                    First of all, the location is just perfect for a wonderful view of the ocean. The house has wrap around decks on the 2nd and 3rd floor which offers a beautiful view of the sunset, while relaxing with a glass of wine and appetizers. The house is fully stocked with all kitchen utensils, as well as, a washer and dryer. With 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, there is plenty of room for family and friends to be together in comfort. Although we did not use the pool and whirlpool, I'm sure they would be a welcome addition during the warmer weather in Destin. There are many great resturants within walking distance and offer a large selection for dining. You could not find a more beautiful pristine beach. I have never seen such bright white sand and very well maintained beach to relax while taking in the sun. This was truly an outstanding vacation for us, and we will definitely visit Near The Sea again.

                    Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.

                    I just wanted to write and let you know how much we appreciated and enjoyed our stay at your home. It worked out well for the eight of us and my daughter-in-law loved cooking in the large kitchen. We found everything we needed for cooking (I loved some of your dishes especially the crab tray) It was as pictured and the kids loved the heated pool. The accommodations made our celebration of our 40th Anniversary wonderful and I just wanted to tell you so. Hope you have a great 2013. Sincerely,

                    Recommended for: Families with young children.

                    What a beautiful place! We have a very large family and we have been meeting in Destin in the Fall for almost 20 years. We rent 2 to 3 large places to accommodate all of us and of all the places we have rented over the years, this was one of our absolute favorites! You could tell this house had been someone's home and not just built as rental property. All of the features and supplies through out were quality. The owners were always very pleasant to deal with and responsive to questions we had. You also can not beat the price! Proximity to the beach is very important to us since we have lots of little ones in our group. This really is directly across Old 98 from the beach. The 2nd and 3rd floors have beautiful views of the ocean. Thanks for sharing your beautiful place!
