were going okay, the best communication I’ve experienced at this type of rental. Would give Echelon and the house a high rating.

The house was great but unfortunately the hot tub did not work for our stay which was unfortunate because it’s one of the main reasons we chose this property. The pool was beautiful and everything was clean. They were response with the hot tub not working but unfortunately it could not be fixed while we were there. Sleeping arrangements were great for the amount of people we had plus a bedroom was not used. The only other thing that i want to mention is we stayed for 3 and were left with 2 dishwasher pods, 4 trash bags and one paper towel roll in the kitchen. It would be nice if they would leave some extra of those items considering the house fits over 20 people. Otherwise everything was beautiful and the house was great!

Thank you so much for the feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the home, pool, and overall stay. We’re sorry the hot tub was unavailable during your visit and understand the disappointment, especially since it was a main reason for choosing the property. We’ll also share your feedback regarding the starter supplies with our team. We truly appreciate you letting us know and hope we can host you again!

The house is beautiful and clean. Beds are comfortable, bathrooms for everyone, heat in the pool was worth the heating cost, bikes and cart were wonderful for getting around. We did wish that some basics were provided, such as extra trash bags, dishwashing soap, laundry soap, enough pool towels for all, and extra blankets- would be willing to pay for these rather than having to go buy. Would absolutely pick this house again for a large group.

Amazing for large families

The house was huge and meticulously maintained. Every detail was thought out and we felt right at home the minute we stepped inside. We had an issue with the 3rd floor AC not working but maintenance was there within the hour to remedy it. Talk about service! We are already planning our next stay here.

Beautiful home and great location

The home was very spacious and had plenty of space for our 3 families that includes 10 children. Heated pool and outdoor space was one of the best parts of the home. Location is very close to beach and golf cart access was a plus. Communication with property manager and any questions or issues was dealt with immediately. Highly recommend.

We rented 53 and 55 Sunfish. Our group had a great time and the set up was perfect. We had a couple small issues come up during our stay but I have to say that the concierge response was almost immediate. I would definitely rent from them again and recommend these house to large groups. Everything in the houses from beds, pillows, furniture and even kitchenware made you feel comfortable like at home. Absolutely great!

Huge house for multiple families

Great location and easy walk to the beach. Beach area for the house is not crowded at all. The 2 golf carts were a plus. The outside pool area was big and accommodated 17 of us! Sliding glass door leading to the pool is still not repaired which makes the powder room off the pool not useable since that is the only exit/entry to the house from the pool. Very receptive to any issues we called about.
