Located directly across the street from the beach, beach access is a short block walk away. In close proximity to all of Destin's attractions, you are only a short drive to Destin Commons Shopping Center, Silver Sands Outlet Mall, Big Kahunas Water Park, The Track Amusement Park, and many fine dining restaurants.

I could not have asked for a more perfect place. This was the most precious gift I could have given my husband. A stay at the Banana Wind, a beautiful house. Spacious enough to allow the gathering of family and many friends. This gathering allowed them to show and express their love. We had a fantastic time in this fabulous house with people from all over as we celebrated my husbands 70th birthday. It was truly an unforgettable weekend. (Copied from written guestbook in the home)

Unforgetable family vacation with our kids, extended families, grandkids, and friends. The scenery is wonderful...reminds me of my childhood birthplace overseas. The house is beautiful and very comfortable. Everything is phenomenal. Destin is a place for getaway. relaxation, and rejuvenating. Thank you for having us, we appreciate the hospitality.

This was an amazing house. Our visit will always be remembered. Everything was provided and everyone at McGee Properties were courteous. We will definitely rent Banana Wind again. Hopefully this is our annual Spring Break house. (Copied from written guestbook in the home)
