My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and it was such a beautiful little space! The views on the Bay are amazing and it's so peaceful listening to the water. Very convenient for Destin.

Trent! So glad you enjoyed your stay and took in it's amazing views and peacefulness. I look forward to having you back:)
My stay was absolutely amazing! The property was as very clean. Instructions were provided promptly.! I will 100% be booking again! When I first arrived, I was surprised to know that it is multiple units in one house, but don’t let that stop you from booking this amazing place!! I woke up to stunning sunrises every morning. And experienced the most magical sunset! Pure bliss!! as a single traveler, I felt safe insecure on the property! Not to mention my host it’s a 1000 out of 10 from me!! She went above and beyond being available at all times!! Thank you so much for having me!!!!!

It was such a pleasure hosting you Desiree! You were great and love the pictures! Thank you! Please come back anytime.
The best experience I’ve had renting on one these rental apps. I’ve been canceled on 30 minutes prior to check in in the past by other big rental company hosts so I was nervous booking on Vrbo again. I chatted with the host and she was super friendly and made me more comfortable booking knowing I was going to be taken care of. They were quick at responding and shared details on activities to do on rainy days/good sunny days! As for the place? Beautiful. The view was breathtaking and quiet. This was exactly what we needed and more. I would recommend this stay 10/10 !!!

About the host
Hosted by Nancy B.
I’m from Michigan but came to Florida 25 years ago from California where I spent 20 years. I love hosting! I wasn’t sure I would but I just really love it! As a past publisher for a family magazine, the information I gathered from that position I love to share with my guests!
Why they chose this property
This area is so close to Destin and it’s waterfront. Most all waterfront in Destin are condos. I wanted to find something unique and more personal. More private. A place to get away from the crowds but could easily pop over to enjoy.
What makes this property unique
Everything! It’s a rare find in its location and structure. We are taking this old 1980’s home and bringing it back to life!
It sits right on the water and stands alone! Full views over the bay give amazing views and the opportunity to see all kinds of sealife! We normally have dolphins swimming by to eat which is so fascinating.
Inside, I love unique decor and you’ll see this in all my places I have on Airbnb and VRBO.
We are renovating the whole home but right now we have Splash and The Vibe. Completely opposite sides and on different floors. The center of the home is vacant so both are completely private. The only time you might run into another guest is while parking.
