The Lily Pad rental was very comfortable, roomy and enjoyable! We loved the pool and deck areas as well as the upstairs game room. The kitchen was up to date with everything available to cook a meal (or not!) and the countertops are beautiful! The beds were all very comfortable and the sheets were especially nice. The house was clean,(I am very picky about floors and this is the first house in many years that I didn't have to clean the floors upon arrival)! I fully recommend the Lily Pad. Our family truly hated for the week to end. Thank you, Kirby for a great vacation rental!

My family and i just spent a wonderful vacation week at the "Lily Pad" It was everything we had hoped for and much more. The pool was beautiful and warm just the perfect temp, the houses were beautiful and equipped with everything you need to make you feel right at home. We are already looking forward to our next visit to the area and will expect to spend it at the "Lily Pad" I have recommended this property to all my friends and the rest of my family. Thanks to Shelby for all the helpful information look forward to the next time

This year was our fifth consecutive year at the Lily Pad and we are already booked for next year!! If you are looking for the perfect Destin beach house, look no further because you have found it. The house is so well maintained. Every year we arrive to find something new and updated. I don't think you will find a better stocked kitchen which is great for us because we cook everynight. The cabana house is perfect for our teenage group that likes to stay up all night long. The game room in the main house has provided many hours of entertainment through the years. We really love having our own pool and jacuzzi and the deck and porch area is lovely. We typically spend our day at the beach and our early evening at the pool. You couldn't ask for a more perfect location. And last, but certainly not least, you couldn't ask for a better owner. Kirby is the best!!! He will make you feel like you are in your own home while staying in his. Thanks for all the wonderful years Kirby, and we are looking forward to many more to come.

My 2nd year to stay at the Lily Pad, and we once again were not disappointed. The house has virtually everything you need for a week away from home, but to feel like home. We think the combination of the pool/jacuzzi and the covered deck provides a great "get together" point after a day at the beach, shopping or golf. Actually, one day we simply relaxed there all day, then cooked up a nice dinner that evening and enjoyed it all on the deck. Gameroom upstairs was fabulous for both kids and adults. On Friday evening, we all decided that we're coming back again next year...same time, same place.

Being a Radiation Therapist, I know and deal with the devastating effects Cancer has on my patients and their families on a dialy basis. The toll, emotionally and financially is enourmas. Long hours and patient load was also takeing its toll on me. I needed a break NOW! I found that much needed R & R at the Lilly Pad. Seven days of peace!! Lots of sleep and quiet times in the whirlpool while the kids were at the beach was just what the doctor ordered. Thanks Kirby....enjoy the spice!!

It was well worth the 40-hr round trip for me to spend the time with my extended family in this lovely, spacious vacation property. The owners are marvelous people who responded positively to our needs.

The photos didn't do justice for the LILLY PAD. We had our extended family Vacation here with all our grown children & grand kids. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed every part of it. The pool,game room,great sheets on the king beds, covered patios (up & down) we even brought a long folding table that we were able to use while grilling and later taking it upstairs to have a sunset dinner on the outside patio. The wagon was awesome for our gang to haul everything to the beach. The only down sound for my group were the ones that had the guest house. they felt a little excluded from the family having to leave the house to go to theirs since the house doesn't open right onto the pool area. Kirby is a awesome person to deal with, always right there for help! We brought our own bikes and rode scenic 98 every morning as well as the beach and shopping.. everything was so close! We even had a surprise that we will cherish forever. Our daughter was purposed to on the beach during family photos! :) The Lilly Pad will always be remembered!! Thanks Kirby!!

Our stay at the Lily Pad was fantastic from June 4-10, 2011. It was our first extended family vacation with married children and grandkids. The houses were spacious with plenty os get-away spaces and sleeping accomodations. Our favorite part was the walk to the beach. Almost like our own mini parade with the beach wagon. Thank you again for your care and availability. We would highly recommend the Lily Pad!

This rental and rental experience was A+. Our group felt right at home here and had a wonderful time. We especially enjoyed all the sunny deck space and the short, pretty walk to the beach. This review is long overdue, but thank you Kirby for accommodating us so well; this property was perfect and will not be forgotten!

The Lily Pad- Destin Florida (Amazing Place to Stay!)

We rented the Lily Pad for the Labor Day weekend (9-3-10 - 9-6-10), and it is definitely an Amazing place to stay. We could have not asked for more. The main house is very nicely furnished with lots of space. The Lily pad also offers an additional cabana which is also nicely furnished with an additional 2/bedrooms, bath, living room and a second kitchen. It was one of the best vacations we have had. Kirby is a very generous owner. The Beach to the Emerald Teal waters is just a short walking distance and the walk is very enjoyable. The pool was awesome and a very nice size. The secluded area between the main home and the cabana is just perfect. Ideal for just hanging out in the pool and relaxing on the comfortable covered patio opened nicely to the pool. We didn’t want to leave the house! We highly recommend the Lily Pad to anyone looking for a great place to stay. It is also convenient to get to; Restaurants, Wal-mart and the outlets for a great shopping experience. I would definitely want to stay here again. Thanks Kirby! You guys are awesome!
