I don't want to go on-and-on, so I'll just say, with a family full of teen & early twenty girls - this gated community, with excellent pool and private beach access all within easy walking distance - was exactly as presented & exactly what we hoped for. We made some great memories here.

We’ve stayed here multiple times for many reasons. The house is updated, very clean, convenient to the pool, and is in a gated community. Location is great! Communication with the host is informative and responsive!

Family time

Beautiful property with incredible location! Spoiled now. We won’t be able to stay anywhere but Destiny By The Sea. Property manager is amazing. This one is a no-brainer. Just book it.

Very pleasant experience

I was there seven weeks. I loved the gated and guarded neighborhood. The house had lots of natural light, and was very comfortable. The full size washer and dryer was a nice amenity. I enjoyed that it was just a short walk to the beach, and that the home was set up very well for traveling with dogs. The homeowner was very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience.

Lovely family moments in a beautiful space !

The house is located across from the pool and just a short walk to the beach so perfect !!Our grandkids loved the toys in the garage and the easy pool access ! The bedrooms and family spaces and kitchen were great ! bathrooms were everywhere and nicely done ! Furnishings were a bit worn and need a clean or replacement ? Kitchen needs new pans - we cooked a lot and were challenged by that . But overall the place was everything we needed and the hosts responded so quickly !

Family 4th Of July Trip

I wish I had left this review sooner! Thinking about upcoming travel reminded me of the best beach house I’ve ever stayed in. This home has everything you need, and it’s all listed in the details. It took the guessing out of ‘ does it have this/that?’. The gated community, location steps from the beach, and a garage full of beach gear were a few of my favorite things. Even on a busy holiday weekend, the private beach wasn’t even half packed. I would suggest sending someone out there early to secure the rental beach chairs and umbrellas. Each day they always had plenty, and we were a family of 15. Fairly priced as well. I would definitely book this home again .
