Miramar Beach

We had a wonderful trip with the beach just a five minute walk away. The provided gold cart was wonderful for quick trips to the beach and for hauling gear and kids. The home was clean and comfortable.

Wonderful Holiday Getaway

We stayed at this home for our annual Christmas vacation and we were thankful we did. The house was clean and spacious, the community was quite and picture perfect, the location was minutes away from restaurants, shopping, and the beach. What else could we ask for. My entire family was pleased (pretty hard to do). The only problem we had was having to leave.

Very Nice Get Away

They kids loved the pool, that was the best part for them. We had trouble with the remotes for the upstairs tv in the bunk room it had no remote. Other than that our stay was great and accommodating for kids. Lots of sand toys and floats.

Family Vacation 2024

This is a great place to stay. The house is really nice and the pool is a great addition. After a morning at the beach you can come back and enjoy an afternoon or evening swim in the pool. (We found it was easier to find beach parking before noon.) They provide a golf cart for running back and forth to the beach as well. Any questions (communicating through text with the management team) were answered promptly...even after hours. They were courteous and very helpful with all questions both house related and general beach access questions.

Great home away from home

Loved the property. However in the listing we saw and rented by, said 3 full baths, and there were only 2 full baths and a half bath downstairs, that was a problem because the secondary bath upstairs was tiny. As was the bunk room. Master bedroom was huge as was the bathroom. Very well appointed kitchen. Loved the pool and spent a lot of time pool side.. But the outdoor furniture on the far end of pool Were gross. We wouldn’t sit there. But really small things when you get there and see how awesome everything is.

The downside was gate code never worked the delivery guy let us use his also the pool was dirty though they did call someone to clean it they did wonderfully also the side door to the garage was broken it wouldn't completely close which made the property feel unsafe! But other then that it could of been great if these things was worked out better

Destin Vacation Home

Overall, house is in the perfect location of Destin. It is well updated and was perfect for our family vacation which we have been planning for months. The pros you are close to the ocean many great amenities are provided and it’s very close to the airport. We did unfortunately have some issues during our day, which I’ll elaborate on further. While this should not to deter someone from staying at the house, it should be noted because I believe they need to be corrected. Going forward for future stay. 1. Grill was not clean and full of grease almost engulfed in flames while using first night. We simply turned it on to warm up and it almost started on fire. we reported this immediately. The grill was never cleaned while we were at house. 2. Marijuana and cigarette butts greeted us at front door. I clean this up. The mudroom and garage smelled of smoke. Kitchen needed a cleaning 3. The description on the house states there’s access to a fitness center and that is not true. We were not given access to the clubhouse or fitness center which I believe was a falsified description.. I would encourage the property owner and property management company to update the description on the house for future rentals. Only put in what you’re willing to offer 5. We also found the morning after pill box opened in a drawer next to the bed that my 10-year-old was sleeping in. This tells me that the house was not completely cleaned from the prior guests and drawers were not open
