Several outstanding restaurants are within walking distance, including one of the most highly regarded in Destin, 'The 790 Cafe' located at The Inn at Crystal Beach and 'Beachwalk Cafe', rated one of Destin's best by Florida Trend Magazine.

Pointe of View is also just a few minutes' drive from all Destin has to offer, including go-kart rentals, dolphin cruises, charter fishing, parasailing, Big Kahuna's Water Park, The Track Family Fun Center, and the Silver Sands Outlet Mall.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop. 

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Exactly what we were looking for

The location and layout were perfect for the team retreat we had planned. We were right on the beach and found everything to be relaxing. The property managers were incredibly responsive and checked in on us regularly. We would consider staying here again; we talked about coming with kids, but there were no tubs, so that was our only concern, although I have a feeling the kids would get through it with a smile.

No issues what so ever. Everything was as stated in add. My opinion only is public access adjacent makes for it to be crowded in front of the house. However I knew that going in. Thank you for a wonderful trip for my group who has fished in the rodeo for over 20 years.

Right on the ocean!

We enjoyed our stay at this beach house! There were 9 of us and we fit very comfortably with room to spare. The weekend we visited was pretty chilly so we didn't have much competition for the beach space. You are directly on the beach so that's amazing! They are not kidding, however, when they say they have "starter items." So if you're staying longer than 3 days you'll probably be needing extra rolls of toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags.

We will stay here again!

We just rented this place over the spring break with family and friends. There are total of 17 of us or 4 families, and everyone enjoyed this location, cleanliness and direct access to the beach. There are a lot of very good place to eat out, Publix grocery store is close by and seafood market is about 10 minutes drive where you can get fresh oysters, fish and shrimps. We grilled them by the grill provided outside. Managed to park 4 cars (3 small/medium sized SUVs and 1 Ford Expedition) :-). Note that the garage is tight. There is parking by the street but easily gets filled up and you can’t park it overnight. Our overall experience is outstanding and we’ll rent this place again in the future!

Beautiful Place!

The location has a beautiful beach view and is in a nice area of town! The house has lots of space and great sleeping arrangements to accommodate a multi-family vacation. The property management staff was friendly and easy to contact for assistance. They resolved issues quickly. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay there again!! As others noted, an area for improvement is the parking. Only 3 spaces are available. An idea for improvement would be for the management company to have pre-planned offsite parking arrangements available to guest. One other area I recommend to improve is the beach chair service. It was first come first serve, and even when arriving early, on multiple days, all the other front row chairs were already reserved for others. It would be great if the unit had pre-reserved front row chairs for each day. Other than that, all was great!!

Destin Vacation

The property was not as clean as we would have liked. There was a lot of sand and dirt on the floor upon arrival. The house was perfect on the beach front. This is a great property for 17 adults with good sleeping accommodations, bathrooms, and spacious eating/living area. A disadvantage to the beach was that apparently the property is only allowed to have 6 spots and the beach that you must rent. Two chairs/umbrella come with the property for the private beach. Our group brought our personal chairs. The beach management company explained that we had to purchase two more sets of chairs in order to stay on the beach. How can you have a house for 18 people and only allow a few beach chairs? This should be advised when booking! The view was gorgeous. Nice decks with beach views. Great location in Destin. Located about 15 min from all restaurants and bars.

Family Vacay

The property was just as it was described, beautiful and clean inside with lots of room for our family of 5. Located right on the beach. We experienced hurricane Sally while on our vacay and the house held up! Yah, there was a leak in the lower bedroom, but we made it work and the maintenance folks were super nice and accommodating. I would recommend paying some attention to the under part of the condo and the walk way to the beach, it was full of trash and could use a rake. If I had a rake I would have done it myself. We did pick up some trash to help out (this was before the hurricane blew in fyi). Two beach chairs and an umbrella were provided daily which was a plus and we had plenty of towels to shower with after being out and about. My husband read the previous reviews on the lower king guest bed being uncomfortable before we got there and hoped the mattress was replaced, it wasn't. Actually the mattress wasn't the issue at all, it is the frame underneath, it had no support so it caused a sagging feel. We showed the maintenance man when he was there for the broken fan blade which they took care of right away and he said he would let the property owner know. No parking issues at all. Small garage fit one vehicle and we had two more spots which was nice for the massage therapists we hired to come onsite while the hurricane blew threw. I felt like we were taken care of and we all had a nice time regardless of the hurricane.

We recently spent 5 nights here, and while the location was perfect, the overall experience did not meet expectations for the price point.On the second day we found a cockroach in the silverware drawer. Management did send someone to spray, but we saw another roach the day before leaving. This bothered us to the point that when we returned home, we unpacked outside out of concern about bringing pests back with us.Parking was also a significant headache. Even though our unit was supposed to have three designated parking spots, our neighbors’ five cars routinely blocked us in. While management contacted them once, nothing changed for the rest of our stay. Luckily we only had one vehicle. Several times we had to back hundreds of feet into the street just to get out.The property itself showed clear signs of neglect. One bathroom door was hanging off its frame, the outdoor grill was barely functional (only 1½ burners worked), and the exterior doors were heavily corroded and difficult to operate.We contacted the rental company, RealJoy Vacations, as instructed to give them a chance to address issues before leaving a review. Unfortunately, their response was dismissive — including calling the roaches “pesky palmetto bugs” — and they didn’t offer any meaningful remedy for the problems we experienced.For a property at this price, we expected a higher standard of cleanliness, maintenance, and customer service.

Almost perfect

The house is beautiful and the location is perfect! A little sand was on the floors when we arrived but other than that it was very clean! Doors are a struggle to open/close but we managed. Only 2 tvs worked and the WiFi was hit or miss but we were there to enjoy the beach, not watch tv! The house has everything you need for a nice stay, it even had several baby gates to put up in front of the stairs to keep the littles from taking a tumble! Highly recommend and will definitely book here again!

Loved it!

We had a group of 16 people from toddlers to grandparents. The house is located right on the beach with direct access. It was so nice being able to go back and forth from the beach to the house easily, especially with little kids. The deck options provide beautiful views of the water and sand. Truly, the views are hard to beat here! The parking is fine, we had two rental vehicles with designated parking so no issues. We had palmetto bugs come visit the first couple of nights we were there. I contacted the rental company and they came right away and took care of it. Very easy to contact and work with. You do share half of the house so sometimes we'd be on the deck at the same time as our neighbors. There is a waist high divider. House was clean and in good condition. The chair situation on the beach gets dicey. You get 2 chairs to use, 2 extra chairs are like 300/week. We opted to get camping chairs (& sand toys) from walmart to use and gave them to the neighbors when we left. Not a big deal.Overall, very happy with our stay and would come back! Thank you for the memorable vacation!
