If you are planning a vacation to the Florida Panhandle then you already know that this area boasts the best beaches in America. White, sugary sand, emerald waters and a laid-back atmosphere has made this area one of the most relaxing vacation spots anywhere. Why spend your time in the area in a hotel or condo when you and your family can stay in a beautiful cottage just a few minute walk from the beach?

Kismet is a beautiful home located in Seagrove, Florida (approx. 30 miles east of Destin). Situated in a secluded, private Grove by the Sear neighborhood, Kismet is newly decorated and has been designed to meet the vacation needs of you and your family. Enjoy a short stroll to the beach, hang out in one of the two private pools, sit quietly on the screened front porch, or enjoy the shopping and restaurants of the nearby Seaside and Watercolor resort communities.

The spacious master suite includes a king size bed, a private deck, and a master bath with a large jetted tub and walk-in marble shower. The second guest room has a private bath and queen bed. The third bedroom includes two twin bunk beds and a TV/VCR. Kismet’s kitchen is a chef’s dream, containing all stainless steel appliances, professional quality cookware, convection/conventional oven, and plenty of room to work your magic! Of course, if you prefer to eat out (it IS a vacation after all) the area is full of restaurants catering to every possible taste and price range. When the evening rolls around, gently sway on the porch swing enjoying the gulf breezes or watch a video or DVD on Kismet’s entertainment center.

No matter what you choose to do while on vacation, Kismet will provide a spacious, comfortable refuge that you won’t soon forget. Kismet........it’s meant to be.

  • Kismet is a wonderful place to stay at Seaside, Florida. We loved reading books on the swing in the screened-in porch. The house is surrounded by trees which makes it really peaceful. We also loved visiting the nearby beach and cooking in the well-equipped kitchen. It felt like we were staying at a friend's house. We will definitely be repeat visitors!

  • HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! We have vactioned along 30A for many years, from Rosemary to Greyton Beach. Kismet Cottage is without question our favorite spot. The house is immaculate and no detail went unnoticed. It was evident that the owners are committed to ensuring each guest feels at home while still operating with the organization of a professional property management service. If we had any questions, Nancy was immediately available to assist. We loved it and look forward to spending many more vacations at Kismet Cottage!

  • Nancy & Tim, Our stay here has been delightful. Things we loved: the beach, the neighborhood, the cottage decor, shopping, sunny days and warm temperatures, the master bedroom shower, local resturants. We went on a Sunset Cruise that was great. We would highly recommend Kismet to anyone. We hope to return some day. Thanks so much! Mike & Nancy

  • We absolutely LOVED Kismet Cottage and the neighborhood. Our girls were able to ride their bikes all the time without us feeling worried about them. The house was wonderful and really felt like home. We will definitely stay here again in the future!!

  • We just returned from a week at Kismet and must say that it was one of the best weeks we have ever spent on vacation ! We took five 17 year-olds with us on this venture and they had a blast as well. It was nice knowing the kids could pile up in the jeep and take off and be completely safe. Kismet is a GREAT house with the most comfortable beds in the world ! There was plenty of space with 9 people - no one ever felt crowded. The front porch is the perfect place for your 1st morning cup of coffee ! Make sure you drive down to Deer Lake State Park - the water is beautiful and there were few people, even during the week of the 4th - great waves for boogey boarding and skim boarding! Thanks,Nancy, for a GREAT vacation !! Sharon and David Claxton

  • My wife and I have been staying in Sea Grove area for over 17 years. This past week, June 11-18, was by far the best time we have ever had. (We had our dog die on us last summer) We owe it all to McFarland's and their unbelievable beach house, Kismet. It truly was "Meant To Be" If I could've found a way, we would have never left. I'm sure that the other guest wouldn't mind a couple more hanging out with them. Last summer we had the opportunity to adopted two little girls. A one and three years old. Needless to say, our traditional beach trip of never leaving The Red Bar had to be adjusted a little bit. So we went looking for beach houses and found Kismet. We needed a kid friendly, pet friendly place that we didn’t have to scarifies the things we love about going to Sea Grove. Once again, It Was Meant To Be. Our two girls had a blast. Every morning we got up and went straight to the screened-in front porch. We colored and played until we hit the beach. Our little Chihuahua, Jake, had just as much fun as the girls did. I might have to build a front port at my house back home. Jake keeps wanting to go sit in the sun on it. We hope to make this our yearly beach hang out.

  • We just returned from a week at Kismet. We took our 3 children (10,8, 5) and our little Maltese. We felt so comfortable at Kismet that even the kids started referring to it as "home". Everything about it is perfect...from the comfy, overstuffed furniture to the great video selection. We will return many times.

  • My friends and I have just gone through our first year of college. Just meeting this year, it was our first Spring Break together and Kismet Cottage has made it a memorable one. We grilled out on the back porch and made hamburgers, but not being the best cooks, they looked more like meatballs. The movie collection came in handy as well! Thanks for letting us stay at your house! It's lovely!
