Why the Owner Chose Costa Vista
Location, Location, Location...this central area makes access to San Destin, Seaaside, and Destin. Pool right outside the door with sunny days to work on our tan or cool off after the beach. Walks along the beach or strolling on the sidewalk with ocean breezes. The number of close restaurants, internet coffee shops, and beach make our family time a relaxing time. My family loves having breakfast, lunch, and dinner with the unobstructed views. Gulf Views from every room give a peacefull, calming atmosphere. It seems so quiet at times, then we decide to have everyone over for dinner!
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
We enjoy the pool after a day in the sun at the beach across the street. I seem to find time for a good book, special dinners with family, and catch up on sleep! I wish I had more time here...I am confident you will enjoy your friends and family too!!!
Owner's Map of Costa Vista
I bought this home because of the location of the beach across the street and the views from all the rooms. Dining outside on the balcony with my family is a favorite and walking on the beach! Relaxing by the pool or playing with the kids is always a must while staying here!

We stayed at Costa Vista in early November, Weather was great and everywhere was peaceful that late in the season. The Condo was just as described, very easy to find and Suzette was great to work with. It is just a very, very short walk to the beach. Loads of room, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and clean. Miramar Beach is about 6 miles south of Destin but plenty of stores close by, Publix, Wynn Dixie and a huge WalMart if that grabs you. The stairs give old timers a bit of a workout but then a few brisk walks on the beach gets you back in shape. Will definitely stay there again.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this condo.The beach was very beautiful and walking across the street was no problem.The location was very nice and close enough that we could carry our bags and even chairs that were provided at condo. We loved having all the necessities of home right there, along with being able to cook our on meals. Which we did several days and nights. We enjoyed sitting on balcony watching the waves, especially in the evening. Once again thank you Diane for all your help and Suzette for renting your condo out to us.

Love this place. Mr daughter her husband and children (2) and my grandson and 1 other along with my husband stayed at this wonderful place. I thought at first we might be a little cramped until I saw the place. Very roomy clean and has all the comforts of home. Very close to the beach and some very good views. I took pictures of boats sailing off from the balcony that I loved so much. Being in a popular vacation town I thought it would be loud I was fooled on that also. Very quiet place and friendly people around you. Thank you so much for letting us stay we had a wonderful time. (Also thank you for the coupons listed in the book.)

I didn't have the kids and just remembered how quiet it can be. I walked on the beach every day, had seafood every night, and slept like I had not slept for years. We are coming back and bringing the jetskis with the kids, next time! I will call you so we can reserve this home because it is so peaceful and relaxing.

We absolutely enjoyed our week at this getaway spot. Clean & comfy. Amazing beach is close by. Great restaurants nearby, too. It has all the kitchen/bathroom necessities. The two dogs loved it, too. There's a George Foreman grill, which we used as well. We had to buy some extra toilet paper and such but no big deal. We'll likely rent again!

The location is perfect. Easy, quick walk to the beach, which is just across the street. The condo is very clean & quite. It was the perfect place to relax, but is very close to everything. Popano Joe's is very close and the food is wonderful! Diane is very nice and helpful. We will definately stay here again in the future. We highly recommend this condo. God Bless~Lori

The location was perfect across from the beach and views were captivating from the windows. The balconies were great for breathing in the salt air, eating, and putting up our feet. We have stayed at Costa Vista in the past, but not this unit until this year. We think this townhome has the best decorating and cleanest atmosphere compared to the other one's at Costa Vista. Hope your place is available when we return. The covered parking is convenient for our family, also. Thanks for a great place to stay during our vacation!
