Thank you so much for sharing & being such kind guests. You guys were amazing! Julie, we absolutely cannot wait to have you and your sweet family come see us again:) Hopefully we have INSPIRED you to come again very soon, Welcome to the VIP Family = Vacation Inspiration Properties:)
In summary- it was a great place to stay. I wish that we could have checked in earlier than 4pm, and we had to be out of the house by 10am. An earlier check in and a later checkout would be nice moving forward. Would stay here again.

Hello,
Thank you so much for taking the time to complete this review. We really appreciate your feedback. We are so happy your group enjoyed their stay at Suzie Q by the Sea. It was great meeting you and helping you celebrate special birthdays here at the beach. Making memories and time together are priceless! We would be glad to help you again anytime. Have a Beach Happy Day! Destin Beach VIP
My group had an amazing time at Susie Q. Just steps away from the beach, close to a Handful of places to eat (walking distance) and the house itself was beautiful. The views from the top floor were amazing. The 2 separate kitchens and multiple rooms in different layouts made everyone I went with, very very happy! If I’m even in the area again, and with a larger group of people, Susie Q will be the place I look at first!

We enjoyed our stay at the house the only problem was the pool was dirty so we had no use of the pool or hot tub. Our first two days there we had some bad luck but we didn’t let it hurt our vacation. We had my handicap dad so the house was wheelchair accessible. Thanks for letting my family stay in your home! Also we bought our own grill because we didn’t want to be fined for there grill cleanliness lmbo ! Great Fourth of July

Hi Lolita. We are so glad your whole family was able to get together to make happy memories at Suzie Q. It's a wonderful place to have everyone join in the fun. I'm glad your dad was able to be there with all of you. Thank you!
WOW!!! Can I tell you how breathtaking this home is!!! Literally a home away from home. This is a truly beautiful spacious home and to top it off near the beach!! Please don’t forget to take the stairs to the roof and enjoy the beautiful view of the beach and surrounding area!
We must make mention that the warm pool and hot jacuzzi was the absolute highlight for the kiddos!!!!
Mary and Greg, we thank you for being readily available during the Thanksgiving holiday.
Till next time!!
Love the Williams, Davis & Vincent Family!

Jacuzzi Issues
Your listing under "About the home" list a Private Pool and Jacuzzi - Never stated there would be an additional charge to use the Jacuzzi. I asked property manager to turn on and he did come and do so- told me there was a charge. I wasn't happy but accepted due to the fact that we all have back issues, and this was taken in consideration when booking that there was a jacuzzi. It worked that night and the next two days it did not work. I called to let him know it was not working, He said yes, I came and turned it off but never asked or told me. He did come and turn back on.
I get a bill in the amount of 375.00 for the use. To me this was not communicated in your listing, and I should not have to pay it however I did log in to pay and there is nowhere for me to pay. Frustrating to say the least.

Hello Julie,
Our commitment to good customer service is very important to us; therefore, we appreciate your feedback and thank you for accepting our phone call to make things right for you. Communication is the key. We were glad to address your concerns & have learned great information to help us make every stay better.
We do offer a discount for returning guests and hope to help you have a wonderful vacation in the future. Destin Beach VIP
We had great weather the entire time we stayed at the house. Which gave excellent views of the beach and beautiful views of sunrises and sunsets. We did not spend any time on the pool as the weather was so nice, that any free time we spend it at the beach. But we were able to enjoy the rest of the house which was amazing. Everything was great and clean when we arrived and the house had enough room to accommodate our entire family and still did not feel like we were crowded. Mary and Destin Beach VIP were amazing. They were very welcoming and made you feel very valued, and very attentive to any need that you might have. I recommend everyone to use Mary and Destin Beach VIP. We had the time of our lives.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that the home provided plenty of space for your family to relax comfortably and that everything met your expectations upon arrival. While the beach can certainly steal the spotlight on perfect weather days, we’re glad you still had the chance to enjoy the home as well.
We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to host you again in the future!
